Jedi Master - High Jedi General
Back in November of 2018, I passed Barriss Offee trials. After about a month of working with the 41st with their Jedi program, I was granted the rank of Master. I became Jedi Master Luminara so I could continue working with the 41st. I was equivalent to the rank of Commander within the 41st. With this rank, I would host mandatory simulations and trainings in order to promote higher quality leadership and standards. During my time as Luminara, the Council deemed me worthy of the rank, High Jedi General. This was not only due to my work within the Jedi Order, but also my work with the 41st. This made me the second person to ever achieve that rank within the Order that played as a regular named master.
Being Luminara, I was tasked with filling the role of Jedi Commander Barriss Offee. When looking for a Barriss, I made sure that the candidate had great leadership skills and were a great fit for the 41st. Throughout my time as Luminara, I had mentored over six Barriss’, most of which became masters for the Jedi Order.
After being Luminara Unduli for several months, I decided to go for another named master. I went for Aayla Secura and stayed within the 327th for about two months. I enjoyed my time as Aayla but decided to leave for Cin Drallig as I wanted to pursue a greater responsibility within the Jedi Order.
Cin Drallig -
After leaving the 327th, I decided it was finally time to go for a named High Jedi General. I decided to go for Cin because Shaak Ti was occupied at the time and I wanted to be a part of the Jedi leadership. I passed the trial and was placed as Temple Guard Lead at the time. My first goal as Cin Drallig was getting the Temple Guard branch active again. I did this by getting active TGMs, and an active TGML. After getting active managers I started hosting Serra Keto trials. Over my time as Cin, I’ve only had two Serra Keto. I made the position of Serra Keto an honorary TGM spot where if they wanted to, they could host TG trials but were not forced to.
During a Council Meeting around November of 2019, the role of Cin Drallig changed within the Order. He was now tasked with not only leading the Temple Guard but also take up a leadership role in the event of an absent Branch Lead. I welcomed this change with open arms as I wanted more work to do as Cin Drallig and really earn the position of being the 4th highest member in the Jedi Order. After becoming branch lead I took no time in seeking out new managers for the inactive branches. During that time I uphold the standards of branch managers and make sure that they are actively hosting trials.
Due to my outstanding contribution towards the Order, the council at the time deemed it fit to grant me the position of Honorary Master.
Around the time of December 2019 I was promoted to the position of Rancor Battalion Commander and took a step back as an active member of the Council, but always kept up to date with things going on in the Order.
Fast forward after my terms as Rancor BCMD. In July 2020 I was looking for something to do on the server as I was burnt out of Clone. I decided to take up an active position within the Order again. Unfortunately this term was cut short as Gears wiped the council.
After a bit of a break from the server I started playing again in November of 2020. I mained Jedi for a long while as Elder Knight Aaray. About a month of being back I decided to ask Maverick, who was the current Yoda at the time, if I could get my Honorary Master position back. Maverick had his council vote on it and I was promoted back to Honorary Master.
After waiting two weeks I decided to go for a named master position. This character was Aayla Secura. I got the position and since 327th didn’t exist on the server anymore I decided to join the 212th. During my time within the 212th as Aayla I assisted Luther (who was Jedi Lead at the time) with getting active Jedi within the battalion and increasing the battalion Jedi’s presence. Due to my work within the 212th, the council deemed it fit to promote me to the rank of Jedi General. After Luther got Shaak Ti and I went for Obi-Wan Kenobi and was accepted into the position. Being Obi-Wan I continued my duties with the 212th by getting new Jedi, assisting the battalion leadership with decisions as I was commander equivalent. I still continue doing this on a daily basis.
During my most recent term as Master I’ve tried to implement a lot of ideas for the Order. My most recent idea was the Council of Reassignment. This project was to assist Padawans that failed Knight trials by teaching them information related to the Jedi Order that could benefit/assist them when they take their Knight trial again. There is also tasks the Padawans can undertake within the Council of Reassignment that would shorten the cooldown period in-between knight trials (7 Days).
[2019 - 2020]
Rancor 1SG - Battalion Commander
Nearing the end of June 2019 I left the 41st and transferred into Rancor. Miller, who was BCMD at the time, gave me the rank 2ndLT. I played with Rancor for a bit and went to the eARC tryout and got the Alpha Designation. Unfortunately, I decided to leave the battalion and became a CT as the server was really boring at the time.
