Since coming on board as BTL of the Disciples of Dreypa, Marduss has been a great, active communicator with not only myself and my Aedile, but more importantly with the members of his battleteam. Marduss has been able to push and poke his journeymen to meet their promotion requirements, many of whom are extremely busy with real life. In fact, he was able to get responses out of people who were previously believed were "gone" from the DJB and had tried to contact multiple times. On top of that Marduss has a very personal touch when dealing with his members, and tries to carve out a path for them that is suitable to what they enjoy the most doing. As a relatively new member himself, Marduss has been able to also been able to reflect his own experiences onto others, both new and veteran, alike. All of this is accomplished while continuing to complete his own promotion requirements as a journeymen. Needless to say, the Summit of Plagueis in conjunction with the MAA believe firmly that these actions are suitable for a Summit task: a task that goes well above and beyond what is expected of any normal journeyman, and executing it with extreme excellence.

On top of his extraordinary Summit task, Marduss recently received an Anteian Cross for his activity in the "Sphere of Influence" Plagueis clan feud, helping to push House Ajunta Pall towards victory. His activity in Sphere of Influence also quickly racked up competition participation, placing in several events including the amount required for his promotion. Marduss also completely ran, under the watch and assistance of the Voice and myself, the "A New Era of Monsters" competition which was wildly successful bumping it up in crescents and also earning Clusters of Ice from the Voice's office for all the writing submissions. Marduss has also achieved much in the way of the Shadow Academy: getting to rank IV, amassing numerous passed courses, several degrees, and just as importantly two of the leadership courses! Finally, Marduss has provided fiction for Plagueis by completing, separately, both a 1,500 word and 3,000 word fictions benefiting the unit as a whole!

But no longer will Marduss be a journeymen himself; I am happy and proud to recommend Marduss for his promotion to Dark Jedi Knight.

The final rung on the Journeyman ladder, Dark Jedi Knight, is effectively an acknowledgement that the member is ready to take the training wheels off. As the promotion requirements get more detailed, and less well-defined, a member needs to be personally motivated as well as show a sustained dedication to the club to reach that bar. Marduss has clearly reached that level. Quite often, the infamous "Summit Task" we give to Jedi Hunters is something of little real significance. Edit this wiki article, write up some bios for NPCs for the Clan. Marduss tackled the responsibility of helping his fellow Journeyman. Without his direct involvement, Plagueis would be several members smaller. Thanks to his hard work, and constant communication, Clan Plagueis, and the Brotherhood have a few more active members than we would otherwise. If that (in addition to completing his other requirements) isn't warranting promotion to DJK, I don't know what is.

Arron Saylos has been around Scholae Palatinae for over a year, finding his way around and figuring out what type of member he wants to be. He's taken the Krath Core and figured out what that means, and started to take part in various competitions as he has found time. Recently he has stepped up, and with a character sheet that starts to scratch the surface of what he wants to do, he headed to the ACC and got qualified ready to take his Dark Jedi into action. Given that through all he has accomplished so far in the DJB, I want to recommend him for promotion to Guardian, get another re-write in on his character sheet with some extra powers before he dives in. It's been great discussing some character building ideas, and I look forward to further development and seeing where things go. As both his Master, and Aedile, I recommend Arron Saylos for promotion to Guardian. Congratulations my friend, and good luck on the next steps.

Rhaegon has been a wonderful Apprentice. He continually comes to me with any questions he has or asking what the best next step in his career with the Brotherhood may be. When he's given a task he does not hesitate to get it done quickly, without sacrifice of quality. It has been a pleasure to see new blood like his rise in the ranks and, even more so, have the pleasure of being able to guide him. It is a great honor that I can recommend he be raised to the Rank of Jedi Hunter. Well done my Apprentice.

Since his last promotion on 7/2/14, Rhaegon has: Won 2 CrE, 1 CrS, and a Dark Cross. I'd like to reference the Dark Cross personally as I gave it to him. He was awarded it for service to the Clan for performing a very fast (within hours) tally of the post count, posters, and word count on our last Clan development runon so we could get the Clusters of Ice out quickly. I had family in town and could not get to it right away, so I put out a request for someone looking for service work and Rhaegon stepped up and knocked it out. He also designed and co-organized A Date With Darkness competition. His entry in the Ruins of the Kwi comp took second and the information was used to help develop our next locale for the ongoing story arc. He took and passed Leadership studies and fundamentals. He changed his order from Sith to Krath as part of finding his own voice as a character to go with his scholarly background direction. Rhaegon is new to the Clan, and we are very happy to have him here and see him grow. To wit, according to his Master and the Brotherhood guidelines he deserves to be elevated forthwith.

Rhae has taken a step further in his trials to become a Dark Jedi Knight. He has completed the tasks set before him so that he may progress. But he has also been very active in his Apprenticeship as well, submitting and even co-organizing for competitions. He has also fallen to the Sith from the Krath. Including doing work for the summit on his own, he has done all that he must. He earned his next set of trials.
