Since his last promotion, Kaled has earned himself 2 Dark Crosses for his activity, a Bronze Novae for 3rd place in RoS: Escalation Long Fiction, and participated in 26 total competitions, 11 of which were in GJWXV and assisted Arcona's 1st place by completing 7 bins. He was awarded 11 Seals of Ascension for his efforts. The other vendetta efforts earned him 5 Seals of Enmity for his participation in the Rite of Supremacy: Escalation. Over this time, he has amassed 11 fiction and 8 RP efforts which has totalled 45,272 words and earned him 98 Clusters of Ice. He has earned 16 Clusters of Graphite. Not to be missed was 1 gaming activity and 16 Clusters of Earth. He also co/organized 3 competitions. He has earned 142,740 credits for the Clan. Kaled was awarded with a Crescent with Emerald Star as well. This year Kaled was one of two clan recipients of the Seal of Loyalty for May Fourth, which further demonstrates his steady activity and clan presence.

Kaled brings smiles and surprise to everyone he engages with in the clan and is a fount of encouragement and fun. He has recently spread his wings and taken his warm traits to the Brotherhood at large to become a positive influence everywhere. For his constant activity and positive engagement with the clan and club I am more than happy to elevate him to the ranks of Equites!

I am writing the supportive for Kaled to promote him to Equite 1. In my observations of him, Kaled has maintained a steady and paced activity since his promotion to Knighthood, even taking up more competitions to excel and reach to the next promotion past becoming a Knight. When prompted with the expectations for this next goal, Kaled sought out to participate in many competitions and continues to do so, especially finding his niche in the new RP sessions. He has participated in both the House event held in September and the Clan event in October/November. He is a regular member in the chats, always commenting and assuring that all knows his presence is there which he provides much joy to others. His last promotion was almost 2 years prior and since that time, he has put a significant amount of effort into his place within the clan and house to be a reliable member. He knows to be present when he is needed and I believe he meets the criteria and qualities to be promoted to Equite.

Nora Olen has continued her torrid pace of activity from the moment she achieved her promotion to Knight five months ago. She has made contributions to our Clan from the place of both a contributing member to a leader giving back to her members. Without doubt she has been one of the most important members of the Ascendant Clan since this summer (and before lest we forget!).

Nora's level of activity has been truly remarkable, not just in its quantity but also in the condensed time frame it takes place in. Outside observers have had occasion to ask the question "How does she do that much?" Since her last elevation in in mid-July she has submitted entries to 133 competitions (including all 32 total competitions during Pro Bowl VI) while earning 30 placements: 1 Gold Nova to go along with 2 Diamond, 7 Ruby, 6 Amethyst, 9 Sapphire, 4 Emerald, and 1 Topaz crescent. She has submitted 10 fiction activities totaling 6,173 words to earn 17 Clusters of Ice. She's completed 10 gaming activities to bring home 107 Clusters of Earth. Oh, and Clusters of Graphite for graphics entries? She's amassed a staggering 71 of those, too. To top that off she also captured 25 Seals of Ascension as one of the top overall participants in this summer's Great Jedi War. She also passed an additional 5 Shadow Academy courses while earning two Dark Mavens (Leadership and Writing) along with the Dark Savant of Leadership and Communication.

As a leader, she has split time between Aedile and Quaestor in House Ventress and acquitted herself very well in her role. She has organized 9 competitions between her D&D series and the currently running end of year puzzle series. She has completed all of her assigned reports (skipping her Quaestor report during the Pro Bowl in favor of a focus on one to one member engagement) and continued to send out our weekend competitions update messages to her House. Her work during the Pro Bowl led to some truly staggering results, however. 10 of the then 15 rostered members of House Ventress submitted to events during the Pro Bowl, accounting for 50% of the unique Plagueis participants, and generated a total of 108 total entries. It is because of the work Nora did during the event that Plagueis saw a 70% participation ratio in the Pro Bowl and bested by 50% again the next closest unique participant number of all participants. For her leadership performance coupled with her individual activity she was awarded an Amethyst Kurkri, earning it in an astounding 3.5 months!

