Ji'Kip, 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
• Have been awarded 10 Clusters of Earth (A Cluster of Fire counts as two Clusters of Earth)
• Join Telegram or IRC, and visit Clan Channel
• Participate in 3 competitions
• Pass the Comms 103: DJBWiki (An Introduction) Shadow Academy Course
• Pass the Dark Brotherhood Basics Shadow Academy Course

I will continue to watch your progress, Ji'Kip, 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,

Lucine Vasano has been a growing wildfire among the ranks of Arcona’s Journeymen. She has accomplished a large number of feats, such as co-organizing two of the AVD competitions: An Arconan Valetine and Everbody Loves Candy. The woman has built herself a character sheet to describe who and what Lucine is all about, applying it to fictions already. With 5 competitions participated in, she has obtained 7 Clusters of Ice from the 3,706 words of fiction she’s typed. Since her last promotion, she was rewarded with 1 Crescent with Topaz Star and 2 Crescents with Sapphire Stars. Lucine has also passed 9 SA courses, gaining a Dark Pundit in Vendetta after reaching Neophyte. As a newly joined member of the Inquisitorius, I suspect we will see more great fiction coming from this wonderful JM.

Thus, I recommend Lucine Vasano for promotion to Acolyte. Fantastic work, Lucine! Keep it up and enjoy yourself, my sistapprentice.

You're already beginning to make a name for yourself, Jamar Luc. I have heard reports from House Liath 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,

Ash is a great member and is not only active by taking part in competitions and earning himself a Crescent with a Emerald Star, 5 Pendant's of Blood but has also earned himself a Scroll of foundation for earning 5 SA Degrees and taking 54 SA courses. In his short time within the Clan and as my apprentice he inspired me to go back and finish the last courses I needed to earn my Dark Sage. This is the type of member we want in this club ones that are not only active but ones that inspire older members to accomplish their own goals as well.

Ashael is someone I know will go far within the DJB and it's exciting to watch him grow. Keep it up my friend and Congratulations Hunter Ashael!

Dain Caithis has satisfied all of the Promotheus requirements for his present rank. He is an active member of our Clan, including being a regular presence in our Clan and Deathsworn team chats. He's doing exceptionally well in his progress, and we are definitely grateful to have him.

Congrats Dain!

Dain Cathis is not only my apprentice, but he is my friend. Since he joined the DJB he has been eager to learn and participate whenever he can. Since his last promotion he has participated in 9 competitions, earned 3 Topaz Crescents, 2 Sapphire Crescents, and 2 Emerald Crescents. In addition he has earned INQ: II and SA: II, and had an approved character sheet added to his profile. This is in addition to being active on Telegram in both his Battleteam and our Clan's channels.

Dain has become an active and vital member of Deathsworn, and is someone who should go far. It is my feeling that his knowledge has surpassed that of a Neophyte; he is more than ready to be elevated to the rank of Acolyte.

Rise, Acolyte Dain Cathis. Rise and continue to serve your Clan, this is but a small taste of the incredible power we can offer you should you continue to immerse yourself in the Dark side of the Force.

Since Kromtal Stormfyld aka Darknyte was demoted almost 10 years ago he lost interested in this club and joined the Rogues for almost 7 years. But since 2015 he has steadily came back to activity and has been a member of Tarentum for the last 2 years. Since his demotion, Kromtal has participated in 38 competitions and has won 16 Crescents. He is an avid gamer, raking in 357 Clusters of Earth and 16 Pendants of Blood.

His most impressive actions are in the Shadow Academy where he holds the Maxima Cum Laude with 73 taken or retaken exams, 2 Dark Pundits, 9 Dark Maven and 4 Dark Savant degrees.

Kromtal has even taken up leadership positions. He was Quaestor of House Gladius in 2007, for 3 months (interesting enough I served as an Aedile under him) and most recently he was the Battleteam leader of Deathsworn for 5 months. He has posted 4 reports and has helped his members a great deal. He trained me as Aedile to step up as Quaestor and has increased Deathsworn's numbers.

For all his efforts he has been awarded with a Dark Cross and an Anteian Cross and before his demotion he has earned 2 Grand Crosses, one of which was for his great feats in the Sixth Great Jedi War.

My opinion is that Kromtal Stormfyld has paid his dues and is a full functioning member of DB. He put his disreputable behavior in the past and now I think he's ready to step back in the Equites ranks. I am glad I could offer him this promotion. Congratulations, Warrior Kromtal Stormfyld!

Frosty Romanae Tarentae, 2017-02-20 05:35:18 UTC

I've known Darknyte a long time. I've known him as DN, I've known him as KS. I've known him as a lot of other names. Interestingly enough, when he and I got to know each other at first, we didn't like each other. But then I took time to actually get to know him.

Darknyte has a reputation in some circles. In Tarentum, though, he has always been a stalwart defender of the Clan, and a huge proponent for new members. He worked in the Shadow Academy under Spears and Anshar because he believed in making this Club a better place. He believed then (as he does now) that new members are our future. Like the rest of us, he still goofs off and has fun, but Darknyte has matured.

Darknyte has been a Knight for a long time. He came back to the Brotherhood to be with friends. When he came back, he checked #tarentum on IRC, but found it empty. We had already transitioned to Telegram. Instead of drifting away, he went to COU. He still wanted to chill and have fun, and wanted to be an active part of a Clan. He's since been back in Tarentum and has shown a continued devotion to being a vital, supporting veteran to our newer members. He's showing activity and a willingness to take part in those activities he enjoys.

We don't have a reason to fear him, or suspect him. And as Frosty has exhibited, we have every reason to see how he has matured and elevate him back to the Equite ranks. I look forward to seeing more good work out of him.

Congrats, dude.

Knight Lucifer Romanov. It's hard to find someone who can serve as a better example of what an EQ in the Dark Brotherhood should look like. His activity and service as BTL, along with the merit awards he's received and constant communication are examples that future generations would do well to follow.

Of the 8 months Lucifer has spent at the rank of knight, 5 of them were spent as Grey Wolf BTL before RL forced him to step down. Despite this, Lucifer’s activity has not slowed down. Since his last promotion, his activity has earned him

2 Steel Crosses. He has also organized 12 competitions including a 13 sub competition container that ran for several months. He has also managed to earn through his participation in 70 competitions, 26 cresents. Specifically, he has earned 1 crescent with a topaz star, 7 with amethyst stars, 10 with sapphire stars, 5 with emerald stars and 3 with ruby stars . In addition he has earned a cluster of Ice ,4 pendants of blood , 3 clusters of graphite , 156 clusters of earth and 737 clusters of fire . He has also passed 6 SA courses obtaining a Dark Maven in leadership.

His constant presence on Telegram is always welcome, as he always offers his input on important topics or checks on members. He's always nice to talk to and willing to help with projects where he can. With activity like this, I feel certain that Lucifer is deservant of an Equite promotion.

Lucifer is well deserving of this promotion, he has been a good friend and I know him well always active, and playing on Battle Front, a Former Leader of Grey Wolf who's leadership was outstanding, he has been a Rock and without his support and success Grey Wolf would not be here.
