The word I would use to most characterize Delak is passionate. From his friends, to his work as a BTL, to his art, to his desire to be the very best, Delak is always 100% committed and involved with what he is doing. In the last 8 months, Delak has excelled as a battle team leader, pushing Shadow Guard to remain an active force for the clan. He helped foster an interunit alliance with the Tarentum battle team, Grey Wolf, where he did the legs work of creating an 8 competition battle team event, one of the only one’s I’ve ever seen attempted at that level.

Delak has remained the ever active participant, completing 101 competitions, 17 of which were in our recent clan feud against Naga Sadow, in which he secured himself an amazing 4th overall placement. He has brought him 2 Diamond Stars, 7 Ruby Stars, 4 Amethyst Stars, 6 Sapphire Stars, and 6 Emerald Stars. He has won some 695 Clusters of Fire, 131 Clusters of Earth, 18 Clusters of Ice, a Legion of the Scholar, and a Steel Cross. He has participated in 4 ACC matches, and always jumps to challenge the instant someone says they are interested in having a match.

Delak is a powerhouse of activity, and the definition of someone who never gives up pushing for the very best he can be. As thanks for his efforts, I recommend he be advanced on in the Equite ranks. Congratulations Delak, drinks are on you!

Delak Krennel has been a member that constantly puts himself forward for the Clan. He has never shied away from responsibility and is eager to take on responsibility as he has done as a Battleteam Leader. He has led the young Shadow Gaurd BT within Imperium for 8 months now wih ambition and pride for his team of members. He is eager to make sure that his team gives the best that he can offer to them.

Delak has earned 25 crescents and a steel cross for his efforts. He is ambitious to help out whenever possible that is in the best interest for others in the clan. He has participated in 102 competitions while organized 9 events for the enjoyment of members around him. He is an avid gamer of the clan with 695 clusters of fire and 131 clusters of earth!

Dealk Krennel is a member of the clan that shines within the group to bring whatever he can whenever he can to the table despite how busy he may be. He does his best and puts his team and others before himself. I look forward to see his team grow and himself grow under his tenure here. Congrats on a job well done! Drinks on You!

When it comes to gaming or art, Delak is always a member to consider. Though not always a winner, his drive to keep improving and moving forward no matter what earns him the respect he deserves to be considered for this promotion. As he's not a member of my House, I cannot talk numbers, but I've seen him working harder than anyone else to get us going and winning when we have needed him. Though there's room for improvement, his promotion to the next rank in the Equites is something that he has worked hard for, and I'm glad to see that it's finally being put into the table.

Well done, Delak, about time to get here!

Rosh Nyine, 2016-08-16 07:14:33 UTC

Alright. Now, this guy here is the epitome of passion. We speak of a guy who knows what he wants in life and never stops chasing that dream. Once Delak sets his mind to something, nothing short of a nuclear blast will stop him. I have personally watched him draw picture after picture with reckless abandon for the past year, never once throwing his hands up in defeat no matter what comments he received. And it pays off on a daily basis. With each passing week he gets better and better and some day, he will rival the best artists in the DJB.

And this is a single example out of many.

He hit the ground running and established himself early on as a key member of the Palatinaean force in the Shattered Ties vendetta. To say he lead by example doesn’t do his achievements justice. Not only did he bring his A game to those aspects of the club he masters, he managed to churn out some of his very best fictional works, often wowwing myself as a judge.

This guy’s passion is contagious and constantly challenges those around him to be their very best.

For this and his stellar activity over the last year, I congratulate him!

Stand tall, Delak. You are an important member of our clan.

Thank you for all your efforts.

Delak Krennel. Even the name inspires others to be innovative. When I began my term here as Quaestor, I was moving into office just as he was, so we were practically learning about leadership together. Through those hard months of building the house up, reforming its name and contacting members across a field of experience levels, we developed a strict regime that Imperium uses today. In many ways, I can say that Delak has shaped his battleteam into an active, fresh and successful group. This level of hard work, and being the first battleteam to grace this house, leaves a very high pedestal for his successors to follow.

