Elwoode Silverstar, 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 been awarded 20 Clusters of Earth (A Cluster of Fire counts as two Clusters of Earth)
• Join Telegram or IRC, and visit Clan Channel
• Logon to the DJB Voice server
• Participate in 5 competitions
• Pass Dark Brotherhood Basics Shadow Academy course

I will continue to watch your progress, Elwoode Silverstar, but my direct intervention in your promotions must come to an end.

Since gaining the title of Runner, Kelviin, the Wookiee specialist of Shadow Gate and all around nice guy has kept himself busy. With 5 competitions participated in, 1 netted Crescent with Sapphire and a dozen Clusters of Fire, he's finished fulfilling the requirements for Courier!

So it's with great pleasure that I recommend him for this advancement, and I'm looking forward to his next one already!

Good job, mate!

General Stres'tron'garmis, 2016-11-17 00:16:43 UTC

For the past year, Rrogan Skar has been a constant, steady presence in Clan Arcona. He's not showy - he doesn't make a spectacle or brag about his accomplishments. He's quiet, and consistently active, always asking for work, never asking for awards. In some ways, I feel like this hurts him - people miss the numerous, little things he does to make the lives and workloads of those around him easier. But it is quintessentially Skar.

Since his promotion to Equite I over a year and a half ago, Skar has demonstrated laudable consistency in his activity. In addition to the two competitions he organized, he has participated in eighty, earning eleven Crescents in the process. His eleven thousand words of fiction and eleven ACC matches have earned him fifty-five Clusters of Ice, on top of his three Clusters of Graphite and one hundred Clusters of Fire and Earth. In that time, he has also garnered two Dark Crosses for his meritorious service to his House and his participation in Brotherhood activities.

In addition to his participation, he also served eight months on the Wiki Staff and six months as Battleteam Leader of Shadow Gate (four since his last promotion).

There's a lot that can be said about Skar. In addition to the aforementioned accomplishments, he is a constant, welcoming presence on Telegram. He always strives to help his teammates, helping to create and maintain a positive attitude and cheering for his peers. He's quick to volunteer, quick to revel in others' accomplishments, and unstinting in his devotion to both Arcona and his fellow Arconans.

Yes, there's a lot that can be said about Skar and his contributions. But the most important might be this: I can't imagine Shadow Gate, House Qel-Droma or Clan Arcona itself without him in it.

Congratulations, Skarbie! It's been a long time coming, but you've more than earned this.

I can’t stress how much I’ve enjoyed Skar’s presence in Shadow Gate. He aids in weaving together the sense of family we have in the form of team pride. Skar has not only been welcoming to our new recruits, but has also offered a helping hand and advice to a new leader, such as myself: he's a wonderful example of how a leader dedicates himself to their community even past holding a title. On the competition front, Skar has proven his namesake as the ‘WarKaleesh', participating in various competitions, from fictions to gaming and multimedia, all at the beck and call of Arcona.

As a working college student, Rrogon shows that it is possible to balance such a life with the DJB. I admire your tenacity, keep up the great work. Go get ‘em, WarKaleesh!

Proconsul Diyrian "Diy" Grivna, 2016-11-15 04:36:31 UTC

Rrogon Skar is one of the most reliably consistent members in Qel-Droma. He often asks for additional things to do and delivers in a timely manner. When a large event occurs, he is often the first person to rev the hype machine and challenge other members to get on his level. He is also an amazing entertainer and frequently bestows the blessing of his amazing voice amongst his House and Clans mates. Not only does he frequent chats to challenge others to “get on his level” he is also one of the most compassionate and empathetic people in Arcona, frequently putting the needs of others before himself. He has helped me write fictions, wiki pages, come up with comp ideas and was, at times, my primary motivator when I was BTL.

That being said, Skar is like everyone’s little brother which means we pick on him out of love. It also means that - at least for me personally - I would beat up half the Clan if his feelings were ever truly hurt and the best thing is; he would do the same for all of us. For being consistent; for being the glue that holds our dysFUNctional family together; for being an amazing help and support, not just to your Clan, but to your friends: Condragulations, on EQ2. <3

The last year has seen a lot of growth in the club and in Scholae Palatinae. Our growth and development here in CSP was thank in no small part to the relentless efforts of Lexiconus. Whether it be lore, skill sets, interactions with other members, or leading by example Lexic has made some tremendous strides these last twelve months.

