[1.0 | Introduction]
This document goes over a summarized explanation of how promotions work for each rank. We do things a more traditional way because we believe there is nothing wrong with simplicity. We’ve tried different promotion structures, databases, and the like but we settled on the traditional way as it suits our community the best.
[2.0 | Celvestian Philosophy]
“Even the darkest of warriors have a heart of gold.”
“We’re a family. We’re a game studio. We’re war enthusiasts. We’re a role play group. We’re a community. We’re a hangout. We’re everything. We’re Celvestia.”
“Remember what we’ve accomplished. Remember what we’ve built. And remember to stay true to your Heart of Gold. For it will never stop beating as long as you believe in yourself. You are your greatest enemy. So be stubborn and keep pushing. You will win. Because we all believe in you. Celvestia will always have your back. No matter what.”
[3.0 | Promotion Structure]
The promotion structure is a traditional approach to how promotions were done back in the old days of clanning. As an LR when you attend events you’d want to do good enough where you’ve impressed the host with the work you’ve put in into the training and they feel as if you deserve a promotion from your current LR rank. It’s pretty simple and relatively easy to move up the LR ranks. However, the MR ranks are different. They’re not as easy to go through because they’re purely based on your time dedicated to the group and your loyalty. The longer you’ve stayed in the group and the more events you attend, the higher the chance you’ll have at ranking up. You’ll be noticed very quickly if you’re active and attending the majority of events and you won’t have difficulty advancing through the ranks. Overall, the LR and MR structure isn’t that difficult to progress through. But we’ll go more in-depth in the following sections below and briefly touch HR/HC promotions.

[3.2 | Requirements]
This section will go over how you’ll be promoted from one rank to the next. It’s mostly a general overview so don’t expect a super in-depth analysis. You can always learn more about these ranks and what we’re expecting from the members of each rank in the main guide.
[X] Celvestian Citizen to [L1] Citerius: This is by far the easiest rank up in the Celvestian structure. All you have to do is attend any event and ask for the promotion from Citizen to L1 since you want to participate in the military of Celvestia.
[L1] Citerius - [L5] Zistra: Promotions for the LR ranks are fairly simple. They’re the most traditional in the Celvestian structure. As long as you do good at events you’ll most likely soar through these ranks fairly quickly. Attending and doing really good at trainings is one of the quickest ways to fly through the LR rankings as that’s a really good opportunity for you to display your skills and leadership for the hosts to see. It all varies between different hosts and their expectations so don’t expect you’ll impress every single one. As long as you keep trying and show that you are making an effort to get better and show improvement then we will definitely notice.
[L5] Zistra to [M1] Bastillius: Transitioning from LR to MR is a pretty big deal. What we’re mostly looking for when we promote you to MR status is your plans moving forward with the group. We want to know if you’re willing to keep going further in the group and eventually reach the status of HR and beyond. MR is your step closer to being cemented as a Cherished Celvestian. You want to be remembered for what you did in Celvestia. So make the effort and show up to as many events as you can. Because we notice. We all notice when you’re active and when you’re not. So when you feel like you’re ready to dedicate more time to Celvestia and it’s community then you will transition into MR status. And we’ll know when you’re ready.
[M1] Bastillius - [M3] Sisteria: As previously mentioned above, MR status is purely based on how much time and dedication you have towards Celvestia. We value your loyalty and we test it through the MR ranks. The more events you attend and the more time and effort you put into the group, the more we’ll take note of your efforts and consider a promotion. Majority of the time TheCelvestian himself notices when certain MRs are putting in a lot of effort in being active and participating in all types of activities and he personally promotes them. If you can’t dedicate yourself to Celvestia nor put the time and effort to stay active and be a beneficial part of the community then you’ll have a tough time powering through these ranks.
[M3] Sisteria to [M4] Gradastian: As a sisteria ranked Celvestian, you’ll be asked by an H2+ or higher if you’d like to take the Siderian Oath to become an M4. This is usually after the H2+ notice your efforts as an MR and have decided that you are a valued member of Celvestia and can progress further into her ranks. Don’t worry if you feel anxious or don’t know how to host events. You can always request a Gradastian Supervisor to help you and there’s videos/guides to follow when hosting certain types of events. You’ll be okay.
[M4] Gradastian to [H1] Kernalvus: Advancing from M4 to H1 requires the HC+ and the Venerius himself to consider you and place a vote for you to become an H1. If we deem you worthy then you’ll progress into becoming an H1. If we deem you unworthy we will let you know and attach our reasoning along with it. If you get declined you can work with the HC to see how you can improve in their eyes so that you may become an H1.
[H1] Kernalvus to [HC2] Celvas: These ranks are based on voting done by the HC and the Venerius. We look for how active you are, how helpful you are in the community, how considerate you are of others, how effective you are as a leader, and many other skills that contribute to the well being of Celvestia. Be an absolute powerhouse of an HR and you’ll do amazing.

All questions regarding the promotion system may be directed at H2+ or the Venerius himself. If you believe there can be improvements made to the structure then please suggest them as we’re always willing to hear feedback and make adjustments wherever necessary.
