Jedi Hunter upside has now come to the end of his knighthood trials. A strong personality and a welcome face in email, irc, and telegram, it has been a thrill to see upside progress through the journeymen ranks.

As a strong gamer, upside has earned 414 Clusters of Fire, and 4 Pendants of Blood. This has pushed him to GMRG Rank 5, and a showing as one of CSPs great gamers. He has participated in 16 different competitions, including May the Fourth celebrations and part of the GJW. He has also pulled in a Dark Cross for his great efforts. He has also finished work on an approved Character Wiki page.

Upside is a great CSP member and I couldn't be more thrilled at seeing him advance to being a Knight. Congratulations Upside, drinks are on you!

Upside comes from the gamer group, so it was easy and fun for him to find a flash game for a CSP competition to run with me and discover the "backstage" part of viewing submissions and ranking for awards. In addition, he was very enthusiastic about the cooperative creative process for his char Wiki page that I dragged him though, even admitting that he enjoyed figuring out the personal details and background for his character, that he had never decided on before I asked a slew of questions. He is very positive in general and posts support for others, with a contagious cheerfulness that can pierce even the cloudiest of days. He has learned a few lessons on his perilous journey deeper into the Dark Side. I am proud to see that he has embraced the challenge and risen to Dark Jedi Knight!

While the other have spoken to Upside's accomplishments, which are well known around CSP and the dynamic gamer that we value highly, I want to speak to Upside's worthiness for promotion based on the intangibles. Upside is a venerable stalwart member of CSP. Since his arrival he has maintained a consistently high level of activity and dedication as evinced by his award count and competition metrics. While this is well and good, as a leader I know I can't count on Upside and I know the output will be strong and numerals. Beyond gaming and competitions, seeing this gamer develop the character sheet was a welcome transition, showing growth and an understanding of the need and want to develop not only as a member of CSP but as a future leader within the clan. I know that with this promotion Upside will progress to the next level with increased determination and fortitude. I am truly excited to see how far this member's trajectory can and will rise.

When I brought upside over here to the djb he quickly got into games like diablo 3 and others. He isn't very into writing but he does put lots of effort into gaming. It has been a priveledge and an honor to train him up with others help. Glad to see him take his knighthood.

Protector Calindra has been hitting it out of the park with her activity here. She quickly jumped into the on going activities of the club, and has already shown a strong work ethic and great enthusiasm for Star Wars. She has participated in 6 competitions, including two fictions, and the run-on from the recently concluded CNS/CSP Red Fury Event. She has taken many SA exams, earning rank 2 in the SA Society, including earning perfect scores on both ACC Exams, qualifying her for participation in the ACC.

All-in-all, Calindra is showing everyone how to be an awesome member, and is ready to advance to the rank of Guardian. Congratulations Calindra!

Lord Idris Adenn, 2015-05-29 18:31:57 UTC

It has come the time for our newest addition to Clan Scholae Palatinae to be elevated. She has only been here a mere 15 days, but in that time has proved a valuable asset to the Clan. This was evident through our last inter Clan competition with CNS "Red Fury" where I witnessed Calindra's name in many different areas of the competition. She also earned herself a 3rd place finish winning a Crescent with Sapphire Star in the process.

Since her arrival, Calindra has also participated in 6 competitions, passed 5 Shadow Academy courses, to include 2 Dark Pundit degrees which earned her SA Rank II, in addition to also qualifying for the ACC. All this while also spending the minimum 14 days required in rank. I look forward to her progress in CSP!

Maximus Alvinius, 2015-05-29 18:05:44 UTC

Calindra has qualified at the ACC, taken several combat studies courses, and participated in the most recent cooperative event with CNS, that alone is activity enough to earn her a promotion to Guardian.

However, she joined with a passion to write and create stories, and is doing so with her own style and vision. I look forward to how she expands her character through her ongoing personal fictions and expanding wiki page, and how her character will one day fit into the Imperialistic Clan Scholae Palatinae.

Congratulations on this promotion Calindra, you've earned it.

Itshim has completed the necessary requirements for promotion to the rank of Guardian. These accomplishments include:

• 14 or more days in rank
• Have an approved character sheet on record
• Logon to IRC and visit Clan channel
• Participate in 5 competitions
• Pass 12 Shadow Academy courses, excluding Dark Brotherhood Basics, Test Of Lore, Advancement Survey, and excluding courses from the Journeyman Hall department
• Reach SA Society Rank 2

Besided all of that, Itshim is a regular on our clan Telegram group. He had no problems integrating into our group and I feel his just as fun and knowledgeable as one of the oldies now. That must mean that the work he's been doing with his Master, Pel, is paying off. I expect great things, in the future, from Itshim and I look forward seeing his progress.

Thank you for your had work!
