Greetings all,

House News:

We are now in Week Three of Reclamation! This is a great chance to earn yourself some shinies as well as help prove that House Caliburnus is the best House of the Clan. We have two weeks left of this clan wide event, so get out there and do what you can to participate, every little bit counts!

Reclamation Site:

Make sure you read the rules first: http://www.scholaepalatinae.darkjedibrotherhood.com/reclamation/rules1.html

In other news, I have several house projects that I am looking for help with. Many of them are graphic intense, so if you are graphically inclined and wish to help the house out with these projects, please email me and let me know.

House Direction:

The immediate focus is on the Reclamation event, I want to see as much participation from Caliburnus as possible. House Caliburnus has a long and proud tradition of being the best. So get out there, take a look at the events, even if you don’t think you can do it, TRY. Participation counts and every thing you do will help not only yourself but your House as well.

House Plans:

There is going to be a very special treat for the members of House Caliburnus coming up next month, so stay tuned!

I also have a lot of house projects that I will be working on in the coming weeks.

Closing Thoughts:

Teamwork. It is so very easy to get caught up in our own individual needs and ambitions that we loose sight of those around us. However, it is true that more and greater things can be accomplished when people work together. One person does not build a city alone, nor can one person alone win a war. We are a House, but also we are part of a great Clan, and while yes, each of the Houses will hold a measure of friendly rivalry with one another, when it is all said and done, we are all part of one whole. Scholae Palatinae draws its greatest strength from the heart of its members, we are a family. This is what makes us better than all the rest. So take a moment during your striving for greatness and reflect on where you fit within this larger family. Get to know those around you, help each other where you can. We may be dark Jedi, but that doesn’t mean we need to be uncivil to one another. I know sometimes it is harder than others, I am guilty of that myself, but it is something I am working on reminding myself, and I feel it is important for everyone to remember. Despite personal differences, we’re all working for the same thing, to make CSP the greatest Clan in the Brotherhood.
