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.

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.

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

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,

Khaldrago Quincy is one of Tarentum's great gamers. Since his last promotion he has 7 competitions, has won two Crescents, 777 Cluster of Earth and 2 Pendants of Blood. His activity was so great that he managed to earn two merit awards in the form of a Dark Cross and a shiny Steel Cross.

He is a great ToR player, where he offers help to all who need it. He is a great guy on Telegram and Tarentum is lucky to have him. Since he joined our clan, which was less than 2 months ago, he has been a paragon of activity. Clan Tarentum thanks you for your service.

Congratulations, Knight Khaldrago Quincy!

.562. 1. 1. 1. 1. 51.

Since transferring to Rogues on January 10th, Khaldrago has racked up 562 Clusters of Earth, 1 Steel Cross, 1 Pendant of Blood, 1 Scroll of Indoctrination and 1 Crescent. That's the tangible chronicle of 51 days of activity. And while the tangible is impressive, the intangible is even more so. Every one of those 51 days includes raids and flashpoints and even just general bs'ing in Telegram or Teamspeak of helping people. Helping them gear. Helping them with questions. Helping to dispel misinformation about SWTOR.

That might seem remarkable for just 51 days, but it extends even to before he went into the Rogues. Khal has always made himself available to members of the Brotherhood when and how they've needed it - gearing, teaching mechanics, just to bs. Circumstances have returned to the Brotherhood a very valuable and dedicated asset. And I am sure that the future will outshine 51 days.

In the 24 days since her last promotion, Lilith has continued to work diligently to compete her promotion requirements. Beyond merely the time in rank required of her, Lilith has continued to communicate through email and the Clan channels, while completing her studies. She has participated in 10 competitions, placing in 1, while completing 2 Leadership Studies exams. In addition to those exams, she has reached Society Rank 4 for the Shadow Academy while completing a more than 2000 word fiction for her character's back story.

With these accomplishments in mind, I am honored to recommend Lilith for promotion to Hunter.

You're already beginning to make a name for yourself, Tyraal Bitshiver. I have heard reports from Clan Odan-Urr that you have managed to:

• Pass Any Shadow Academy course except (Test Of Lore,Trial Of Identity,Advancement Survey)

I have recommended you for immediate promotion.

Congratulations, and may the Force guide you, Novice,

Since his last promotion, Jake hasn't slowed down a bit on the gaming and activity front. Six more competitions under his belt, an Anteian and Dark Cross both for activity, and Three Sapphire Crescents prove that. Furthermore the 342 Clusters of Fire and 1050 Clusters of Earth are signs of his continued awesomeness.

With these solid signs of activity and gaming camaraderie with his fellows, I'm happy to put Jake Blazer in for his promotion to the rank of Neophyte!

Keep up the good work, Jake.

One of our wayward flock has returned, and can now finish the journey he started so long ago. It is my distinct honor to be able to recommend Godarrow to the full rank of Knight.

Having spent slightly more than 28 days in his current rank, he has had plenty of time to participate in the 8 competitions that are required for his rank. Of these 8, he has placed in at least 2 of them, which have earned him Crescents for his effort. An avid gamer, he has secured 12 Pendants of Blood, earned a whopping total of 2105 Clusters of Earth, and has reached up to rank 10 of the GMRG. In addition, he has earned two merit awards for his time spent as a gamer. Finally, he has written and completed an excellent character article on the Brotherhood wiki.

For all these achievements, and more, I hereby officially recommend his immediate promotion to the full rank of Knight. Godarrow, I think it is safe to say that you will be a powerhouse when it comes to gaming, and one that we will gladly adopt into the Naga Sadow family. Congratulations, you've more than earned it!

At long last, Godarrow has completed the final step on his path to Knighthood. Having returned to my apprenticeship from Rogue status recently, the meat of my recommendation will come from the time we served together within the DB SWTOR guild so many years ago.

First, let us cover his most recent endeavour. Godarrow was faced with the task of not only retconning his past to be more accurate to the DJB, but also filling in the blanks of his multi-year absence. He took to it with the focused determination I have always expected of him and was able to hammer out a new concept shortly after returning. With a little help, he managed to fully flesh out a quality character article for the wiki and attain approval.

Now, I get to cover his past. Godarrow was what can only be described as a vital organ within the workings of the DJB guild in SWTOR. He recruited actively, and was always around to engage and help members, caring almost nothing for his own progression so long as others were getting what they need. In this way, he became the go to man for ensuring new recruits were able to run gear grabs and complete the needed flashpoints. He was also a regular pickup for end-game raids, working with any member regardless of skill level. He was never "too good" to run low level raids that had absolutely no direct benefit to him. No, Godarrow was - and is - selfless so long as fun is to be had. This is a member that embodies the concept of "community" and I am so glad to see him finally elevated to the last step as a Journeyman, which is Knighthood.

Good job, Godarrow, well earned.
