Since joining Clan Scholae Palatinae, Titius has quickly found a place in our little community. Titius has a great presence on discord, engaging in all manner of conversations. Titius has also been racking up mountains of activity, ranging from RP, to Shadow Academy, to Gaming. Titius is participating on all fronts. It's quite impressive. Titius has quickly climbed the ranks and his voracious appetite for engagement has been a wonderful thing to watch. His go-getter attitude is infectious and as a result he has brought that same fire out in others around him.

It is a great honor to elevate Titius to the rank of Journeyman 4. I look forward to seeing what is in store for him as he begins the climb into the Equite ranks. Congratulations Titius!

Yeoman Titius Osseus has reached the required 2500 XP to reach the rank of Journeyman 4.

Acolyte Bril Teg Arga keeps making headway up the Brotherhood's ranks, earning this promotion with ease after accumulating the necessary 1450 XP. He has served House Ventress and Clan Plagueis honorably for fifteen days now, and today is his fifteenth day as an Acolyte. He has taken part in 17 different tournaments within those brief two weeks, along with submitting 9 gaming activities, earning 84 Clusters of Earth. Additionally, he has been performing exceptionally well in the Societies, surpassing Rank 2 in the Grand Master's Royal Guard, Rank 1 in the Shroud Syndicate, and Rank 4 in the Shadow Academy. He has earned both a Dark Cross and an Anteian Cross during his time as an Acolyte for all of these accomplishments and more.

Even though he keeps himself occupied with all of this work, Bril is frequently active in the Clan discussion on the Brotherhood Discord. He is a notable Clan member, and if he keeps up this kind of dedication, I can only predict greatness for him in the future. This advancement has been earned and richly deserved. Bril, congratulations.

For the past two years, Revak has worked ceaselessly to sustain and build COU's thriving community. He's the latest in a line of confident COU CONs, and he took to it naturally. He has been a competition beast, running over 100 comps and participating in nearly 300. He's earned hundreds of crescents and clusters and led from the front in the last two vendettas, completing nearly even event. Since his last promotion, he has earned two SBs and a Ruby Scepter.

I am happy to add him to the ranks of the Elders. Congratulations, Revak!

Lord Dacien Victae, 2023-04-20 17:25:18 UTC

Revak's efforts to help Odan-Urr and keep it running over the past several years have been nothing short of monolithic in nature. The very fact I can cite that he's organized ninety-four competitions since his promotion two years ago is proof enough of that, as proven by his multitude of awards. Having earned a Ruby Scepter, two Sapphire Blades, and a Grand Cross is no small feat by any measurement, but it's just the start of all he has done. Even after having arranged the better part of a hundred of his own competitions, he still found the time to also raise Bexa Nalrella to the rank of Knight, and participate in over three hundred competitions, winning placements in more than sixty of them. Then, as if all of this was not enough, he has to his name since his last promotion one hundred and seventy-six Clusters of Graphite, ninety-six Clusters of Ice, and one hundred and seventy-six Clusters of Fire, and an outstanding five hundred and seventeen Clusters of Earth.

Yet to boil down Revak's efforts to just a series of numbers would be a disservice to him. While this undeniably plays a part, it's his qualities as a leader that stand out the most here. There's never a moment where he lacks a clear vision of what to do next or even basic ideas on how to keep things organized and the Clan moving. Be that just nudging Quaestors with basic reminders on what to get on with or throwing out ideas for us to question, he's willing to both offer the Odan-Urr a clear way ahead but gives every opportunity to improve, criticize, or even just clarify what we'll be doing next. He doesn't simply want blind obedience, nor does he promote his subordinates based on how often they can say "yes, sir!", internal politics, or even how much they'll enjoy having a position of authority over others. Instead, he selects people on how well they will help Clan Odan-Urr, improving both our community and their own skills at the same time.

Clan Odan-Urr and the Brotherhood are both fortunate to have Revak as a member. For this reason, I am very happy to second his promotion to the first grade of Elder.

Nikora Rhan, 2023-04-09 11:36:55 UTC

Revak is good at what he does; which is providing new content for his members, keeping them active and engaged, and ensuring his clan is thriving. Under his watch, Odan-Urr joined the Pro-Bowl - basically the largest non-vendetta event around - ensuring his members got to participate with the members of five other clans. He's active in both club-wide and Odan-Urr settings, maintains a positive relationship with basically every member he comes across, and is a proponent of the club coming together and putting past differences aside. Since he took over as Consul he's embodied what an Elder should be - someone who supports the club at large, and puts in the work to ensure not just his own clan, but the whole community, is strong while maintaining his own activity levels. Revak without a doubt deserves this promotion.

Congratulations.

