Crysall
Old Rank
Protector (Journeyman 1)
New Rank
Guardian (Journeyman 2)
Requested by
Teu Buhkari Sadow
Primary reason

Crysall, though being a quiet and slow person working through her requirements to attain a new rank, has achieved more than she had hoped to when she joined the DB, earning a Dark Cross due to her activity in Naga Sadow's gaming events.

Though she only required 15 Clusters of Fire to be promoted, she had earned 89 so far and is on her way to be rank 3 in the Grand Master Royal Guard. She has also passed (with a lot of effort) the required course to be eligible for her promotion and has been one of the most active members of her Clan in The Old Republic.

For all these achievements and feats, I proudly recommend my student to the rank of Guardian.

Dark Jedi Knight (Journeyman 4)
Requested by
Cethgus Tiberius Entar
Primary reason

Cethugs grabbed at the scruff of his opponent’s neck, hauling the Jedi Hunter across the room and into a heap upon the floor. His eyes fell upon him with a glare of disappointment for a brief moment in time, displeased with the ease of his actions.

“This is what you call ready?” His voice was annoyed as he spoke towards his Student.

Kyrun, scrambling to his feet, lost himself for a moment and charged frustratedly, running towards his Master. Before he had time to realise it was nothing more than a trap, he found himself tumbling to the ground, a grunt of pain coming from his lips. Suddenly, agony erupted through the man’s back, the smell of burnt flesh wafting around the room as the Primarch took care in carving a ‘C’ into the man's right shoulder blade.

“Something to remind you, Kyrun, of what you’ve learned here, for even when I go, that will remain.” He said coldly as he stepped away from his Student.

The sound of boots heading their way had Cethgus snapping his head around in attention. A pointed cough and a smile annoyed the Quaestor instantly as he turned to Atyiru, his sabers still lively humming as he faced her.

“What?” His he demanded coolly, his voice echoing through the training arena.

“They are ready for us, brother.” She told him brightly, her voice seeming way too cheerful for him as a flare of annoyance flashed across his face. He swiveled back to his Apprentice.

“Kyrun, get your pathetic self up and follow me.” He ordered as he watched his student haul himself to his feet. Seeing the brand that all of the Primarch’s students wore brought a sinister smirk to his lips, though he sensed his Aedile’s frown as they departed.

The three walked through the corridors towards the appointed hall, where the gold door stood closed. The drumming sound of the Arconae’s fist as he knocked on the door thudded dully in their ears. It opened, admitting them before their Consul, who sat on his throne, staring at the three that entered into his domain. The door swung shut behind the three of them as they proceeded inside.

Kyrun allowed his eyes to glance around as he looked at the figures standing there, instantly recognizing the Consul Marick Arconae sitting down, and to his right Legorii, standing still, eyeing the Jedi Hunter. Cethgus and Atyiru broke away, leaving the man standing on his own in the center of the room. Cethgus allowed himself to take the left hand side of the Consul, with Atyiru flanking him, a small hand to the Consul’s shoulder showing the significance of this matter.

“Kyrun, you have been considered for the elevation to the rank of Knighthood by your master.” The Hapan declared, his calm voice trailing around the room for a few seconds before he stood up and walked towards Kyrun.

“It is with pleasure that the Arconan Summit and your House Summit deem you worthy of this rank. From today forward, you serve Arcona as one of its Knights. Congratulations. Welcome to Knighthood. Welcome to the beginning.” He intoned with the respect deemed of someone in his office as he addressed the new Knight.

............................................

I am honoured to be recommending Kyrun for his elevation to the Rank of Knighthood. He has been a hard and motivated member of this Clan and House since joining us. Though it took him awhile to find his groove he has finally made it to where we are right now.

Kyrun is always a friendly member of the House coming on IRC and chatting with the members of the Clan getting others involved and keeping conversations taking place inside #arcona. As well as being a beacon of activity within gaming, this has been by playing with members in the Old Republic as well as JA, showing that he is around to help those that do wish to get games in.

