Scholae Palatinae Master Student Program

Master-Student Relationships go back to the days before Great Schism. Inexperienced Jedi have always found wisdom and guidance from more experienced mentors. In this fashion, student and master, the Jedi explored the Galaxy and became more in tune with the powers of the Force. Like the Jedi, the forces of Darkness have also been reliant on the experience and knowledge of seasoned Force-users to their apprentices. Master and pupil, as it always has been, and always will be. This how a Dark Jedi develops into a true welder of the Dark Side.

Program of Scholae Palatinae

The Master-Student Program is much more than simply passing knowledge of the Dark Side. Through the Master-Student Program the lasting bonds of fellowship are forged to the house, the brotherhood and to each other. The primary goal of this program is to help Journeymen have a greater integration into the Brotherhood while allowing the Master to pass on personal insights and experiences in a meaningful relationship. Masters use their experience and knowledge of the brotherhood to help their student grow and advance to be productive and integral parts of the house and Brotherhood. The relationship between Master and Apprentice are key to the success of the Brotherhood as a whole.

As the focus of this system is for the benefit of the Student, the program is flexible to the needs and abilities of the Student. At the rank of Protector, Journeymen are permitted to enter into the program. To receive a master, the Journeyman needs to contact the Rollmaster or another Summit member. Alternatively if a Journeyman already is close to a potential master, they both should contact the Summit to inform them.

There was a time when the role of the Master was to be the direct teacher of the Student, but no more. Students are expected to be driven and able to advance without having their hand held through the ranks. The Master serves as a guide, pointing the student in directions that will make the journey to Dark Jedi Knight much easier as well as being able to give advice that can only come from the experience of being in the Brotherhood for periods of time.

With the Brotherhood wide Promotion Requirements, the roles of a master have greatly changed. Once they were in charge the tasks the Student would endure, The Trials. However with the specific guidelines insuring fair and equal ways for all to reach Dark Jedi Knight the Tasks have become a thing of the past. Master’s guide and mentor the Student along the set of requirements. More importantly, it is the task of the Master to teach the Student of being a member of the Brotherhood. Students are the future leaders of the Brotherhood, and the role of Master is one that should not be taken lightly.

Beyond the position of Mentor and Student, the bond between Master and Student is a very strong one. In many cases Master and Student are very strongly allied and the bond should not be broken even through the tests of time.

Masters

In the Brotherhood today, Masters are mentors and aides to their students with the hope of educating them in the more complicated workings of the Brotherhood. Masters need to have a solid grip of the policies and functioning of the Brotherhood as to be able to clearly direct and inform their Students. There are several important traits a Master should have most importantly being patient. Students are still new and inexperienced in the Brotherhood and cannot be expected to know everything or pick up things after only hearing it once.

Masters are only allowed one (1) student at a time. Exceptions are only made in extreme cases and must have the approval of the House Summit. As well do not just assume a Journeyman is your apprentice. Confirmation is required by the Summit. As well with the recent revisions to Equite Promotion Requirements, in order to be promoted from EQ2 to EQ3, one must train a Journeyman to Dark Jedi Knight. This should not be the only reason to seek to be a master however, as the experience is very rewarding.

Master Requirements:

• Masters must at least be EQ1 in order to train a Student (Exceptions may be allowed following Summit Approval)
• Masters must maintain their own level of activity in the House; e.g. Participation, IRC, etc.
• Masters must have a 48-hour email turnaround
• Masters should be familiar with the Promotion Requirements for all the Journeymen Ranks
• Masters must be in good status with the House and Brotherhood

Master Responsibilities:

• Be aware and responsive to the needs of the Student
• Be available to aid and respond o the Student at all times
• Be helpful in every possible facet of the Brotherhood, or be able to direct the Student to those who can aid
• Inform the Summit when Student is within 1 requirement of Promotion and again when the Student is ready for advancement
• Provide a Recommendation for Promotion for the Student at the appropriate time; to be sent to the Summit who will send in the actual request
• Maintain constant support to the Student and be willing to encourage the Student to continue

Students

At the rank of Protector Journeymen may request to join the MSP. Before reaching this rank Journeymen are encouraged to find help from many sources and people to help the integrate. The House Rollmaster is expected to be the primary advisor prior to entering the MSP, and then as overseer of the MSP for these later ranks. As students are still new to the Brotherhood, there is no other requirement for them to enter into the MSP.

Advise to Students:

• Make sure the Master you end up with is someone you can work with.
• Try to remain open to suggestions and advise; Masters are the experienced ones and are not trying to lead you astray.
• Don’t be afraid to voice your opinion and thoughts. Ask questions and be involved. The more you interact with your Master the better they can help you.
• Remember the Brotherhood is here to be FUN!