General Zxyl Bes'uliik, 2023-04-10 19:01:40 UTC

Revak K’Urr has been a stable bedrock for Odan-Urr for almost 4 years now. I vividly recall a newly-minted Sunrider member sending me a very well-down competition entry for a new fictional group and having a lot of ideas to share about how to improve the Clan. I remember thinking “wow, I have to get him into leadership”. Not long after while he was chilling on a boat, I managed to snag him as Quaestor of Sunrider. He proved himself a dependable, responsible, and capable unit leader and quickly proved himself a worthy Proconsul and finally successor to the position of Consul of Odan-Urr. Let’s take a closer look at each of them.

Revak K’Urr spearheaded the Sunrider initiative, whose goal was simply to concentrate activity and community within the Clan in order to regain old activity levels and eventually surpass them. He threw himself into his work and excelled at it. He was one of my main community event organizers, took initiative in creating the Odan-Urr assessment guide to instruct younger leaders in awarding shinies, mentored younger members, and was incredibly active. He was the poster child of ‘leading from the front’. And he successfully ran a multi-chapter storyline called Vatali Unsettled, which as the sole leader of our sole House at the time drove Clan fiction considerably. He was critical to the success of the experiment known as House Sunrider and it would not have been successful without him. His actions are detailed more in this AK recc and this promotion recc. Thank you for everything you did for Sunrider.

Next, Revak K’Urr willingly agreed to help run Odan-Urr as my deputy. He was ever-present and willing to help wherever he was needed. His highlights include capping off a year of house lore development, maintaining excellent activity levels, helping me run a Clan so smoothly it was as if he could read my mind, made sure I got my clan reports out in time :P, resolved those thorny member disputes that aren’t very fun to deal with, and of course helping me grade all those Scimitar of Hoth competitions (which are very time-consuming), and mentoring younger members. In addition to his regular duties, he engaged and completed Survival Guides, Odan-Urr Novice Guide’s to our Fiction, the overhaul of our incident reporting system, was a main community event organizer, and was my right-hand man executing Odan-Urr’s clan vs clan feud (last one was 5 years prior to this one). In short, he did everything you wanted from a Proconsul and far far more. He was a pillar of our community and he helped Odan-Urr rise to its new fictional identify. It took a lot of hard work and sometimes what felt like a never-ending grind but he never gave up or surrendered. I’m very proud of his Proconsul work. His actions are detailed more in this AK recc and this promo recc.

Lastly, I will remark on his efforts as Consul. He staked a vision for the Clan and to this day follows through with it. He has been a steady and consistent hand as Consul and his rock-solid work ethic is no less than exemplary. He got the pleasure of leading Odan-Urr into the newly supported roleplay system. Additionally, it pleased me to see that he continued community building to create a space in the club for our members to have the most fun. As his Proconsul, it's been my pleasure to support and execute his vision for the Clan. He sacrifices his time for the club every day and Odan-Urr would not be the same without it. Thank you for being a great member and friend to Odan-Urr and me. His actions are detailed more in his SB recc, RS recc, and another SB recc.

In closing, Odan-Urr would not be where it is today without Revak K’Urr. When I needed someone to put in the work and execute my vision for House Sunrider, he stepped forward. When I needed someone to help run the Clan as deputy, he stepped forward. When I needed to pass the torch onto another Consul to lead us forward, he stepped forward. Back then and still today we face a shortage of reliable, dependable, and responsible leaders; and more importantly those who are willing to carve time out of their day to make it happen. Revak K’Urr always stepped forward when Odan-Urr needed him to and for that, I will be eternally grateful. He has long proven to have the stuffing of an Elder and I am so very proud of him and everything he has accomplished. I promised myself not to cry but I still remember that upstart Quaestor back in 2019 and the Proconsul who drew each of our member's stick figures for the holiday card. Congratulations old man and welcome to the ranks of Elder.

(P.S. I saved you a good seat next to the cold beverages where we can look back on the memories. There is even a bowl of small hard candies shaped like shuttles to chuck at youngsters.)

DarkHawk is an incredibly hardworking leader in this club. Since his promotion to EQ4, he has served nearly two years on the CNS clan summit, organized 77 competitions, participated in 222, and earned a significant number of clusters and crescents. Most recently, he received a Ruby Scepter for his impressive activity and leadership contributions.

DH is always looking for opportunities to contribute to the club, inside CNS and as a whole. His energy and enthusiasm seem limitless. This promotion has been well earned and, I hope, is just the first step on a new journey for DH. Congratulations!

Lord Dacien Victae, 2023-04-20 17:11:29 UTC

What is there to say about Darkhawk?

He's a pain, in a good way, because he highlights what it means to be a good solid leader and constantly showcases just what a leader should be. He's friendly, loyal as a friend and so dedicated it pretty much puts everyone else to shame. The world is a better place with DH and without a doubt he is someone to look upto both as a club summit member and as a genuine person.