What most will not speak about is the bond that has come from Kyrun, since he joined and became my student this guy has kept me on my toes. As he has progressed and learned inside of the Brotherhood, he has also allowed me to meet another great member, who I can call a friend and know that I can rely on when I need work done without hesitation. A trait that I find more and more common inside of the Brotherhood and one that will continue to grow. He also purses everything he can always asking for work with no want or need for reward. This guy really does go out of his way to make sure that he achieves everything with the maximum effort he puts in, continuing to strive and work towards his overall goals.

Congratulations on this elevation Dark Jedi Knight Kyrun, you finally made it there dude, and I have to say I am proud of you. But this doesn't mean you get a break, still got a lot of work to be doing. Keep up the hard work and I look forward to see what you are doing in the future.

Additional reasons

I am delighted to declare that Kyrun is ready for elevation to the coveted rank of Dark Jedi Knight. With his latest surge of activity he has completed the tasks required to obtain this promotion.

Firstly, he has acquired the requisite merit medal, this being an Anteian Cross for Dark Crusade activity. He has also been awarded a pair of Novae for placing in Dark Crusade events, thereby fulfilling the requirement of a competition award.

Kyrun has been incredibly active within The Old Republic guild, completing an impressive fifteen flashpoints, operations and PvP events with his fellow DB members, thereby helping increase the club’s presence on ToR. This has given him an impressive forty-one Clusters of Fire. He has also shown an interest in creating and running competitions, having run an IRC trivia competition.

Kyrun also has shown he has at least a basic grasp of the key concepts of leadership, having passed both Leadership Studies and Leadership Fundamentals. He continued this excellent studying within the Shadow Academy by obtaining the Combat Maven degree.

Finally, he has completed his House Summit task, which was to examine Wiki pages relating to House Galeres and compile a list of what work needed doing, thereby creating a list of further Journeymen tasks for other promotion candidates. Also, to bypass the time requirement, Kyrun has completed an MAA task, which was to complete his own Wiki article.

I’m delighted to finally see Kyrun achieve the rank of Dark Jedi Knight! He’s been a hard worker and avid participator for as long as he’s been with the Clan. He’s an active presence on IRC and G+’s, always joking, chatting, and interacting with his brethren. I’ve gotten to see him toil away for this promotion, and I can more than say he’s earned it.

Congratulations on Dark Jedi Knight Ky, you awesome little redhead, you. We can’t wait to see what comes next.

Nyssa "Bubbles" Taldrya
Old Rank
Krath Epis (Equite 3)
New Rank
Krath Pontifex (Equite 4)
Requested by
Keirdagh Taldrya Cantor
Primary reason

Bubbles Taldrya. In the decade (yes, decade) since her last promotion, Bubbsy has never ceased to be one of the most loyal, dedicated, and hard working members of Taldryan. When you consider that Bubbsy has had a seriously eventful life in the meantime, what with her being all Doctory and such, you come to realize just how great of a contribution to Taldryan that she has made.

Bubbs has never been one who stands on rooftops and shouts orders. She’s more like an older sister to many of Taldryan, guiding new and old members of Taldryan alike, with her calming demeanour, pathological love of ice cream and cookies, and steady, solid performance into bettering not only the unit as a whole, but themselves in the process.

I can list out the amount of smaller awards Bubbles has taken home since her last promotion, which are legion, but none of them really matter to me more than the competitions medals. She’s taken home 44 seals of 9 different varieties, she’s earned 36 various crescents, as well as 6 Nova. Bubbs embodies participation, she supports everything Taldryan does, from making sure she submits to Journeymen competitions to making them feel welcome and appreciated, to participating in massive Brotherhood wide events, because Taldryan asks her to. She doesn’t do it for glory, she does it for Taldryan, and for the love she has of it, and the Brotherhood. For this alone, I would recommend her for this promotion, but it’s not nearly all she’s done.