By any definition Nora has been one of the best members of Clan Plagueis in 2022, and I would put her work up against anyone else in the Brotherhood as one of the best members of the club at large. One of the most rewarding tasks that a leader has is to write recommendations for their subordinates, and Nora makes that job all the more enjoyable by making it so damn easy to justify her reward and advancement with her astronomical activity. With the thanks of a grateful Clan, I put her forward for elevation to the second level of the Equites.

Khryso Mallus is, by any measure, one of the most active and contributing members of Clan Plagueis and has been so ever since I returned to the Clan in 2021. Over the last year since his most recent promotion in December of 2021 he has made contributions to our Clan through activity, leadership, and worldbuilding. It is not a stretch to say that Plagueis would not be where it is today without the tireless work of Khryso along the way.

As far as personal, individual contributions, Khryso has been putting up numbers that are staggering pretty much constantly with the last twelve months since his last promotion being no exception. He has submitted competition entries to a whopping 219 competitions. His entries have earned him 93 crescents (4 Diamond, 11 Ruby, 15 Amethyst, 15 Emerald, 8 Topaz, and 1 Quartz) which works out to just over 42% of his submissions earning him a placement of some variety. I don't think there are many members, past or present, that can boast such a consistent rate of placement per entry. He also had an impressive showing during the 6th Pro Bowl, 22 entries earning 141 total points. He has earned 17 Clusters of Ice for his 8,367 words of fiction across 10 fiction activities. He has also gained 9 Clusters of Graphite for his graphical submissions. Khryso was awarded a Seal of Loyalty this year as well as 3 Seals of Ascension in this year's Great Jedi War.

His contributions as a leader have been valuable as well, serving as a steward of House Tyranus in some capacity for since before his last promotion date through mid-August. He worked under Tahiri as Aedile until March when he was asked to step up to replace her as Quaestor. He executed these two tasks with great skill, being sure to keep his House members updated with on-time monthly reporting, only interrupted during the Great Jedi War as our focus shifted to greater amounts of direct member engagement as news posts about the War dominated the website. In addition, both during his time in the Clan summit and since he stepped away, Khryso has been a vital part of updating our Clan wiki presence. As what amounts to the sole author of our Clan history article, Khryso has made 49 different wiki article edits to Plagueis wiki articles to keep that content up to date. This includes two major updates to the "Clan Plagueis history" article that have chronicled the Clan history updates across the last year, adding 1,648‎ and 1,525‎ bytes respectively to the article. Without his work, these wiki articles would likely have fallen considerably out of date. For his total contributions to Clan Plagueis Khryso has been awarded both an Amethyst Kukri as well as a Grand Cross over the last year.

Khryso continues to make his mark on Clan Plagueis. His work has been invaluable to the Clan and the summit of the Ascendant Clan, making contributions that otherwise would have gone undone. Khryso has more than earned his advancement to the final of the Equite ranks with his contributions over the years, and it brings me great joy to be the one to put him forward for this advancement.

Since joining the Club, Randy has hit the ground running. While not only working hard to hammer out his promotion requirements, Randy continues to be a significant driver in our community by encouraging the membership to stay active, engaging in constructive conversations and discussions, and participating in and running our Community Events.

His achievements include participating in 51 competitions earning him 11 Crescents with Diamond Stars, 8 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 4 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 5 Crescents with Saphire Stars, 2 Crescents with Emerald Stars and 1 Crescent with Topaz Star. From his 88 gaming activities, he has earned 291 Clusters of Fire and 767 Clusters of Earth. He has also earned 3 Clusters of Graphite, organized the Of Mice Droid and Men fiction competition, and has passed 13 Shadow Academy courses earning himself the Dark Pundit - Essentials degree. He has also received 1 Scroll of Indoctrination for recruiting Griggs D'arc but has also pulled Zekk Terrik back from the Rogues. All of which helped him earn both a Dark and Steel Cross.

While holding the Aedile position of the Consular Conclave for only a week at the time of writing, I have no doubts that Randy will continue this trend of stellar activity and help guide others as they explore this Club and their creativity.

Thank you, Randy, for everything you do and gaming with us.

Congratulations on your promotion to Journeyman 4!
