Supreme Chancellor Ood Bnar
Old Rank
Equite 3
New Rank
Equite 4
Requested by
Lord Dacien Victae
Primary reason

Ood gets things done. As Headmaster, I often find myself pulled in twelve different directions at the same time, and I rely on him to tackle projects that I can’t always devote my full energy to. He is incredibly diligent, reliable, and motivated, which shows in his rapid turnaround: in the span of just a few hours he coded eight new history courses into Markdown, uploaded them to the website, created over eighty new exam questions, and put up with my nitpicking. He also has impressive staying power. As a member of the Shadow Academy staff for a decade, he has graded more than 1,000 exams, written and edited dozens of courses, dealt with the endless personnel management apparatus that is the Shadow Academy, and still goes at it with a zeal that’s truly unrivaled.

To a large extent, Ood is the embodiment of the Shadow Academy’s institutional knowledge. His career has spanned the majority of post-Exodus Headmasters, and he has already served two Headmasters in his fourteen months as Praetor. He has helped set policy, select and shepherd projects, and pushed the staff to keep an unprecedented 24-hour turnaround time on exam grading. I would hard pressed to run this office as efficiently as it currently runs without him at my side.

Ood, you have made an indelible mark on the Shadow Academy. Congratulations!

Lord Dacien Victae, 2014-08-14 17:35:30 UTC
Additional reasons

I think I have described Ood as a 'dog with a bone' numerous times now. In fact that is likely the briefing I gave Dacien when he took over as Headmaster. that description reigns true to this day. If you give Ood a task, you can rest assured that he will come through. He won't rest until he, and those he has recruited to help, have delivered the final result.

While I was Headmaster and had to focus on internal reports, and the Dark Crusade, and "the bigger picture," Ood was the person with his feet on the ground, doing the real work and keeping the Shadow Academy on the straight and narrow.

From everything I have seen, and heard from Dacien, Ood has not wavered in his devotion to the brotherhood nor the academy.

Ood is one of the primary reasons our new Journeymen have awesome courses dedicated to helping get them up to speed. Why old courses are being dusted off and refurbished. Why the Shadow Academy continues to thrive.

Master Windos, 2014-08-14 17:30:58 UTC

Ood is ruthless when it comes to getting things done. He possesses a single-minded, lazer-like focus that few possess and even fewer can actually take advantage of. For Ood, there are no excuses and no walls in achieving his objective. And for the last year and eight months since the last time I wrote something about Ood, his objective has been the Shadow Academy. His passion for it stretches the imagination and becomes contagious to anyone who gets to work in the office with him. Most recently, I had to go through the process of creating my first Shadow Academy Exam. During that time, Ood was helpful and resourceful. As a member of Clan Arcona, he has recently stepped up in helping to mentor one of our newest Battleteam Leaders (Lexiconus) and has been, per usual, talkative on IRC when present.

Congrats Ood, and keep up the good work.

Legend Wally, 2014-08-14 17:31:26 UTC

Ood and I go back a ways to his time as another Eclectic Pedagogue and Professor during my Headmaster days, so when I returned to the Brotherhood to not only find him still around but Praetor to the Headmaster I was impressed and excited. He has done nothing except impress me since. I rejoined the SA staff as a Professor and immediately started working with Ood on ideas to revamp the Department of History. That project has been a long time coming, but once the notes were written Ood was there to mark them up. Once the exams were crafted Ood was there to formalize them and give feedback. He has been an integral step to the revamp process of the History Department, essentially solely responsible for actually putting the courses online, and I’m sure my experience extends to the vast audits Bubba has been conducting. This work alone is reward-worthy, so when I think about how it extends to the entire Shadow Academy...over the past year he has been Praetor, this promotion is easy to fathom. Thank you for being as hard a worker the DJB and SA can ask for, Ood. Congratulations!

Zanet Xox, 2014-08-14 17:31:55 UTC

In my time so far as M:HM, it has been a pleasure to work with and get to know Ood, and I am definitely happy to join with the rest in offering my recommendation for his long-deserved promotion to EQ4. As Praetor, Ood excels in the background minutiae that is so absolutely vital to running the Shadow Academy, from coding to clerical work. It’s mostly unnoticed outside the SA staff - after all, the SA continues chugging along like a finely-oiled machine - but Ood is one of those that keeps it that way, and certainly deserves praise (and this promotion!) for that. Additionally, I doubt there are very many others with the breadth of knowledge regarding the SA that he has, and for that he is a vital resource for junior leaders like me to go to for anything Academy-related. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us and continue to do for us, Ood!

