Since becoming an Elder 2 (Master), Dacien (Bubba) spent two successful years as Justicar, before becoming my Deputy Grand Master when I started my term as Grand Master. Everything he has touched, he has made better, and he has stepped up in every possible way to allow me to focus on what I need to as Grand Master as great support. There hasn't been a discussion or decision made I feel over the past 3 or more years that hasn't included his guidance in shaping the Brotherhood to be what it is today. I can think of no more appropriate reward for his hard work and diligence than a promotion to Elder 3. Congratulations Prophet Bubba.

28 days later...an alluring opening for the continued impressive achievements performed by Lt. Raleien. One of the most striking things about this past month was the personal crusade Raleien set himself on to achieve all 29 requirements for promotion to JM4. With an impressive 18 of 29 completed he came closer than most recent JM4 nominees all while continuing to progress his real life academic goals.

Going by the numbers, since his last promotion, he's maintained a steady stream of activity.

Competitions
Organized - 2
Participated - 12

Activity
PvE - 19
Fiction - 3
Words Written - 6,946

Shadow Academy
Courses Passed - 23
Degrees - 3

Awards
Anteian Cross - 1
Crescents - 2
Pendant of Blood - 3
Clusters - 206
Seals - 14

When taken as a whole Raleien has exceeded my expectations of a raising JM4. He motivates others to compete with easy to participate in competitions. He leads by example, as shown by his metrics above and the fact that his SA run of activity encouraged another member to take additional courses with them both taking the 1st and 2nd places in the recent SA competition.

I look forward to seeing Captain Raleien in the new future!

You're already beginning to make a name for yourself, Atoko. I have heard reports from House Galeres that you have managed to:

• Perform a basic activity, such as contacting the house/clan summit

I have recommended you for immediate promotion.

Congratulations, and may the Force guide you, Novice,

It’s been an interesting 4 year journey for Edema since her last elevation to Equite 2. Before getting into the technicals, I wanted to just quickly say how proud we are of Edema for sticking with the club even knowing that sporadic breaks to attend to personal matters would slow down her progression towards her next rank. We always say that real life comes first, but one of the defining challenges I believe of members that are in it for the long haul is that they still find a way to come back and make an impact.

To that end, Edema has certainly made a quiet impact on the Brotherhood over the past four years despite a few breaks in the timeline. Regardless, as a non Summit member, Edema has organized over 40 competitions, most of which were done to drive engagement in various elements of the clubs writing and graphics communities. This shows a clear division between a pure “consumer” member and someone that actively does try to give back and drive activity.

From a leadership perspective, Edema logged 5 months as Magistrate to the former Herald, as well as 3 months as Magistrate to the former DGM. This work and achievement was captured in her first Steel Cross awarded back on 4/12/2019.

Further, Edema has participated in 97 competitions, while collecting 33 Clusters of Ice, 22 Crescents, 6 Clusters of Fire, 91 Clusters of Graphite. She has passed 41 Shadow Academy Courses, earned 11 degrees, 1 Scroll of Foundation, 1 Seal of Loyalty, 6 Seals of Wrath, 1 Seal of Fury, and 10 Seals of Enmity. This can be reflected across earning 2 Anteian Crosses, and most recently adding on another Steel Cross by stepping up in RoS: Escalation.

Never stopping not stopping, Edema has, since the conclusion of RoS: Escalation, continued to be active in the Battleteam by helping add elements to the Voidbreaker Wiki page, and taking part in regular competitions across the club. She earned a Ruby Crescent for coming in 1st Place in the Star Wars Movie Pitch - Get Your Movie or TV Show Greenlit! competition, with a few more competition entries pending grading.

This shows her continued commitment to being an active member of this club, and I’m honored to combine this with all of her hard work and past activity to welcome her to the rank of Equite 3.

Congratulations, Edema.

Edema is certainly a nice presence around the battleteam. She always starts her days with a greeting in our chats and is always engaging in happy conversations with every member of the House.

Her coming back and having stayed active for a longer period is a big plus because we are happy to have her around. Not only that, but Edema did quite well in the latest RoS.

Recently, Edema has also taken part in the latest Battleteam RP session to unwind from the RoS where she has interacted with many members and come out of her comfort zone.

As her Aedile, it thrills me to see her do just that and i couldn’t be prouder to support this recommendation to elevate Edema to the rank of Equite 3!

Congratulations E!

Bexa has been making exceptional progress on her way up the ladder. She's participated in 34 competitions, earning herself a Dark Cross and an Anteian Cross, passed the Leadership Communication Course, has been awarded 13 Clusters of Graphite, and has just closed out her first competition.

Good work getting to JM3, now there is only one step left until you become a Knight. Keep it up Padawan!

Ever since Sulon joined the Brotherhood, he has been a beast; an Odan-Urr MVP. Since his last promotion, he has participated in 15 competitions, written over 3,000 words of fiction, earned himself a Dark Cross to bring his total Merit Awards to 2, 3 Crescent with Ruby Stars, 4 Crescent with Amethyst Stars, 6 Clusters of Ice, 36 Clusters of Graphite, and 2 Seals of Enmity. He has worked hard to become a Jedi Knight and has been a pleasant presence in our Clan and House chats. He will go on to achieve great things in the DB and I look forward to seeing what else he brings to the table in the future. Well done, Sulon!

Rowan Dragos, 2021-08-04 21:36:33 UTC

Despite a busy schedule working on independent projects, Sulon seems to always have time to pitch in when Odan-Urr needs him. He has become our preeminent artist, as one might guess from his 36 CGs. His relaxed, mature demeanor has made him a joy to work with.

Sulon has been with us for one year today and I hope it is only the first year of many to come. By the right of the Council, by the will of the Force, it is my honor and joy to dub Sulon Tiful a Jedi Knight of Odan-Urr.

Headmistress Alethia Archenksova, 2021-08-04 21:16:22 UTC

Sulon has been one of those members who've always found time during a busy day to power through his promotion requirements. You can often find him chatting it up on our Clan channels, participating in our community events, and helping secure us wins like during this last RoS event with his 2 Seals of Enmity. In addition, his name comes up often during our Scimitar grading, providing some stiff competition for his Clanmates.

Making Knight is one of the most rewarding achievements in this club, especially when it's on your birthday. Happy Birthday and Congratulations!

Cadmus Drake, you continue to impress. You're growing more competent each day and you will surely rival the Dark Council when the time is right. You have met the requirements for promotion, and a recommendation has been filed. Your accomplishments include:

• Have an approved character sheet on record
• Pass 6 non-Fundamentals Shadow Academy courses
• Pass 8 Shadow Academy courses from the Fundamentals Department

I will continue to watch your progress, Cadmus Drake, 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,
