Warrior Vardar Fen'Amar Ordo: Warrior Vardar Fen’Amar Ordo performed without equal in the Great Jedi War. Destruction personified, Vardar single handedly destroyed over three hundred opponents in man to man combat. His prowess on the battlefield dominated the five lesser clans of the Dark Brotherhood and all came to fear the wrath of his lightsaber.

Having served as a Warrior for eleven months, Vardar’s knowledge and power have far surpassed his current rank. For his domination of the Great Jedi War and his dedication to the Dark Brotherhood, I, Grand Master Sarin, elevate Warriar Vardar Fen’Amar Ordo to the rank of Sith Battlemaster.

Vardar Fen'Amar Ordo - Promotion to Sith Battlemaster

I knew this was coming about halfway through the Seventh Great Jedi War, and it's great to see Vardar recognized for his outstanding efforts. If there is one person who has demonstrated commitment and perseverance to Taldryan, it's Var. The leader in the JO/JA/JK ladder, also the most competitive and active ladder, Vardar has shown his skill and finesse for gaming, and used it to his Clan's benefit. The numbers speak for me: "353 wins, 64 losses"; that's more matches than any other Brotherhood member by over fifty matches. Vardar himself holds the majority of the Clan's points in that ladder, and it's safe to say he carried us throughout these six long weeks. Vardar also played a few matches in the BF2/Misc. ladder, expanding his interests from beyond the FPS realm.

Vardar was not solely a gamer in Taldryan, and showed his loyalty through fiction and graphics competitions alongside his gaming streak. Vardar participated in the runon, and made a solid contribution to the plot in his posts. He submitted eight fiction entries (placing in one), six poetry/graphics events, and the Evacuation of Lyspair competition (with three Shadow Academy Courses taken). Vardar is evidently a leader by example in Taldryan, and his consistent IRC presence always encourages younger members to do as much as they can for their Clan. As Assistant Envoy, Vardar mentors Journeyman in their quest for a lightsaber, and has done a nice job so far. I'm proud to award you the rank of Battlemaster, and I only hope your continued service to Taldryan does not cease! Congratulations, Sith Battlemaster Vardar Fen'Amar Ordo!

Vardar went crazy during this GJW. He posted three times in our clan Run on, he did two poetries, five graphics, nine fictions, seven miscellaneous gaming matches, and 465 JO/JA matches easily taking first place. Vardar went all out this Great Jedi War. With out him we could not have won this GJW. Vardar truly deserves this promo for everything he did for Tal. Congratulations Vardar!

• Epis Dark Sabre Taldrya: Epis Dark Sabre has gone too long unrecognized for his long-standing service to his Clan and the Brotherhood as a whole. In these times of open war, there are those among us who will rise above the fallen and achieve in the face of an enemy whose only mercy is death and whose number is legion. These are the Dark Jedi to whom the lesser among us must look and draw from them inspiration to carry my will to the enemy.

Let none among Taldryan or the Brotherhood forget what Dark Sabre has given us over these last weeks of blood. Let no one look upon him and not see that his scars from this war are more fitting a recognition of honor than any award or promotion. And let none among you address him as Epis hence. He has helped to lead Taldryan to victory through his actions in single combat as well as with his trusted advice to his leadership. For his wisdom in scholarly pursuits and his prowess on the battlefield, I, Grand Master Sarin, elevate Dark Sabre to the rank of Pontifex. <br>

<br> I’ve wanted to do this for a long time. Dark Sabre was my first Aedile and was always there to help me up until I took over house Ektrosis. DS worked his ass off ths GJW to take first in the ACC portion. He also managed to post in the RO, do a handful of gaming matches, and he did 2 fictions getting first in one. DS has been a great member of the clan for over four years, and has done much since his promotion to Epis. It has been over two years since his promotion to Epis. He ended his term as Quaestor during that time as well as being a Guard Caption in the GMRG. He was also a Magistrate to the Deputy Grand Master and Headmaster while working in the ACC. Dark Sabre also helped the clan in every major event since his last promotion. He worked hard in both the ORoS and the Second Darkness as well as giving everything he had to the 6th and 7th Great Jedi War’s. I’ve been waiting to be a part of one of your promotions for a long time DS and I’m glad I got this opportunity give you something you deserve. Congratulations on your promotion to Pontifex.

