In the time since his last promotion, about seven years ago, in between several stints in the rogues, Darkblade has been quite the whirlwind of activity. He organised 28 competitions, and co-organised a further 5. He has also participated in 275 competitions, earning himself 97 Crescents (2 Diamond, 6 Ruby, 35 Amethyst, 19 Sapphire, 28 Emerald, and 7 Topaz). Since his last elevation, he has been the recipient of 1 Amethyst Kukri, 2 Sapphire Blades, 1 Grand Cross, 2 Anteian Crosses, and a Dark Cross. In 2017 he was awarded a Seal of Loyalty. In the Rite of Suppremacy: Meridian, he earned himself a Seal of Fury and in the 13th Great Jedi War, he earned 6 Seals of Discord. Finally, in the Rite of Suppremacy: Escalation, he gave a great showing of activity, evidenced by collecting 2 Silver Novae, 2 Bronze Novae, and 16 Seals of Enmity. He has also earned 394 Clusters of Fire, 5 Pendants of Blood, and 61 Clusters of Graphite. He has participated in 4 RP Sessions, for a total of 5.555 words. Darkblade has completed 35 Shadow Academy Courses, earning himself 9 degrees. On the side of Societies, he’s elevated his rank in the various societies 18 times.

However it is in fiction that Darkblade has been showing off his skills. Since his last promotion, he participated in 3 Run-Ons, 16 individual fiction events, and 4 ACC matches. He has written a grand total of 21.613 words, earning himself 49 Clusters of Ice. On top of this, he has earned himself 2 Dark Side Scrolls for contributions to the DJBWiki.

On the social side, Darkblade has been a well-regarded member of the Clan, and has been a solidly active presence on Discord. He’s always up to help others and offers advice when and where he can.

Darkblade, I may not have been in Taldryan for long (under a month still), but you’ve already proven yourself an active, pleasant, sociable Taldryanite. It truly is a pleasure to have you in the Clan. Keep up the good work and force me to write you other reccs. It is with great pride that I am able to promote you into the final Equite rank. I expect to see you amongst the Elders before too long. For now though, go enjoy being at the top of the Equite Tier, you’ve more than earned this!!

Vyrese Palestar, you continue to impress. You're growing more competent each day and you will surely rival the Council when the time is right. You have met the requirements for promotion, and a recommendation has been filed.

I will continue to watch your progress, Vyrese Palestar, 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,

There are some things that are just hard to equate, like how Eechee has already made his way to Equite. But there's no denying it, the numbers don't lie, he's earned 6,818xp on his way to EQ1. The Wookie-Racoon-Manbearpig out of Kiast has continued to surprise, astound, and horrify us, as he should, reminding us that his character originally comes from Galactic Florida. Humor aside, Eechee has been a great addition to Clan Odan-Urr and The Brotherhood as a whole, routinely showing up and showing out throughout competitions and in our Discord, making a name for himself with well-placed, often groan-inducing, puns and a love of Button. Since his last promotion he's taken part in 62 different competitions ( 15 of which being Containers), co-organized 4 competitions of his own, received 6 society ranks, increasing his steading in the GMRG and and Inquisitorious both, as well as earning a Grand Cross, 3 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 4 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 4 Crescents with Emerald Stars, and 207 Clusters of Fire. A man who is not afraid to jump up and take on a task, I'm proud of what he has accomplished so far, and seeing more members of my so-called Wolfepack of recruits finding their own legs in The Brotherhood.

Ever onwards, Eechee. I look forward to the promotions ahead, as you catch up to, and surpass me.
