I was talking with Ceth about this the other day. Who’d have ever guessed that A: I’d be able to get over myself and give him a chance, and B: he’d actually be able to make something of himself in Arcona’s summit? Neither of us, that’s for sure, but make it he has. And he’s even gone one step better and excelled. I’ll get the boring necessary stuff out of the way first, to prove that he actually deserves the reward before we start saying how he’s a step away from solving world hunger whilst composing a concerto, pleasing my mother in a way my dad never thought possible AND delivering the 9th reincarnation of the Buddha.

Heeeeere we go! Right, in terms of medals, since his last promotion, he’s earned fifteen Seals of Unity, A Grand Cross of the Dark Side, three Dark Crosses, two Scrolls of Foundation, a Legion of the Scholar, five Crescents with Emerald Stars, One hundred and forty two (!!!) Clusters of Fire, a Pendant of Blood, a Crescent with Sapphire Star, a Crescent with Amethyst Star, a Crescent with Topaz Star, a Steel Cross, five Seals of Bone, a Seal of Loyalty and finally fourteen Clusters of Ice. This is insane. That’s JUST the medals!

Next up: His leadership. He’s got a Dark Maven for service to the SA (which he’s still doing and has been for 4 months previously as Professor or something), been Quaestor of Exar Kun for about two months, Battleteam Leader of Wolf Guard and Shadow gate for a combined time of 5 months, Aedile of Galeres for a month, and Quaestor of Galeres for two months previously and still holds the position today. That’s a combined time of about 14 months in various leadership roles. He doesn’t just collected failed summit positions, either; he’s worked damn, damn hard to better whatever he’s put in command of and puts out prompt reports, has run a total of twenty competitions (if you really, really want me to list them all I can) – he’s brought in new members from Myspace, Fabook, Twitter and Bebo through a DB advertising campaign (which he headed up), He’s run the War of Domination for Galeres, which brought about a marked increase in activity with his House; always nice to see. He’s tried his hand at the Arcona wiki revamp project, participated in 5 ACC matches, is NEVER off IRC, run Clan Arcona IRC trivia, trained up BTLs in Galeres in the form of Inarya and Maaks, honestly he can do it all. There is nothing he cannot manage as a leader (other than apparently using a spell checker) and is well overdue for a promotion. Okay, I need to pause for breath, but you see where I’m coming from, right? The activity listed is superhuman. Titanic. It probably outshines some clans, and it deserves recognition.

Good job, mate. You’ve put us all to shame with your activity, especially in the face of such adversity.

Well, what more is there really to say about Cethgus that hasn’t already been mentioned here. He and I haven’t always necessarily seen eye to eye, but I feel that everyone can accept that Cethgus cares a great deal about this club and every day he works to improve it in his own way. He is always there with advice and help where it is needed, his enthusiasm is always refreshing and surprisingly unique and he is always online, chipping in and adding his own output to whatever is going on at the time. He is supremely active, gleefully flooding my inbox regularly with medal reports from his escapades into the gaming that is on offer in the Brotherhood along with also submitting fictions and helping to run things in the background as and when it is required. His work in the Shadow Academy has already been mentioned by the Headmaster, but it just goes to show that he is not one-dimensional, diversifying himself and spreading himself wide but not thinly, not letting any part of his activity falter at the expense of another. I could harp on all day, but I’d just be reiterating what has already been said, so allow me to sum it all up; Cethgus is one of those few members whose work more than deserves to be rewarded with a sacramental medal. He has worked to better himself, he has worked to better Arcona and he has worked to better the Brotherhood as a whole with his work as a Professor in the Shadow Academy and a member of the gaming staff. He is a prize that Arcona is proud to possess, and long may we do so. Congratulations Cethgus, this is more than deserved. Keep up the good work and give me an excuse to stroke your ego some more in the future.

Ceth has been on my staff for a bit over 4 months now, and in that time he has done one heck of a job. He's always been suggesting competitions including Old versus New, Naruto Special Gaming event, the Halo Reach Tourny, and several others that are on our calendar that is coming up. He constantly games, and evidence to that is the 313 matches that he played in the month of February, beating a record that was set by Smoke back in August which was 293, but also as further evidence to this fact, there hasn't been a month that he did not rank up in the GMRG. He was originally scripted to make sure that everything that I did while on the Gaming Servers that I had acquired ran smoothly and that I didn't make any mistake. Cethgus also wrote the original Sections in the RoC for the Halo Series, Alien versus Predator, and Star Craft 2. He also took over administration of the training days, where he makes sure that we have enough trainers for the respective games, as well as informing our members of our training days, and making sure that the trainers are ready for the training days. On the training days it self, he tracks how many hours the trainer has been training, as well as how many matches, and at the end of the day he awards the trainees the CF's that they had earned for that day. Finally, he was a major part of of Project Icon. He created the General Rules for Matchmaking and the Free For All sections in the RoC. Thanks Ceth for all you do and Congrats on your award dude!