Since being appointed as Taldryan’s Rollmaster, Bubbles has done amazingly fine work. In the months since her elevation, Taldryan has seen as many promotions to Dark Jedi Knight as it had in almost a year previous. Bubbles or I suppose Nyssa, as we must now call her, is entirely integral to this fact. Her ability to connect with new recruits, and inspire them to take up the Taldryan cause is unparalleled, helping usher Taldryan forward into a new era.

With my most heartfelt recommendation, I request that Nyssa “Bubbles” Taldrya, be raised to the rank of Krath Pontifex with immediate effect.

Aedile of Taldryan,

Keirdagh Taldrya Cantor, 2013-09-19 17:45:18 UTC
Additional reasons

Bubbles has been with Taldryan for quite a long time, quite a long time in which she has always been an influental voice to everyone new and old in Taldryan either serving in a Summit Position or through pulling strings from behind the curtain. Her dedication to Taldryan can be compared with little to anyone else. Bubbs is an outstanding person, from my own experience she can push one to go over his capabilities and then in a matter of seconds change and listen to whatever problem you have and help you with her calming, reassuring manner.

Everything she does, she does with the fullest of her heart, no matter if this is for Taldryan and the Broterhood or her Real Life. And while this is on its own is an outstanding trait it makes others tend to take it as common that she does it and that for might not see something special in it, but there is nothing to be taken as common when one does something with the heart, it is exactly the opposite, it is always something secial if someone gives everything especially for something that has a special meaning to her, as this is with Bubbs and Taldryan.

In over a decade since her last promotion, Bubbles has served a decent time of it as Battleteamleader of either the Phoenix Phyle or the Wardens of Unity and most recently as Rollmaster of the Houce, making sure that everyone is aware of his/her promotion tasks along Yacks and myself and that they get their rightful promotions and won't miss out the fun that is going on within the House.

Her continuingly presence, coupled with the dedication to Taldryan and its members are more than deserving of seeing her elevated to the rank of Krath Pontifex. Congrats Bubbs! Now Ice-cream?

Quaestor of Taldryan

Rian Taldrya, 2013-09-19 17:42:11 UTC

The Taldryan motto is that we are a “Brotherhood within a Brotherhood.” To people outside of Taldryan, that probably just sounds like a cheap bit of language to prop up the unit as something beyond being a band of miscreants and old folks. But to those of us that have lived and breathed in Taldryan for years and years, there is a deep meaning to those words. They mean that we have a group of people connected beyond just our self interests. We are all striving for ultimate goals for each other, for Taldryan.

And so when I look at our history and our roster, and I focus on who makes Taldryan great, it’s easy to pick out a few distinct names. But there’s one that stands out to me almost beyond all others: Bubbles Taldrya. Bubbs is the type of member and person that makes Taldryan beyond special. She is part of the core of our unit, working continuously over years and years to make this a fun and supportive place for members. She is a rock; while the old folks come and go, Bubbles is there consistently, actively participating in competitions and all other unit activities.

The best part of Bubbles is her insanely positive personality. She has a way about her that just brings happiness to Taldryan. I have enjoyed every interaction with her, and am always glad to see her name cross my e-mail box. Bubbles does more than I can describe to bring about unity and cohesion to Taldryan. She is a member that, while not always in leadership positions, is a leader of us all.

So, it’s without hesitation that I support a promotion for Bubbles Taldrya. It is wholly deserved, as is our thanks to her.

Cheers!

It’s hard to imagine a Taldryan without Bubbles. She’s an institution, and to know her is to basically love her. She has just always been here, and everyone knows when she’s around. Her personality is unique, not only within Taldryan, but also within the Brotherhood itself. She is the ray of sunshine in the general grey cloud of the club. Yes, this all sounds sappy, but it’s 100% true. This entire place would be less without her around.