It was during the CNS/CSP Feud that Imperium needed Delak the most, and he did not cower from the challenge. By giving his best even through real life challenges, his focus turned on gaining the most participation and highest submission quality in his team, Delak pushed others to be and do better than themselves. In conclusion, he proved very capable of beating the odds and came 4th overall in the feud. His battleplan was very nicely awarded 2nd place, too!

Delak, guardian, thank you for your service as my right-hand man. The drinks are on you!

Quaestor of House Imperium

Dr. Lexiconus Qor, 2016-08-16 11:56:27 UTC

Delak is a great all rounder in terms of his activity with an amazing participation record, participating in over 100 competitions since his promotion to Warrior. This activity has come from a mix of gaming, fiction, and art, and the sheer number of submissions is exemplary of Delak's constant desire to try and improve.

On the leadership side, Delak has served as Battleteam leader of Shadow Guard for the entirety of his time as Warrior. During this time he has hosted a cross-clan battleteam event with Grey Wolf of Tarentum, fostering inter-clan relations, organised 9 competitions within the team, and members of Shadow Guard are consistently among the most active in the clan.

General Zentru'la, 2016-08-16 17:56:22 UTC

Delak. A name you won't soon forget. His dedication to the clan and House Imperium is superb. I got to watch his progress through a House Feud and Clan Feud. Both times, he strove to do his very best. In the process, he led from the front and served as a shining example of how you feud. Simply put, Delak is a force to be reckoned with in competitions and serves his House well.

In addition to his superb activity and placement, Delak has shown great initiative in recruiting. Through his efforts, Imperium acquired several new members and strengthened the group in the process. He also pushed his Battle team forward during times of strife. More importantly, he has been the steady rock of Shadow Gate.

Overall, I congratulate your efforts, Delak. This promotion to Battlemaster is well earned and I salute you. Enjoy and be merry. CONGRATZ!

Pours a few bottles of mead over Delak's head.

Christopher Winchester, or as we call him Nero, has been a member of House Hoth almost 3 months now and during that time he has been a very active and impressive member of not only the House, but the Clan as a whole. So, Nero has definitely has integrated himself into the House and brought with him his drive, determination and a slew of activity with him.

Since his last promotion 2 years ago, Nero has an impressive resume to his name. During this time, he served as BTL for 13 days, Aedile for 6 months and currently has held a M:MAA position for the last 11 months! So clearly Nero is one that isn’t afraid of responsibility and a hefty workload. If that wasn’t impressive enough he also organized 3 competitions, co-organized 9 competitions and participated in 97 competitions earning himself a Steel Cross, an Anteian Cross, a Dark Cross, a Crescent with Ruby Star, 2 Crescents with Amethyst Star, 3 Crescents with Sapphire Star, 9 Crescents with Emerald Star, 3 Crescents with Topaz Star, 10 Pendants of Blood, 1582 Clusters of Fire, 3 Clusters of Ice for 1794 run-on words, 162 Clusters of Earth, 1 Scroll of Introduction for recruiting Aysteda and 3 Legion of the Scholar!

Nero has hit the ground running in Hoth and to show this he recently went 8 for 9 comps in the most recent Clan Event: Homecoming and finished 5th overall. He definitely showed up when the House needed him the most and it even inspired me and other members of the House to participate more in the event.

We can spend days talking about his numbers, but for me it’s the person that has impressed me the most. He can be a pain from time and time but he is always putting his views and ideas out there. Even if they might not be the popular way to think about things he at least brings a different viewpoint to the discussion and that a rare and great thing to have in any unit. Nero is always there is offer suggestions and how to improve how comps are designed and ran. Not to mention he will always give feedback on any comp he takes part in good or bad he lets you know how to make the next one better.

OK lets face it, Nero talks ALOT, he makes his thoughts and opinion known even when it to the chagrin to his superiors and he gets others to voice theirs as well. So to some this may be a sign of a trouble member, but I see it as an honest and no holds barred feedback source to know where and when I can improve. Not only for my sake, but for the entire House. So I’m glad Nero is around to give the Summit the feedback we desperately need.

