First Jade, then you Omnora! You certainly haven't been resting on your laurels, always doing something, no matter how big or small.

In total,you have participated in 11 competitions since your last promotion and earned the following awards;

Steel Cross x1

Crescent with Sapphire Star x1

On top of this, you have also ranked up in the SA!

Congratulations on your promotion, Omnora! You'll catch up to Jade in no time. ;)

Since Kodo's last promotion, he has participated in 9 competitions, earning 1 crescent with Topaz Star and 144 Clusters of Fire. With this in mind, Kodo Obrim has reached the required 2150 XP to reach the rank of Journeyman 3.

Jade Hext.

Since coming to Taldryan, you have been one of our most active Journeymen in a long time. Not only do you constantly kick butt in competitions, having done 62 since your last promotion; with 241 Clusters of Fire in addition. Youve also contributed to 4 separate RP events, adding in almost 2500 words and earning the Republic an impressive 111k credits.

As this is your Equite promotion however, I want to recognize something else. Reaching the equites is a feat of itself, demonstrating growth and continued commitment.

And that growth which I want to recognize, is your overall dedication and commitment to Taldryan. In Discord, you have been incredibly social with everyone from the Clan all the way to general chat, always and ever eager to play games with people. (Myself, even, though my schedule around that time of day prevents it).

You always seek out new things, wanting to grow and develop yourself further which can no further be evident than your drive to help make Taldryan the great place it is; offering advice and being helpful to other members, opening trying to involve others in things you do, and even remaining here because you adore our community and the people within Taldryan so much, even when other clans fit your style and focus as a member better. Despite that, you remain with us carving your own niche to help yourself fit better and using that as fuel to push others.

For you are the embodiment of what it means to be a Brotherhood Within A Brotherhood. What it means to be Taldryan. Because without question, Taldryan is a better place today because of your efforts.

That said, this is something that you have undoubtedly earned in my eyes and the eyes of the summit, and is our way as a Clan to say thank you for everything you have done until this point. We hope your efforts reflect upon others and that you take this and continue to ascend even further beyond where you are now. I could even see you on Summit someday as well with your drive.

I am truly honest when I say these words of Palpatine, that we look forward to your career with great interest. Welcome to the Equites.

Great work, Jade. Keep it up.

It hasn't been that long since Nemo was last promoted, but in the 4 or so months since his last elevation he has racked up an extraordinary amount of accolades.

He has competed in 225 Competitions, Taking home 4 Cr-D, 4 CR-R, 18 Cr-A, 7 Cr-S, 6 Cr-E, and 1 Cr-t and 1 Cr-Q, He's completed two fictions for over 5000 words written, earned 10 clusters of ice, 8 clusters of Fire, ranked up in societies 3 times, and earned a scroll of the master.

Nemo has gone above and beyond the participation game as well. He's become an integral part of our community, helping one of our newer members through the Journeymen ranks to Knighthood. Nemo has been engaged on just about every front and he's brought with him a vigor and excitement for getting involved in what the Clan is doing. It is always exciting to see Equites grow into the core of the DBs personnel assets, but it's a real pleasure to see them do so while having fun. Nemo have been a great asset to Clan Scholae Palatinae and we are very glad to have him.

His insight and interest has helped push forward other members of the Clan. Serving in this informal mentoring role is really the aim of an Equite as they push forward towards Elder. With this promotion, Nemo will take one step closer to those hallowed ranks and I am absolutely certain that he will do so with poise and class as he has done in achieving this rank. Congratulations on the promotion, Nemo. Your hard work and drive do not go unnoticed. Keep up the fantastic job! Drinks are on you!

