During my tenure as House member and Rollmaster of House Acclivis Draco, I have always kept an eye on the group of new members that arrived in the House as inexperienced “newbies.” The other eye was kept on the feats of other Dark Jedi who had been a part of House Acclivis Draco. However, at the start of the Independence Games 2005, a particular Protector (soon to be Guardian) Cornix was near the head of the entire Clan’s force, earning 14 Seals of Alliance after the conclusion of the vendetta. His activity was one of superiority in the Clan and especially in the House at the time. Cornix was a regular chatter on IRC and loved to participate in multi-player gaming events (like the ICTE and Gaming Nights). He was able to accumulate 95 Clusters of Fire in 3 months, something extremely impressive, and even took over as Tetrarch of the Dragon Guard phyle when its usual leader was on leave. Then Guardian Cornix disappeared for almost a year. Only about one month ago did he decide to rejoin the Dark Brotherhood, and since then, he has passed four Shadow Academy exams, shown up on IRC and has participated in the Great Jedi War with a particular vigor that has made him noticed by the Clan with great interest. I know that he will become a great member of the Brotherhood, and even after over a year of the rank of Guardian, he truly represents a member that embraces the Brotherhood’s key values of friendship, merit and integrity. Because of his vast efforts in proving himself, both in the present and past, I wholeheartedly recommend him for a promotion to the rank of Jedi Hunter. -RevengeX

On this day, it has been over one long year since Guardian Cornix has seen a promotion. Over that course of time Cornix has been very active and eager to do what he can for his Clan. He has shown his determination to succeed and his will to do his part. The Clan Scholae Palatinae requirements for elevation to Jedi Hunter are as follows:

Guardian, Cornix has earned a massive number of Clusters of Fire, earned a Crescent with Diamond Star and Emerald Star, earned a Steel Cross, two Dark Crosses, a Scroll of Indoctrination, and fourteen Seals of Alliance. On top of all this he has passed eight Shadow Academy exams including not only Lightsaber Studies but also Leadership Studies. Additionally he has been one of our Clans most active members within the Great Jedi War. Cornix is beyond deserving of promotion to Jedi Hunter, and it is with great pleasure that I recommend him for the honor. Congratulations Cornix!