At this time it’s not only my pleasure but it’s my honor to recommend Christopher Winchester for his promotion to EQ2, Congratulations Nero, you more than earned this!

Edgar Drachen, Aedile of House Hoth

Ghost Edgar Drachen, 2016-08-17 21:44:07 UTC

I will try to not repeat what has been covered in detail by others, but I will say that Nero has made a splash in Odan-Urr with an active and vocal presence. The enthusiasm he has brought to the Clan and absolute recklessness with which he chews through our content has made him one of our most prominent members. In our most recent Clan event he was one event shy of perfect participation. He’s also been a shot in the arm to our gaming community, reaching GMRG X and the top nine in the current quarter. On a more personal level Nero has become my concious of sorts. I can always rely on him to give me the ground level perspective on what’s going on in the Clan. He’s a solid member of the Clan and a fine person to game with or call your friend.

Congrats bro!

Councillor Turel Sorenn, 2016-08-17 00:41:10 UTC

Long story short, Nero has been a fantastic addition to House Hoth and Odan-Urr. His sheer willingness to get things done is something that can be seen in his every day activities within the Brotherhood. Always around when someone needs a gaming partner, at least for the games he plays, and always going as far as he can in any competition or event, Nero brings a positive attitude.

I want to thank you for everything you've done, Nero. You are a stellar member and I'm proud to know that you're with us in COU and House Hoth. Congratulations on your well deserved promotion!

Arcia Cortel, Quaestor of Hoth

Rear Admiral Arcia Cortel, 2016-08-17 00:46:13 UTC

Oh, Little Nero. Your abandoning of me seems to have done good work, which his buddies in COU have gone into great depth about. Here's the thing that I admire about Nero, and I hope he continues to do even after leaving Tal. Nero learned one of the most important things about leadership in this club - and it's something that people seem to have lost (and therefore, I harp on it) - knowing when it's time to go. When Nero stepped down as Dinaari's Aedile in February, he did not need to be hinted at, told, yelled at, or worse still, fired. Nero was able to look at himself, his contributions to his house, clan, and the club as a whole, and realized he needed to move on - and his unit needed fresh blood. That is a trait that is especially rare in the Brotherhood these days, I am thankful that he has it, and I hope he continues to grow and pass that particular trait onto others in the future - everyone needs it. Congrats, Little Nero!

Howlader Taldrya, 2016-08-17 16:55:20 UTC

Junazee is the textbook example of what we mean when we say "sustained activity over time." Since her last promotion in November, Juna has consistently been one of Satele Shan's most active members. This activity has earned her 2 Steel Crosses since becoming an Equite.

A gamer at heart, Juna has taken in just shy of two thousand awards for gaming: across 229 matches, she's earned 15 Crescents, 9 Pendants of Blood, 214 Clusters of Earth, and a staggering 1716 Crescents of Fire. In total, she's participated in 93 competitions since November.

Juna is generally fairly quiet, sticking to smaller channels on Telegram, but she's a fixture on voice chat. Those who've joined her for Overwatch, Battlefront, or Star Conflict can confirm that she's a joy to hang out with during her marathon late-night game sessions.

Thanks for the excellent activity, Juna! I look forward to all the award recs yet to come.

Alethia Archenksova,
Aedile, Satele Shan

Moff Alethia Archenksova, 2016-08-17 19:28:28 UTC

Juna is the kind of member who makes the Clan and the Brotherhood a more fun place to be. She is one of Odan-Urr's top gamers who is, as of the writing of this, currently #8 in the GMRG leaderboard for 3rd Quarter 2016, putting her in the hunt for one of the coveted GMRG XII slots. Beyond her presence in Clan channels and epic gaming levels she is also one of our most reliable competitors. She recently went 5/9 competitions in the last Clan event and was a strong participant in our feud with Plagueis.

Juna, thanks for everything you do for the Clan and generally just being awesome.

