House Byss Quaestor Report
The chambers of Bant Komad reflected their owner perfectly: small, durable and with purpose. The room was situated on the outer rim of the fortified citadel of House Byss, on the planet of Eden. Around him, the chamber was decorated in whites, beiges and creams, all the furniture was minimalistic but comfortable, and the dimunitive Nimdan sat cross-legged, eyes closed in meditation.
Before the Epis, a small, spherical droid twittered and beeped. This was Bants journal, and as the time came, it spoke to him

What of the House?
ØThere is talk that Exar Kun may be made into an Independent House rather than a full Clan, because of the member shortage. I do not like this idea, but support it as it may be the only way to keep Exar Kun alive, and once we have enough members, the Clan can be re-instated. Ironically, this is the same situation throughout the DB. Email CON Khan ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]) with your thoughts. If it happens, I will become the TET of the Krath phyle of Exar Kun.
ØNOV Lugh Luanna has built the House Website and has agreed to stay on as webmaster with the help of Blade Dranal of Cestus of Tarentum.
ØWe have an egroup [Log in to view e-mail addresses] - that is for all members to use. I would like to see it utilised more than it currently is!
ØSignatures, Crests and Portraits are being found for all current and future Byss members. If you wish to find your own, check http://www.renderosity.com. Use them in official communications, and send them to myself for cataloguing, if you desire.
ØThe identity of House Byss has been made out as the spies, informants and information gatherers of the Dark Brotherhood. With this in mind, we can tailor our writings, beliefs and works to fit this unique flavour.
ØDont forget to CC me on all the work you submit to anyone, so I can track what youre doing.
ØStrangely quiet on the activity front this week Yet theres loads to do, and not much I can say but, do it, or tell me what you want!
What activities are there?
ØThe In Charatcer and Out Of Character Message boards are required to be submitted to by all members every week. The In Character board describes you characters activities for that week and the Out Of Character is for your thoughts and what you have been really doing. This will boost writing skill and Character development, and hopefully, loyalty. The link is http://www.chaoslogic.com/db/message_board/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=11. These are not being used enough! It is now mandatory to use them as the guidelines above state.
ØCON Khan is running a fiction competition. Write the story of how Alvaak removed itself from the thrall of Grand Admiral Ronin and became Clan Exar Kun in all its glory. If you dont know what happened, because you are new, please contact me and I shall summarise the main events. See the Exar Kun website for details.
ØKrath Monthly Topics: Story Titled Prophecy. Create and write some ancient (or even "modern") Sith/Krath Prophecy. This could be done in any style - e.g. poetry - just an old tale being told about the prophecy. But you must actually create an entirely original idea for this. Creativity highly favoured, and while humour is good. . . I'd prefer only serious entries. And, as always, extremely dark and creepy scores bonus points since we are Dark Jedi, after all. A minimum of a page, despite the form. To be submitted to Ciara ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]).
Other Dark Jedi have problems too! Write at least 2 'Agony Aunt from a Dark Jedi. These are letters that appear in magazines, often about teenage emotional problems, and are answered by an 'Agony Aunt'.
ØWrite a story about the split of the DB from the EH from your characters perspective, entitled Exodus and submit it to KHP Alanna. Minimum of 2 pages, Arial 12pt font.
ØHOUSE COMPETITION: Create a psychological profile of Bant Komad. Submit to Bant Komad ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]) by Saturday 19th July. No limits on length, but must be .doc, .txt or .rtf format. Winner receives a Cresent with Sapphire Star.
ØHOUSE COMPETITION: Create a history with as much detail as possible and submit it to me. A prize will be given for the best and so on, and this will also go towards promotions and future competitions.
ØHELP THE CON COMPETITION: Rewrite Khans history for him (http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.org/dbjedi/history.asp?ID=1473), correcting grammar and spelling and ironing it out. Hell reward you with his favour when looking at medals and promos ;-)
ØCLAN SYSTEM The Clan planetary system has been built by myself and Brenn already, in the earlier days of CEK. If you wish to see the details, please contact me.
Has anyone excelled or failed impressively?
ØDJK Brenn has been more active this week, and has been present on the egroup and submitted a History!
ØPRT Sinjin been inactive for this week.
ØJH Erryc Lassiter has been present on IRC, the message boards and the egroups, and has passed the IRC and Mediation courses at the Shadow Academy.
ØACO Lugh Luanna is currently building a been serving as webmaster for Byss, and has created graphic signatures for the House membership, as well as passing the Sith Studies, IRC and Mediation course at the Shadow Academy.
ØNOV Bartleby has been submitted a history to his DB dossier and been promoted to Acolyte!
What are your thoughts?
ØI worry about Exar Kun being made a House. If this is to happen, then it will be repeated throughout the brotherhood because of the lack of members. In my opinion, it is better to remain structured by small than small and concentrated. However, if it will improve activity and help the DB, so be it.
ØI am currently changing employment, which is the reason Im less active than normal. I figure I should be back to full strength in another weeks time whilst I settle in there, but my communication response and presence shouldnt be affected, only my more frequent emails.
Any parting directions?
