Standard Competitions

Individual competitions are the foundational block of sanctioned competition within the Dark Brotherhood, their structure is replicated and relied upon for all large scale events/competitions and they are the most prolific and accessible of all competitions, as they can be organised by any member of the Brotherhood so long as the initial proposal is approved.

Competition Approval

Each competition must be approved before it is released so that parity in awards and standards are maintained.

Target Unit	Approved by
Battleteam	Quaestor, Aedile
House	Consul, Proconsul
Clan	Consul, Proconsul
DB-Wide, Inter-Clan	Dark_Side_Compendium_Dark_Council

Note: Any inter-House competition that takes place within a single Clan is considered to be a Clan level competition, any inter-House competition that takes place between two or more Clans is considered to be an Inter-Clan competition.

Note: A leader of each unit participating in a competition or someone above them in their Chain of Command must have approved of a competition before it is submitted for review.

Competition Format

For a competition to be approved the following information is required so that the competition can be fully understood, scheduled and executed consistent with the standard competition format.
