House Caliburnus Report for week ending 11/04/2006

Unit News

Firstly, my reports are about to become a bit more interesting:

I'm indroducing a fiction section where each week I'll reveal more of my history, until the plotline of my character's history is complete. Then I'll think of something else.

I'll start with the start of her life:

4 ABY - A twi'leki girl is born into royalty on the harsh planet of Ryloth. Her father, a light Jedi, refuses to train her in the ways of the force. Even as only a young girl, her frustration grows as she develops a lust to use the Force.

Now for some proper news:

There'll be a big competition coming up soon across the whole of CSP. Keep your eyes open for details from the Clan Summit.

Unit Competitions

DB Competitions

SA Trivia

As often as possible, but no more than once per week, the Shadow Academy will host a DB wide, weekly trivia event.

The target time will be each Saturday at 1:00 EST; however, the time may vary. The HM or the P:HM will make any proper announcements regarding a time change.

Each trivia event shall consist of at least 15 questions (no more than 25) on various topics, all related to the DB or Star Wars.

If the HM or Praetor is unavailable to run the trivia, another member of the SA staff will be given the chance to do so.

November MTs

Alright, here's the scoop on the Monthy Topics. November's Monthly Topic is "Training". Training is an integral part of a Dark Jedi's life. It is only through training that we can both remain in peak shape and learn new aspects of the Force. While there are surely many different schools of thought within the Dark Brotherhood that pertain to training, please describe your own for us. This can take the form of a specific past training experience, or as a more general description of a typical training day.

As usual, there will be fiction, poetry and graphics divisions. Fiction should be minimum 1.5 pages at TNR or Arial 12-point (or equivalent), poetry is freestyle and graphics should be no larger than 800x600.

Tyno got awarded a Dark Cross on 10/28/2006 (Tyno is a great member. His focus has always been towards developing his character to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight and, to this day, I can say his focus has not wavered. He has over the past two months, been the active leader of his Battle Team, helping push competition, stimulate activity and worked alongside his Quaestor and Aedile to revive House Caliburnus. Tyno has also racked up an astronomical amount of Clusters of Fire for Multiplayer Gaming events, over 80 CFs in the month of October. This Journeyman has also held an impeccable presence on IRC, joining the Clan Channel nearly everyday of the week. He has participated in several of the Clan's Weekly Trivia events, meriting several Legions of the Scholar. Tyno competed and successfully won several Clan Naming Competitions. Also taking the time to display his writing prowess, Tyno has participated in the House Caliburnus Run-on.

Though, even as he completes these challenges... Tyno has maintained great activity on SWG (A DBPA: Darth Lord). Dakari, more than once, has told me

about Tyno's willingness to help DB members and his continued activity on the server. For his continued leadership, his activity and willingness to help SWG players (cough*Muz*cough) and being a vital, active member of Scholae Palatinae's continued success through his example and participation. There is irrefutable evidence that this member deserves this award for Activity, presence, and going above and beyond the call of duty. Excellent work, Jedi Hunter Tyno!
