Zehsaa has completed all of her promotion requirements and so much more. She has earned 3 ruby crescents since her last promotion, staggering for her rank. She's participated in 16 competitions and places highly on a consistent basis. Her work is always of exceptional quality, with well rounded activity covering gaming (earning 60 CFs), co-organising competitions, and active in the Shadow Academy. Furthermore, her contribution to both clan and brotherhood life is second to none, always available on telegram, mentoring less experienced artists and producing incredible original pieces of work for her clanmates. Zehsaa is one of a new golden generation in CSP and we're very proud to have her with us. Congratulations Z!

General Zentru'la, 2016-03-04 17:28:21 UTC

Zehsaa is on fire!!! She is so in-tune with everything that is going on in both her battle team and her clan. Zehsaa has a very evident presence in telegram chat, both in-clan, and the art club. Her art is a sight to behold for everyone, and she is very willing to use her talents to encourage and touch her friends. She is very a very prominent name in competitions and puts her best effort towards them. I can't wait to see what she will do next! :)

Alara Deathbane, 2016-03-04 14:15:06 UTC

What else can I say about Zehsaa other than that she is going from a shining star and becoming a blazing fireball within the clan! She's worked hard at getting to where she is, and continues to work hard to keep on progressing towards her goals. She has continued to make a name for herself, and has shown her love for fellow members and the club with her artistic pieces of work and constant communication with everyone. I can't wait to see what else she has in store.

Blade Mistress Shadow Nighthunter, 2016-03-04 16:24:24 UTC

To say that this promotion is long overdue is an understatement. If art had a society in the same way that writing and gaming do, this would be a non issue. Zehsaa would already be walking the ranks of Huntress and well on her way towards Knight. Zehsaa is a key member in what makes CSP great. Through exceptional participation both in competitions and in her Clan, she has proved her worth time and time again. She’s placed in a whole slew of competitions, she constantly provides her clanmates and other DJBers with pictures of her own making. This morning alone, I witnessed as she churned out about a dozen mini-me drawings for subscribers of the DB Art Club.

This exceptional member of our club deserves any and all recognition that can be bestowed upon her!

Rise, Huntress!

In addition to his previous efforts Kryy Vitaan has entered 14 competitions(taking his total to 23), passed 7 SA courses, cementing his position at rank 7 of the SA society, he destroyed the cluster of Earth requirement enabling him to reach GMRG IV. He has written over 3,000 words of character fiction, organised two competitions of his own and earned 3 degrees that fulfil the requirement instead of just one. Kryy has been waiting for the timer to tick down so he could be promoted to Knight and finally the time has come for him to take his place as the newest Knight in Plagueis. Well done Kryy!

Dr. Giyana Jurro, 2016-03-04 15:18:58 UTC

Since his last elevation, Nikola Valtiere Erinos has demonstrated the fortitude and dedication necessary to advance to the rank of Equite III in Clan Arcona. He has been an able-bodied leader, a mentor, and a participant over the past two years. I am honored to raise him to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the Loyalist Order.

Valtiere has participated in 55 competition and (co)Organized another 23 competitions since his last elevation. In that time, he has also submitted 2 PvP Matches, 5 PvE Activities, finished 2 ACC Battles, completed 3 Fiction Activities (2902 words!), passed 3 Shadow Academy courses and gained 1 Dark Side Degree. He also has collected a Grand Cross of the Dark Side (Extraordinary effort as QUA of HQD), Anteian Cross (Clan Involvement & ACE Pilot Program), 7 Crescents (1 Cr-A, 1 Cr-S, 4 Cr-E, 1 Cr-T), 5 Clusters of Fire, 11 Clusters of Ice, 22 Clusters of Earth, and 2 Scroll of the Master (Lexiconus & Kaiburr).

In this time, he also served as the Rollmaster of Clan Arcona for 7 months and Quaestor of House Qel-Droma for 7 months. I will let others discuss his efforts in these roles and his recent work on projects as a member of Soulfire and Galeres. In summary, this is long overdue and I am honored to see him elevated to his proper rank and begin work on his next.

Quaestor of Galeres

Eminent Ikarri Itinen, 2016-03-03 17:35:16 UTC

In addition to that which my counterpart Braecen has detailed above, Nikola Valtiere Erinos (hereafter known as ‘Will’) has been one of the stand-out members of the clan from the start. I remember when he joined during my tenure as Consul. Will was wide-eyed, bushy-tailed and eager to get started. This drive, this determination, this passion seemingly never left him as it does so many others. Since his last promotion, I’m pleased to say that Will has been instrumental to Arcona’s success. For his efforts during the Dark Crusade, Will earned 33 Seals of the Crusader whilst acting as the Quaestor for one of the most active houses in the Brotherhood - if this isn’t leading from the trenches, then I don’t know what is. In addition to this, he also earned 6 Seals of Revelation for his efforts during the Eleventh Great Jedi War.