After being CT for about a month I decided to join again and I got the rank of 1SG. I started grinding in the battalion by hosting a lot of tryouts for new recruits as an NCO, assisting the high command in the ARC trainings and participating in events with my fellow NCOs and enlisted. I joined the Rocket Trooper branch within Rancor Under Stockings who was RTL at the time and being the most active RT at the time I got Rocket Trooper Officer. I revived the branch and made it the most active branch within Rancor. Shortly after, I was promoted to Rocket Trooper Lead and 2ndLT. After being promoted to 2ndLT, I continued with my normal duties like recruiting and taking up any leadership opportunities that were available for missions. I joined the intel team within Rancor so I could have something to do during the off-hours. For my good work within the battalion, I rose through the officer ranks and was promoted to the rank of Major. After obtaining the rank of Major I now had permission to host all of the ARC trainings for ARCTs. I was often willing to host the trainings when required. I really enjoy hosting the ARC trainings for ARCTs as I feel I am teaching the newer generation what it means to be an ARC trooper.
Why should you become Grand Master?:
There are a multitude of reasons as to why I am applying for Grand Master.
The main reason I am applying for Yoda is because I feel I could further the order greatly as Grand Master. I feel this way because during my more recent run as Jedi Master I’ve noticed that the Jedi Order has issues with it’s activity and presence on the server. I feel an easy way to combat this and have Jedi actively on the server is to have increased presence of Jedi Leadership on said server. I know that having named/key characters on the server encourages others to get on and take part in whatever may be happening. As Grand Master I am going to be implementing a section within the Order, solely dedicated to missions given by Masters for Padawans and Knights to undertake and complete for rewards. *(I.E Merits, Crystals, Rec, and so on) I will create missions that will have branches work together as well. This will ensure that branches within the Jedi Order learn how to co-exist and work with each other.
If I were to get this position I am going to reevaluate the current council and work with the masters to help guide the order in a positive direction and a positive place for players to voice their opinions or concerns without having to worry about having any repercussions. I am going to do this by hosting Jedi Wide meetings on a bi-weekly setting where members of the Jedi Order can meet and discuss current topics.
I have ideas that will make the general ranks have actual meaning and have more responsibilities within the Order. For example if a Master is promoted to General they would be placed in charge of a pre existing group of three to four masters. The Generals in charge would be responsible for making sure the masters under them are:
>Hosting Knight and Youngling trials properly and consistently
>Are up to the standards of Master
>Maintaining activity on the server
I constant task I will have throughout my term as Grand Master is that I will be working closely with the people under my supervisor and training them on what it means to be a Jedi, as I feel these Knights and Padawans are the future of this very Order!
Do you understand the lore of the Jedi Order (as relevant to Clone Wars)?: Yes
Availability: I work in the evenings so I would most likely be on in the mornings and all day on weekends. However I will always be contactable through Discord!
Give a brief overview of your achievements on the server: My most prized achievement on the server was being Rancor Battalion Commander for two terms. My second biggest achievement is being a part of the Jedi Order for a long duration as a master. (Three years) and achieving the rank of High Jedi General without being a “big four” named character. I am a Medal of Honor recipient due to my work as Rancor BCMD. I also achieved the rank of Head Admin in the staff team!
Do you have a microphone?: yes
Where do you want the Jedi Order to be at the end of your term?: As any Yoda would want at the end of their term is for the Jedi Order to strive and have a large presence within the Server. Throughout my term I plan on making the Jedi Order an actual respected faction within the server and not some "Laser Sword for players DLC" as many have claimed it to be in the past. I am going to work closely with members of my Order to ensure when the times comes for me to move on, another dedicated individual would be able to step up and maintain the vision I had for the Order.
How do you plan to improve relations within the Jedi Order between branches?: My main plan for improving relations between branches is to use the mission section I stated previously in the app. I plan on adding certain missions that require different branches to work together in order to successfully complete the mission.
Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?: yes
Do you understand that your position has a three month term limit and you must reapply after three months to maintain your Grand Master rank?: yes
If anyone has any questions feel free to post them on this thread or you can DM me @ ZBlewy#3787 on Discord!
