Rhiann's star has risen to shine brightly throughout House Marka Ragnos, the shining exemplar of a Journeyman that I would wish any unit in the Brotherhood to have. Not only is she a consistent presence in IRC and one of our more active members there, she's also got a stellar record of competitions that many of our members haven't matched, especially in such a short time; out of the 12 competitions she's participated in, she's placed in six of them. That's a brilliant success rate; an award for every second competition is no small feat, especially for a Journeyman member of the Brotherhood.

Rhiann has proven herself to be one of our more active gamers. Not only has she amassed an incredible 133 Clusters of Fire solely through playing Pazaak (and as such has earned a Rank III in the GMRG), she's taken out 3rd place in the Gorefest competition for January, a feat not many people can claim at such an early rank. On top of this, she's written a brilliant character fiction that has brought us some insight to her character, as well as submitted some great competition fiction that paints just how good of a writer she really is. This balance of opposing skills, combined with her activity, has made her one of the greatest assets that House Marka Ragnos has. This has also been noted by our Quaestor, Teu, and awarded a Dark Cross for not only her activity but her assistance in work on one of our House wiki pages.

As such, I proudly request that Rhiann Baenre be promoted to the rank of Jedi Hunter. You're only one step away - keep working hard and you'll reach Dark Jedi Knight soon. Congratulations!

Protector Seridan has participated admirably in their journey in acquiring more power within House Odan-Urr. Seridan has participated in over five competitions, earned a Merit Medal, reached Shadow Academy Society Rank Two, stayed at Protector for over two weeks, completed his Core Exam, as well as being a constructive member of our Forums, with all these things considered, I feel that Seridan has more than achieve the greatness required for the next rank. Congrats Seridan!

To Whom It May Concern: Jedi Hunter Lucyeth has officially come to the end of his Knight trials standing tall and proud. It has been a most excellent experience to watch him step up as a member of this house and show everyone, new and old alike how to be an awesome active member. Since his field promotion from the Dark Crusade back in November, I have seen even more activity from this active young Sith.

Most recently I spent a great deal of time working with Lucyeth on the ACC qualifications, where not only has he become the only Journeyman in Scholae Palatinae to qualify, but is also now participating in the Beta testing of the system, both within the tournament and out. Lucyeth has a good head on his shoulders and is a quick learner, especially for a system that tends to throw off even the most active of members. This is a great example for all HSP members, as many more still need to take the steps to even get qualified for the ACC, let alone compete in it.

Lucyeth shines in more than just actively pursuing the new and different systems in the club. He is a staple participant in competitions as well. From the Dark Crusade all the way up to things including the Looking Home Campaign, and VOICE competitions, Lucyeth is there. His level of active participation is what helps drive HSP toward excellence. These efforts have paid off for him as well, earning him several Merit and Crescent awards. He is also an active participant in the Shadow Academy, reaching rank IV in the new society and earning three mavens in the process.

These efforts have paid off in other ways too. He has completed a lengthy personal fiction as part of his trials and has completed a most excellent character Wikipedia page. Beyond this he has also helped the HSP Summit with the task of finding and uploading pictures to several important Scholae related pages. This was a major help to our efforts to improve our wiki pages, and helped bring even more life to the planets where HSP resides.

Lucyeth has been slaying it these past 5 months he has been a member of the club. Without a doubt he has shown himself to be one of the most capable Journeymen HSP has seen in a long time. There is no doubt in my mind that he is ready for the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.

To Lucyeth, let me just add my congratulations at this accomplishment. Drinks are on you.

Lord Idris Adenn, 2014-02-08 23:41:37 UTC

Lucyeth is definitely one of the pillars of the Imperial House. He has been very active in last months, participating in numerous competitions and passing numerous SA courses, Thanks to his hard work and dedication, he has earned five Crescents, two Dark Crosses and three Dark Mavens. His Shadow Academy activity made him reach IV rank in the Shadow Academy Society. Also, Lucyeth has provided several quality images to several HSP Wiki articles as his contribution to the House.

It is clearly visible that Lucyeth is more than ready to become a fully trained Dark Jedi Knight. He has not only completed all necessary tasks, but he has also proved himself to be a mature, steady and quickly learning person. It is the high time that Lucyeth should start working on his promotion to the noble group of Equites of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, as he is capable of moving beyond the Knighthood.

Adept Xantros, 2014-02-07 08:27:07 UTC

I have had the honour of mentoring Lucyeth since he joined five months ago. The DB can be a daunting place for new recruits, but Lucyeth took it all in his stride. It has been an absolute pleasure to see him go from strength to strength in that time.

One of Scholae Palatinae's most prominent members Lucyeth has participated in a total of 13 competitions, earning five Crescents in the process. Furthermore, he has been awarded two Dark Crosses for his consistent drive and exemplary attitude. He has passed both leadership SA courses with exceptionally high marks, as well as a plethora of other courses, gaining Mavens in flight, philosophy, and general history in the process and reaching rank IV in the new SA society.

His fictions continue to take the reader on wondrous adventures across the galaxy and he recently completed an outstanding 3000 word piece that drew me in from start to finish. When asked to help with a project to update the House's wiki pages Lucyeth went above and beyond our expectations, improving them with a range of images. His own wiki page continues to flourish, being improved to an exceptionally high quality with the approval of the wiki tribune. Lucyeth has also taken a keen interest in the ACC where he is one of only a handful of Scholae members qualified to participate and has signed up to participate in the ACC tournament.

Lucyeth, welcome to knighthood. Everything you've learnt will be passed on to all that you mentor, and I am sure you will learn as much from them as I have from you. You are a wonderful friend and I am very proud of you.

Koryn Palpatine Thraagus, 2014-02-08 12:15:55 UTC

I am honored to add on a recommendation on behalf of Lucyeth. Unlike many of our members (including me) did when they were journeymen, he hasn't picked a single activity to try and excel in, but he has continued to grow as a member by branching out into a variety of activities including the Shadow Academy Society and the ACC. It is his endeavor into the ACC that showed the most about his commitment to the Dark Brotherhood as he had to take his qualification exam over again. Instead of putting it off for a month or two, he immediately went to work to fix his errors and try to pass his qualification. I am proud to have him as a member of my battle team, and I look forward to watching him become a strong member of both Scholae and the Brotherhood.