Now, this is just about her and her personality...it doesn’t necessarily say anything about why she should be promoted, does it? Well, let’s see. Ten years of service, in and of itself, is something special. Few of us have managed that feat, let alone waited for a promotion during that stretch of time. While Bubbs has had a staggeringly-busy RL over the years she has always managed to find some time for the club and to help Taldryan out. She is the quintessential Taldrya; there when we need her. I know her specific deeds will be listed within this recommendation so I don’t need to repeat it, but it clearly shows someone who has continued to stay connected to the club in an active and positive way. However, it’s what the numbers don’t say that really sets her apart and pushes her into the next level. She has been instrumental through the years of helping and nurturing our newer and younger members. That personality I mentioned before has translated into the ability to connect with those who are new to this place. She has led countless new members within Taldryan and made them a part of the club as a whole.

I am more than happy to see Bubbles elevated to the next rank. She has gone above and beyond what is required. Congratulations!

Lord Halcyon, 2013-09-19 17:43:18 UTC

I still remember when Bubbs joined the DB. She was remarkable even then - instantly active, energetic, and helpful. She was immediately a friendly face to just about everyone, and immediately began what has been an incredible career that has benefited Taldryan immensely. Beyond that, her activity level has been consistent. From then until now, she has always participated and helped Taldryan in any way she could.

I’ve been in and out of activity for the last several years. I’ve come back for a few months at a time, met many new people, and seen only a smattering of old faces. Every time I’ve returned, it seems like the people I know in this organization become fewer and fewer. Yet each time, one person has always been present, and always been consistent: Bubbles. No matter the competition, no matter the stakes, Bubbsy has been there. She has been serving Taldryan faithfully for years, and throughout, she has been a constant advisor not just to the summit, but to new members as well.

I know such lofty promotions typically are reserved for those in high leadership positions, but there is a reason for that, and that is because it is typically only those in such positions that make lasting impacts on the people around them. Bubbs has done this without such a position, and has consistently done so. She deserves EQ4 more than anyone I’ve written a recommendation for; I only wish that I had been active through the entire time she has been EQ3 so that I could make you a proper list of her accomplishments. Instead, I’ll leave that to the others that are recommending her, and leave it with this: If you asked me to name a few of the members over the last ten years that have made Taldryan what it is, she would be within the top five. Of those members, all of them but she are Elders. It’s time she receive the recognition she has so long deserved for such constant activity!

Congratulations, Bubbs!

Combat Master of the Dark Brotherhood

Telaris "Mav" Cantor, 2013-09-19 17:43:57 UTC

No words nor feeble attempts can sum up this gem of a member. Her dossier name displays Nyssa “Bubbles” Taldrya, but I have had the pleasure to know her as none other than ‘Bubbsy’.

Bubbles has been and forever will be a Matriarch of Taldyan and a forerunning of goodwill and prosperity. Her due diligence in matters pertaining to this club and her home unit Tal are surpassed by none. Striking the iron and rendering an image that is too precious to ever recreate, Bubbles makes her mark as one of Taldryan’s elite, and one of the Brotherhoods finest.

In her ten years of service, Bubbles has taken to the shadows when it comes to rewards and tokens of appreciation. Never asking nor searching for glory of her own, it is with great pride that I have the honor – no, the privilege - of writing a recommendation for this one of a kind woman. To have a hand in seeing this member placed at her rightful standing at the final tier of the Krath Order is quite a treat.

In times of need, Bubbles stepped up to the plate and taken up various mantles of Leadership within Taldryan. Serving as Battleteam Leader of Phoenix Phyle in House Ektrosis of Clan Taldryan she proved that all of the years of persistence paid off by leading her unit to new heights for almost a year’s time. Two years later Bubbles once again would rise and take upon the position of Battleteam Leader over House Taldryan’s Warden’s of Unity; a position that was unquestionably needed to be filled by someone with her talents. And once more, we find Nyssa brandishing the torch as a leader in House Taldryan as its Master of the Roster. A position which she currently occupies.

