<I>Acolyte Socorra stood quietly on the stage in the meeting hall of House Galeres, in front of the entirety of its membership, along with the friends and allies she had made throughout the Clan. Ger Quaestor, Celahir rose from his seat on the stage and the soft conversations diminished to silence.<br><br> "Acolyte, you have proven yourself yet again and have come to this place to be recognized in front of your brethren. Is this correct?"<BR><BR> "Yes, Master," the Acolyte said and bowed. <BR><BR> "Then kneel," the Quaestor ordered as the Acolyte acknowledged the command and took a knee before him. <BR><BR> “Today, the Summit recognizes Acolyte Socorra and has, by consensus, willed that she be recognized as a Protector.“ The Quaestor lifted his hand and drew energy from the room around him and formed a shadow that seemed to ooze its way over the Acolyte, covering her in darkness. <BR><BR> "Light is limited," spoke the Quaestor. <br><br> "Darkness is infinite," said the Acolyte. <BR><BR> "Then as such, Protector Socorra, rise and accept your new station within your Clan."<BR><BR> The applause was thunderous as the newly elevated Protector rose and faced her brethren. She raised her arm and shouted, <BR><BR> "ARCONA INVICTA!" <BR><BR></I> I would hereby like to request a promotion for Acolyte Socorra, who has currently fulfilled all requirements for promotion under the Dark Jedi Brotherhood's promotions guidelines, as follows:<BR><BR She has completed and had approved a valid character history. She has passed the Training Saber, ACC Basics, DB Basics, Alchemy and Krath Core Courses<BR>

She has completed ACC Basics <BR> She has logged onto IRC and visited her Clan channel.<BR> <BR>As Socorra has met all the necessary qualifications, I would like to respectfully request its promotion to Protector. <BR><BR> In darkness, <BR><BR> OP Celahir Erinos

<I>Novice Socorra stood in the meeting room of her House, where a large number of her Housemates were gathered, seated before her. As the Novice's Quaestor stood, the Novice took a knee before him.<BR><BR> The Novice's Quaestor, Celahir, raised a hand and conjured a dark mass of vapor, a coherent patch of darkness.<BR><BR> "As your superior in the Dark Brotherhood, I personally attest to your achievements and am proud to confer on you the rank of Acolyte. With this elevation you have earned the right to step to the next pillar of strength and knowledge within Clan Arcona and the Brotherhood of Dark Jedi." <BR><BR> The shadow fell from his hand over the Novice shrouding her as the Quaestor spoke again.<BR><BR> "Light is limited."<BR><BR> "Darkness is infinite."<BR><BR> "Rise, Socorra, an Acolyte of Clan Arcona."<BR><BR> The applause filled the chamber as the newly promoted Acolyte stood and chanted:<BR><BR> "ARCONA INVICTA!"<BR><BR></I> I hereby request a promotion for Novice Socorra, who has fulfilled all requirements for promotion under the Dark Jedi Brotherhood's promotion guidelines, as follows:<BR><BR> Socorra has graduated the DB Basics exam.<BR><BR> She has also performed the following three activities:<BR> She has logged onto IRC and visited her Clan channel.<BR> She has registered on the DJB Forums.<BR>

"You're no longer to call me <i>Master</i>." Eiko exhaled. "Take the components of the lightsaber and make it yours. When you're done, meet me in the hall outside the common room."

It's such a pleasure to write a recommendation for James. I've had the chance to work closely with him over the past few months as he's worked through the requirements leading into this milestone, as he has been both my apprentice and my Aedile. James has stepped up to the plate as Aedile especially, asking for larger roles and more opportunity to work in the House. His activity and presence in the House has made a tremendous difference for the House. Beyond all the requirements, I've come to see in James the character of a Dark Jedi Knight in this club. He's organized, quick to learn, and I've seen him mature through the leadership and interaction with other members in this club.

I submit this recommendation to his immediate elevation to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight and release him from his apprenticeship. He has earned his place at the pinnacle of the Journeymen ranks and is well-equiped for the road into the Equite ranks ahead.

OT Eiko QUA, Revan

So, the young Revan Aedile doesn't have his lightsaber yet? Let's get this fixed...

James took on the task of working on the House Revan Wiki background starting in July. Since then, he's updated the House and Prospectus pages and created a few NPCs to flesh out some of the fictional details. Additionally, he's written his own character page and sought to improve it after getting constructive feedback. In my opinion, while I'm not "House Leadership" or anyone's "Master", at least one of those has to count for "Complet[ing] a quality wiki article".

Beyond the regular wiki activity, he's come to me multiple times on IRC to discuss possible improvements to the slightly more technical wiki things like templates. This is a large part of why I chose him for DJBWikipedian of the Month for August - I truly appreciate people who send me good ideas.

We could've made the yellow template style work too. Congrats James.

James Roberts-Brannigan has been an exceptional member to House Revan and the DB as a whole. He has continuously been active, setting a great example to the members he leads as Aedile. I've watched James grow in his leadership role. His hunger for knowledge drives him to seek out the answers he doesn't have and therefore broadened his knowledge of the club. He has worked hard to develop his own leadership style all while accomplishing the tasks for his promotion.

It is with great pleasure that I reccomend James for this promotion to Dark Jedi Knight.
