Orv Dessrx entered the Dark Brotherhood with auspicious tidings, quickly setting forth to learn what it is that we do and lending his own considerable talents to assist those in need. Always cheerful, humorous and engaging, Orv never hesitates to toss out a pearl of wisdom to any that are eager to benefit from his knowledge or his insight. In addition to the numerous accomplishments outlined below, Orv has also recently agreed to take on the rather involved task of streamlining and revising the Outer Rim Wars’ reporting process via an online interface. Early glimpses of this show the same promise and attention to detail that he brings to everything that he does.

I am also truly honored to submit this promotion request on behalf of his Master and his Battleteam Leader. I’m quite certain that Orv is deserving of it.

Since his last promotion Orv has started or completed the following: Set up the Feud website, worked on a Galeres website, Created a sub-site service, constructed a plugin for accessing DB services in the sub-site service, did a character picture for me, completed the Leadership Applications Exam, HTML Basics Exam, Force Philosophy Exam and Runon Stories Exam. He sent in a Feud GFX entry and began 3 Feud ACC battles.

Orv has added a lot to the Qel-Droma phyle and is a significant presence in the ongoing clan feud. In my opinion this level of activity is above and beyond the commitment or capabilities of most members and should be recognized.

As my Apprentice, I am terribly biased, but I truly believe Orv deserves his promotion, simply because he is well, Orv. He is insanely active, taking part in any and all competitions he can lay his hands on, he is a great coder, brilliant graphics artist, a friend to count on, a pleasure to have around and just awesome.

Orv is one of the rare people in the DB that does what he agrees to do, and he hardly ever refuses something you ask of him, but if he does you can be sure it is for good reason. Tasks I have given him have always been completed quickly, and to the best of his ability. There is no such thing as 'try', Orv doesn't 'try', he doesn't waste time wondering if he should or should not, he just does what needs to be done and moves onto the next project that needs help.

He has completely a number of 'sideline' graphics projects for various members of the Brotherhood, including a family crest for the Master-at-Arms, Master Rokir, character pictures, designs for websites, input on ACC posts, feud events, helping other members with grammar / spelling, coding projects for the DB itself…the list is legion and I'm sure to forget nearly half of what he has done.

The point is simply this, Orv has completed all the Arconan requirements for his promotion to Guardian, and then he went beyond that. Helping where he can, completing projects on his own, and proudly carrying Battleteam Qel-Droma, House Galeres and Arcona, through everything he does.

Congratulations Orv, this is well deserved.

Well what can I say about Orv? Ever since joining he has been active and took part in everything he could. Orv can be seen on IRC daily and is pleasure to work with. Orv has completed basic requirements from the arcona promotional guidelines and has done much more than that. He has helped with a Galeres Wiki page, is taking part in Master Student Program, and has done 5 Competition Submissions. Selen, his master, approves this promotion. Congratulations, Protector!

Orv Dessrx, 2007-01-23 23:00:00 UTC

Orv has been part of Arcona for little over 48 hours...and in this very short time he has already proven himself a worthy member. He has made a forum account, become a well known figure (or infamous :P) on IRC, taken part in a mailing list discussion, and completed the PHP, Lightsaber Studies and ACC Initiates SA courses. He has also discussed acquiring a Master and placement in a battleteam as soon as he’s settled in a bit more. This is more than enough for his promotion to Acolyte.

Great work Orv, I'm really proud of you!

Orv has completed his Character History and joined us on IRC. This fulfills his requirements for his very first promotion.

Congratulations Orv!