In war, this long serving member has seen her hand at being known as a force to reckon with on all fronts of the battlefield. Whether she sets her mind to writing a poem of great proportions or scribbles out her character’s story through blood and sweat, this member seeks glory for Taldryan. Always looking out, Bubbles maintains Taldryan’s resolve by offering whatever help she can before, during or after the smoke of war. A lending hand has been found by many through her wisdom; I myself can attest to that.

Let it be known in the records that Bubbles Taldrya, overall powerhouse in terms of lore and scripts has indeed completed her show of power over the masses by participating in a gaming event. An event that I myself was able to participate in with her, ushering her into the ranks of those who game. Bubbles played a full match of Pazaak against me… and won. And she did it while in the middle of writing her fiction event submission.That match set her participation score to almost near-perfect for in Chapter 2 of Phase 2 in the Dark Crusade.

With effort and trial this member has taken 2 Gold, 3 Silver and 1 Bronze Nova to be mantled upon the crest of Taldryan while at the rank of Epis. In addition to this she has earned 36 Crescents varying in different levels of prominence. Her war room is filled with 44 Seals won by pure skill in times of Vendettas , Great Jedi Wars and Rites of Supremacy. Yet her payment for such acts have been less than repaid having earned mere scraps for the amount of work she has committed for her Brotherhood, rendering only 3 Steel Crosses, 3 Antein Crosses and 4 Dark Crosses. This member has gone without due penance for far too long and today we must repay her the title she deserves. A title like… Pontifex.

Nyssa “Bubbles” Taldrya, take up your rightful place amongst the Elite of your order and prove that you are worthy of such an elevation by accepting the tomes that your brothers have sung for you here today. Stand tall, knowing that without question you have earned this promotion tenfold. And were it not for you, Taldryan truly would not be where it is today, nor would it be as cheerful and fun-filled as we have all come to know it.

Shed your skin, Epis; and rise as a Krath Pontifex!

Sight Nortorshin has exemplified what it means to be a member of House Odan-Urr. Having watched him as he climbed through the Journeyman ranks, I can say that Sight is a determined individual, often completing his tasks within a few days. His Major House Summit Task included work on various Wiki articles as well as work on the Jedi Vocational Corps program that has been in development for a year. In this, he has been instrumental for creating mission prompts in this system, which has already undergone a successful beta test. He has also completed his fiction task in no less than ten pages of exceptional fiction, as well as the running of a competition (An Odan to Urr,) which has been run with great success. His constant efforts to become one of Odan-Urr's most active has made him a boon for the house. In addition, he has competed a plethora of Odan-Urr's quality wiki articles. I would like to congratulate him on this next promotion, and hope he has many more to come.

In the well over two and a half years Eetherbiail has been a DJK, he has continued to remain an active and engaged member of Scholae Palatinae, as well as the DJB as a whole. The jump into Equite ranks can be difficult, and one many members fail to make. I firmly believe that Eether has more than proved himself to be a capable and involved member of the DJB, with eyes set toward things beyond just his personal gain.

Simply as a member, Eether can be relied on whenever the House needs strong participation in vendettas. Balancing DJB work with a heavy school load can be difficult, but it is something Eether has done splendidly the last few years. If there is something big happening, I know Eether will be there bringing his A game. This can be seen very clearly in his massive participation in both Horizons and GJW X. Even more recently with the crusade, he has participated in nearly every single round, and is a proud member of Scholae Palatinae’s Special Forces Team. His work there helped us secure a first place overall victory against Clan Naga Sadow this last round as well.

But Eether isn’t one of those members who is only present during big vendettas. If someone is running a house level competition, Eether is there with a submission. If we need more house level competitions, Eether is there. Even in the large House level events such as the recently passed Summer Games, Eether not only participated but helped provide a competition for it.

Beyond that, he quickly volunteered to help take over managing the Titles of Nobility System here in HSP, something that has always required a careful eye. Outside of HSP, I know Eether quickly jumped to volunteer on the new Lightsaber guides that are still forth coming to the DB public. I can’t speak for what he has worked on there, but I know he has been very excited to see it finally released.

