Following the Conclave of Clan Naga Sadow for the Month of August 2005 the Clan Summit and Inner Circle wish to recommend the elevation of Dark Jedi Knight Dessan to the status of Obelisk Templar.

Dessan is a motivated, hard working and committed member of the Clan and the Dark Brotherhood as a whole. He is personally extremely active being one of the better Jedi Academy players the Clan, and indeed the club, knows. He is constantly in contact with a high IRC, e-mail and TS presence. But Dessan's contributions do not end on the personal front. He has made sacrifices in many forms. His service to the Dark Brotherhood in providing time and money to establish DJBHosting.ORG speaks for itself as does his work in establishing a Team Speak server for the club. He has also served as a successful master, having already- as a Dark Jedi Knight himself- trained another member up to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight.

But words alone from one man cannot say all there is to say, so here are a selection of the recommendations recieved:

Dessan is a great asset to the Brotherhood, he is actively looking to better the Brotherhood for all of its members. Recently he founded the DB radio as a way for members to get together and chat and listen music. He also puts in a lot of time on IRC and is always around and active. Dessan has shown beyond any doubt that he has grown beyond the status of a Dark Jedi Knight, he has earned the right to formally join his Order and to claim the title of Obelisk Templar. - DA Spears Tarentae (Sith)/HM-RHoJ/Dark Council Headmaster of the Dark Brotherhood

Dessan has impressed me greatly over the past several weeks. I was first approached by several people who told me that Dessan had expressed interest in helping with the Gaming News Site. I began to talk with Dessan about it and found him to be very knowledgable in PHP and website in general. I gave him control of the site and have been pleased with the progress so far. Beyond that though, Dessan has taken it upon himself to establish some great functionality for the DB. He has started the DBRadio server and is establishing the Hosting service for the Brotherhood. All of this has come at considerable monetary expense; for that we a greatful. These are good additions to the DB, all due to Dessan. I am looking forward to what Dessan will do next. He is an innovative and initiative-filled member who deserves our thanks. - GM Jac Cotelin (Sith)/GM/Dark Council Grand Master of the Dark Brotherhood

Dessan has long been an asset to Naga Sadow, but his efforts as of late demand special attention. From filehosting servers under his command, to the new Dark Brotherhood radio, and too many other projects to list here. Dessan is quickly becoming one of the strongest contributors on the support side of the Dark Brotherhood. For his work, I have to reccommend him for this promotion. Well Done Dessan. - KE Muz Ashen Keibatsu (Krath)/PCON/Naga Sadow Proconsul of Clan Naga Sadow.

Which, all in all, leaves me very little more to say that has not already been said. Dessan is a superb member who more than deserves to join the true ranks of his Order.

Congratulations, Templar Dessan, on behalf of all the Inner Circle and Sons of Sadow.

Following the Conclave of Clan Naga Sadow for the Month of August 2005 the Clan Summit and Inner Circle wish to recommend the elevation of Krath Archpriest Nekura Manji Keibatsu to the status of Krath Epis.

I get through a lot of recommendations every month after the Conclaves but rarely do I get the opperunity to write one I feel as deserving as this. Manji is an exemplary Quaestor and one of the most successful members of his House in recent times. He is an example to everyone in the Clan and one of the best Quaestors we have seen in a long time. He not only does his duties but is highly active on top of that participating in numerous competitions and the like. Not only this but his services are not just restricted to the benefit of Clan Naga Sadow but to the entire Dark Brotherhood with his work for the Antei Combat Center and so forth.