~PCON Chaosrain Taldrya

While I don't know DarkSabre on a more personal level, I've still seen his prowess in writing and the mark he's left on Ektrosis. DS is a flat-out outstanding writer, as evidenced by his dominance in the Seventh Great Jedi War's ACC ladder. With forty-three matches, and only five losses, DS claimed first place in the ladder and helped seal first place for Taldryan in the ladder. He had the second most matches in the event, and only times out on three, clearly showing his dedication to Taldryan using his gift for writing, something we desperately needed in this War.

DarkSabre wasn't exclusively an ACC writer, and made a two fiction submissions, placing in one of those, and placed in one of two poetry/graphics submissions. A loyal member of Ektrosis, DS has been here for quite some time and is always ready to pop in and help his fellow Clanmates through their struggles against other Clans. A leader by example, DarkSabre has indirectly encouraged many to participate heavily in the ACC. The monster that was CSP the first half of the War was decimated in the second half as the Taldrya stepped up and eradicated any notion of CSP taking the ACC event. DS spearheaded this, and without is early motivation and perseverance, our success might not have come and Taldryan's race with CSP for First Clan of the Brotherhood even closer. For demonstrating skill, determination, and dedication, I am happy to award DarkSabre the rank of Krath Pontifex, congratulations!

Tsingtao Ming the Merciless has been one of my best apprentices. This young man has taken the mantle of House Envoy for Ludo Kressh and despite having no experience has done an amazing job insuring that all new members are kept apprised of their educational and career options and that the house and clan summits are well informed. He has worked with the Rollmaster to keep the legacy of Clan Naga Sadow not only active but also excited about being in the clan. He has executed his duties with diligence despite being fully vested in almost every aspect of the Great Jedi War as well. Tsingtao has more than proven his commitment to this clan and indeed to the entire Dark Brotherhood. This member is further willing to help any and all members of Clan Naga Sadow with every resource at his disposal, a trait that is somewhat uncommon in the world today, but which we are seeing with increasing regularity within the members of the clan. In summation Tsingtao is an outstanding member and indeed one of the flagstones upon which the Legacy of Clan Naga Sadow rests. For all of his exceptional hard work, dedication, and attitude it is my profound pleasure to recommend that he be elevated to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.

Tsingtao Ming: Jedi Hunter Tsingtao is one of those Journeymen who are the backbone of this Clan. He has been House Envoy of Ludo Kressh since just after I took over as Clan Envoy of Naga Sadow, and I have to say, I have been very impressed with his work. Tsingtao has exceeded every expectation of what I expected out of an Envoy. All this from someone who when started as House Envoy had no previous experience of doing the job. I find myself having not to worry about any new member in House Ludo Kressh. Tsingtao's enthusiasm and determination is something I never get tired of seeing, his welcoming letters are outstanding, and he goes out of his way to ensuring new members are looked after. I am really proud of the effort he puts into being an Envoy and I just simply love it that he always seems to beat me to the punch when it comes to sending out welcoming letters. Another part of his Envoy duty he exceeds at, is the KCE Reports that much be sent to the KCB, which contains the new members received in Naga Sadow over the report period. I ask both my Envoy’s to contribute to it, and Tsingtao goes beyond what is required out of him, and writes an Envoy Report that is equal to what is expected from Summit members. This Jedi Hunter has demonstrated abilities far beyond what is needed of, and all this doing a job many see as “thankless”. Tsingtao has proved, in my books that he has what is need to make an outstanding Dark Jedi Knight. So without further ado, congratulations Knight Tsingtao on your promotion, may you wield your saber with pride and continue to do your Clan proud… you have really earned it!

