Jedi Hunter Jyx Zirv-Zinor is one of the few members of CSK that takes challenges to heart and does his best to succeed at their fulfillment. He is an asset to our Clan, that should go without saying, but more so - he is part of our struggling family. Some time ago, the leadership of Clan Satal Keto devised a modified set of advancement guidelines to facilitate the melding of the Orders. For so long we 'stipulated' between Sith, Obelisk and Krath in a way that seemed to foster their segregation, but with the approval of the new guidelines, each member faces the same 'core' tasks for promotion. It should never be the policy of any leadership echelon to 'give' rank away, and Jyx's case was no exception. I must say, that his QUA and I pressed him to work a bit harder because we knew that he will some day take his place among the leadership - and in that, would require the skills and understanding that initiative, drive and effort can bring. He has completed his requirements to be elevated to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight. His trials took him from merely attempting success at House and Phyle level, to competing within the Clan and then the Brotherhood while placing his "Krath Order' 2nd and his membership to the Brotherhood 1st. His trials also required his expansion of DB knowledge, the workings of the Clan summits and even into the roll of RM in Aleema. Jyx is a character, I'll have to give him that, and most who know him will agree - but his passion for the Brotherhood exceeds his antics more times than none. He remains professional when necessary but is boisterous enough to keep from being boring. We hope for his continued service to the Clan as he expands the scope of his knowledge and participation, but for now - the younger members will look to him for guidance as they begin their journeys to attain their sabres. It is with pride that I request that JH Jyx Zirv-Zinor join the next level of accomplishment, be sent to build his first sabre, and be granted the elevation to Dark Jedi Knight.
