☙ How Points, Presence, and Progression Work Within the Order ❧
“A knight is not measured by his volume, nor by his station—but by the quiet ledger of deeds performed, and the memory of them kept.”
There are no dukes in the Order.
No overlords. No entitled veterans.
We count not time spent, but acts made.
This is the esoterica of participation—a system deliberately transparent in its structure, but arcane in its beauty. Rooted not in points alone, but in memory, effort, and purpose.
✠ A Fellowship Built on Deeds
Participation within the Order is tracked not for competition, but celebration. It exists to:
- Encourage all forms of engagement, from creative to conversational
- Ensure that invisible labor is remembered
- Give shape to a knight’s journey, not by rank but by rhythm
You need not be prolific. You need not be perfect.
You need only be present.
✠ The Structure of Points
All knightly participation is organized through the Four Commanderies:
- The Chancellery — administrative work and event stewardship
- The Collegium — artistic, literary, and cultural engagement
- The Black Chevron — action, service, and physical participation
- The Veiled Hand — strategic, social, and subtle contributions
Each activity earns you marks, recorded by scribes and tallied over time. These may include:
- Hosting or attending events
- Creating art or writing
- Participating in challenges
- Reviewing films or books
- Supporting others visibly or behind the scenes
The exact number is secondary. What matters is the pattern. The ritual. The remembrance.
✠ Ranks Earned by Fibonacci
Promotions within the Order follow a Fibonacci sequence—a symbolic progression rooted in nature, myth, and elegance. The gaps between each rank grow wider, not to frustrate, but to reward consistency and craft.
There are titles, yes—Initiate, Knight Aspirant, Knight Ordinary, Knight Commander, Preceptor—but none confer dominion. Only recognition.
You may even rise without knowing it. The Order notices.
✠ A Ledger, Not a Ladder
This is not a race.
There is no summit.
Your service may be loud, or it may be quiet.
It may be monthly, or seasonal, or rare but radiant.
But when you take up your chevron—when you give your time, your mind, your kindness, your effort—the Order remembers.
We are building something together.
And in that building, every stone matters.