Adept Farrin Xies Tarentae, 2014-08-14 17:32:18 UTC

Ood's final Equite promotion is extremely overdue. He deserves the promotion for his work in the Shadow Academy alone. During the six months that I have worked with him, Ood has been terrific at teaching me everything I need to know about the Academy and I'm sure that many others have shared similar experiences as he has been working for the Academy since 2006 with no break in between. In his long and fine career in the Brotherhood he has served almost every role that one can be appointed in without being seated on the Dark Council itself. He has experiences as a Docent, Professor and Praetor to the Headmaster as well as being a Rollmaster, Aedile, Quaestor and Proconsul of numerous Clans and Houses. Hidden under his countless accolades and numerous shinies lies his brilliant personality and odd humour. Ood is not just someone who you can rely on to get a job done, but also to socialise and talk with. He has definitely served the Brotherhood in its entirety and I'm sure he will continue to contribute for many years to come.

Primary reason

To whom it may concern: Delak Krennel continues to be a bastion of awesome activity here in Scholae Palatinae. Today he hit is 21 day mark at the rank of Guardian and as well, successfully completed his tasks for a promotion to Jedi Hunter. Delak is a constant presence in HSP channel on IRC and very engaging with fellow clubmates. He actively pursues avenues of activity, and his work shows that diligent effort. For example, recently in the LHC - Caina event, Delak was a active force in his teams Run-on, himself completing 4 posts, and pushing his team to finish a most excellent story. His total competition participation is now up to 5, including other LHC competitions like Race to Calynos and A Lab built of Ice.

But thats not all he does, I have seen him actively finding people to participate in gaming online on many an occasion. To date, he has earned 123 Clusters of Fire for his tremendous efforts in gaming. This has helped secure him the GMRG Rank 3 as well. He has completed the Leadership Reports exam, something I hope helps him out as he was selected to be Dante's Battleteam Sergeant, together now working to improve the great team Dorimad Sol. He has also completed a 1000 word fiction tying in his coming to the DJB from the EH and how it is to work with the "son" of Angelo Dante.

All of his great activity has also netted him 4 Dark Cross (a few of which were from his very old account here) which were very well earned. I am absolutely thrilled to recommend his promotion to Jedi Hunter and look forward to seeing what more awesome stuff he brings to the club. Drinks are on you Delak!

Grandmother Idris Adenn, 2014-08-13 23:19:49 UTC
Additional reasons

Since his coming to Scholae Palatinae, Delak has been an outstanding addition to the House, and I have been honored to serve as his master and team leader over the past couple of months.

Delak has completed all requirements as laid out by the Dark Council including reaching GMRG level 3, 100+ Clusters of Fire, Level 2 in the SA society, three of the four leadership courses, a 1k+ word fiction detailing his arrival to Scholae Palatinae, received a merit award of a Dark Cross for his activities, participated in five competitions, and has maintained a high level of IRC activity.

His service in leadership has already begun with his being named the Sergeant of Dorimad Sol where he will continue to hone his leadership and management skills. Delak is currently running two competitions, and he has already planned on running additional competitions as he continues his duties as my second in command.

It has been a great experience working with an old friend from the ancient times, and I hope that he will continue to enjoy his return to the Brotherhood for years to come.

General Kell Palpatine Dante, 2014-08-13 22:36:44 UTC

I can't say I was surprised to see a request to recommend Delak Krennel for Jedi Hunter. His experience and skills are already there. 3 weeks as a Guardian, constantly building up the community of Scholae Palatinae with his presence, engaging in the ongoing story and participating in competitions, developing a fictional identity for his character, and the welcomed gaming presence.

I am more than happy to recommend him for a promotion to Jedi Hunter, so he can start on his journey under his Master to take the next steps. I look forward to the great accomplishments in the future and all the ways he will help make our House better. Congratulations.
