I've had the pleasure of working with Angelo Dante for the last 4 or 5 months. During this time he has worked as House Dorimad Sol's Rollmaster, and he has done an impeccable job. When ever we have new recruits, Dante is there with an email to welcome them. Most importantly, he CCs me so that I know what he's doing. Furthermore, Dante is always there to remind me when a journeyman needs a promotion or a medal request. With my busy schedule, I can always rely on Dante to get the job done and to get it done properly. Without asking, Dante compiles the AWOL lists, MSP lists, and other various information. This makes working in and around HDS much more simple. Dante's experience in the EHDB has brought a new breath to our continually growing house and it continues to do so on a regular basis.

I cannot say enough good things about Dante's tenure as RollMaster. I am very happy that I selected him and am very glad that our friendship has grown. Being able to balance RM, LHoJ, and all the other things that Dante does is something that I will never be able to do. Not only does Dante do it, but he does it with the same excitement everyday.

Dante also shows a great pride for his House. In all our events, Dante is sure to compete and aid us in our fight. Medals that litter his medal case are pure evidence of this. While vendetta participation is important, it is the things that Dante does on a normal day which truly merit this reward for him. Dante is always on top of gaming. I would play him more often, but he kicks so much ass that I never win!

Dante competes in every gaming event, scoring massive amounts of points for our Clan. It seems like a small thing, but the presence in the gaming community is an important lure for the growth of our Clan. I applaud Dante on his continued domination of the DJB's gaming world.

All in all, there is no Rollmaster in the Brotherhood that deserves recognition more than Angelo Dante. I am proud to say that he is in my House, my Clan, and above all, this club. Dante, my enforcer, HDS loves you. Congratulations and thank you for everything you do for us!

Angelo Dante. High General of the Legions of Scholae. Trusted advisor. Friend. All these characteristics make Dante one of the first people that I go to whenever I have an issue. His extensive knowledge of the Brotherhood, both in its current form and the EHDB, serves as a wonderful repository of wisdom and insight.

Currently serving as the Rollmaster for Dorimad Sol, Dante is constantly in the Summit ’s conversations on leadership. His style of leadership is one to be mimicked. He has a largely hands off approach, unless a heavy hand is more suited. He is able to adapt to the many changes of CSP and keep on rolling. He shows his loyalty to his Clan in the face of direct offers from other Clans for higher leadership positions, something that is to be admired.

Overall, Dante is all that a Summit member could ask for in a Rollmaster/Envoy. He is quick with responses, emails, and answers to questions. He emails all new arrivals to Dorimad Sol within 12 hours, most almost immediately. Basically, he epitomizes what an Envoy/Rollmaster should be and should strive towards.

The pinnacle of Merit Awards is the Grand Cross of the Dark Side. It should not ever be given lightly, and I truly believe that Dante is the clearest example of the type of member that should receive this prestigious award. It is my honor to recommend Angelo Dante to receive the Grand Cross of the Dark Side.

Dante is a fiend, plain and simple. He goes out and gives his all for the Clan every chance he gets. Whether it be the gaming thats he dominates or helping the summit behind the scenes with the military and giving his insight on subjects at hand. He has become an amazing asset to the summits of CSP. His job as Rollmaster is done flawlessly and without fail. He is giving his all to make sure that the new members progress farther in the DB, as well as helping us clear the HDS roster of those who have lacked behind and fallen out of contact. He has proven his merit on numerous occasion and is sticking to making CSP the most dominate clan of the DB. I am proud to have Dante a member of my clan and I am honored to recommend him for his first Grand Cross. This undoubtedly will be the first of many great awards I will bestow on him, and look forward to his hard work an dedication in the coming months.

For Major contributions to Clan Scholae Palatinae's Rite of Supremacy 2010. Dante placed in many events and lead our gaming charge. In addition to Clan events, Dante participated in many of the individual events! In total, Dante participated in 12 events, earning 6 placing points! Inspiring as always, Dante assured that we did not drown under the gaming losses of other members. Dante's participation got the true essence of the RoS. And his fervor in the off weeks shows how dedicated he truly is. Great job Dante!