Will served as Quaestor of House Qel-Droma for 7 Months during the Fading Light Vendetta. He was consistent, supportive, and effective in his management style. He was easily able to liaise with his colleagues and house members, and maintained strict email turnaround times which gave the house a level of stability that it had rarely seen in years past. In this capacity, he was one of the primary organisers of Operation: Figureheads alongside then Galeres Quaestor Cethgus Tiberius Entar. This was managed through an interactive spreadsheet which detailed the results for ease of review by the membership at large. During this event, there were 30 unique participants. Grading such a large amount of entries would be a daunting task for some, but Will took to it with ease. For his stellar efforts, Will earned a much deserved Grand Cross of the Dark Side.

Following his stint as Quaestor, Will also acted as the Clan Rollmaster for 8 months from February to October of 2015, during which time he mentored the clan’s journeymen through to the rank of Knight. For his efforts during this period, he was awarded a Seal of Loyalty and a much needed rest.

I don’t know if anyone who could say a bad word of Will. He is dedicated, passionate and talented. He has been deserving of the rank of Equite III for some time, and it is an honour to contribute to the recommendation.

Congratulations, Will. You’ve earned it.

Aedile, House Galeres

Wuntila Zratis Entar Arconae, 2016-03-03 17:34:10 UTC

As Galeres’ house leadership has detailed above Nikola Valtiere Erinos has been an instrumental part of Clan Arcona leadership for a long time. Since his stepping down from Rollmaster I think most of us expected him to take a break of sorts. this is however not what Will had in mind.

Since coming to Soulfire he’s been very involved in the development of the team’s new identity. This includes writing, editing and finally wikifying our new base of operations. He’s also been an active voice in our telegram group, not afraid to voice his opinion and get involved in anything and everything that requires involvement from our Battle Team members, House members, and Clan members.

This involvement doesn’t simply stay within Soulfire, Valtiere has been an active participant in several of the Clan wide competitions we have ran or are still running, including Arconan Gaming Dominance, Arconan Flash Series and Captain Arcona:Civil War (CA:CW).

Simply being an active member didn’t seem to be enough for him, so when he got the chance to be an integral part of the Ace Pilot Initiative he grasped it with both hands. When will starts a project, he makes sure the result nothing short of amazing. This is signified by the Anteian Cross he received for his work on the ACE Initiative.

All in all, from years of leadership to a battle team member, no matter what position Will is in he is and will always be an important member, a great example and part of the reason what makes Arcona what it is.

It is my pleasure to recommend you for the rank of Equite III, you’ve more than deserved it!

My jaw just about hit the floor when I saw that Strask has not been awarded a merit award in seven years. Since returning from the Rogues last August he has amassed a steady stream of activity including 320 Clusters of Earth, 34 Clusters of Fire, 6 Pendants of Blood, 1 Crescent with Diamond Star, 1 Crescent with Amethyst Star, 2 Crescents with Sapphire Star, 1 Crescent with Emerald Star, and 1 Scroll of Indoctrination. He is easily one of the most active members of our House.

The Equite ranks are not just about individual activity. They are also about taking an active role in your unit, engaging with other members and forging your own path. Strask is a regular fixture in our Telegram channel. He recruited Sul Ip in November and has taken an active role with him as his Master. Strask is fast returning to his status as a core member of Tarentum, and we are proud to have him. His elevation into the ranks of the Equites is overdue recognition of his hard work over the past months as well as a commitment to continuing to grow as a friend, a leader and a Tarenti. Congratulations, Strask!

Scion Tarentae, 2016-03-03 20:43:33 UTC

It has been almost 7 years since Strask's last promotion. In that time he has been Quaestor of House Tridens and Aedile of House Tarentum but most importantly he has been the Battle Team Seargent of Nekros Syndicate. He has helped Solas Night-Thorn turn the Battleteam into an active unit in little time.

He also provided various units of the Clan with cool 3D graphics for their logos which required 200+ man hours of meticulous work. He even found time to game with us in Diablo 3, helping me and Dox powerlevel to success.

Strask also earned two Dark Pundits in the Shadow Academy (Essentials and Vendetta) and has organized no less than 11 competitions and has participated in 20 competitions.

Strask just recently returned to Tarentum but despite some health issues and his new born baby just being born he has fulfilled his duties for Tarentum as he did in the past. Congratulations, Warrior Strask Rurra'bek!

Frosty Romanae Tarentae, 2016-02-29 20:27:46 UTC

Though his name is now Strask, I will forever call him Elols. I've seen him as a new member, as my one-time Aedile of House Tarentum, and as a returning core member of all that we are. Many of his most-selfless acts come in the form of amazing graphics; if all you see is "Ooh, shiny," then you ignore the already-mentioned hundreds of hours he puts into those. Elols is a giving man, and Tarentum is blessed of his generosity.