From a raw numbers perspective, Lexic hits everything in the club hard and more frequently than imaginable. Since earning Equite 2, Lexic has participated in 150 total competitions. These competitions range from DJB wide to the House level. These efforts are the pinnacle of leading by example to his members in Imperium and have been crucial in helping drive many of our big events this year forward. He has organized/co-organized a further 21 total competitions.

His participation has brought him 40 PvP matches, 22 PvE matches, 10 ACC battles, and a whooping 38 different fiction activities with a total of 50,454 words written. He has completed 13 different SA exams, earning a further 3 degrees and launching him firmly into SA Society Rank XII. This past year has earned a wide array of medals as well. He has earned 1 Sapphire Blade, 1 Dark Cross, 5 Ruby Stars, 13 Amethyst Stars, 17 Sapphire Stars, 9 Emerald Stars, 7 PoB, 269 Clusters of Fire, 141 Clusters of Ice, 12 Clusters of Graphite, 6 Scrolls of Foundation, 2 Scroll of the Master, and 3 Legion of the Scholar.

While his incredible activity as a member stands so clearly on its own, Lexic has also spent the last year as an important part of the CSP command structure, with him now sitting at a most excellent 9 months as Quaestor for Imperium. He has had an outstanding and consistent run of being accessible, open, and direct with his members. He is on Telegram daily, interacting with all members of the clan. He pushes out regular and detailed reports. He is constantly looking out for his team, and the clan. If anyone has a question he jumps on it to answer. If people have issues they mention in roundabout ways, he picks up on them and brings them up.

He is constantly looking for ways to improve his own skills to better serve as QUA as well. He never shirks from asking questions or offering suggestions. He has suggested multiple ideas for both his house and clan to try to interact better with our members. When it comes to new member welcomes, he often emails new Imperium members before anyone else has even had a chance to see the new member email. Imperium continues to succeed due to his efforts and I am so incredibly thankful he continues to put up with me as his Consul. Lexic has done a lot of growing over this last year, both as a member and a leader, and I couldn’t be more proud of what he has accomplished.

At the end of the day, Lexic is the strong active member and leader we wish all members could emulate. Now after a year at Equite 2, I am most honored to recommend his advancement on to Equite 3. Congratulations Lexic, drinks are on you!

Lexiconus Qor is a dedicated member of the Dark Brotherhood and listens well to guidance and direction. His work alone in various wiki projects, Clan Summit chats, and various other projects have helped the Clan put together and ensure its backstory is properly written. He is in short the heavy stone in a running stream that can always be counted on to be there when you need it.

Given his heavy project focus and constant dedication for the last year, I recommend Lexiconus Qor be promoted to Equite 3.

Congrats!!! Drinks are on you!!!

Lexiconus has been ever-present on the CSP summit throughout his 12 months at Equite 2, and has maintained both incredible numbers in addition to his vast amount of work on things not picked up by the site. When a new member joins, Lex is always the first to send the invitation email. In every event, Lex is always near the top, maintaining extremely high levels of activity despite his commitment to the leaddership of his house.

Whether it be through project work, inspiring the members under his command, providing activity through competition hosting, or through his own exceptionally high level of activity, Lex leads by example with remarkable consistency over the last year that has showed no sign of slowing down.

Lexic has been a very strong leader and he has helped us with the wins we have gotten in the last few competitions. He has always been one to lead from the front and he is a shining example of why Imperium is what it is today. Congrats boss well deserved.

Tribune Kanal O'neill, 2016-11-14 00:51:15 UTC

Lexiconus, since my return to the club, has been an absolutely amazing leader. I came back as part of Imperium, and was made to immediately feel welcome. I’ve watched him guide and be there for members, as a friend and leader. He is quick to welcome new members, always on top of emails, and seems to practically live on Telegram where he is so easy to approach and talk to. He is an inspiration, one that has proved a driving force within the clan. I know I personally bounce almost every idea I have off this fine gentleman on a near daily basis!

Lexiconus has worked hard, taken part in an incredible number of competitions, completed many SA exams, encouraged and inspired many new members. What is more… is that he shows no signs of slowing down.

Lexiconus, keep up the absolutely amazing work! Your passion, your drive and your welcoming demeanor are an inspiration to us all.

Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do!
