Requested by

Primary reason

DarkHawk has grown exceptionally as a leader. He is willing to learn and strives hard to make his House a place people feel welcome and can have fun. During the past few months he picked up when his Quaestor couldn't due to real life constraints and really helped keep his house moving forward.

During the Rite of Supremacy he emailed his house almost daily, encouraging and motivating them forward. He also heavily inspired them in chat, sharing with them the events he had participated in and motivating them to participate as well.

DarkHawk spent 6 months as Aedile of House Shar Dakhan and was promoted to Quaestor these past 4 months. Prior to that he was Battle Team leader of the Night Hawks for 8 moths. He has also spent the past 11 months a an Appeals Panelist.

He has organized or co-organized 12 comps and participated in 52 comps on his own. He has passed 40 SA courses and gained 11 degrees.

He's received 14 Crescents, 77 Clusters of Ice, 14 Clusters of Graphite, 1 Scroll of the Master and 1 Seal of Wrath and 12 Seals of Fury. He has earned an Anetian Cross as well.

Per the Justicar: DarkHawk volunteered to create a summary reference document covering key information for all 59 CoJ cases. He completed the fairly tedious and detailed task quickly and did a great job with it. I expect it will be very helpful to me in the future. - Adept Dacien Victae

It is with great pleasure the I recommend DarkHawk for this promotion to Equite 3. Well done!

Additional reasons

All of my Dark Brotherhood leadership experience wants me to gather metrics for promotions and awards. We want to be able to put hard numbers and facts in our recommendations because that is what speaks the loudest. But the problem is that sheer numbers cannot encapsulate DarkHawk’s contributions to the House Shar Dakhan.

It’s the little things he does every single day that pushes us all collectively forward, from his daily morning greetings to the little conversations he has throughout the day that make the members of the House feel individually accepted and supported by him.

As the recently stepped down Quaestor of the House Shar Dakhan, DarkHawk ably served as my Aedile. There were many, nigh uncountable times when I didn’t have the time to do a task or hold a conversations and he did not hesitate to complete those tasks in my place. He never complained, he never felt unappreciated or put upon. I was the leader of the house, but he was coaching me. His concern was always for my well-being.

DarkHawk through his constant, supportive presence has become the heart and soul of House Shar Dakhan and I can think of no one more deserving of elivation to the status of Sith Battlelord.

What isn’t to be said about DarkHawk? The man is fantastic, both as a leader and as a mentor. He guided me on my path to Knighthood and will now guide House Shar Dakhan into a great future. Even now he is planning a group discussion with House Shar Dakhan in order to move forward in a direction that satisfies the House. DarkHawk is the rare leader that truly cares for his subordinates. He is approachable and efficient when presented with a problem. I recommend DarkHawk for promotion to Equite 3.

I have worked with some interesting and effective folks during my time in the Brotherhood. Of those, Takagari certainly stands out. He is always willing to step up, and to step forward. When he has a question, Darkhawk has never hesitated to come to myself or Ashia in order to set his course straght. Making great efforts to support his house as Aedile, Darkhawk has put the same heart- and more- into his new role as Quaestor

His heart is in every job and position that he has found himself in. One of the first things that DH did upon his appointment was to begin sketching out how to integrate House and Clan visions together to form a more cohesive and complementary whole. If the past is anything to go by, Darkhawk will bring an extraordinary drive and an infectious energy to House Shar Dakhan. For this man, the sky is the limit. I cannot think of any better way at the moment to recognize his contributions than to add my voice in support of Darkhawk's promotion to Battlelord.

Since taking a leadership role this year in HSD he has been a heavy influencer and participatant in all things Shar Dakhan. Working with him has been absolutely fantastic. He has been extremely approachable, a great sounding board for ideas and has kept our leaders new and old motivated and working hard on making our house a better place. I really appreciate all of his hard efforts to increase House participation and to encourage our members to work together. One could even say that DH has been the glue that holds us together. More like concrete really and I feel that this promotion couldn't come at a better time. Well done sir!
