Requested by
Headmistress Alethia Archenksova
Primary reason

Aelic Vyrling, you continue to impress. You're growing more competent each day and you will surely rival the Council when the time is right. You have met the requirements for promotion, and a recommendation has been filed.

I will continue to watch your progress, Aelic Vyrling, but my direct intervention in your promotions must come to an end.

You will go far within this Brotherhood.

May the Force guide you, Journeyman,

Equite 3
Requested by
Master Selika Roh di Plagia
Primary reason

It seems like only yesterday I was sitting down to write Nora’s last promotion. In actuality, it was actually a month ago last Saturday, actually. Her activity since last promotion isn’t all that much by her meteoric standards, but that goes to show just how amazing Nora’s work has been during her time in the Brotherhood. She has often been described, by many people starting from the Panda on down, as a person who was breaking the Brotherhood’s rewarding system with her absolutely unmatched level of activity. It seems only fitting, then, that she’s allowed to “break” it one more time with the launch of our XP driven promotion system.

Nora has been an absolute dynamo of activity and engagement since her arrival, still shy of 12 months ago. In her time in Plagueis she’s entered over 300 competitions and placed in over 100 of them. She’s claimed not one but two sacramental awards. She’s brought over 1.5 million credits to the Plagueis clan coffers. She’s been a long standing member of the summit, serving as Aedile and Quaestor. In short, she truly was an outlier the system simply could not account for. As such, I’m absolutely thrilled to see that our system has finally “adapted” to Nora, her activity being such that reality has bent to her as opposed to the other way around. Congratulations!

Master Selika Roh di Plagia, 2023-01-18 17:15:31 UTC
Additional reasons

Nora continues to be an invaluable member of the Fist team, contributing to staff discussions and helping managing the queue. In the month since her last promotion she has reviewed 7 gaming activities in direct support of 15 unique members.

While initiatives from her new roles as the "multimedia magistrate" are not ready for primetime yet I look forward to watching her leverage her unique talents and skills for our gaming community. Congratulations! At this rate you'll outrank me before too long.

Warlord Brimstone aka Seabr'imsto'nedansr
Old Rank
Equite 3
New Rank
Equite 4
Requested by
Hand of the Emperor Korvyn
Primary reason

Ahh Brimstone our favorite Chiss we hate to love. Wait, what? Just kidding, Brimstone is the gift that keeps on giving. Despite everything that has happened to him through the years he is still here. Still active, still has that warped sense of humor and still loving life inside and outside the club.

Since his last promotion Brimstone has participated in 56 competitions earning himself 11 crescents. He has received a Grand Cross, Anteian Cross, and Dark Cross guring that time as well. During the last Great Jedi War he received 9 Seals of Ascension and while Vizsla didn't perform well overall Brimstones contributions were in the top scorers for the Clan.

During the last 4 months of his time as Aedile, Brimstone was instrumental in running the Great Hunt V clan wide competition. He ran 15 of the competitions and assisted in scoring, making the report announcing the results and made sure the final results were accurate. Unlike me, no recount was necessary.

Brimstone is also always on Discord and the news feed. Offering congrats, encouragement, and just generally being a good dude. We love having Brim in Vizsla, he contributes far more than he is often given credit for in making the clan a fun place to be. It is my honor to promote him a second time. Enjoy your credits Brimstone you have earned this.

Old Rank
Journeyman 4
New Rank
Equite 1
Requested by
Master Kamjin "Maverick" Lap'lamiz
Primary reason

Professional TheBlackxRanger has reached the required 5000 XP to reach the rank of Privateer.

Welcome to the first XP based promotion I get to submit. TheBlackxRanger has spent a considerable amount of time in Angel Grove knocking out Puddies at an XP rate of 100 XP per kill and the mighty boss battles at 500 XP a kill. He received a special bonus of 1000 XP for getting the Green Ranger's Shield but it was only a temporary boost as he had to return it after the boss fight.

While he is not the leader of the Power Scholae Palatinae he is the courage that makes for a great team. His mighty morphin competition engagement truly sets the bar of our growing Equites.

