Hades is a member whose term of membership in the Brotherhood encompasses mine three fold. He is an individual with quite a record, having taken part in at least 12 Vendettas, though at 21 years of club membership such a record is to be expected. As a member of our Clan and now as a leader in our Clan, Hades brings knowledge, experience and some expertise to the areas that he touches. Since his last promotion, he created 4 competitions for Tarentum and then has recently created the “Military Recon of Tarthos” competition which he is using as a kick-off point for future House-narrative development. He and I have already talked about ways to help tie the developments for Tarthos into our desired Clan-narrative in meaningful ways.

In the terms of personal activity, Hades has been quieter than some but he has been far from silent. He has participated in Clan-run competitions, contributed our Clan culture in Telegram and gaming with folks about the club. Clan Naga Sadow has already given him a Steel Cross for how he has engaged with the Clan and participated in events in spheres both Vendetta and Clan. 20 of the competitions that he has participated in were in the Taldryan-Plagueis-Sadow Pro bowl. 3 of them were in the Redemption and Honor competition that saw the Clan retake our home system. 3 were in the Rebels and Ruins event and another 5 were during our Operation: Antiquity event between Clans Plagueis and Naga Sadow. Even before he has joined our Clan, he was recognized for his former Clan for his contributions both for personal activity and his term there at BTL.

To talk about the numbers, Hades had organized 6 competitions and has participated in 114 competitions since his last promotion. He has earned 24 Crescents and a Gold Novae for his efforts. They numbered as follows: 3 Crescents with a Ruby Star, 4 Crescents with an Amethyst Star, 7 Crescents with a Sapphire Star, 6 Crescents with an Amethyst Star, 4 Crescents with a Topaz Star and of course the before-mentioned Gold Nove he got for his part in a team fiction in Great Jedi War XIII. He has also earned 4 Seals of Wrath from Great Jedi War XII: Retribution, a Seal of Fury from Rite of Supremacy: Meridian, 14 Seals of Discord from Great Jedi War XIII: Discord and earned another 12 Seals of Visions from Great Jedi War XIV: Homefront.

Hades has engaged in a variety of activities over time. He has earned 19 Clusters of Fire and 894 Clusters of Earth from gaming through 13 PVP activities and 93 PVE activities. Part of this has been as Hades has joined up with others in playing Heroes, which has helped I think to further drive gaming in Clan Naga Sadow. He also has earned 51 Clusters of Ice through a variety of fictional activities: 1 completed ACC battle, 18 fiction activities to the tune of over 16 thousand words and he has written 12 RO posts for an additional 8420 words of narrative. It is also worth noting his activities have also earned him 22 Clusters of Graphite! Although Hades has been a long-time member of our community, he also does not shy away from the Shadow Academy, where he has taken and passed 3 courses. In the avenue of leadership, he has also delivered 10 reports: 6 reports as a Quaestor of Marka Ragnos, 1 as an Aedile of the same and 3 more as a Battleteam Leader in his former Clan.

He has served as an Aedile for three months, has served as a Quaestor for seven months and had served as a Battleteam Leader for eight months before that. He has worked together with one of my tenured members following Great Jedi War XIV, engaging hours of discussion and analysis to identify the weakness of our Clan fleet and helped to shape the proposal that was presented to myself and the Proconsul.

Reviewing his record to date, I think that I feel comfortable in recommending Hades to take the next step on his path. As such, I propose that Battlelord Hades take up a new rank. Rise as our latest Warlord, Hades. I hope that your continued career with the Brotherhood and hopefully within our Clan with be fruitful and fun.

Drinks will be on you tonight, Warlord.

I'm honored to be writing this recommendation for Hades. He has contributed his knowledge and expertise on multiple projects and also done a great job of managing and leading House Marka Ragnos.

In my short time working with him as Aedile of Marka Ragnos I have seen that he is committed to continuing the House's development and success. Hades has made sure that the House's possessions are named and categories properly. He has also worked with me on the direction of the House and we have had several hours of discussion and planning on how to develop Tarthos (the House's fictional homeworld) and how to continue the House's fictional story. We have also discussed development of future leadership opportunities for our members, which has further demonstrated Hades' dedication to seeing the House and it's members succeed. On top of all this, Hades has continued to participate in competitions himself and has a been a leader in getting members involved in gaming on our favorite platform, Heroes of the Storm.

Aside from working together in HMR, Hades and I worked on the CNS possessions updates together after GJW XIV. Hades provided his expertise during several hours of discussion and analysis in which we looked at what CNS currently had and analyzed where it was weak or strong. This included looking at various items in the item research database and comparing their pros and cons vs what we wanted. We also put together multiple rough drafts before deciding on a final proposal to send to our Summit. Hades was instrumental in shaping the proposal that we sent to our Consul and Proconsul.

This promotion is well-deserved. Congratulations, Hades!