Tsingtao Ming Since his last promotion, He has: Passed the Knight Trials to my satisfaction, and that of his Master. He has amassed 7 SA tests, including participating in the Lyspair Challenge, been an incredible Envoy- I mean this resolutely. Tsingtao Ming makes me feel at ease, as I know I can count on him. He also participated in the JA portion of the war. His documentation of Envoy report was appreciated in the midst of the GJW fray. To my awareness, he has fulfilled his role and trials as a Knight, and then served his Clan as Envoy and fought in the War on top of that. Truly, this supplicant deserves to have his own, true blade- the lightsaber, and Rank of Dark Jedi Knight. He was almost ready to be Knighted before this war- and surely, he deserves the robe and lightsaber now. Tsingtao- use that powerful chi in the Way of Sadow.

-- SBL Mononoke "Macron" Keibatsu Sadow CNS Consul Fourth Caste of the Inner Order

Tsingtao Ming, 2007-08-24 22:00:00 UTC

• Battlelord Mononoke "Macron" Keibatsu Sadow: Conflict and Chaos are often excellent environments to judge the true measure of a leader. Two months ago, Macron assumed command of Clan Naga Sadow under such circumstances. In the time since his accession to Consul, Macron has proven his skill and leadership ability. These skills have been placed on display during the last two weeks when Macron rallied CNS to fight to the very death and secure a more prominent position amongst the Clans of the Dark Brotherhood. While other Clans sputtered and faltered, Macron and CNS rose to the challenge and continued to fight the vast power of the Yuuzhan Vong.

Macron has spent a long time developing his skills and honing the power of the Dark Side. His labors have been justified by the unification of his Clan under his banner and the removal of the CNS stigma of being a soft push over. For his expert leadership, I, Grand Master Sarin, elevate Battlelord Mononoke "Macron" Keibatsu Sadow to the rank of Sith Warlord.

From when he first joined the Disciples of Sadow, the then Macron Goura demonstrated the mark of a truly exceptional member. He was care free, light hearted, kind spirited and just in general an all round nice guy. He was one of those members a Consul was pleased to be able to say "he's one of mine".

Since then Macron has been a stalwart figure within the halls of Sadow Palace. He has excelled throughout his time, being a popular and much loved Quaestor, then Proconsul, now Consul. During this period he has even found time for a little bit of Tribune, among other things, on the side. Throughout all this I have never heard anyone say a bad word against him. Macron is truly one of those peoples' people. He leads through example, providing an active and positive role model for all to follow.

During his time as Proconsul and later Consul, Macron has been a guiding member of the Clan Summit and Inner Circle. He is not one to get worked up, taking things in his stride. He approaches problems with a level head, always looking for results, working with people, rather than against them. His motivational influence during the Seventh Great Jedi War has been truly commendable. He has remained resolute, set backs have not phased him, and his commitment and dedication have been solid throughout.

I was genuinely surprised when looking at Macron's record while writing this recommendation to see he is getting on for the year mark for his time as Sith Battlelord. This promotion is long overdue and I hope his service to the Clan remains as strong in a year's time as it is today. My brother in Sadow, Macron Sadow, you are truly a great asset to this Clan, and I hope your services will remain with us and be long lived well into the future.

Congratulations,

Lord Xanos Son of Sadow

Macron has been a shining example of what this club stands for. His first objective in any leadership role has always been, "Are we having fun?" Whether a flight leader or Consul, he has always made this priority and has gone above and beyond to ensure that the people in his care are enjoying the DB. He is one of the first to greet each and every new member to the clan, offering his assistance in anyway necessary. He has participated in every major and minor event; showing his support for Clan Naga Sadow. He has contributed extensively to the clan's wiki pages, creating new and wonderful things to aid in the fictional universe that is Clan Naga Sadow. He has mentored to me personally, helping me grow, seeing my potential and feeding it. It is with pleasure that I recommend him for this promotion to Sith Warlord.

Ahhh....Macron Goura....

When I think of the noble legacy of the Consuls of Clan Naga Sadow, I envision the legacy of the Clan itself. We are a united front, loyaly, trustworthy, committed to honor. Macron upholds the highest standards of the ideals of our Clan. He is brave without being boorish, he is responsible without being overbearing. He demands activity, without coercion, and reinforces the bonds that have made this Clan strong over the years.

I am proud to have him counted as a fellow Consul of Clan Naga Sadow, and a Brother in Sadow. He has reminded me of my own reasons to be a member of the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi, and stands as a beacon of support, leadership, and ultimately of triumph for our Clan, and the continuance of the Final Way itself.

