Dek Rott returned to CSP back in July and since then he has knocked out a ton of activity. On top of a long history of activity before going rogue, it is now time to reward his long history of activity as a knight and to see him rise into his much earned Equite rank.

Dek has a long history in CSP going back years to where he served a BTL, AED, and eventually QUA in Caliburnus. During this time he also spent time on the Wiki staff, a skill that has come into play massively more recently. And since his return, he has also spent time on the Appeals Panel.

His wiki skills have been of massive use to the clan in recent months. Following his return from rogues he approached me about the current state of the CSP category articles. he had realized the poor state of organization and clarity of the articles themselves. This has led to him helping with the huge task of rewriting articles, formating them, and making sure they all make sense in the clans larger and stronger Imperial Focus then had been present when the articles were first written. This has led to a lot of discussion of layout, and rewriting of entire articles, and the end product is something I know will be clear and useable for years to come.

His activity is more than just wiki work. since the day he returned, Dek has made sure to participate as much as possible. He has participated in some 27 competitions since his return from rogues, marking a total of 60 since his promotion to Knight.

This has led to him earning 2 Steel Crosses, 1 Anteian Cross, 2 Dark Crosses, 2 Bronze Nova, 3 Ruby Stars, 4 Amethyst Stars, 8 Sapphire Stars, 8 Emerald Stars, 5 Topaz Stars, 2 Quartz Stars, 1 Pendant of Blood, 31 Clusters of Fire, 76 Clusters of Earth, 21 Clusters of Ice, 3 Dark Side Scrolls, 1 Scroll of Indoctrination, and 5 Legions of the Scholar. This also comes with 15 competitions organized and 34 SA Courses passed.

To put it simply This is a promotion that has been a very long time coming. Dek is absolutely the kind of active and involved member we always hope to see, and it is now time to see him take his rightful place as an Equite member. Congratulations Dek, Drinks are on you!

Dek is a very impressive member and has shown his loyalty to the Clan. Within his first couple of months here he was selected to assist Jac in the CoJ as a personal advisor. This is no feat to be taken likely as we all know the expectations he holds. I have been impressed with his activity and consistent drive to be active. Usually I give the raw numbers breakdown, but Xen has more than met that. When looking for a future Equite, Dek is the person who maintains all the qualities that we want to further promote in the Club. Dek keep doing great things and welcome to the Equites!

Dek has an incredibly long list of leadership positions, competitions, crescents and awards under his belt. He is an incredibly strong member within our Clan that is recognized on a daily basis within most forms of communication. He has his fingers in many pies, but it is always worth it with Dek with what he on a return value, while also always willing to help other members any chance he gets

Since his return a few months ago, Dek hit the ground at such a speed that it would make me dizzy without the easy access of information. Between PvP/PvE activities, crescents and competitions earned, participation in the Shadow Academy, on top of leadership positions, Dek more than earned this position into Equitehood. I humbly put him forth, and I am happy to see you back at full force, congratulations Dek; drinks are on you!

Dek is a member from a distant past who keeps appearing, doing his bit and strengthening the community we have built here in Scholae Palatinae. You know msot people enjoy his company because when this guy participates, he puts in 100%. Dek has participated in over sixty competitions, he has organised fifteen of his own for the Clan and wrote over 6373 words of fiction. Most of these were recently placed into the thirteen submissions he entered for the Monstrosities vendetta, considering the entire event was 19 competitions this is a strong feat. Dek also strove to motivate and inspire his clan mates by posting over 7429 words of fiction into the Runon Temple of the Forgotten. I can promise you that he certainly motivated me to do more.

On top of this, Dek has took a dabble at the Shadow Academy by passing thirty-four course and gaining four degrees. But most importantly, Dek received a Steel Cross for his high activity and his contribution to the canonising of the Clan Title into the Legacy of Palpatine along with the help and enthusiasm from the Palpatine members.

Most recently I was approached by Dek because he was disappointed about the lack of interest in House Imperium’s military organisation. He wanted to take further action from his own submission and began a skeleton structure for the Imperium wiki. After several hard weeks of writing, and 2731 words later, the House Imperium was complete and brilliantly finished, solely by his hand.

I firmly believe Dek is a self-reliant member of this Clan and a future leader for our unit, I sincerely wish for the opportunity to work with him in this field. But until then, I’ll settle for promoting him to the Equite bracket.

Congratulations Dek! Drinks are on you!
