Restoration of Former Member Dossiers

There are occasions in which people wish to become active members again in the Dark Brotherhood but their dossier is no longer available. A dossier may be lost under a variety of circumstances, including deletion after the Split, requested deletion, failure to reply to the DB-Wide AWOL checks or database error. Unless the Chamber of Justice has acted to remove a member’s dossier for cause, all former members are entitled to have their previous rank and medals in the club restored.

A member who wants to have their dossier restored must contact the Master at Arms, the Grand Master, the Deputy Grand Master and the Seneschal with a request. The request should at the very least supply the Dark Councilors with the basic information that was on the dossier, such as the profile name, the profile email address or the pin number. The Seneschal and Grand Master will search database backups for a copy of the member’s records. If the record exists, the latest version will be restored. If the record does not exist, the member will have to supply extrinsic proof to establish his dossier status. The following is a non-exhaustive list of extrinsic sources:

• Former DB websites
• Wayback machine website caches
• Dark Voice Newsletters
• Verified Emails containing an ID Line
• Message Board posts

Proof of medals, even when dated properly, will not be assumed from the presence of those medals in the EHDB database. Members may not have their EHDB medals that were obtained after April 12, 2003 transferred to their DB dossiers.

The Master at Arms is responsible for determining if extrinsic evidence is sufficient for proof. Upon proof of the member’s dossier possessions, the Master at Arms will restore the dossier as such.
