APP Fang has only just joined House Galeres but has taken the initiative. He has already undertaken an initation battle in the ACC and I am told he will soon be cleared as a regular member of the ACC. In addition, he has teamed up with DJM Mejas for our Clan competition. All this within such a short time. Clearly, he has a bright future.

Through his activity Voldemort more then earned the right of wearing a lightsaber.

Since this is obviously an important promotion, I will be including three recommendations; one from myself, one from Ektrosis Quaestor Dark Sabre, and one from Dinaari Quaestor Shadow (because we all <3 Sharad so much!)

From Consul Kir Taldrya Katarn: To truly give Sharad a fair recommendation I would have to write a least a page if not more, but I will try to be concise. Sharad is my right hand man…but more like a second Consul. I ran Taldryan for quite some time without him to help me, but since he has returned it has been a huge relief. Sharad has used his incredible web-design skills to make the Taldryan website one of the most user-friendly, informative, and entertaining websites in the entire Brotherhood. His web-efforts have brought in many new recruits and helped them better familiarize himself with the Clan. He is also a great sounding board, always available to help me with rough ideas and smooth other any wrinkles. His experience is unrivaled and I value his advice above all others.

Beyond his work as Proconsul and his somewhat-recent activities in the Clan, Sharad has been passed over time and time again, going unrecognized for the tremendous amounts of work he has done for Taldryan. It has been over three years since he was last promoted, and in that time he was Obelisk High Commander and Proconsul of Taldryan. He easily could have been Consul of Taldryan, because while he was Proconsul the reigning Consul was absent much of the time. Sharad led the Clan through the day-to-day and to an outstanding performance in the 4th Great Jedi War all by himself. He was never awarded for these efforts by his superior, because his superior didn’t even know what was going on.

While most members would become disgruntled by this lack of notice, Sharad merely kept working hard. He managed to have the third most submissions in all of Taldryan in the Fifth Great Jedi War, being a huge part in what will (hopefully!) be Taldryan’s victory. His activity, experience, and attitude is unrivaled, and I cannot think of anyone more deserving of a promotion to Dark Adept more than Sharad. I mean it buddy, this one is all you!

From Quaestor Dark Sabre: Sharad is a stable and incredible Proconsul who has developed the Taldryan website to the amazing status it has now reached, easily updatable and very user-friendly; accessible to even the newest members. He, along with Kir, have always been a sounding board for any projects that I planned, while I was Aedile and my time so far as Quaestor.

He's also volunteered to create a website for Ektrosis and from what I've seen so far from the development, it's going to be great and a big step up from what we were using: a site that cut off access to everybody except Shadonyx. His graphics are what make the Clan and House sites stand out among the other not as well planned or not as artistic sites that populate the Brotherhood.

He's an extremely active member, and a sexcellent [sic] leader. Sharad played a whole lot of JK and JO for this GJW and submitted stories and graphics. He's an integral part of the system in Taldryan and is the most deserving person of a promotion in the entire Clan, perhaps in the whole Brotherhood.

Months have passed since a large award has been given to him, years since his last promotion. Sharad, if nothing else, deserves a promotion to Dark Side Adept!

From Quaestor Shadow: Sharad has been the pinnacle of leadership and activity since I joined the Brotherhood more than three years ago. Since his last term serving as OHC Sharad has put an incredible effort into rebuilding and strengthening Taldryan to bring it back to the glory it once had. Apart from the daily IRC, email and Message Board activity, Sharad created me a House Dinaari website including layout and all PHP-scripting in just over a week. The website has helped me spread information and competition to the rest of my House and has been a very valuable asset.

For the Clan he also created a fully scripted website that has helped many of our new members learn the Clans roots and basic information about the DB, such as connecting and downloading IRC. As well as links to all pertinent DB websites. Throughout the entire Great Jedi War Sharad was always motivating members to do more, work a little harder, go the extra mile just to see Tal in the winner's circle. Hell, he did almost a 1/4 of the submissions himself playing hundreds of JO/JK games, plus the fictional and graphical stuff.

Now I'm not great at spelling it all out for people, but Sharad truly deserves this promotion and has for some time. I know this DC likes to award people what the deserve and I hope this reccomendation does just that. This is the sort of loyalty and dedication to ones Clan and House that I think is seriously lacking with most of the DB. Thanks for all your great work Shar

First off I owe freshjive an apology for not recommending him for this award a long, long time ago. Throughout his time in Taldryan, freshjive has been one of its most active contributors, best communicators, most interesting conversationalists, greatest sounding board, and all around good addition to the Clan. This promotion reaches back throughout his time as Dinaari Quaestor where he did an outstanding job motivating and organizing his House into the powerhouse it is today, it also encompasses his return to Taldryan to take the reigns of Proconsul and assist me in managing this outstanding Clan. As Proconsul freshjive was active and did everything he could to help me make the Clan the best in the Brotherhood (I’d provide more specific details but it was a long time ago!). After resigning from Proconsul he returned to House Dinaari and was an active contributor to Taldryan during the Great Jedi War, both personally submitting and motivating his Clanmates. For all of this work, much of which has gone overlooked for far too long, freshjive deserves the recognition that goes along with a promotion to the rank of Obelisk Exarch! ~Consul Kir Taldrya Katarn

Nexusmage is one of the young pillars of Clan Taldryan. Since he joined he has quickly become one of its most important members. His activity levels are unrivaled; he constantly participates in Competitions, he is always available on IRC to talk, and he helps to motivate his House-mates. He was recently made Aedile of Ektrosis, but he did lots of incredible work as Tetrach of Hex Phyle before that, and this work went unrewarded. Nexusmage was also a crucial part of Taldryan’s Great Jedi War team, he was always active and available to help out. He has earned the right to take a step above the majority of the Brotherhood and enter the ranks about Dark Jedi Knight, Nexusmage has more than earned a promotion to Krath Priest!! ~Consul Kir Taldrya Katarn

Dark Sabre has been a constant positive role model since the day he joined, but his talents have really been as asset to Taldryan since he became AED (and recently QUA). In the past 8 months Dark Sabre has shown himself to be an exemplary example of what a leader in the Brotherhood should be. He is a great leader who leads by example; he’s always at the front of the pack. A good example of this would be his performance in the GJW, in which he had the 2nd most submissions in the entire Clan while at the same time leading House Ektrosis to a stunning number of submissions. He was named QUA of Ektrosis several weeks ago, and he definitely deserves a promotion to Krath Archpriest, congratulations Dark Sabre! ~Consul Kir Taldrya Katarn
