Ceballa LightBringer, 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:

• Logon to IRC and visit Clan channel
• Participate in 5 competitions
• Pass Dark Brotherhood Basics Shadow Academy course

I will continue to watch your progress, Ceballa LightBringer, but my direct intervention in your promotions must come to an end.

You will go far within this Brotherhood.

PRT Vanessa Rhode is the most active member of the Apostles of Syn and has been incredibly busy working through all of her promotion requirements over the past 52 days.

In that time, she has participated in five competitions, achieving a crescent for her third place finish in the Star Wars Caption Competition event. She further distinguished herself by co-organizing a fiction competition for the entire Dark Jedi Brotherhood, allowing members to describe how they built (or would build) their personal lightsaber. Also, she has published an excellent character sheet describing her characters likeness, traits and abilities!

Outside of working through her promotion requirements, Vanessa Rhode is extremely active in chats on the Clan IRC channel and consistently gets involved in battle team email discussions.

In view of these qualities and events, and Vanessa's demonstrated potential for increased responsibility, I strongly recommend her for promotion to the rank of Guardian.

Congrats on your promotion, Vanessa. You are a shining example of what a member of this club should be. Keep up the hard work!

Seyda's been a fantastic addition to Taldryan - not only is she active (hence the promotion), she's also fitting into our culture - and I expect her to be a proud member of the equite class before too long. Since her last promotion, Seyda has earned herself a Dark Cross, 3 Crescents (Amethyst, Topaz, and an Emerald), as well as 9 Clusters of Fire. In addition to completing two Shadow Academy Leadership courses, she was also promoted to Freshman in the Shadow Academy Society! She has been an active (and successful!) competitor, and is also active on IRC, regularly hanging out in #taldryan. I look forward to seeing what she'll do in the future - and I suspect it will be great things. Congratulations Seyda!

Howlader Taldrya, 2015-04-06 19:27:43 UTC

Seyda has been a joy to have in the Clan. She has plowed ahead in her activity, quickly running through what is required of her, while still being a truly communicative member of the Clan. Her consistent activity has brought her to this point, and I can't wait until she reaches that DJK milestone and keeps on going.

Congratulations, Seyda, and keep up the fantastic work!

Suur is a member of great talent, and exactly the kind of person Odan-Urr needs. Since joining Clan Odan-Urr, he's been participating to his best ability, having earned top placement in the puzzle competition from Tales of New Tython: Lost Civilization. This competition was the hardest puzzle the Brotherhood has seen in a while, being a translation from a barely-readable language without a perfect translation from basic. He managed to finish this decoding in less than an hour with only one mistake - the least amount out of no less than fourteen participants. I hope to see this activity spreading through our ranks in the months moving forward, as well as look towards his progress.

A'lora Kituri, 2015-04-06 20:16:44 UTC

Members like Suur are a dream come true for anyone in Leadership for this club. Without any prodding by Summit (quite the reverse) he jumped into IRC and quickly started chattign with other members. He also badgered me and a few of his other Clanmates into playing Diablo 3 with him. (This earned him 51 CFs, and GMRG Rank 2)

He was also a big participant in our recent Clan Wide competition participating in 2 of the events and winning 1st in one (netting him a Cr:R). In addition he has participated in 7 other competitions ranging from house to DJB wide level. He has also been a major player on the Shadow Academy taking over 20 courses and obtaining rank 2 in the SA Society.

For all these reasons I recommend Suur for an immediate promotion.

Bobecc Varga has quickly become one of Taldryan's up and coming stars. Ever since he joined the Clan, he's been a constant presence on IRC, and an active participant in both Clan and Brotherhood wide events. He's recently stepped up into the roll of Battleteam leader and has been a welcome addition to Taldryan's summit team. He's also been so gracious as to expose his real life girlfriend to this crazy crazy place, and we're all the better for it.

Basically, in the end, Bobecc is everything I could ask for out of a member of Taldryan. He's loyal, he's active, and he's dedicated to Taldryan and the Brotherhood. Therefore, it is with great honour that I promote him to the rank of Knight.

Congratulations Bobecc Varga, Knight of Taldryan!

Bobecc has been a fantastic addition not only to Taldryan, but to a club as a whole. He has done everything asked of him and then some, being a constant source of both activity and communication. He has stood tall for us during the GJW and has continued to be a strong new leader in the Clan.

It's always a good time when you see someone reach DJK, and I very much look forward to seeing Bobecc go even further. Congratulations, Bobecc! Keep up the fantastic work

Lord Halcyon, 2015-04-06 14:50:25 UTC

Bobecc has had a fantastic start to his Dark Jedi Brotherhood career. In a short amount of time he has successfully completed all of his assigned tasks to rise from the ranks of APP all the way to DJK. During this time he has assimilated the the Dark Brotherhood's culture, participated in a myriad of events, and even recruited his girlfriend (who looks like my sister). Bobecc has a bright future in front of him and will no doubt serve at the highest echelons of our club in the future. Great work Bobecc!

Grand Master Declan Roark, 2015-04-06 14:43:27 UTC

Bobecc Varga been a great journeyman for Taldryan - and I look forward to seeing what he will do in the future, including what he'll do with the Wardens as its Battleteam Leader (thus far, he's been doing a bang up job!). Since his last promotion, Bobecc has earned himself an Anteian Cross, a Crescent with Sapphire Star and 39 Clusters of Fire, he's also participated in about 10 competitions - and is currently in the midst of organizing his first! Bobecc is going to go far in this club, I think, because he's got the right disposition and drive amongst his clan mates, but he can also see upwards, where things need to go - and I look forward to him joining the ranks of Taldryan's finest one day. Congratulations!

Howlader Taldrya, 2015-04-06 14:56:17 UTC

Bobecc has been a beast since he joined. He has participated in a wide breadth of competitions, from run-ons to graphics to gaming to flash puzzles. He's been a strong presence in the gaming side of things, with heavy activity in both PvP and PvE. He's also been a constant presence on IRC and on the clan mailing list, adding that valued flavour to our community just by being there.

But it's not just his measurable activity that's been great - he has recently begun the steps down the road to being a strong leader. He contacted me within minutes of finding out that Raist had been promoted to Aedile, thus leaving open a Battleteam Leader position. In my mind, he'd always been my number one choice to fill the vacated spot, but his eagerness to serve really sealed the deal. He's been mentoring his new recruit, Seyda, who has also nearly reached DJK on her own as well. Finally, he has begun to give back to the community, having started to produce and run his own competitions for consumption of the general membership.

For all these reason, and the ones mentioned by my peers above and below, I am excited to see Bobecc earn the rank of Dark Jedi Knight!