Turel Sorenn

Proconsul, Clan Odan-Urr

Councillor Turel Sorenn, 2016-08-14 16:02:19 UTC

Junazee is a pleasure to have on the battleteam. She is a kindred spirit with gaming, always down for pazaak, overwatch or battlefront, providing an entertaining and enjoyable gaming session. Her gaming skill is quite impressive and she always creates a light and fun environment either with gaming or any djb chat platform. She can always be counted on to represent StO for different competitions for the house or clan. I am more than happy to recommend her for EQ2.

Congrats Juna!

Adept Farrin Xies Tarentae, 2016-08-17 15:29:46 UTC

Since her last promotion in November, Aaleeshah has lived up to the ideals of an Equite: sustained activity over time, service to her House, and a sterling example of good character and a positive attitude.

In terms of activity, Aaleeshah emerged as one of the preeminent gamers in COU and the Brotherhood as a whole last winter. Across 201 submitted activities, Aalee has clawed her way up to GMRG X, earning 999 Clusters of Fire, 207 Clusters of Earth, and 4 Pendants of Blood in the process. This fits with her general pattern of activity, as she has participated in 64 competitions and taken home a whopping 21 Crescents, including two of the coveted Diamond Stars. Aalee even dipped her toes into writing, earning a Cluster of Ice along with all of her gaming awards.

Aalee has been the Battleteam Leader of Striketeam Ooroo for several months, and has organized 6 competitions for her team. She created and maintains the STO Telegram channel. Her activity and service have earned her a Steel Cross and an Anteian Cross since her promotion, and I have no doubt there are many more awards to come.

I've been alongside, directly below, and directly above Aalee in the Clan hierarchy, and I can personally attest that she treats all members the same: kindly, with enthusiasm, and never with so much as a negative word. That she maintains an affable, can-do attitude when things are going well is wonderful, but that she maintains that attitude even when under significant stress is even more impressive.

Aaleeshah, you are one of Satele Shan's greatest assets. Congratulations, and keep up the good work.

Alethia Archenksova,
Aedile, Satele Shan

Moff Alethia Archenksova, 2016-08-16 18:28:27 UTC

Aaleeshah has been a strong gamer and a consistent competitor in our Clan events, setting a strong standard for her team. Her quiet dedication both to her team and the Clan make her an essential member of our summit.

Thanks for all that you do for the Clan and your team! Congrats on EQ2.

Turel Sorenn

Proconsul, Clan Odan-Urr

Councillor Turel Sorenn, 2016-08-14 16:53:48 UTC

Where to start with Aaleeshah? I could start with her impressive number of awards and activities but others will discuss those better then I. So I rather focus oh her drive, her spirit, her attention to detail, her love for her team and more importantly her determination. All of which have impressed me from the first time we meet.

Aalee is always thinking on how to drive not only her team forward but also how to push herself just enough to be one of the best battleteam leaders I have had the pleasure to know and work with. She runs the team in a strong professional but yet fun manner in which we all know that her strike team will always show up in events.

She also is one heck of a gaming partner, when her schedule allows she is always looking to get a group together to not only earn clusters for the DJB but also just get together and have some fun. Even when I'm not in a good mood her kind and friendly personality definitely makes being in the DJB just a bit better.

It's not only a pleasure but a extreme honor to endorse Aaleeshah's EQ2 promotion she more than deserves it!

Congratulations Aalee!

Tahiri has been a fount of activity in Tarentum for some time now, rising quickly through the ranks and taking part in nearly all the different aspects the Dark Brotherhood has to offer. Since her last promotion only about a month ago she has participated in 21 competitions from all categories, and organized two of her own. She wrote 1500 words of fiction, passed a Shadow Academy course, came home with 10 crescents and some of every kind of cluster as well as a Pendant of Blood. She also earned two Dark Crosses for her efforts. The only thing I see missing is the ACC, but I'm sure we'll see her there in the future.

The point is that since joining in November, Tahiri jumped straight into the deep end and has been a strong swimmer ever since. Besides activity she is an active participant on Telegram and is making more friends within the Clan. She is one of the strongest Journeymen I've seen in awhile.

