Frosty Romanae Tarentae
Primary reason

Since Kromtal Stormfyld aka Darknyte was demoted almost 10 years ago he lost interested in this club and joined the Rogues for almost 7 years. But since 2015 he has steadily came back to activity and has been a member of Tarentum for the last 2 years. Since his demotion, Kromtal has participated in 38 competitions and has won 16 Crescents. He is an avid gamer, raking in 357 Clusters of Earth and 16 Pendants of Blood.

His most impressive actions are in the Shadow Academy where he holds the Maxima Cum Laude with 73 taken or retaken exams, 2 Dark Pundits, 9 Dark Maven and 4 Dark Savant degrees.

Kromtal has even taken up leadership positions. He was Quaestor of House Gladius in 2007, for 3 months (interesting enough I served as an Aedile under him) and most recently he was the Battleteam leader of Deathsworn for 5 months. He has posted 4 reports and has helped his members a great deal. He trained me as Aedile to step up as Quaestor and has increased Deathsworn's numbers.

For all his efforts he has been awarded with a Dark Cross and an Anteian Cross and before his demotion he has earned 2 Grand Crosses, one of which was for his great feats in the Sixth Great Jedi War.

My opinion is that Kromtal Stormfyld has paid his dues and is a full functioning member of DB. He put his disreputable behavior in the past and now I think he's ready to step back in the Equites ranks. I am glad I could offer him this promotion. Congratulations, Warrior Kromtal Stormfyld!

Additional reasons

I've known Darknyte a long time. I've known him as DN, I've known him as KS. I've known him as a lot of other names. Interestingly enough, when he and I got to know each other at first, we didn't like each other. But then I took time to actually get to know him.

Darknyte has a reputation in some circles. In Tarentum, though, he has always been a stalwart defender of the Clan, and a huge proponent for new members. He worked in the Shadow Academy under Spears and Anshar because he believed in making this Club a better place. He believed then (as he does now) that new members are our future. Like the rest of us, he still goofs off and has fun, but Darknyte has matured.

Darknyte has been a Knight for a long time. He came back to the Brotherhood to be with friends. When he came back, he checked #tarentum on IRC, but found it empty. We had already transitioned to Telegram. Instead of drifting away, he went to COU. He still wanted to chill and have fun, and wanted to be an active part of a Clan. He's since been back in Tarentum and has shown a continued devotion to being a vital, supporting veteran to our newer members. He's showing activity and a willingness to take part in those activities he enjoys.

We don't have a reason to fear him, or suspect him. And as Frosty has exhibited, we have every reason to see how he has matured and elevate him back to the Equite ranks. I look forward to seeing more good work out of him.

Congrats, dude.
