• Gain Trust Level 1 on the Dark Brotherhood Discourse Forums
• Pass 8 Shadow Academy courses from the (Journeyman Hall) department(s)

An expedited recommendation for your promotion has been transmitted to the Master-at-Arms.

What a long time coming this has been. I've known Dro for going on nine years now. We were both newcomers in Tridents many years ago, though he unfortunately spent a number of years between then and now chilling amongst the Rogues (which now that The Flash is on TV is a much cooler concept.)

Dro rejoined the ranks of the Brotherhood as a member of Odan-Urr back in December and has been kicking ass ever since. He spent eight years as a Jedi Hunter and now stands on the precipice of becoming the very first Jedi knighted within House Satele Shan.

His most recent triumph was claiming second place overall in the house event, Compass of Reason by placing in two of the sub competitions. He also recently placed in a Battle Team competition.

Dro, you're more than deserving of this promotion... and, well, it's about damn time!

Master Windos, 2015-05-11 20:40:20 UTC

Droveth Kathera Vectivi is one of the coolest guys I know, and I only met him last week! He has a unique blend of imagination, initiative, drive, and awesomeness. I may have only known Dro on a personal level for a week, but his presence and the sheer amount of effort have always been apparent.

In the 3060 days since his last promotion, he’s accumulated a grand collection of awards. He’s proven to be a skilled member, gathering nine crescents (1 Ruby, 1 Amethyst, 1 Sapphire, 3 Emerald and 3 Quartz), as well as a Dark Side Scroll. In the Shadow Academy, specifically since he joined Odan-Urr, he’s done 20 different courses. This has led to him getting the two Pundit degrees and a Dark Maven in Philosophy. His seven Clusters of Ice are a testament to his fictional talents. He’s also written a 1500 word fiction, and done a few run-on posts.

Aside from his various awards, Dro stands out. He’s active on the mailing list, and is always a cheerful and encouraging voice to others. What makes Dro special is his attitude, and I think it is what makes Dro potential leadership potential. He is imaginative, and has created a number of awesome storylines, one of which was a run-on called the Serpent of Jassat’ar, which other members enjoyed and participated in. The first time I talked to him was about a week ago, and we instantly struck it off. He’s proposed a number of ideas for the battle-team, and offered to help put them into action. His ideas are not only testament to his imagination and initiative, but are really good, and I will be using a few of them in the future!

Jedi Knight, in my eyes, is a milestone; one that signifies the pinnacle of Journeymen and one that highlights the potential of a member. Not only does Dro fit these criteria, but he is so much more than a member who’s just ticked all the boxes. Dro can do whatever he wants because he has the drive, the realism and the ideas to do it. In the future, I can see Dro leading a unit of his own, and I’m sure he will do a brilliant job. In fact, I may transfer over to his unit so I can witness it for myself! Droveth Kathera Vectivi, I fully endorse your promotion to Knight. You deserve it, man. Go and get your lightsaber, dude, and be proud.

Corvus Corax, 2015-05-10 21:52:49 UTC

I have the possibly unique honour of being both the Master and Aedile of the person who’ll be the First Knight of House Satele Shan. Although many of his last 3060 days since promotion were spent away from the Brotherhood, when he returned Odan-Urr found themselves with an awesome new active member and all-round benefit to the House, earning himself nine crescents (1 Ruby, 1 Amethyst, 1 Sapphire, 3 Emerald and 3 Quartz) and a Dark Side Scroll, alongside an Anteian Cross (and a previously earned Dark Cross) in the process of being one of our most active and , in my eyes, underrated members of the whole Clan.

Droveth is a powerhouse of activity, having completed 20 courses within the Shadow Academy and achieving 2 pundits (Vendetta and Essentials) alongside a more recently earned Dark Maven - Philosophy. After his completion of this chunk of Shadow Academy he turned his focus onto the broader aspects of this club, making some exceptional showings of his work in the 24 competitions he’s participated in since his last promotion, after finding enjoyment in the participation of these competitions he decided to give some back and run a competition of his own for the Clan. Furthermore showing his aptitude for fiction he has earned himself 7 Clusters of Ice whilst writing some extremely enjoyable fictions - His 1500 words character was just that and one of the better fictions i’ve read all year. Droveth holds his own character wiki page that has been reviewed and considered to be of sufficient quality to qualify toward his promotion.

What else is there to say about Droveth that isn’t shown by this? He is an active, good-willed soul and a strong part of this House and Clan, all of us are proud to have him with us and ecstatic to be the ones who get to award him with the promotion he needs and deserves; Always a presence on the mailers and a man with some very bright ideas and suggestions - even though he had quite a few extra hurdles to jump on his way, he never faltered. I am truly honoured to say that I was his Master toward the end and that he is, above all, a friend.

Rise, First Knight of Shan, Droveth Kathera Vectivi.

Mar Sûl, 2015-05-10 21:58:23 UTC

Droveth rocketed into Odan-Urr during the eleventh Great Jedi War, and since then he has maintained an excellent history of activity, and has made himself known as one of our best members. He has been a great influence on our Clan, and stands worthy of Knighthood as the first Knight of House Satele Shan. Congratulations, Droveth, well done!

Mandalorian Darcy Avarik, 2015-05-10 23:49:51 UTC

There is little left to list of Droveth's achievements that hasn't already been given an honourable mention from those following his progress. With that being said, Droveth was held as one of our most committed members towards attaining the coveted rank of Jedi Knight. While he did take a break from the Brotherhood before re-joining on the path of the light side, his work in this time shows that he is back, fully-armed and ready to tackle the Brotherhood. He's had some of the best mentorship I have seen, with Mar Sûl constantly gloating about the greatness of his apprentice. Despite myself and V'yr Vorsa having to attend therapy from his master, we have come to realize his greatness, and look forward to seeing him on his path to the Equite ranks. Congratulations!

Seer A'lora Kituri, 2015-05-11 04:42:55 UTC

You're already beginning to make a name for yourself, Itshim. I have heard reports from Clan Tarentum that you have managed to:

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

I have recommended you for immediate promotion.

Congratulations, and may the Force guide you, Novice,

I am thrilled to recommend Nashiro Kakos for promotion to the rank of Guardian. He has been in the rank for 14 days, and has been active the entire time. He's built his character sheet, fleshing out his character ready to use in fiction, along with then developing a 750 word character fiction approved by his Master. He's been active with competitions, taking part in 5, and winning 2 Clusters of Ice as well. He's passed 12 Shadow Academy exams, and managed to be elevated to rank 2 in the Shadow Academy Society.

Nashiro has been incredibly active and enthusiastic in his short time here, and I am honoured to reward those qualities by recommending him for promotion to Guardian.
