Aedile Report

2009/09/13, 10:00 PM, Aedile - House Galeres

Greetings and welcome to another Aedile Report!

NEWS

-First and foremost, I would like to welcome and announce the arrival of Braecen Kaeth as the new Arconan Proconsul! In his short time with us, he has already made a decisive impact on the clan leadership, and I am confident that we will see great things out of him in the days ahead, especially as we approach the Rite of Supremacy scheduled for January!

-There is a competition running within the ACC for anyone who likes to participate, as it is DB-wide. Not only would you get Clusters of Fire and Pendants of Blood for winning Quick Skirmishes within the ACC, but the overall most matches won will gather a third level Crescent for the top three who manages to win the most matches in the month. The competition is running from 9/7 to 10/7, so there is plenty of time yet to participate, and I would highly encourage you to do so!

COMPETITIONS

-First and foremost, there are the fiction and graphic competitions that I am running, both touching on the same theme: What fuels your power? Is it a cold rage, touching upon a memory of one of your enemies slaughtering your family? Or is it greed, coveting what you believe is rightfully yours? However you decide upon, I welcome your entries!

For the Graphics entry, I would like to see a picture of your character drawing upon the Dark Side, using the emotion or vice that you consider to be the key to your character's power.

For the Fiction entry, you can write anything from how you fell to the Dark Side, up to your future plans as the new master of the Dark Brotherhood. What you must focus on is what emotion or vice you use to fully immense yourself in the power of the Dark Side and the reason why you use that specific emotion/vice. There is a 1 page min. requirement, but no max length.

You can enter into both competitions, and send all entries to [Log in to view e-mail addresses]/, The awards are 3rd level Crescents for the top three places! Competition ends October 7th.

-JH Celahir Erinos is running a clan-wide Flash game competition, which is very easy to participate in! All you have to is play an easy flash game and get the highest score you can! Take a screenshot of your highest score and email it to Celahir at [Log in to view e-mail addresses]! The flash game can be played at http://megami.starcreator.com/nanaca-crash/

5th level Crescents for the top 3 places! Competition ends on the 27th.

-DJK Sanguinius Tsucyra (otherwise known as Sang) is in need of graphics to serve as Report Headers so that he can one-up himself above Legz, so if you have any graphic skills, I'll encourage you to participate! Email all entries to Sang at [Log in to view e-mail addresses]

3rd level Crescents to the top 3 places, and competition ends on the 19th.

MEDALS

Just a short list this week, due to me not wanting to cover the last few weeks.

First and foremost, the Grand Cross of the Dark Side was awarded to Krath Priestess Xathia for numerous activities ranging from making beautiful portraits of DB members' characters for not just members of our Clan, but for the other Clans as well, ranging over 20 images at last count. Combined with her mentoring of our new writers in general writing and more specifically, combat writing for the ACC, the amount of work that she has contributed to the Clan and the Dark Brotherhood makes her Grand Cross well earned. Congratulations once more!

Second, a Crescent with Sapphire Star was awarded to Obelisk Prelate Malidir Trepidus Erinos Arconae for placing 2nd place in Xander's Brotherhood Puzzle Master #2 competition. Congratulations!

PROMOTIONS

For passing several Shadow Academy courses and participating in the current Run-On, Arack Tavar has been promoted from Novice to Acolyte. Congratulations!

ARRIVALS/DEPARTURES

Only one new arrival to and no departures from Galeres this week. Please give a warm welcome to APP Patrick202!

CLAN RUN-ON

Be sure to post in the Run-On that we are currently running! It is a great way to have some character development happen, and we are still in the early stages of the story, so it should be easy to insert yourself into the story! This is a great way to help create and develop some more of our Clan's back story, and there are even some medals involved to boot for some of the greater RPers, so participate!
