Report for week ending 8/11/2003

1:Important news,

My inbox had more messages from the HM, MAA and CHAN than ever before, so do you what this means? There are people in this house being active thus I'm a happy drunken QUA. :p

As most of you are probably aware our new PCON Rai is now our new CON. I've also appointed GRD Pichpemmtonhet as TET of the Night Hawks so if you wish to be placed in the phyle contact both him and myself.

As for the position of AED, I should have an announcement on that during the week, but I'm no longer accepting applications fro the job.

Ok, now it's time to beg. I still need someone to design the HMR website. So if you are interested contact me ASAP.

"The Prophecy"

I wish you good fortune

And strength

Against challenge from others

To be influential

And want for nothing

Always in service

Here into this hour

For upon this night

They are watching you walk

Through the shadows, and sideways

Into the deepest midnight

The moon lit upon your face

Will you stand proud

Or will you falter?

For in this game of consequence

None shall be left standing

If your are not steadfast

They see you step

They count your days

And you live out the moments

One by one

Until they come for you

And drag you to oblivion

These words fill the heart of the apprentice with icy dread.

He runs screaming from the Observatory, blood running from his eyes in thick rivers, staining his white robes. Dead, an hour later, he is found; the pages torn but decipherable in his cold fingers.

The Dark Council hushes the incident, but within a day, the

entire Krath Order and a few among the Sith and Obelisk have heard these words. What do they mean? How will they react?

Entries (and complaints about the length of the topic ;P) to Trev please: [Log in to view e-mail addresses]

1. Epic comp - closing date getting near for this!
   

See previous reports for full details.

Take the persona of some ancient powerful Dark Jedi. It must be some non-descript person, so no official characters, but some ancient Jedi that didn't make it to quite such heights of power. Tell his, or her, story.

We're expecting entries to be in the 10+ pages range.

Closing date extended to 21st November

Submit to Ciara, Trevarus and Alanna

In closing,

The Master Student program is always open to those who want to take that path in their studies, so if anyone else wants in on it contact me. If there is anybody in the house not on the House or Clan mailing list contact me and I'll sort it out. I hope to see more of you on IRC.

If anybody has anything they want to bring up with me feel free to do so even if it's only to suggest a comp.

In Darkness,

KAP Janos Silverwulf

Quaestor of Marka Ragnos
