Some people dance around the requirements for advancement in the Equite ranks. Others bulldoze their way through written and unwritten requirements with tenacity, zeal, and flair. Ernordeth Puer-Irae is someone that has become a tour de force in the both the Arcona and the Brotherhood community. For this, I eagerly submit him for elevation into the upper echelons of the Equite ranks.

Since his last elevation, Ernordeth has collected a myriad of awards: an Amethyst Kukri, two Steel Crosses, twenty one crescents (2 Cr-D, 4 Cr-R, 2 Cr-A, 4 Cr-S, 6 Cr-E, 1 Cr-T, 2 Cr-Q), seventeen (17) Pendants of Blood, 1832 Clusters of Fire, 4007 Clusters of Earth, that is 17 PvP Matches & 649 PvE Activities, and six (6) Scrolls of Foundation. All of this was attained through his participation in eighty five (85) submissions to competitions since his last elevation.

In addition to outstanding personal activity, he has been a bastion of leadership to Arcona and the Brotherhood at large. He served the past ten months as Praetor: FIST; for his work, he received an Amethyst Kukri from Valhavoc. He served an additional two months as Magistrate: FIST before that. He served the Shadow Academy in two different stints as a Docent for a total of five months; which our Praetor: Head Master will comment on below. During his time in Arcona, he has also held the positions of Battle Team Sergeant, Battle Team Leader, and Aedile for a total of five months cumulative leadership at the Clan level. He did not stop there, however, serving both as a Magistrate: Grand Master for three months and a Recruitment Staff Member for a month.

For exceptional activity over the past year, I recommend Ernordeth for advancement to the rank of Third Tier Equite. Congratulations. An award well earned.

What does one say about the being that is Ernordeth? He’s extremely active in the realm of gaming and has begun breaking out of his comfort zone again to do other kinds of competitions. His Telegram presence is one of the most consistent amongst the Clan and one of the most unique by far. He requested placement in the Nighthawk team about a month into myself taking over as team leader and I’ve not regretted his joining once since then. Ernor’s competitive nature and drive has lead to a friendly rivalry with several of his fellow members that has lead to an explosion of gaming activity from the team and Arcona overall. I’m proud of what he’s achieved and look forward to what he does next.

I’m also proud to say he’s been an active and capable member of the Clan even while doing his Praetor Fisting duties, never neglecting his duties in the team either. Ernor, you deserve this, it’s nice to see it happen mate.

Ernordeth and I joined the Brotherhood quite literally moments apart -13560 and 13561. Though we began in different Clans, he and I have known one another since the first few weeks of joining the Brotherhood. We raced to Dark Jedi Knight, we became Magistrates to the Fist, and then leaders within Arcona. Ernordeth has consistently ensured that he raised the stakes and kept me on my toes as I chased his success. Considering the amount the level he has garnered, it will be some time before I could hope to catch up to him.

Others have spoken of his activity, of the awards he has accrued and positions held. I would rather speak to Ernordeth’s impact as a member of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. He is nearly always available to answer questions both internally within Arcona and in his larger role as Praetor to the Fist. When there is any question as to the contents of a competition, of how to accomplish something, or just general ideas for how to help members remain active, Ernordeth never hesitates to offer suggestion.

Though he is a leader in title, he is also a leader in action. Helping throughout the last year to train and build members to be able to participate in events for Destiny, Battlefront, partake in Flash Games hosted by the Fist’s Office, etc. His actions have led to more promotions and awards than many members could ever claim, simply by being willing to work with others to build their own success within the Club.

For your help to the Brotherhood at large, your aid in building Arcona and finally setting the bar for success. I am honored to recommend Ernordeth for promotion to the third tier of the Equites.

Many voices here have spoken on Ernodeth’s behalf about his competitive activity — gaming and otherwise — his Brotherhood leadership, his extensive FIST-office service, and his constant chatter and availability. I would like to touch, just a moment, on how his attitude and work ethic influence each of these things, and how they make him a member that truly gives back to the club and deserves another Equite rank.

Ernordeth is an unceasing positive force. The guy is like inertia — you cannot stop him once he gets moving (or at least, you’re very hard pressed). He is passionate and believes in making the people around him laugh, relax, and have fun. He is passionate about other people being passionate. And it is this that bleeds into all his gaming with other members of the Brotherhood, his extremely eager FIST staff ministrations, and his interaction with the club as a whole. When even the smallest bit of exciting Star Wars or Battlefront news pops up, when he finds something he knows will engage and delight other members, when that next Gaming Update goes up, whatever it is, he shares it (usually to every channel he’s in). When someone has a gaming question or curiosity, he’s the first person people go to and the first to answer. When a member is looking to engage, he chatters, befriends and pushes them towards the latest competitions or a round of Destiny with others.

Lots of solid numbers do a good member make, but it is the attitude behind those figures that make great ones. Ernor has that bright attitude and community-driven mindset that makes him excellent. Congratulations, Battlelord.

I first became aware of Ernordeth in late July of 2014 when Headmaster Solari and myself decided he was the best applicant for the position of Docent overseeing the DJBWiki courses. He resigned from this post in february 2015 - having served with honour and conviction. During this time as grader for these courses, he helped maintain and keep them up to date. He was asked to return to this position until a replacement could be found and served for another week or two before finally retiring.

He resigned from the SA Staff to fully focus on his duties as P:FIST (january 2014) and continues to serve in this capacity. However, this has not hindered his dedication to the Shadow Academy. Ernordeth is generally the person keeping the courses of the Gaming Department up to date and also the driving force behind publishing new courses. He was the principal author of the newest SA course: Gaming 102: Fist-o-matic which went live on the 11th of november 2015.

He has recently returned to us, as the FIST has seen fit to appoint him Docent of all courses relating to gaming in the Shadow Academy.

Overall, Ernordeth is - in my opinion (as P:HM) - a dedicated and hardworking member of this club who has the rare ability to see beyond his own field of expertise. His dedication to his duties as P:FIST have led him to help improve those aspects of the Shadow Academy that border the jurisdiction of the FIST and I honestly believe he is equally active in those parts of the FIST domain that border other areas. His dedication to any task/duty given to him is the principal reason I am recommending he be promoted to the next rank.

Ernordeth's contributions as my Praetor have surpassed my expectations. The bulk of his work was covered in the Amethyst Kukri recommendation I had written for him in early October. Since that time Ernor has continued to perform admirably.

In the last two months Ernor's workload has been increased as he took on the responsibility to provide regular Gaming Updates to the Club. In addition we brought in three new Magistrates to the Fist Staff, Ernor took on the task of briefing them their job responsibilities, expectations on how to perform review on Gaming Submissions, and ensuring that regular competitions are being run. The most public of Ernor's contributions was related to the play testing of Battlefront the week prior to its release. He willingly used his limited EA Access time (10 hours max) to run every type of game mode available in the game, provided feedback and recommendations on Cluster values, and then he ran a bunch again to answer questions related to the game.

Ernor performed all the activities related to creating the Gaming Platform, Gaming Activities, and Gaming Activity Modifiers for Battlefront which allow the site to award Clusters after submission. All of this was complete prior to the actual launch date of Battlefront, so members of the Club would be able to begin earning rewards for their game time immediately on November 17th.

Overall Ernor has consistently performed above his current rank of Battlemaster and in my opinion has more than earned this promotion to Battlelord. Congratulations Ernor! Keep up the great work you've done for the gamers of the Club!
