It is my honor to be recommending Chizz for promotion to the rank of Guardian. Chizz has spent 14 days as a protector and has an approved character sheet. He has logged into IRC and has been a part of conversations in #Arcona, as well as having been awarded 152 clusters of Fire. Chizz has participated in 5 competitions placing 2nd in [Insert member's name here] The Inventor!, 2nd in What's in a Name?, 3rd in Competition: Star Wars Commander: Galactic War - Tournament 3, and 4th in Arconan Gorefest.

Chizz keep up the hard work and you will see your lightsaber soon.

Arcturus Moore, 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:

• Have an approved character sheet on record
• Logon to IRC and visit Clan channel
• Pass 8 Shadow Academy courses from the (Journeyman Hall) department(s)
• Pass Dark Brotherhood Basics Shadow Academy course

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

You will go far within this Brotherhood.

May the Force guide you, Protector,

I would like to recommend Protector Junazee elevated to the rank of Defender. Junazee has completed her mandated requirements of being awarded 40 CF's, reaching the SA Society 2nd rank as well as the 2nd rank of the GMRG Society. She has planned and written 750 words of character fiction, gained approval for her Character Sheet, and has been an annoyance in both IRC and the DJB TS server. In addition to this she has earned a Pendant of Blood.

Lastly she is a constant annoyance on learning more about the DJB. In my 14 years I have seen very few people who eat content up as much as she does. I can only imagine her rank and position in another year.

Congrats my apprentice, I am proud of you!

All too often, we see members get to PRT, GRD, or JH and burnout, losing interest in the club right as things are really going to take off. As a Rollmaster, this is a problem I'm acutely aware of and one that I work hard to overcome. As Raiju, his Master, says much better in his own recommendation below, however, this is not a problem we have with Garloaf, as he's aware that it's truly the slow and steady that win the race. We all complain from time to time about our RLs, but Garloaf is one that works within the confines he has to and yet still produces results - since his last promotion over a year ago, four Crescents, a Legion of the Scholar, and a Dark Cross speak wonderfully to that. I am proud to see Garloaf continue to keep his nose to the grindstone, and I am honored to recommend him for promotion to the rank of Jedi Hunter. Congrats!

Adept Farrin Xies Tarentae, 2015-01-09 05:08:08 UTC

It has been just over a year since Garloaf’s last promotion, which surpasses the time requirement, and I am even more excited now to write this recommendation as I was a year ago. Garloaf is an interesting character in club in comparison to how I have experienced Journeymen. Often, I run into JM that burst in with energy and scope up all the activities they can; however, more often than not these same JM enter into the Equite class and burn out because they aren’t properly prepared for the long game that is the DJB.

Garloaf, I believe, won’t have this problem.

Garloaf is a slow burn, but dependable source of energy. He’s dedicated to the House he serves, as has been proven in the activities he’s stepped up to provide for his brethren - whether it be for his direct benefit or (more importantly) not. He hosted competitions before for his promotion requirement but also just for the good of the house and that was what earned him his first merit award - satisfying another promotion requirement. Besides just being a content provider, Garloaf has also been a consumer (satisfying the competitions requirements with 15 submissions) and through his talent has earned a combined total of six 1st and 2nd place finishes (satisfying two additional requirements). Furthermore, his participation in the Shadow Academy has earned him a third tier rank within the society and he makes sure to pop on IRC when he’s RL allows him. In the past year he has come to satisfy the promotion requirements to Jedi Hunter, and again I think it’s important to note that he’s a long game player. Garloaf takes his advancement in the DJB one step at a time, figuring out the different aspects of this club in their entirety before moving onto another platform. And therefore I think Garloaf is already ready for the challenge that is the Equite ranks and I can’t wait to get him through the last huddle that is Jedi Hunter before he can be unleashed on that class group. Making the DJB work with his RL commitments, having a high level of patience and determination, as well as being both an active content provider and consumer are all the markings of an Equite member. So it’s my pleasure to recommend Garloaf to Jedi Hunter, just so we can get him onto DJK and then to his rightful place in the Equites.

Raiju, 2015-01-09 05:02:19 UTC

Garloaf is one of those members that stands out amidst the darkness. Tarentum has received a wonderful person with Garloaf, who displays consistent activity and positive attitude in everything he does. Whenever Tarentum needed him, he was there. Whether it was participating in Fading Light or doing competitions within the House, Garloaf stepped up and left his mark. When we needed someone to run a trivia competition, it was Garloaf who volunteered and ran the competition.

From my experience with Garloaf, he treats everyone with the same respect he’d like from others. He’s a great guy, and we here in Tarentum are very lucky to have him. It is my pleasure and privilege to ask that we promote Garloaf to Jedi Hunter. Congrats man!

Zel Koo, 2015-01-09 05:03:16 UTC

Garloaf has been a relatively quiet and under-the-radar member of Tarentum. I have not personally had a great deal of contact with him except to see the automated emails regarding SA courses completed, crescents awarded, and more recently his desire to move on to doing more within the House. He has helped to run several competitions and was able to do so with a very minimal amount of assistance. He is a prime example of the fact that you don’t have to make a lot of waves to be successful in the Dark Brotherhood. I look forward to seeing the next few phases of his advancement, which are when members need to begin expanding their spheres of influence and growing beyond the confines of their unit.

We are proud to have Garloaf in Tarentum, and I am honored to be able to recommend him for promotion to the rank of Jedi Hunter. Great work, and congratulations!

It is my honor to be recommending Nicolai or as we know him in Arcona, Rod, for promotion to the rank of Jedi Hunter. Rod has spent 21 days as a Guardian and not only has he been in #Arcona on IRC but also he has been active on the DJB Voice server and has posted constructive comments to the Brotherhood website. Rod has participated in 8 competitions and has written over 2000 words of character fiction. He has been awarded 3 Pendants of Blood and has reach Rank 4 in the GMRG. Rod has also reached rank 5 in the Shadow Academy and has placed second in the ‘An Arcona Carol’ competition. Finally he has earned himself 273 Clusters of Fire and a Dark Cross.

Rod you have seemingly never stopped moving since you joined the Brotherhood. It is a pleasure to watch you progress through the ranks and participate in the many facets that the Brotherhood has to offer. I have faith that soon we will see you achieve that coveted lightsaber. Keep up the good work Rod, you have earned this promotion and then some.

Rod has continued to destroy the requirements for Knighthood at a breakneck pace. Since his last promotion 21 days ago he has acquired a Crescent with Emerald Star, a Pendant of Blood, 28 Clusters of Fire and 4 Clusters of Ice. He also completed his ACC qualification as a first time go and managed to beat his Equite master in an ACC match (I won’t go easy on him next time :p ). Additionally, he also was a lead participant in the Clan Run-On posting 1785 words of fiction in support of his team.

If I could, I’d give him his Knight saber now, but one step remains. It is has been an honor and pleasure to have Rod as a student and member of my House. I have no doubt he will forge his own legend in the upcoming GJW.

See you on the front lines my apprentice, glory (and your Knighthood) awaits!

Arcona Invicta!
