I am pleased to announce that Guardian Darkblade has achieved the requirements for the rank of Jedi Hunter.

Firstly, he is now a regular on the #arcona IRC channel, where he is among the first to join in with the various conversation and banter within, demonstrating that he is a valuable part of the Arconan community.

His general activity level has been impressive. Not only has he taken part in five competitions, placing in one of these, but he has also written over 2,000 words of character fiction, as well as managing to obtain the 4th rank within the Shadow Academy, helped by the fact he passed important courses such as Leadership Studies and Leadership Fundamentals. He has also organised a DB-wide competition, "Star Wars: Assault Team Arena Competition", further demonstrating potential as a future leader.

He has also been awarded a merit medal, this being a Dark Cross, and been at the rank of Guardian for the required time.

Congratulations, DB. Just one more promo and you have that saber. ;)
