• Epis Dark Sabre Taldrya: Epis Dark Sabre has gone too long unrecognized for his long-standing service to his Clan and the Brotherhood as a whole. In these times of open war, there are those among us who will rise above the fallen and achieve in the face of an enemy whose only mercy is death and whose number is legion. These are the Dark Jedi to whom the lesser among us must look and draw from them inspiration to carry my will to the enemy.

Let none among Taldryan or the Brotherhood forget what Dark Sabre has given us over these last weeks of blood. Let no one look upon him and not see that his scars from this war are more fitting a recognition of honor than any award or promotion. And let none among you address him as Epis hence. He has helped to lead Taldryan to victory through his actions in single combat as well as with his trusted advice to his leadership. For his wisdom in scholarly pursuits and his prowess on the battlefield, I, Grand Master Sarin, elevate Dark Sabre to the rank of Pontifex. <br>

<br> I’ve wanted to do this for a long time. Dark Sabre was my first Aedile and was always there to help me up until I took over house Ektrosis. DS worked his ass off ths GJW to take first in the ACC portion. He also managed to post in the RO, do a handful of gaming matches, and he did 2 fictions getting first in one. DS has been a great member of the clan for over four years, and has done much since his promotion to Epis. It has been over two years since his promotion to Epis. He ended his term as Quaestor during that time as well as being a Guard Caption in the GMRG. He was also a Magistrate to the Deputy Grand Master and Headmaster while working in the ACC. Dark Sabre also helped the clan in every major event since his last promotion. He worked hard in both the ORoS and the Second Darkness as well as giving everything he had to the 6th and 7th Great Jedi War’s. I’ve been waiting to be a part of one of your promotions for a long time DS and I’m glad I got this opportunity give you something you deserve. Congratulations on your promotion to Pontifex.

While I don't know DarkSabre on a more personal level, I've still seen his prowess in writing and the mark he's left on Ektrosis. DS is a flat-out outstanding writer, as evidenced by his dominance in the Seventh Great Jedi War's ACC ladder. With forty-three matches, and only five losses, DS claimed first place in the ladder and helped seal first place for Taldryan in the ladder. He had the second most matches in the event, and only times out on three, clearly showing his dedication to Taldryan using his gift for writing, something we desperately needed in this War.

DarkSabre wasn't exclusively an ACC writer, and made a two fiction submissions, placing in one of those, and placed in one of two poetry/graphics submissions. A loyal member of Ektrosis, DS has been here for quite some time and is always ready to pop in and help his fellow Clanmates through their struggles against other Clans. A leader by example, DarkSabre has indirectly encouraged many to participate heavily in the ACC. The monster that was CSP the first half of the War was decimated in the second half as the Taldrya stepped up and eradicated any notion of CSP taking the ACC event. DS spearheaded this, and without is early motivation and perseverance, our success might not have come and Taldryan's race with CSP for First Clan of the Brotherhood even closer. For demonstrating skill, determination, and dedication, I am happy to award DarkSabre the rank of Krath Pontifex, congratulations!
