Primary reason

Since his last promotion Solas Night-Thorn has been a busy bee. He has participated in 32 competitions for which he has earned 18 Crescents of various types. A great writer, he managed to earn no less than 32 Clusters of Ice for a whopping number of words, 9700.

But Solas doesn't play for himself only. Since his last promotion, he has been leading one of Tarentum's most successful units, The Nekros Syndicate Battleteam, for no less than 9 months now. Since then, Solas has organized 8 competitions, reported 3 times. Solas has also organized the BT into fictional ranks with leaders for their three subunits and maintains a great wiki page for the BT. He has also mentored a incredible member, Tahiri Drakon, to the rank of Knight. Tahiri is currently one of our up and coming rockstars and Solas had a big part in her mentoring.

On top of all of that, Solas has found time to help the Herald Staff as a Magistrate. He has 7 months and counting since he's been on the Staff. The Herald speaks highly of him and has even awarded him a Grand Cross for the work he has done.

I think Solas is more than ready to ascend to the ranks of Equites. This promotion has been long time coming for him. Congratulations, my friend!

Additional reasons

I was appointed Rollmaster after Solas Night-Thorn grew through the early ranks and became a Knight. Even if I was in this position in his early ranks, I would not have been of any use to him. Solas simply has/knows all it takes.

Solas has not only embraced everything the Brotherhood has to offer, he's one of the members who are molding our future. He has passed on his knowledge to his two students, blackhawk and Tahiri, who are at their turn two of Tarentum's most active members.

The members of Nekros Syndicate look up to Solas, as their Leader, and I'm pretty sure there are others who envy him for everything he has already achieved.

Solas Night-Thorn has done some great work... as active member of Tarentum, as Battleteam Leader of Nekros Syndicate AND as Magistrate to the Herald.

You earned this. Big time!

Solas has been really coming into his own as a leader over the past eight months, leading his Nekros Syndicate while at the same time doing a huge amount of work as a Magistrate to the Herald. He has participated in over thirty competitions, sponsored eight, and brought home a number of medals including a Grand Cross. He has taken part in six battles in the ACC since his last promotion, including two against me in which he definitely gave me a run for my money. His writing skills are getting better all the time, and he has done a good job asking various members of the Clan for help to keep improving. The advancement from Knighthood into the Equites is where a member should be starting to give back to their Clan in the form of leadership, mentorship and of course participation, and I am pleased to say that Solas has taken his role to heart. He has been in the Clan's spotlight for some time already, but lately has been helping to guide his own student into it as well. For all of these reasons I am pleased to recommend Solas for advancement into the ranks of the Equites.