I am proud to be on his summit and proud to write this wee tidbit because frankly this beautiful soul deserves this and so much more.

Duke Kojiro Keibatsu Sadow, 2023-04-08 10:35:52 UTC

I'm honored to be writing this recommendation for DarkHawk.

I've been happy to have DarkHawk as Consul and before that Proconsul. DarkHawk is friendly, proactive, and very active. He improves the club experience just by being around. I've found myself looking to his example many times. More than once, I have genuinely asked myself "what would DarkHawk do here?" or "how would DarHhawk respond?"

DarkHawk is always nice and great at defusing situations and getting along with everyone. He sets an example that everyone can get along even if they disagree or come from different backgrounds. This is a very important trait for a clan leader to have that doesn't show up on a dossier. I'm really glad that DarkHawk has it. He's a very positive and outgoing dude.

DarkHawk is also very proactive. He is quick to communicate when new reports and systems come out. He also frequently promotes events and awards. He's so great at getting to these things on time, that sometimes I try to beat him to the punch and usually I don't get there before him. It's great to have a Consul who is so proactive with this and communicates quickly and efficiently. Communication is really important. This is another example where I'm like "should I send this email? Well, DarkHawk probably would, and he wouldn't hesitate, so hell yes I'm doing it!"

Finally, DarkHawk is super active. If I run a competition and only get one entry, it's DarkHawk. He always sets the example by doing everything that he ever promotes to other people. This is part of why I did every competition in our recent CNS event. For one thing, I wanted to win. But also, I knew DarkHawk would do the same for my competitions, so I wanted to do it for his.

I guess this is another example of great leadership because it got me to be more active!

These are a few key reasons why I'm happy to have DarkHawk around and proud to be able to add my recommendation for his promotion to Elder.

Congratulations, DarkHawk! You earned this!

Darkhawk is the type of person that tries his best to get things accomplished. He tries to work with others to help bring out their ideas and find ways to incorporate some of them into Naga Sadow’s current narrative. As his right hand, I have found that I can approach him quite easily and collaborate on how we both can better serve our community and clan. He is really fun to play mario kart and squadrons alongside as well.

He strives to do the best he can as a leader and when he does not know something, he is always asking for help when he needs clarification. He is not afraid to admit when he messes up and owns up to it. Since he became Consul, I have seen him work harder than he ever has because to him Naga Sadow is his home and his members are like family. For his unrelenting determination, hard work and efforts to keep Naga Sadow standing, I am honored to give my voice in promoting him to Elder. Congratulations Darkhawk, you earned it! Drinks on you for today.

~Tasha’Vel Versea, Proconsul of Naga Sadow

Tasha'Vel Versea, 2023-04-12 18:31:09 UTC

With Darkhawk, it isn't a question so much of what has he done, as much as where to start. As my second in command, Darkhawk was excited to dip his toes into whatever he could do, to take the helm on anything and was always willing to challenge himself in new ways. Over the last 20+ years, Darkhawk has served at the Battleteam level, the House level, has served twice now in the Chamber of Justice as Appeals Panelist and Left Hand of Justice, and of course he has served at the Clan level. As Proconsul he had made efforts to ensure Clan fiction and history were not lost when the retirement and helped me to ensure our members were appropriately recognized. As both Proconsul and Consul, he highlights our members. He promotes our events. He excitedly encourages our members to do more, to go bigger, and to show off and express themselves more and more. Darkhawk is very much a spirit and a force in his own right in Clan Naga Sadow and in our club. Darkhawk rightfully has a part in the credit for the success of our Clan in recent days, and I feel confident that he will continue to do more of the same as the Clan continues under his wise leadership.

I think that when you take in the whole of all that Darkhawk is, has done, and how he continues to march forward that he has more than proven himself worthy of this. I am glad to see Darkhawk join his peers, as an equal. I am honored to be joining my voice with the others in recommending Darkhawk for this promotion. Congratulations on achieving the Elder ranks, Darkhawk!

This is another step amongst many, so I look forward to seeing you achieve the next one! Cheers!

Neophyte Atashi Rain has reached the required 850 XP to reach the rank of Journeyman 2.

Atashi, what a journey...man (how have I never made this joke before?). I have thoroughly enjoyed watching your adventuring with the clan. From forging new relationships with the clan members, growing with your new Master (Elaine), to having some fun in the sun at the waterpark RP.

I hope you're excited to see what you can do with these new powers in the next great adventure!

Master Kamjin "Maverick" Lap'lamiz, 2023-04-20 14:19:08 UTC

It seems that not a day goes past where I do not hear about you, Wesker. Your superiors have sent glowing records regarding your accomplishments, which together add up to no less than 242 XP!

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