To Whom It May Concern:

Kalak Ragnose has been an integral part of House Acclivis Draco for years. Though in his early stages, Kalak was quiet and reserved, he has truly stepped into his own. Working alongside his mentor RevengeX Palpatine, as well as Timbal Palpatine, two of the clan’s most renowned leaders, has benefited Kalak immensely. When Kalak rose to the summit level, he was quick to through his name into the hat for any project that required volunteers. In fact, he was so quick to do so that he has become my “go-to” guy.

Kalak shows spectacular initiative, often being the first to remark upon projects and is usually the first to accomplish the tasks I set for the Summit. For example, Kalak has worked on the primary stages of the revamp of the Clan’s Nobility System, which is a mammoth undertaking. Furthermore, Kalak has begun to expand the clan’s lore by producing the Imperial Palace, as well created other opportunities for expansion.

Not only has Kal proved that he is an efficient leader, he is always looking for ways to expand and better himself, his house and the Clan, which is what makes him stand apart from many other members. Along with an array of medals, I feel that Kalak Ragnose has distinguished himself as exceeding the expectations that are necessary for elevation to Equite 2.

I am proud to say that Kalak is a member of my team, and continue to wish him the best of luck. Congratulations Kal, now get back to work.

-TO, CON of Scholae Palatinae

I humbly bring this member of the Krath, Kalak Ragnose, before you for elevation to the rank of Archpriest. He has served Clan Scholae Palatinae well during his nine months as a Priest. He has earned the following awards/honors since his last elevation:

Steel Cross Anteian Cross Dark Cross 4 Various Crescents 1 Cluster of Fire 7 Seals of Unity Scroll of Foundation Legion of the Scholar

Priest Kalak has served the Imperial Clan as Quaestor, Aedile, and Rollmaster of House Acclivis Draco during his time as an equite of the first level. His work during the Antei Campaign was excellent as he helped us in our tight finish at the end of the war. Kalak as also spearheaded a number of projects including the Imperial Palace that have helped our fictional aspect continue to grow during the past few months. On the Brotherhood-wide level, this member has served as the Magistrate to the Headmaster as well as an Electic Pedagogue to the Shadow Academy. Since my elevation to the position of Proconsul, Kalak has been an excellent member of the Clan's leadership, and I recommend him for elevation to the rank of Archpriest.

--- Dante, Proconsul of Scholae Palatinae

There are few in Acclivis Draco who work harder behind the scenes than Kalak Ragnose. Recently being appointed as the Quaestor of the House, he jumped into the role with vigour. He has balanced his duties in this role with the Shadow Academy, authoring the Force Cults exam and serving as Eclectic Pedagogue for this and a handful of other courses. Also in the Shadow Academy, he served as Magistrate to the Headmaster for a staggering two years, organising many competitions for the journeymen in the Dark Brotherhood on behalf of the Headmaster. Since his promotion to Krath Priest, Kalak has earned a plethora of medals, not least of which have been four merit awards: two Steel Crosses, a Dark Cross, and an Anteian Cross. One of the most dedicated members of Scholae Palatinae, Kalak is always willing to lend a hand to everyone from journeymen to elders, which has led to him overseeing the final stages of production of the Scholae Palatinae website and co-creating the Imperial Palace. For such reasons, Kalak more than deserves a promotion to Krath Archpriest. Congratulations Kalak, you’ve earned it! --AED Koryn Thraagus Dark Greetings,

I would like to recommend KP Kalak Ragnose be promoted to Krath Archpriest. It has been 8 1/2 months since his last elevation. Kalak was Aedile of House Acclivis Draco when I transferred to CSP, and has been Quaestor for about six weeks. He has been a great help to me, both when I ran Ebon Cloak and since I have been advanced to Rollmaster of the House. His leadership of the House has been inspirational to me, especially since I came from a situation with Clan Arcona where the leadership was decidedly uninvolved. Kalak cares about the more junior members of the House and keeps track of their progress with an eye toward their development and growth. He has worked closely with me in developing the current House competition, Who's Got the Guns?, and his advice and input have been invaluable. He is running the trivia parts of the competition. And despite a notoriously slow summer, since I have been Rollmaster and have been notified of his activity, he has earned a Cr1-S, a CF, and a Scroll of Foundation. He is also revitalizing the Order of the Dragon, working on the history of the House, and organized a run-on earlier this summer. I believe he has earned KAP, and feel he should be rewarded for his dedication to the House and the members wherein.

The summit have convened and agreed that Sashar's recommendation is warranted, it is included below

I would like to recommend Protector Maaks for promotion to the rank of Guardian. He has fulfilled the requirements as follows:<br<br>

He has been Protector for just over two months now, He is frequently on IRC in the channels #arcona and #db and has passed the Krath Core Exam with a score of 82.<br><br> On top of this, he has completed a four page character fiction assigned by his master, he has started work on his wiki article which is available to be viewed on the DB Wiki, and earned a merit medal. <br><br>

On top of this, he has participated in numerous competitions and administrative tasks within the clan, such as the Clan Arcona ROs (Displace and Breaking point), assisting the RO co-ordinator with plot and character creation issues, the restructuring of Soulfire Strike Team, work on the Soulfire Wiki Page and numerous innovative suggestions for the Arcona fictional tangent. <br><br>

Unfortunately for Maaks, there aren't an abundance of competitions for him to participate in within the clan, thus he has sought other avenues of activity within the clan, displaying considerable initiative. It is my belief that Maaks is more than ready for the advancement to Guardian. Thanks, - Sashar Arconae.

As my final official act as Consul, I wish to see Tarax promoted to the next Equite level. For over a year Tarax was a leader in Taldryan, first as Aedile and then as Quaestor of Dinaari. Although he has a...unique personality, his time one the Summit was fruitful. He ensured that the House stayed stable, while also acting as a great intermediary with the QUA at the time. In many cases he was the voice of reason (yes, hard to believe :P), and was the perfect foil for Vlad.

His activity and drive since his last promotion speak for itself: A GC; two ACs; two DCs; numerous CFs, crescents and participation in all major DB competitions. He was also a part of the MAA office and took up the roll of Trainer for Taldryan on the ACC staff. A true sign of his dedication was being named a Son of Taldryan...not an easy feat to be accomplished.

Tarax has done all that was asked of him, and carried the torch of leadership high for a very long time. I believe he is truly deserving of this honour. Congratulations!
