As you all know Nokzhal and myself have initiated a New Era for the Shadow, a glorious Golden Age of Discovery! With our new-found friendships in Silvermoon and abroad our ability to take the battles to our enemies is becoming stronger and longer in reach. That is why we have decided to re-engineer our ideas on promotions from within, to promote cooperation and trust within our Order. We have decided on the following:
Promotions from Initiate to Adept will remain unchanged as it has served us well. Major requirements are two weeks of activity, and a showing of faith. These will move you into full membership.
Adept to Guard:
During this time depending on your class, we will find a suitable mentor to help you along your way. This mentor will be of your class ((editors note: or most similar class!)) and will have valuable experiences to share as they guide you further in your personal development. At the time you are both strong enough and have shown your devotion to our cause you will enter the ranks of the Shadow Guard, and undoubtedly have a comrade you can rely on for the rest of your stay with us.
Guard and Above:
As you become stronger and more experienced you will probably wonder “what’s next?” well I have your answers.
The ranks of Elite Guard, Shadow Stalker, and If you are worthy, Dark Lord. These will require more dedication, you will have to show a complete devotion to not only the shadow but to The Dark Lady herself. Only our best and brightest will be considered, but I know that we have chosen you all with this in mind and it should not be a problem to find those who embody these qualities.
It is my hope that this will aid you all in your journey and I look forward to seeing you all grow in strength.
In Her Name,
Lady Seriina Numenesse
Regent Lord of the Shadow