Elols is active, dedicated, and exhibits all of the quality traits we want to encourage and cultivate in all of our members. He is definitely one of our greatest examples. We love him, we are edified by his presence, and he absolutely deserves this promotion.

Congrats, pally!

Over the past 14 days, Malice has continued her steady rise up the ladder in the DJB. As one of our most active new members, Malice has completed and published her first character sheet, participated in five competitions, earning an Amethyst Crescent for her efforts, passed a total of 17 Shadow Academy Courses, elevating herself to SA Rank II, and completing an extremely detailed character history document in preparation for her character wiki page.

Malice is consistently active in the Clan telegram channel, and is an absolute joy to have in the group. The future is extremely bright for her, and I am absolutely thrilled to recommend her for promotion to Acolyte. Keep working, Malice! You'll be a knight in no time at this rate!

Master Dracaryis, 2016-03-03 17:15:42 UTC

Rins’zler recently rejoined House Qel-Droma after a long stint in the Rogues... which is a definite understatement, considering he led Battleteam Qel-Droma for just shy of two months from February to April of 2006. It’s not often you see a member return, much less one who led your House when it was still a Battleteam exactly a decade prior. As such, it is my absolute pleasure to be recommending this member to be promoted to the rank of Knight.

Since his last promotion, Rins’zler has been in rank twenty-eight days, earned two Dark Crosses, placed in two competitions, earning him a Sapphire and Quartz Crescent (These were in 2004 and link back to the main site - ACC Morph Competition & Phase I of the Monthly Clan Arcona Plotline). In this time, he has also earned a combined seventy-five (75) Clusters of Earth and Fire, written three-thousand (3000) words of fiction, successfully passed two leadership exams in the Shadow Academy (Leadership Management & Leadership Competitions) and earned the Dark Maven of Legends.

Though the automated process of Promotheus missed it, his dossier shows that Rins’zler also hosted three competitions: Choose A Motto, [Battleteam Qel-Droma] Team History and [Battleteam Qel-Droma] Design Our Home. Beyond that, he also completed a number of ACC Matches, visible through several of his Dark Crosses.

It’s been a long time coming, mate. Congratulations on attaining Knight!

Some people shoot through the Journeyman ranks, never really building a character around the ranks. Not so for Kalinor, or Rins’zler as he’s known today. Rins’zler has been working on this promotion off and on for a while as time and life allowed, and I’m very pleased to say that today he’s achieved it.

You came back with a vengeance this time, mate, and I’m proud of you for knocking out the last requirements so quickly. Ya done good.

Kordath Bleu
Rollmaster, Arcona

General Stres'tron'garmis, 2016-03-02 20:35:07 UTC

Rins’zler has been a model student. He has been attentive, eager, and ready to contribute at the drop of a hat. It’s difficult for people upon their return, especially after 9 years out of the club. I mean, I’m still struggling with the new site, and I’ve only been gone 18 months! This hasn’t stopped Rins’zler, though. Not one to fall at the first hurdle, Rins’zler has proven himself to be one of the most driven and dedicated students I have seen during my time in Arcona. Taking and retaking Shadow Academy course after Shadow Academy course whilst participating in competitions and learning the new Character Sheet systems and submitting revision after revision of updated information, he has proven himself to be more than worth of the rank Knight.

Since his last promotion (Over 11 years ago!), Rins’zler has earned himself 2 Dark Crosses, has passed a staggering 25 Shadow Academy Courses, earned 2 Degrees and organised 6 Competitions. This does not even take into account the 5 Competitions he has entered and 17 PvE Matches he has played.

I have been blown away by Rins’zler’s ability to rise to any challenge and deliver results. It has been a privilege to act as his master, and I look forward to recommending him for further promotion further down the line.

Well done, Rins’zler. Welcome to the big guns.

Wuntila Arconae,
Aedile, House Galeres,
Rins’zler’s Master

Wuntila Zratis Entar Arconae, 2016-03-02 20:36:09 UTC

Alishu has taken 9 courses earning 2 degrees in the SA since his last promotion, cementing his status at above the recommened rank 2 in the SA society. He has also been a regular presence on Telegram, entered 5 competitions, earned 4CIs from 2 fiction activities. He also has an approved character sheet on record, received his first merit award and fulfilled the time in rank requirement. It is for these reasons I deem Alishu worthy of a promotion to Acolyte. Keep going lil shu

Dr. Giyana Jurro, 2016-03-02 18:08:26 UTC

Tebbo Jensen, 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 be filed. Your accomplishments include:

• Have an approved character sheet on record
• Participate in 3 competitions
• Pass 8 Shadow Academy courses from the (Novitiate Hall) department(s)
• Pass Dark Brotherhood Basics Shadow Academy course

I will continue to watch your progress, Tebbo Jensen, 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,