Here are a few of the recommendations recieved:

Let me take a moment to recommend my Krath Master, Nekura Manji Keibatsu to you. Manji has been the best Master an aspiring Dark Sider could ask for. He mentored me personally in many ways, fueling my love for the DB and inspiring me to take up the mantle of ACC combat. He has helped me to feel my full potential as a DB member. Even when I had been whipped, he helped me up. My Master has always lent me his ear, and has been a strong guiding voice to me. His words have always rang true, and helped me moderate the passions of being a Journeyman. He has guided me to the Way, helping me to attain the rank of Dark Jedi Knight. Manji is both a mentor and a friend to me. I could mention fully his tremendous works in the ACC and as Quaestor of House Marka Ragnos and Envoy in full, but there is no need. His actions speak for themselves, loudly and often. I recommend he be honored by an elevation, as there is no harder working and inspiring individual in my eyes. I bow and honor my Master, and am sincerely grateful for his tutelage and friendship. - DJK Macron Mandalore Goura Commander of Sapphire Squadron

As long as I have been in the DB, Manji has been a very important leader, and a very understanding one. He is willing to help out, and go the extra mile, even though other items are calling his attention. He is very active in the ACC, and has developed and put together a major multi-event campaign. After all the time and effort he puts into the various tasks and things that are either assigned to him, and those he volunteers for, I agree that it is time to reward him. - Kat Pridemore Aedile of Marka Ragnos

I would have liked to include a recommendation from Dalthid here but unfortunately I have mislaid it. Needless to say the fact Manji's work has attracted the interest of a member of the Dark Council is of itself an honour for the young Archpriest. I know how much Manji does for the Combat Center and the Combat Master's words reflected this. I am sure he will be able to extend his personal praise later.

Manji is a great member, a great leader, and runs a great House. He is one of the best people the Clan has produced in the past few years and has a bright future ahead of him in the Dark Brotherhood. It is for this as well as everything else mentioned above that the Inner Circle wish to request his elevation to Krath Epis.

Following the Conclave of Clan Naga Sadow for the Month of August 2005 the Clan Summit and Inner Circle wish to recommend the elevation of Dark Jedi Knight Phantom Goura Mandalore to the status of Krath Priest.

Following the Conclave of July I made two promotions I had held off for some time due to their more controversial reasoning. I had been unnecessarily cautious and chose to made both Karimicus and Raidoner wait a little longer for their promotions. However people and their interests change and I finally conceded that it was time to modernise and accept that things have moved on.

I do that again today in requesting the elevation of Phantom to the rank of Krath Priest. She is a great member though not in the conventional sense- her skills and contributions lie in the world of Star Wars Galaxies. She is one of the most active contributors to the Dark Brotherhood Player's Association. She players almost daily and dedicates a good deal of her time toward actions that directly help the Guild to thrive and grow. She is a laid back and friendly personality who is extremely helpful to new members and has helped a number of people get into the spirit of the community that makes up the Dark Brotherhood, be they members of her Battleteam or fellow members in Galaxies.

Her work as an Obelisk Sergeant is steady and she keeps up her work as well as trying her best to encourage activity in a House that has not historically been known for its high Obelisk presence.

This recommendation comes especially following the frequent recommendation for her elevation from Baron Raidoner:

Guys I think DJK Phantom is way over due for her Promotion as Sith Warrior, Phantom's activity in SWG has been outstanding not to mention her willingness to help other members complete their quest and goals. I feel that Phantom has represented the DB and our Clan in an honorable matter especially when it comes to handling politics with our allied guilds, she has always been there for all members in our time in need and she is the perfect candidate for Baron when I take a step down. Phantom truly is a cornerstone to the guild and to our clan and for that I believe she deserves recognition. - Sith Battlemaster Raidoner Goura Mandlore Baron of the Dark Brotherhood

While it remains one of those unusual promotions to come my way I cannot deny the contributions and the committment Phantom has shown in the name of the Dark Brotherhood. She is an example of a model member of the Dark Brotherhood Player's Association- proving that a 'dual-life' both in game and in the Brotherhood proper is possible. It is for that reason the Inner Circle of Clan Naga Sadow are pleased to request her elevation to Krath Priest.

What can I say about Jack. Since joining he has been a dominating force in MP gaming and has participated in competitions while maintaing an active IRC presence and passing 3 general shadow academy tests. He has been tearing up the gaming nights and has been actively helping out new comers.

For IRC prescence and passing an impressive number of SA courses Sodoorsk deserves this promotion.
