Taldryan Consul Report 6-21-04
Sorry this report is a day late, but I got back from vacation late Sunday night so I figured this report could wait until Monday morning. On a personal note Im addicted to the book, The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. I started it two days ago and I only have 50 pages left (which I intend to finish after I write this report), damn addicting book. Anyways, pretty much nothing happened this week in the DB, since its a GJW break week. So this report is going to be quick and painless.

5th GJW - http://gjw.darkjedibrotherhood.com/ 1st round is over!
-Chapter 2 of the GJW was scheduled to start on June 20th (thats yesterday), but either 1) Jac isnt back from his LoA yet, or 2) He hasnt had time to post the new events yet. Either way Chapter 2 of the GJW will be starting very soon, so be ready!
-Final Clan Submission count for round one:
Taldryan - 80 submissions + completed Run-on with 71 posts
Arcona - 79 submissions + completed Run-on with 75 posts
Tarentum - 55 submissions + completed Run-on with 50 posts
Satal Keto - 50 submissions + completed Run-on with 50 posts
Naga Sadow - 46 submissions + completed Run-on with 79 posts
Scholae Palatinae - 23 posts + completed Run-on with 54 posts
Exar Kun - 14 submissions + incomplete Run-on
-And here it is, my GJW CHAPTER 2 GOAL: 100 submissions from Taldryan! Thats right, you read it correctly, for chapter two I want us to hit one hundred submissions. We had 80 this time, thats so close! All we need to get one hundred is for everyone to do just one more event, or for some of those people who couldnt participate in round one to step up in round two. This is an achievable goal, and it would definitely keep us ahead of the rest of the DB.
And...if we hit that 100 submissions mark for the second round...this Consul *will hand out some hefty rewards to those who help us do it!*
-Thats all the GJW for this report, if you have any questions about the War, feel free to email me at [Log in to view e-mail addresses], or you can email your QUA!

Clan Taldryan News
-The Clan Taldryan JO server is now gone because the company who runs it went out of business. Im looking for a new hosting company as we speak and hopefully Ill have a new Tal server up ASAP.
-Also you might have noticed that Sharad was still around lately despite officially being on a leave of absence. Well dont expect to see him around for quite awhile now, because his wedding date is fast approaching!
-House Dinaari finally received its reward for winning the Obelisk Rite of Supremacy (I know, that was a LONG time ago). Here is the description of the reward:
The Rite of the Firmament
And far beyond the vale of night
The vastness of time separated
the light from the darkness
And the Ancient One spoke
With a voice like thunder
A sound to shatter mountains
"Let there be a firmament
erected between the house of day
and the house of night
So that the passing of each
Shall never mingle with the wards
of dawn and twilight."
Having spoken thus,
They were separated thus
And the Ancient One was pleased
-From the Kerijanh Fragments of the Song of Son'Jiatt
This Rite was first used by the Warriors of the Circled Dagger at the Siege of Monmora. High Master Jeraha, and his warriors of the Star Chamber, faced an onslaught of Jedi Masters the likes of which had not been encountered since the Battle of Deneba during the Great Sith War. Greatly outnumbered, Jeraha called upon the Darkness, and the allegiance of his circle of warriors. Ferran had vested in each the particular cunning of his own war-skills, and through this bond, Jeraha created the Rite, uniting the power of each participant so that all could tap deeper levels of the Dark Side through their mutual bonds of fraternity.
Krath scholars discovered the curious rite during excavations on Antei. When even the Oracle, Trevarus Caerick, was unable to decipher the requirements of the Ritual, the process was dictated to the Obelisk High Commander, who realized what it was. The Order of the Obelisk maintained enough of the traditions of the path of the Assassin, that he felt the cold resolve of Master Jeraha. High Commander Shaithis bestowed the secrets of this Art upon the Obelisk of House Dinaari of Clan Taldryan as a reward for their bravery and skill in the Obelisk Right of Supremecy.
Structure:
By reciting the following oath in perfect unison, all the assembled Jedi of the Obelisk Order will have a level of power equivalent to the highest ranking Obelisk in the group for the duration of their immediate conflict.
Perficere Ferro Anima constatum invictum
This ritual creates a singular consciousness within the Obelisk affected. Their personalities become fused into a communal mind, they have no free will. Instead, they are perfectly focused on the immediate danger until its conclusion, at which point the ritual immediately ceases effect
-All Clan Projects and Programs are on hold for the duration of the GJW.
DB News
-Remember all news posts on djb.com are in character for the duration of the GJW, so that is why they are a little different than usual.
-Since both the Taldryan and Tarentum JO servers are gone now (temporarily), the HM has set up a JO server to help people who still want to play. You can find it at this IP: 213.9.41.50:28070. Its a small server so only play with 4 people at a time, no more. Hopefully Ill have a new Tal server up ASAP.
-Some of you may have noticed a ways back that PCON Sharad resigned as the Eclectic Pedagog of the Obelisk CORE Shadow Academy course. HM Kaiann asked for applications for his replacement and I got the spot! In case you didnt know I already grade the entrance exam to the DB, the Test of Lore, but now Im the EP for the Obelisk Core exam too. So if you are taking the core test and you have any questions, feel free to ask me and I can help you out!
-Some of you have been playing in the weekly Saturday Multiplayer event called the Interclub Training Event. Well starting last week, the ICTE has been replaced by Celestial Fury, which will become the new Saturday Multiplayer event. Celestial Fury is an interclub competition that will be taking place every Saturday in #outerrim from 2 pm EST to 11 pm EST. The competition revolves around attacking planets controlled by other clubs. If you are interested in signing up, talk to LCM Mav and check out the website here: http://fury.starwarsalliance.net. I played in it this week and it was pretty fun!
-To repeat an old (but important!) announcement Arania has asked me to make an announcement about personal possessions. As she is currently compiling a list of them for approval and the like (in preparation for Rebirth), I would like to ask all members that have personal artifacts and poisons to submit a description of the item and any effects to Arania. However, this does NOT mean the item is automatically approved and is now "official," but submitting it to Arania is part of the process. So get to it! This includes custom weapons used in the ACC. This is important if you want any of your characters possessions to be recognized once Rebirth starts, so email Arania at [Log in to view e-mail addresses] with yours!
-The Krath Monthly Topics (KMTs) for June are Feral Sheep and The Force, more details can be found in the KHPs weekly report. While these are good writing exercises that I like to see our members complete, I STRESS that GJW events should take precedence over these!
