<I>Acolyte Saarin Vahn stood quietly on the stage in the meeting hall of House Qel-Droma, in front of the entirety of its membership, along with the friends and allies he had made throughout the Clan. His Rollmaster, Timeros rose from his seat on the stage and the soft conversations diminished to silence.<br><br> "Acolyte, you have proven yourself yet again and have come to this place to be recognized in front of your brethren. Is this correct?"<BR><BR> "Yes, Master," the Acolyte said and bowed. <BR><BR> "Then kneel," the Rollmaster ordered as the Acolyte acknowledged the command and took a knee before him. <BR><BR> “Today, the Summit recognizes Acolyte Saarin Vahn and has, by consensus, willed that he be recognized as a Protector.“ The Rollmaster lifted his hand and drew energy from the room around him and formed a shadow that seemed to ooze its way over the Acolyte, covering him in darkness. <BR><BR> "Light is limited," spoke the Rollmaster. <br><br> "Darkness is infinite," said the Acolyte. <BR><BR> "Then as such, Protector Saarin Vahn, rise and accept your new station within your Clan."<BR><BR> The applause was thunderous as the newly elevated Protector rose and faced his brethren. He raised his arm and shouted, <BR><BR> "ARCONA INVICTA!" <BR><BR></I> I hereby request a promotion for Acolyte Saarin Vahn, who has fulfilled all requirements for promotion under the Dark Jedi Brotherhood's promotions guidelines, as follows:<BR><BR He has completed and had approved a valid character history.