As a student, he shows the depth of insight to be willing to take advice, and chart his own paths... possibly even to make a mistake.. with courage.

Of my Brothers, Macron has earned the levels of my respect.

In triumph,

Master T. I. Sadow

The history of Clan Naga Sadow is rife with the achievements of exemplary members. Our Traditions and indeed our very Legacy stand upon our ability to recognize and cultivate extraordinary individuals and in my many years of membership in this clan I have seen few people of Macron Keibatsu Sadow's caliber. Not one month after joining the Brotherhood he was granted not one but two positions as an Eclectic Pedagogue and as a Flight Leader and from there his career only went higher. Within two months he became a Battleteam Leader and from there moved into the position of first Aedile and then Quaestor of House Ludo Kressh where he served with distinction turning it into the First House of Clan Naga Sadow before being appointed as Proconsul where he worked diligently to ensure the smooth operation of the clan.

Yet all this pales compared to his exemplary leadership as Consul of Clan Naga Sadow. Seizing the reigns of leadership mere moments before the start of the Seventh Great Jedi War, Macron has lead his clan in the best possible manner…from the front. He never asks others to do what he himself would not; he inspires confidence and fosters a sense of community not found within the rest of the Brotherhood. He is always willing to help a member in need often times going out of his way to insure that they receive the support they deserve from their Consul and friend. His genuine excitement and great love of his clan, its membership, and the rest of the Brotherhood are what make Macron an excellent leader and an outstanding gentleman.

It is my most profound honor to serve beside Macron, and my greatest privilege to recommend his promotion to Sith Warlord. I have no doubt that in time he will become one of this organization's most valued and trusted Elders.

Pontifex Troutrooper Tarentae: Pontifex Troutrooper has distinguished himself as a scholar and trusted advisor to all those who know him. Serving at the will of two Grand Masters, Troutrooper has explored the deep mysteries of arcane and esoteric Force abilities. Troutrooper’s knowledge has led to the foundation that will one day serve as the core of Force powers all Brotherhood members are trained in.

Pontifex Troutrooper has also proven to be one of our greatest warriors. Leading from the front, TT has led Tarentum in four consecutive conflicts. His skill and cunning in war has proved to be an enormous addition to the already venerable forces of Clan Tarentum. TT’s combined knowledge and warrior prowess has surpassed that of the Equite Ranks. For his wisdom in scholarly pursuits and his prowess on the battlefield, I, Grand Master Sarin, elevate Pontifex Troutrooper to the rank of Dark Adept.

There are a few members of the Brotherhood who have been more than worthy to stand among the ranks of the Elders, but have been held back either due to time, or efforts to improve the Brotherhood as a whole. In the case of Troutrooper, he has certainly given of himself for everyone’s gain, and now, the time has long-since passed, in my opinion, for him to be given his true station as an Elder of the Brotherhood.

Even before Troutrooper re-joined us here in the Brotherhood from the EH, I spoke with him on a few occasions. Though he knew lines were drawn, and respected them by virtue of his position, he did not let those lines cloud his judgment, or incite his anger. Troutrooper is, and always has been, a gentleman, an intelligent comrade, and a leader of men. We are fortunate to have him in the Brotherhood.

When he re-joined this Brotherhood, he came to us in Tarentum, and I was more than pleased to have him in the Clan. His efforts began immediately. He accepted a leadership position over a Team of individuals, and worked to provide them with a motivated example, and was a dedicated leader. When he resigned those duties, he did so to focus on a job that he knew would have far-reaching effects, and one that would even benefit those members he “left behind.” When Jac took Troutrooper as his Praetor, I knew that good things would come from the office of the Grand Master and his staff.

I was not privy to the actions taken by Troutrooper, but I know, from speaking with Jac, that TT spent a lot of time on projects for Jac, and did them with experience and concern, and was a benefit to Jac’s staff. Though I cannot speak for these projects, I can say that Troutrooper never failed in his activity in the Clan. TT has always maintained his activity levels, and even working for Jac, he still competed in a lot of competitions, and provided an example for his peers of the drive and tenacity that we can all strive for.

