I am honoured to be recommending Meleu for his elevation into the rank of the Equites. It takes time, dedication and real effort to take the step up. All of which Meleu has proven since his last promotion, being heavily active and driven helping not only the Clan and House but serving inside of Dark Forge and helping it grow and find its own feet with the team Leader. Constantly filling my inbox with medals, ideas and anything else.

Since the last six months he has been tearing up the gaming scene earning himself an impressive 127 Clusters of Fire. Gaming with others inside of the Brotherhood helping those that need experience inside of ToR. Though he moves from gaming and still continues to participate in any competitions available to him, in total since his last elevation Meleu has already participated in 25 competitions. Threw his hard work and effort that he has put in to this the competition he has earned himself: one Crescent with Ruby Star, one Crescent with Sapphire Star, two Crescents with Amethyst Star, one Crescent with Topaz Star and six Crescents with Emerald Star. Showing his determination to give his all to competitions has been something Meleu has always been doing since joining the Brotherhood.

On Top of the medals and competitions we have seen Meleu do various other bits and pieces. This has taken the form of him expanding his knowledge of not only the Brotherhood and the SW Universe but also programs as well in the form of completing the following Shadow Academy Courses: Dark Maven - Philosophy, Writing, Galactic History, Web Design as well as a Dark Savant in Writing and Philosophy. In total achieving the amazing amount of 31 Shadow Academy exams completed as well. As well as this we have seen Meleu do a lot of writing in the form of run-ons, fictions and ACC taking home a total of 5 Clusters of Ice and completing three ACC Matches in this time. Proving his adaptability and willingness to take part in everything that the Brotherhood has to offer.

Earning himself two Dark Crosses, an impressive 7 Scrolls of Foundation, One Seal of the Master for Marduss and one Legion of the Scholar showing the impressive amount he has collected over his time. He has also been hugely involved in wiki work recently taking the time to expand on wiki pages helping these pages that he has had a part in and helped edit are as follows: Agenor, Apex Brigade Arcona Army Corps, Arcona Expeditionary Force, Arcona Navy Corps, Arcona Starfighter Corps, Armored Interface Craft-4 - Arcona, B-51 B-Wing - Arcona as well as another Ten more Wiki pages. That is a huge effort on his behalf as well as a huge time consuming project that he has undertook. Never complaining never asking anything just continuing the work silently. Setting an example to those around him and working with others to get them involved in the wiki project.

Thank you for all of your hard work Meleu, you have set an example of everything a member of this club should aspire to. It has been a pleasure to work with you and have you inside of House Galeres and Clan Arcona. Congratulations on your elevation to the rank of Sith Warrior and I look forward to seeing what you do in the future.

Quaestor of House Galeres

Meleu is one of the members who I’ve been dying to recommend for a promotion, and I’m thrilled to be doing so today. I’ve worked extensively with him in the past month on major updates to Clan Arcona’s wiki dominion, and I turned leadership of the project over to him months ago. He has consistently brought fresh ideas, new organization, and a zeal for improvement that is unmatched elsewhere. He has created a spreadsheet with each of Arcona’s 300+ articles, the current status and upcoming edits on each, and has built a team for carrying out the edits. He has tackled a gargantuan task fearlessly, and while there is still work to be done, there is no doubt in my mind that Meleu is the man to lead us forward.

He’s spent four months as Magistrate to the Headmaster, where he has diligently carried out his duties and brought his trademark efficiency to that office. And prior to that, he spent a few weeks leading the Apostles of Syn before transferring to Clan Arcona. Meleu has demonstrated himself to be more than capable of leadership, and he’s one of the most prized prospects in our farm system, to borrow a phrase from the baseball world. He’s one to watch, without a doubt.

Meleu, thank you for your endless litany of contributions to Arcona since joining us, and congratulations on this promotion!

There’s plenty of endless tasks, jobs and odd ends that are scattered around the DJB, and all of them have Meleu’s name in it. Since stepping up to quickly replace my former XO in the Sergeant office, Meleu has been an imposing and supportive shoulder to lean on. In the 14 days that i’ve worked with him, he has constructed the wiki with myself to an astonishing level. His personality with other members shows how much of a great leader that he will be one day and the constant support received through his Shadow Academy position is valiant. Since Meleu joined the team, his consistency within the brotherhood has not faltered. Earning a Crescent of the Emerald star and a Crescent of the Sapphire star along with keeping his professional duties to high standards. While in Operation: Figurehead, his diligence and compassionate focus for success and activity brought him to stand with giants at 3rd place in the overall competition; not an easy feat for a JM 8. I feel honoured to be one of the first people in welcoming Meleu into the Equite level and I wish him well in his future career with us.

Congratulations on the promotion good sir. Eyes on the horizon.

Argon Ravenblack, you have successfully passed the Test of Lore and earned the rank of Apprentice. While you may currently be on a shuttle to House Scholae Palatinae, I will continue to follow your progress with great interest.

Lord Dacien Victae, 2014-09-19 08:19:13 UTC

Shujiru Raunien, you continue to impress. You're growing more competent each day and you will surely rival the Dark Council when the time is right. You have met the requirements for promotion, and a recommendation has be filed. Your accomplishments include:

• Begin to outline character history for eventual posting on the Brotherhood Wiki, as approved by House leadership or Master
• Have an approved character sheet on record
• Logon to IRC and visit Clan channel
• Participate in 3 competitions

I will continue to watch your progress, Shujiru Raunien, but my direct intervention in your promotions must come to an end.

You will go far within this Brotherhood.

May the Force guide you, Protector,

Kooks, what can I say. You have been a powerhouse of activity. Consistently participating in many DJB competitions and joining in many DJB gaming platforms. This can be seen be the amount of CFs & POBs earned lately. You have successfully ran a DJB wide competition in which many submitted, earned 27 CFs and a POB this month alone, and it's only half way into the month. Also earned a steel cross & many other crescents & competed in many competitions. You've successfully completed all requirements for DJK, but what has impressed me most is that I barely had to guide you, you wanted this and went out and earned it for yourself. I'm honestly really excited as I can see you have a bright future ahead in the DJB and Taldryan.

Congrats

Armags C'Hiesa, 2014-09-16 02:10:14 UTC

Kooks, while the site tells me that you've fulfilled all of your DJK obligations, it is readily apparent to anyone inside of Taldryan that this promotion is long over due. Your activity level is amazing, participating in every competition available to you, running a fun and engaging DB-Wide competition that had a large number of submissions. While I haven't your QUA, I am very excited to have you as member and work with you going forward. Congratulations Kooks.

Kooks is a delightful Journeyman. In addition to completing the written guidelines for promotion to Dark Jedi Knight (including his Taldryan projects - collating, combining, and ultimately summarizing Taldryan ACC posts from the earlier rounds of the Fading Light tournament - making the job of recognizing the efforts for Taldryan's summit much easier), Kooks has earned himself two merit medals for his efforts, 6 crescents, and over 200 Clusters of Fire. He has also competed in 28 different competitions.

Kooks, you're a wonderful member - but now your time with the help of Howie pestering is done. You're a gamer, but I know you'll do other things too. You're part of the future of Taldryan, and for the first time in years? That future is looking bright. Don't screw it up :P