Since gaining DJK, he has earned a respectable pile of medals to show off. They are: 1 Gold Nova, 3 Silver Nova, 4 Bronze Nova, 76 Cluster of Fire, 8 Cluster of Ice, 1 Seal of Reminiscence, 13 Seals of Affliction, 21 Seals of Decimation, 1 Seal of Return, 1 Steel Cross, 1 Anteian Cross, 1 Dark Cross, 3 Ruby Stars, 2 Amethyst Stars, 3 Emerald Stars and, 3 Topaz Stars.

I’ve known Eether the entire time he has been a member of this club. I remember welcoming him to Scholae Palatinae on IRC, giving him help through those first few days and ranks of the club. I worked as his master and saw him rise to the rank of DJK. It has been an honor to see him continue to grow and work hard here in the DJB. Too often members stop, burn out, or get angry and leave. Members like Eether are the backbone of the DJB, and what make it great. I am very glad to have Eether in Scholae Palatinae, and to call him a friend.

Congratulations Eether very well earned! Drinks are on you!

Additional reasons

In accordance to the promotion requirements, if one wants to become an Equite, he or she must start thinking of their community, whether it be a Battleteam, a House, a Clan or whole Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Some may say that it means taking part in numerous projects that positively affect a given community by improving its functioning and creating friendly atmosphere for its members. However, I believe that it is enough to be active enough to make a difference. A difference, when it comes to competing with other units of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. A difference, which helps develop the community through participation in competitions and earning activity points for the community.

Eetherbiail is an outstanding member of the Imperial House. With the limited amount of free time at his disposal, he does his best to submit entries to various events throughout the Dark Crusade. Despite lack of placing, his presence during the Dark Crusade so far helped us earn additional fleet points for future use. Now, as one of the SF members, he does his best to make sure that his entries are of the highest possible quality.

1 Steel Cross, 1 Anteian Cross, 1 Dark Cross, 7 Novae ( 1 GN, 3 SN, 3 BN ), 14 Crescents, 76 Clusters of Fire, 4 Clusters of Ice, 36 Seals for various Vendettas and Independence Games. 12 SA courses and one Dark Maven, all earned since his promotion to the Dark Jedi Knight in late 2010 year. It is quite an impressive collection of awards, if we take under the consideration tight school schedule.

Eether is also a person, who serves to the House in other means. He has volunteered to help us with the Titles of Nobility and without his desire to assist us, the project would be much delayed in time. It is also necessary to include numerous competitions, which were hosted by Eether, just to mention last Summer Games.

I see Eetherbiail as a stalwart member of the Scholae Palatinae. I know that we may count on his help, if we request assistance. He is well-mannered and easily approachable person. It would be tough to find many people like him. That is why, he should be allowed to abandon the limits of being just a Dark Jedi Knight and to become one of the Equites of the Brotherhood. Congratulations!

A promotion to Dark Jedi Knight is like a graduation into the full offerings of the DJB, where you step into your own and carve your own path, and Eether has done just that going on 3 years now. Time and time again he has stepped up where he can and enjoyed participating in competitions available at all levels. I have had the enjoyment of writing with him in several run-ons and cooperative competitions over the past year and even when he has limited time I find myself tossing around ideas for individual events and discussing prompts to help drive even my own creative processes. This constant activity and contribution combined over such a considerable amount of time makes a promotion to the Equite 1 rank more than deserved, and I strongly recommend it.

Eether is a picture of consistency and activity. Never far from the action, he is frequently found in the top three in House competitions, and has put a lot of work into the Dark Crusade. He has been a consistent presence in the House, and has assisted new members and old through his time in the Dark Brotherhood. He is always ready to be called upon to help with projects, such as Project Goetia, which helped flesh out the Cocytus system. He fully deserves a promotion into the Equite ranks. Congratulations!