Thran Occasus-Palpatine, 2024-05-28 22:36:34 UTC

It's been great having Nemo apart of our Clan. He has been incredible active and it's a priviledge to see him progress so far since his return to the Clan. Since his last promotion, he got 3rd place overall in our Clan's recent major event of Chapter 2: The Coming Storm. He has written over 5346 words of fiction, participated in 225 competitions, earned 4 Crescents with Diamond Star, 4 Ruby, 18 Amethyst, 7 Sapphire, 6 Emerald, a Topaz and a Quartz Star. He's ranked up 3 more times in our societies and he's been active in our character development chat. He's also earned a Scroll of the Master for mentoring Kagon Agra to Knighthood, and gained 8 Clusters of Fire, 10 of Ice, and 8 of Graphite, just to name a few things he has accomplished.

It's such an honor to be able to promote and award our members for all their hard work. He has absolutely earned this next promotion into the Equite ranks. Congrats, Nemo! Drinks on you!

CyberGuy Quiritatio Entar has reached the required 167500 XP to reach the rank of Elder 2.

In the past decade and a half, I have only briefly interacted with CyberGuy - usually when he came onto IRC (?) or Telegram (?) to give random hellos. I know CyberGuy was instrumental in numerous pre-2013 versions of the Brotherhood website, either building it directly or keeping it alive through years worth of coding changes. In 2024, we know the criticality of our website, we do everything on it - and we are only able to do that thanks to the work of CyberGuy in the 2000s. Thank you.

For your Service to the Brotherhood (tm) in the past, and perhaps one day the future? You are elevated to the rank of Master. Congratulations and I hope you read this!

Howlader Taldrya, 2024-05-28 14:34:40 UTC

Your journey continues, Omnora.

Though it has been slow and steady, it has been ever persistent and the fruits of your labors now come to the front as you reach the mid-point of the Journeyman ranks. It made me smile when I saw that you had reached this milestone this morning, and I look forward to seeing what else you are able to do!

Granted, I know you just got your Character Sheet done; unfortunately you'll have to redo it a bit to account for the extra points you will now have. But given how much fun you had, I bet you'll have just the same doing this.

Congratulations Om! You've earned it!

Ciara is one of our longest serving members and and has held many leadership positions in her time, most recently Headmaster. In her time as HM, Ciara helped organize and run RoS: Escalation, GJW XV, and the very successful and popular SARLACC tournament in the ACC. Her most lasting contribution, however, was redeveloping the SA Society from its original form into the Aurora Collegium of Sciences with revamped rewards and lore.

She was model member of the DC, and I'm very happy to say that Ciara has earned the required 167500 XP to reach the rank of Elder 2. Congratulations!

Duga Taldrya Arkarso has reached the required 167500 XP to reach the rank of Elder 2. Duga led Clan Taldryan to Great Jedi War victories, carries the title of Taldrya, and served his club for many years. From our brief interactions in Battleteam Old Folks' Home, he is not a jackass. For this, and his overal service to Taldryan and the Brotherhood, he is promoted! Congratulations!

Howlader Taldrya, 2024-05-28 00:10:47 UTC

The new XP system to promote our club members to Elder ranks is long overdue. This system takes away a large part of the subjective nature of Elder promotions and in turn awards our members for being active in the Dark Jedi Brotherhood community.

Duga is a member that benefits from this new system and deservingly so. He was an active participant in nearly every form of our club's activities and he was a leader who led his clan to the highest achievements. His 223k career XP puts him in a category very few of our members will ever achieve and is a testament to how much effort he put into our club.

Congrats Duga! This is overdue and well deserved.

Grand Master Declan Roark, 2024-05-26 15:20:32 UTC

It has been fantastic to see the new XP policy give many of our older members a deserving medal or promotion. Duga is more than deserving of this promotion, as he was a pillar of Taldryan during his time in the club. He was a true leader of the Clan, leading it from the front as well as acting in a upstanding manner.

Congrats on this long overdue promotion, Duga!

Lord Halcyon, 2024-05-27 23:00:23 UTC

It seems that not a day goes past where I do not hear about you, Vyrese Palestar. Your superiors have sent glowing records regarding your accomplishments, which together add up to no less than 354 XP!

An expedited recommendation for your promotion has been transmitted to the Master-at-Arms.

May the Force guide you, Proselyte,