Reaching Knighthood is the pinnacle of a lot of members' experience in the Dark Brotherhood, but I do not think it will be the last promotion for Tahiri. It is the point at which your attention must turn from the advancement of yourself to the advancement of the group as a whole, whether that is your Battle Team, your House, or your Clan. It is the first time that you can take on your own apprentice and begin to teach what you have learned. It is a point where you can start to look for positions and responsibilities that can have a wider range of influence over others' experience in the club. Based on her activity and attitude I am pleased to recommend Tahiri for Knighthood, and I greatly look forward to seeing her sphere of influence grow within Tarentum not only as a participant, but now as a leader and a teacher.

Scion Tarentae, 2016-08-16 14:39:10 UTC

If all Journeymen could follow the example of Tahiri Drakon Night-Thorn, our participation ratings would go through the ceiling. There aren't many Clan-wide competitions in which this lady didn't participate. Participation is one thing... Placing in these comps another... Well done on those Crescents

Already in her early days, I could tell that Tahiri would be Knighted soon. I had great expectations... and she lived up to all of them!

Tarentum would not be the same without you, you're one of the members that I not only like to call my Clan-mate, but my family as well.

Tarentum adds a KNIGHT to its rank! RISE!

Ranarr Kul-Tarentae, 2016-08-13 21:26:20 UTC

Tahiri has been working tirelessly to foster competition and conversation in Tarentum. She is a positive influence on all of us, and has a great attitude. She really does help motivate the next generation of Tarentum to be the life and longevity that will make the Clan of Life and Death a continued vital part of the Club. The Brotherhood cannot be whole without Tarentum, and we are not complete without members like Tahiri. She is a wonderful example to us all.

Congratulations, and stand among us as a true warrior of the Dark Side. Good job, Tahiri!

-Beef

Master Zsarion Bloodfyre, 2016-08-16 00:51:06 UTC

Tahiri has really stepped up her game to become one of Tarentum's most valuable Journeyman, or should I say Journeywoman. :) She's great to be around on Telegram. She is helpful to everyone in need and at the same time she does each and every competition we the summit host. She's a great example on how every Tarenti should be. She's been killing it in both gaming and fiction departments. She has her own, now household name, competition which involves cypher decoding.

Clan Tarentum, loves Tahiri, and I look forward seeing her rise through the ranks as Tarentum's next top star. Congratulations, Knight Tahiri Drakon!

Frosty Romanae Tarentae, 2016-08-16 06:27:54 UTC

What can I say about Tahiri Drakon Night-Thorn? Well aside from the fact that she has made proud at every moment in her time with the Brotherhood? Well, she is an absolute embodiment of what I have tried to pass on to my students. And has always given 110% to everything she does. She has only recently embraced the Sith philosophy, but despite that she has embraced it fully. And while she still has much to learn of the Force and the Dark Side, I am certain that there is no more that I can teach her. It is time for her to forge her own path. I am proud to see her move from the role of a student to the role of teacher. I am happy to now call her a sister in the Dark Side. Congrats Knight Tahiri Drakon Night-Thorn.

Raist, Raistypoo, “God Dammit Raist.” Those are some of the many nicknames that I have for Raistline Taldrya Majere, and they are nothing if not terms of endearment – and they describe the respect and admiration that I have for Raist as a person, a member of the Brotherhood, a leader in Taldryan, and ultimately, a leader in the Brotherhood. Since Raist’s last promotion in November of 2014 (meaning he meets the promotion guidelines’ minimum time in grade), he’s served as House Ektrosis’ Quaestor for nearly ten months, approximately four additional months as its Aedile, and four months prior to that the Battleteam Leader of the Wardens. Said differently, Raist exceeds the minimum time in leadership positions as set of forth in the promotion guidelines. Throughout that time, Raist has guided his units through the creation of competitions (having created or help create 23 competitions in his time), the writing of reports (10 Quaestor, 7, Aedile, 6 Battleteam), and generally being around for his members. Bobecc Varga, his former Aedile (and successor as Quaestor) details Raist’s performance as an individual member of this club below, but I want to go a little more detail on who and what Raist is as a person (and liberally steal from Yacko’s glowing recommendation in Raist’s Sapphire Blade).