While I do enjoy having time to myself and don't want a Summit position at the moment, I can't allow my native House to suffer without at least trying to help.

I do not know how Eiko does it. For most of his time in the DB Eiko has been a leader in Revan, our first Idependant House. While talented beyond question, the foundation first laid for this House was suspect, the culture that arose from it not as conducive to what is perceived as "healthy" in the DB. As such, Eiko has been fighting an uphill battle from the moment he took command of the House. It is a battle however that he tirelessly fights and should be an inspiration to others. He is constantly looking a new ways to motivate his House and finding novel ideas to spark some life into Revan. He does not sulk or lash out at others, but instead uses his energies to encourage his House. He does not quit, and does everything that can be asked for from a Quaestor. He also lends a hand to any Dark Councillor who wishes for it, his efforts not only confined to his House. He is a true team player, and his efforts do not go unnoticed. Congratulations and welcome to the ranks of the Equite. Keep up the hard work!


DJM Halcyon Taldrya Deptuy Grand Master


To All Who are reading this, what follows is a recommendation for one of our best and brightest to be honored for his contribution not just to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood as a whole, but to the perseverance and preservation of our first Independent House since Ektrosis.

I speak of course about our very own Dark Jedi Eiko, Quaestor of Independent House Revan.

Since last being promoted in October of last year, after running Independent house Revan for over a month, he has proved to be a dedicated and determined person that has pulled out every possible stop to keep Revan alive. He has personally spearheaded five competitions for his house: Napkin Poetry, Zodiac Writing, Finish the Report, Revan Trivia, and Revan Trivia points ladder. Furthermore, he contributed to the Independence Games by writing and judging the event Drive.

He has managed to earn a pretty consistent and exceptional amount of awards in the last seven months: Seventy Seven Clusters of Fire, Two Crescents with Diamond Stars, Crescent with Ruby Star, Six Seals of Defiance, Three Seals of Return, and a Bronze Nova.

What remains the driving factor though is the fact that Revan is still alive. Despite losing many of its more senior members and suffering steady attrition, including myself, Eiko has never once given up hope. He continues to cheer on his members, providing the example against which they shall be judged. There is no doubt that without his dedication, perseverance and sense of pride in what Revan is, it would not still exist. ~~~ OP Tra'an Reith (Obelisk)/AED/Plagueis


There's a thouseand ways to burn out in this club, a thousand ways to die in the Brotherhood. Eiko faces one of the worst every day. Leading a house comprised of the low-activity elders, this new Equite has worked to milk some kind of activity, any kind of work from these people. It's not an easy gig. Revan was conceived as a house where the tired and retired could hang out, where the adults with better things to do could hide and not be pestered to submit to a dozen low-effort competitions every week. Eiko has worked instead to try to further the Mythology of House Revan while working to incorporate great competition ideas and classic hard work into building a reluctant house to greatness. And while it's easy to get disillusioned and burned out by the lack of feedback from your members, I wanted to make sure that he knows that his work is not going unnoticed. Today, I am here to stand in solidarity with Eiko, to reiterate and congratulate his choice to follow the ancient chinese maxim of 'charging the enemy, so long as there is life'. Today, I am here to promote Eiko. Thank you again for your efforts. ~Muz Ashen, Dark Lord of the Sith

It is clear to see that Taig truly takes his position to heart. I have seen him do everything in his power to ensure the Shadow Academy is more than just a place for newbies to do some tests in. He has worked to expand and update the courses into ones that can be useful to the DB at large. He has attempted to work the SA into every facet of the DB, making it a staple of life for the club. However, it is his dedication to the Grind Path that truly sets him apart. The amount of work and effort required in this project is tremendous, and will truly change the way newer members are brought up in the club. He has fully immersed himself in this endeavour, and has taken it upon himself to see it through the end. For all of his hard work and dedication it is a pleasure to see Taig climb the Equite ranks once more


DJM Halcyon Taldrya Deputy Grand Master

Taigikori is a beast. His work since taking over headmaster has been multifaceted and outstanding. He regularly pushes for new programs of study in the Shadow Academy, with a new course being released every other month or so. His work to ingratiate the Shadow Academy into the Brotherhood, to move beyond the stereotypical 'home for noobies' that the Academy has been in the past has also been stellar, drawing correlations to the elite societies and upcoming possessions program to broaden the scope of the Academy. On top of all that, he has ground his fingers down to the bone working on a personal directive, the Grind Path. Running full tilt on many facets, Taigikori has proved that he is an invaluable Dark Councilor and is rapidly approaching legendary as a Headmaster. I feel that it is high time that this work and dedication is reflected in his rank, and progresses our Headmaster, Taigikori, one step closer to Elder. ~Muz Ashen, Dark Lord of the Sith