During the Rite of Supremacy (RoS): Disorder, Angelo Palpatine Dante became a veritable fountain of activity, amazing his summit by the level of dedication and work which he pulled towards himself. Dante participated in nearly every single event the RoS had to offer (14/16) and placed in several of them: - In the JO-SP event, he attained Second (2nd) place, earning himself a Silver Nova. - In the Week One (1) Gaming Event, he attained Third (3rd) place in the RC-MP. - In the Week Two (2) Gaming Event, he attained Second (2nd) places in BF1-MP and BF2-MP, and a Third (3rd) place in EaW-MP. - In the Week Three (3) Gaming Event, he attained Second (2nd) place in Team-MP-Gaming. However, as impressive as this appears, Dante’s truly exceptional work during RoS: Disorder happened somewhat behind the scenes. He urged and convinced many Obelisk to participate in many events and was a constant fixture in #DBGaming, always willing to explain things and otherwise help members. He also actively worked to help the DB outside of the RoS, since his promotion to Primarch in late August, Dante attained: - One (1) Crescent with Ruby Star for placing Second (2nd) in the [FIST] Beat the Staff Competition. - Two (2) Crescents with Amethyst Star for placing First (1st) in the [FIST] Battle Front 2 Competition and for placing Third (3rd) in the [VOICE] Defining an Order Competition. - One (1) Crescent with Emerald Star for placing First (1st) in the Nightstalkers Patch Competition. - One (1) Crescent with Topaz Star for placing Second (2nd) in the Nightstalkers Crest Competition. - One (1) Crescent with Quartz Star for placing Third (3rd) in the Training Day Competition. - Fourteen (14) Seals of Defiance, for actions during the RoS: Disorder. - One (1) Seal of Loyalty - One (1) Scroll of Foundation, for guiding Xantros to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight. - One (1) Pendant of Blood, for participating in the [FIST] Battle Front 2 Competition. - Two Hundred and Thirty (230) Clusters of Fire earned between September and the November 14th. Once one adds to this display of activity and dedication Dante’s exemplary work as Leader of Battle Team Nightstalkers, we come to a point were nothing less then a Grand Cross will suffice to thank this member for his work and tireless efforts. Congratulations on attaining this Grand Cross of the Dark Side, Dante. You’ve certainly earned it! QUA Ood Bnar Scythe’rae of HSP

Over the last year, Angelo Dante has amassed a vast amount of wins, losses, and a number of Clusters of Fire. So, without further ado, Dante has done a great job over the last year earning 620 wins, and taking first place in this competition. Along with this he has earned the right to be the Brotherhood's top gamer of 2010. Congrats dude, very well earned and deserved! ~ OP Fremoc Pepoi, Fist of the Brotherhood

Kell Palpatine Dante is one of the few members I know I can totally rely on to bring his A game constantly. It is because of members like Dante that the DB can flourish. Dante constantly is a source of advise and an excellent example for all the members in HSP. This became abundantly clear with his performance in the tenth Great Jedi War. Over the course of the war he competed in an amazing 25 events. His submissions maintained the high standards he set for himself, never satisfied with just getting a seal for competing but striving to be the very best. His hard work netted him four bronze novae and two silver novae. This excellent effort netted him enough points to come in 8th overall in the war. This effort also helped secure HSP 3rd place in the war. With out his work HSP would not be doing as well as it is. His example was a clear example to all of the newer members of the house.

He was more than just an example, he as Battleteam Leader he was not only a driving force in helping his team being active but the rest of the house as well. He was a constant source of suggestions for members who were looking for feedback on what they were working on. He was also a big team player on the events that were house level submissions instead of just individual submissions.

All in all Dante did amazing and outstanding work over the course of the war, both as a member and a leader here in HSP. I am truly grateful for his efforts. Thank you for all your work Dante and Congratulations. You have more than earned this.

Dante once again proved his standing as one of the our great heavy hitters in Scholae Palatinae. Over the course of the Crusade he knocked out 22 submissions and earned 2 Gold and 2 Silver Nova. He was the second most active member of House in the Crusade. There are few that can be relied on as consistently as Dante. For his outstanding efforts in this year of the Crusade, I recommend he be awarded this Grand Cross of the Dark Side. Thank you for continuing to be the rocking old man of HSP, Dante!

To whom it may concern:

Over the last six months, Dante has continued to demonstrate why he is the the "old man" of Scholae Palatinae. Dante continues to serve as the BTL of Dorimad Sol, a team full of incredibly driven and talented people. This team had all but one person go on to do stuff for the GJW. In this time frame Dante himself has gone on to earn 521 Clusters of Fire, 1 PoB, and 8 Clusters of Ice. He won a Bronze Nova from the Fading Light - Nicht Ka round. He has earned a further 11 crescents on top of that. Those come from 31 different competitions. Of those he had 5/5 Nicht Ka, 8/11 of HSP's Looking Home Campaign Finale, and 8 out of 11 for the GJW. It was Dante's vision for the Battleplan that pushed our team to take 4th for the event.

Dante has been instrumental in the filling of HSP's roster, beginning with his convincing of Delak to move from the EH to the DJB. At least seven new individuals have come to HSP because of this one conversion.

Dante remains one of the most loyal and hard working of the HSP members. He always gives good insight to issues and plans the House is undertaking. He has helped motivate and push HSP members into securing our third place victory in the GJW. He may be fond of the "laf"s and the "ZzzzzZ"s on IRC, but Scholae Palatinae definetely wouldn't be what it is without him. As thanks for his amazing last six months of effort, I recommend he be awarded this Grand Cross.