Raist has been a member of the Brotherhood since the 1990s, and in all that time, he’s been the same consistent and honest guy. It’s not that Raist keeps his head down and does his work (and lots of it) – that is true, it’s just the manner in which he does it. He strives to better his battleteam, his house, his clan, and ultimately himself through hard work, and personal effort. He does not politic, and he does not get into pissing matches with others – that’s just not his way. He did not see the next rung up the leadership as a personal goal for his own benefit or his own power (or ego?) – he wanted to pursue those positions to better himself and better Taldryan. He stayed as Ektrosis’ Quaestor as long as he felt he was doing the position justice, and then? He came to the summit – and said he needed to go. Raist knew it was time, and that is the sign of a great leader – and it’s something that few in the Brotherhood possess, and even fewer act on.

For his service to Clan Taldryan and the Dark Brotherhood over the past year and a half, Raistline Taldrya Majere is elevated to Augur!

God Dammit Raist, congratulations!

Howlader Taldrya, 2016-08-09 04:46:18 UTC

Raistline Taldrya has been an incredible asset to Taldryan, an incredible superior, and an all around pleasant guy. It was sad to see Raist finally depart with Summit back in April, I had worked with him since my start on Summit, and he has helped me a tremendous amount, he is a true leader.

A great example of this is his Scroll of the Master for guiding Djasei Brevis to the rank of Knight. Which is why it's unsurprising that he has been awarded such things like a Sapphire Blade, and a Steel Cross since his last promotion for his tremendous work in Taldryan.

On top of being a spectacular leader, he is also incredibly active. Raist has competed in a whopping 137 competitions since his last promotion earning himself some proud shinies to display including; 4 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 6 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 10 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 9 Crescents with Emerald Stars, 4 Crescents with Topaz Stars. To go along with all of the competitions he has competed in he has made a handful of them himself. Creating 18 competitions, and co-organizing 4 others. In the gaming side of things he has earned 5 Pendants Blood, 182 Clusters of Fire, 310 Clusters of Earth battling in 72 PvP matches, and in 30 PvE battles. In the world of fiction, he has competed in 6 fiction competitions writing almost 3000 words of Fiction, earning himself 6 Clusters of Ice. It doesn't end there either, he has completed 13 courses in the Shadow Academy earning another Degree, a Dark Pundit for his knowledge on Vendettas. Raist has managed to maintain a grade of almost 96% in his studies.

Raist, you have brought incredible honor to Taldryan, and you deserve to bear its name, thank you for all of your services, you deserve way more appreciation, and recognition for your continued service. It’s been an honor working with you and congratulations, Augur Raistline Taldrya Majere.

Bobecc Varga, 2016-08-05 20:22:00 UTC

What else can I say about Raist that I haven't already said at least once before?

He's awesome. He does things. He works hard for Taldryan, and he puts the Clan ahead of himself and any selfish desires that he may or may not have. He's good people, that Raist, and he deserves the promotion to KPN (because he's oldschool Krath and I am gunna let him decide who he is, not Mav).

Well done Raisty.

Yacks

Keirdagh Taldrya Cantor, 2016-08-05 22:11:22 UTC

Raistline. What a guy. I've been back in the club for a few years now and he's been a steady and friendly presence throughout. He's been my right-hand man more times that I can count and was a great resource and help while we were leading Wardens and Ektrosis together. I have a hard time putting to words how valuable he was - he's been in this club for ages and ages and had held a bunch of leadership positions. He remembers the old days (not quite as far back as the old bums like Yacks or Howie, but far enough) and is able to take those memories and turn them into something enjoyable for the membership. I don't want to re-hash everything everyone else said, but the key take-away that every one of us agree on is that Raist has always been an active and valuable contributor for Tal in every role he's been in. He's earned himself this promo!