General Socorra Tenebrosa Nhar’qual Erinos
Old Rank
Equite 4
New Rank
Elder 1
Requested by
Lord Evio Nezsa
Primary reason

Socorra has held a lot of roles over the years in the DJB, many in Clan leadership or in support of the community and members, on the Dark Council, and in supporting me as Grand Master most recently. To speak only of the work she's done alongside me last year as my Praetor she has helped push projects forward and take on some tasks from me to see them to completion, the biggest of these being moving our emails forward a couple decades. For all her participation and contribution as a member, her time on the DC and as a leader and now project manager, I looked over her record and think she belongs as an Elder. Congratulations Socorra on your promotion.

Lord Evio Nezsa,
Additional reasons

Socks currently has one of the toughest jobs in the club: trying to keep me and Evant focused long enough to actually get anything done. As P:GM she took the reins on the email revamp project and helped James move it from concept to (ongoing) implementation. She put her project management chops to good use as Herald and she's been doing it again for the last several months. I think she's more than earned this promotion with all of her hard work and dedication. Congratulations!

Lord Dacien Victae, 2023-01-14 20:30:11 UTC

Since her last promotion to EQ4 in 2015 and through her club hiatus, Socorra was a creator and competitor alike. She organized 35 competitions and co-organized 5. Against that, she stacked as a competitor 289 non-container competitions (323 if you count the containers). Of these she placed in 67 as evidenced by her collection of Crescents, 7 of that number being Novae from the 29 GJW XV participations as evidenced by her Seals of Ascension. The numbers really stack up in her fiction count: just shy of 79,000 words of fiction across 37 activities, earning 170 Clusters of Ice to go with it. The next largest collection unsurprisingly comes from her 172 Clusters of Graphite. This she follows up with 58 Clusters of Fire and 103 Clusters of Earth. She tops these off with 1 Scroll of the Master and 2 Seals of Loyalty.

The 5 months of her year-long stint as Herald of the Brotherhood were before my time, if only by a matter of months, so I will let those more knowledgeable speak to that. As a Battleteam Leader in Arcona since her return, she has made that return with gusto, standing up an entirely new Battleteam — the Dajorran Marshals — and running her members through at least 2 dedicated RP events, for which at least one had its own map that Socorra brought in for the occasion. She is an active presence in the Clan and club, and this promotion is well deserved

Qyreia Arronen, 2023-01-16 20:38:18 UTC

Socorra is one who shows the value of being a leader, especially one of legacy as she has returned from the Rogues and immediately dove deep into not only being the P:GM, but also has taken to running a Battleteam (Dajorran Marshals) and mentor other members. She has mentored Nicfer Luthol to Knighthood and has pushed for her BT members to excel. Socorra has jumped to the support of myself as an Aedile and Quaestor as she has helped with running two events for the House. She provides input and feedback to help facilitate a healthy House and to stimulate growth between both the House and Battleteam. Socorra has run 2 full RP sessions which has facilitated more activity from her BT membership. These activities have provided additions to the member’s merit awards recently granted. She maintains a very thoughtful presence to assure that members are participating and getting their dues. This is even more apparent after her work on the XP system to reach every member of the DB. This does not even touch upon the history she has in previous positions such as being the Herald. She is definitely a dedicated member and has earned her right to promotion. For all that she has offered and given, this promotion is the only right choice and award to bestow.

It is difficult to put succulently the ways in which Socks, Socorra, has earned this title. Truth be told, I'm hardly the one for the job; her career has spanned longer than I have even been a member of the Brotherhood, serving as a leader in Arcona from Battleteam Leader to Aedile to Quaestor and executive officer -- yeah, back when those were used -- all the way up to the Herald of the Brotherhood under the reign of Grand Master Darth Pravus. In that time, she built up the fundamentals of the Warbanners project as we know it today that is further developing, revamped all sorts of graphics and systems for member requests and forms for the Herald office, released those ye olde Herald Hanukahs, managed her office and turned visions into reality for not only the Brotherhood as a whole but many individual members...and in her Clan, she was a driving force of activity and development for House Qel-Droma, the Shadesworn, and many other projects, leading by example through Wars, Rites, and the Dark Crusade, which she eventually worked on ribbon cases for.

