Krath Tetrarch Report

Greetings!

Welcome to another report of Caliburnus! It has been really a while since the last report and there is much to be announced. So, there is no more time to lose.

News

DJB News

There is a Vendetta coming in late September, if everything goes fine. It is going to be a really big event, called Horizons. There is a House-wide competition, which shall help you get a warm up before the Horizons starts.

It has been mentioned in the GM report ( go read it ) that there is the Great Jedi War XI scheduled for the next year, though there have been no details revealed yet.

SA courses audit is still undergoing. All courses shall be reviewed in order to make them better and more up-to-date.

House News

In recent weeks, we have seen the Feud, which involved our House, House Plagueis and Clan Naga Sadow. We have placed 2nd and this has been a great success, as there have been many participants, including members of our Battleteam! Congrats to all people, who have placed in the Feud! Great job!

Ther has been a survey carried out in recent weeks. Its goal was to learn our opinions and thoughts on the situation of the House. Currently, the results of the survey are being discussed. Thank all of you, who has expressed your opinion.

Archangel has earned prestigious Dark Side Degree known as Dark Sage Writing, which is the highest Dark Maven awarded in the field of writing. The course is organised once a year and it really demands excellent writing skills, what is proven by the fact that Archangel is the only one participant of this year edition, who has earned this Dark Side Degree! Congrats!

II Batteteam Leader Office

I would like to warmly welcome Evant and Kazumi in ranks of Caliburnus. I hope that you will enjoy your stay in the Battleteam!

With certain sadness, I must announce that Ood has decided to get transfered from our House to House Galeres in Clan Arcona. I wish him good luck and I hope that he will make his dreams come true there.

On the 12th of September, it will have been 20 month since my appointment to the position of Caliburnus Battleteam Leader. So it is the high time to summarize my term in Caliburnus, particularly in the situation that I am leaving the Dark Jedi Brotherhood in late September. More details to be found in the section of the Final Thoughts, so that you do not need to skip much to see other, more interesting parts of the report 

V Final Thoughts

As mentioned before, I have been the Battleteam Leader of Caliburnus for almost twenty months so far. It has been really great time for me and I may only hope that you have enjoyed my term, as much as I did.

I am glad to admit that you, members of Caliburnus, have turned out to be great companions and extremely active members of the House. During my term, current and former members of Caliburnus have earned: •75 Crescents ( 4 Cr-Q, 22 Cr-T, 26 Cr-E, 9 Cr-S, 7 Cr-A, 2 Cr-R, 3 Cr-D ) •80 Seals of Decimations ( for participation in the GJW X ) •60 Clusters of Fire •26 Clusters of Ice •16 Novae ( 9 Bronze Novae, 6 Silver Novae, 1 Gold Nova ) •6 Dark Crosses •3 Seals of Loyalty •2 Steel Crosses •3 Legions of the Scholar •1 Anteian Cross •1 Scroll of Foundation

It sums up to 271 competition awards, merit awards and other awards. It gives an average amount of over 13 awards of various types and degrees per month! Truly an awesome result!

Apart from the awards, we have seen our comrades from Caliburnus earning eight ( yes - 8! ) promotions, including one that elevated Valkas Tamalar to the rank of Sith Warlord! Great job Ladies and Gentlemen!

In addition to promotions and awards, we have earned six Dark Mavens and one Dark Savant, which are the Dark Side Degrees!

Caliburnus has seen certain changes throughout the time of my reign. I remember that I have tried to introduce various ideas, like regular IRC meetings of our Battleteam. Some of them have turned out to fail, some others have been accepted. Such good idea was to turn Caliburnus into the Battleteam devoted to the development of its members’ characters. I have successfully run several competitions, which were focused on giving an opportunity to expand one’s Wiki character articles and character background stories. Even now, despite the fact that our Battleteam has been tasked with creation the environment for general activity, we still keep positive attitude towards character development.

I am also glad that while Nightstalkers and Dorimad Sol were closed, our Battleteam remained active and we continue to thrive, currently having nine members. I believe that it is a really good sign for the future, as there is much potential in each of us and this potential grows even more, if we join our efforts in the group work.

Still, there is yet much to be done. Definitely, the Wiki articles about Caliburnus require updating and general improvement. We might also use a bit more of development of the background details of our Battleteam, like covert missions assinged to Caliburnus. However, these are probably the challenges awaiting for the next Battleteam Leader of Caliburnus.

Once again, I wish to stress that it has been a really great pleasure to serve with you in our Battleteam. I hope that I will be able to return one day and to see you still here, enjoying your time in Caliburnus, House ( Clan? ) Scholae Palatinae and whole Dark Jedi Brotherhood.

Signed, KP Xantros BTL of Caliburnus