Troutrooper was named a Tarentae some time ago in honor of the work he had done for the Clan, but as exhibited by his activity in this Great Jedi War, his motivation has not failed him. He has shown extraordinary talent by placing in many events, and gaining several wins for his works of fiction. He has not slowed his activity in this GJW, and that actually says a lot. Most of us who have participated in several of these Vendettas know how tiresome they can be, especially towards the end. It takes a great deal of determination to maintain a strong level of activity throughout the entire event, and TT has done so. He is an example to everyone in Tarentum, myself included, but also stands as a paragon of activity and excellence to the Brotherhood.

His History Outline shows a number of medals that speak for his constant activity. Going through his earned awards shows that Troutrooper takes part in as many events and activities as he can.

Troutrooper works for the betterment of all, no matter where his opinion places him. I can say without regret, and with a great deal of respect, that Troutrooper will stand against those, myself included, whom he feels is incorrect, and will back up his opinion without hesitation. No matter what the correct resolution is, Troutrooper has insight and wisdom that can always improve the situation. Though I cannot elaborate on this aspect, I can say that a willingness to stand for his convictions is an admirable trait, and is one I hope to see passed on to future generations of Tarentum through interaction with him.

Troutrooper is more than ready to be elevated to the rank of Adept and beyond. The only other thing I can say on his behalf is, we are benefited beyond compare by his presence in the Brotherhood, and I am proud to see him as a member of Tarentum, and a leader within this Clan, even without position. He is an example, and a friend, and I appreciate all that he continues to do.

Congratulations, EvilAckbar.

• Primarch Sithspawn Taldrya: Primarch Sithspawn Taldrya has gone above and beyond the call of duty in serving Clan Taldryan in the last two years. His efforts have ensured Taldryan victory in two Great Jedi Wars, three Rites of Supremacy, and a House Civil War. His dedication to destroying all those who oppose Taldryan has been equaled by only a few members of the First Clan.

Serving as the leader of House Dinaari, Sithspawn has elevated his outstanding leadership ability and inspired the troops under his command. Using his intellect and wisdom he completed tasks during the war that ensured victory for Clan Taldryan. His leadership has been heralded by the members of his Clan and they have overwhelmingly encouraged his status in the Dark Brotherhood reflect the efforts he has put forth. For his dedication to the Dark Brotherhood and Clan Taldryan, I, Grand Master Sarin, elevate Primarch Sithspawn Taldrya to the rank of Dark Adept.

Sithspawn Taldrya, the always amazing Ziggy, led house Dinaari through this GJW. He did a fiction, 2 graphics, 2 poetries, won 7 miscellaneous gaming matches, 3 Run on posts, and got the clan 3rd place points in the second Embrace of Pain. But that is only a little part of what Ziggy does. He is has been a loyal member that has been with us ever since he came from the EH over two years ago. Ziggy is always around to help the clan. He has helped us win every big event since he rejoined, and by my count that is three Rite of Supremacy’s, and two Great Jedi War’s. His work as Dinaari’s Quaestor has been very helpful. He helped lead Dinaari during the war and is always ready to help Duga or myself. This has been long coming Ziggy and you really deserve this.

• Battlemaster Kraval Novir: The business of war is not limited to the fighting on the battlefield. Forces must be marshaled, supplies must be provided, and equipment must be transported. The Dark Brotherhood is fortunate to have a Dark Warrior in Battlemaster Kraval Novir, who can accomplish these tasks. Kraval has distinguished himself among the greatest of Master at Arms. His work is a thankless and often unnoticed job, yet we could not function as a war fighting organization without him. In the past six months Kraval has processed thousands of requests and streamlined the procurement process for the entire Dark Brotherhood.

Sith Battlemaster Kraval Novir has also recently assumed secondary duties in combat training and weapon mastery. These skills have only added to Kraval’s value as an integral part of the Dark Brotherhood command staff. Processing requests and training recruits are not the most exciting of missions assigned to members of the Dark Brotherhood, but they are tasks that are essential to our survival. For his dedication and effort at improving the day to day operations of the Dark Brotherhood, I, Grand Master Sarin, elevate Sith Battlemaster Kraval Novir to the rank of Sith Battlelord.