If I speak generally, it is because Socks has done so much, and it goes so far back. Since her return she's had that same all-in spirit, wearing hats both in Clan leadership and as Evant's right hand, as the others will tell you. I will take this moment to express a sentiment that I can best speak to: Socks, though it may have never been said, you were a legend of your -- our -- time. When I joined in 2013, the DB was a good place...but it had areas where it was wrong. As a brand new and young female member at a time when being such a thing wasn't particularly welcome, and many of the female members spoken of around me were not spoken of well, you were an example of what could be: respected, driven, entrusted to leadership, a beacon of female power on a stage that had much growing to do. I'm happy to say that in my DB lifetime, we've progressed so very much in that regard, and those are mostly unpleasant memories, but know that if I hadn't seen what you -- and other women in our Clan and Brotherhood -- could be, I might not have myself thought I could do it too. You made the world wider. Personally, and as evidenced by these recommendations and your body of work, professionally.

Thank you, and welcome.

Raiheaux
Old Rank
Equite 4
New Rank
Elder 1
Requested by
Grand Inquisitor "Aequitas" Anderson
Primary reason

Rai-Ho, formerly known as Justinios, cares. He cares so much that it hurts, and that makes him truly special. He purposefully goes out of his way to make things better not for himself, but tbe members of this club. That's not an opinion, that is a hard fact. I've honestly never worked with anyone so focused purely on the member experience in the club.

Firstly, lets talk numbers. Rai-Ho has participated in 94 competitions, organised 40 competitions and co-organised a further 5, including some from the last Rite of Supremacy, and some, even from Pro Bowl IV. That last one in particular is what I want to focus on. Despite being Fist, and despite having just being promoted to EQ4 at the time, he jumped in to help co-organise the Pro Bowl upon request for aid. He did this with no expectation of anything in return. That's the kind of member he is, and it speaks volumes of him.

In terms of the number of awards he's gotten, he's earned the following;

Amethyst Kukri x1 Steel Cross x1 Crescent with a Diamond Star x5 Crescent with a Ruby Star x4 Crescent with a Amethyst Star x11 Crescent with a Sapphire Star x6 Crescent with a Emerald Star x5 SA courses passed x 10 Degrees Earned x3

Next, I will highlight his time as my Proconsul. It was cut unfortunately short due to real life circumstances, but there's no denying the impact he had on the Clan that remains to this day, namely the creation of the Taldryan Artifacts.

Specifically, how they are awarded to the membership. Rai-Ho always has the members in mind no matter what position he's in. The way Taldryan awards its Artifacts is based on a participation system that still exists to this day, and is used every quarter to award members within Taldryan the Artifacts. This, was Rai-Ho's idea.

Next, I want to highlight the upcoming Taldryan event. Before the competitions were made, Rai-Ho came to myself and Teebu regarding an idea to have the competitions affect the overall story/RP based on participation numbers.

If you take a look at the Prologue Puzzle you can see the idea being put into practice, and it looks very promising.

I don't have anything further to add other than his time as Fist, which obviously, I can't say much about, but I want to take tbe opportunity to congratulate Rai-Ho on his promotion to Elder.

Congratulations!

Grand Inquisitor "Aequitas" Anderson, 2023-01-13 22:49:04 UTC
Additional reasons

In addition to his great work in Taldryan over the years, Justinios was an ideal Fist. He worked hard, kept his staff and the members busy with competitions, and handled the always-complex vendetta gaming events with skill and care. He also helped to revive SWTOR as a major club activity, and it has remained one of the most broadly popular games played by our members.

For all of his hard work and dedication over the years, I'm happy to add my recommendation to this promotion!

Lord Dacien Victae, 2023-01-09 14:26:45 UTC

Justinios and I worked along side each other on the Dark Council for years, and his ideas and visions were always great to explore as we talked about the community. He managed the Fist office well and built up the community he was given to provide opportunities and enjoyment for many members. This in addition to his voice at the table in Dark Council matters. Congratulations on your promotion!
