<small>(Click the report header to experience an eargasm)</small>

That's right, I'm back. And firstly I'd like to say a massive congratulations and a huge well done! We did it. Victory. We moved the boundaries. We pushed and pushed and pushed. And look what it got us. I am proud. Proud of each and every one of you, proud of each and every submission, proud of Arcona's spirit and drive. Expectations were exceeded in the last round and we fell only just short. Well, didn't we half make up for it? Pat yourselves on the back, go and get messy. You've earned the downtime.

Now, this report. I'm going to talk about our recent win (obviously), Fleet Points, the upcoming Independence Games, a few internal intiatives, and I'll finish off with our awards/promotions report. Sound good? Cool. Let's hop to it.

The Dark Crusade

Rhelg is ours! And its all because of you. It was a sight to behold when the members of Arcona answered the call-to-arms. I saw members come out of the woodwork who had not been active in literally years; I saw some journeymen flirting with the boundaries of what we expect from long-serving members of Arcona (I even saw a few journeymen smash that boundary); and, best of all, I saw Arcona's team spirit come back to the fore.

We haven't seen mobilisation like this since the Tenth Great Jedi War. It was heart-warming to see Arcona unite once again. And look at the result! When we come together, when we all work for the benefit of the Clan, we see great things happen (yes, I do realise I sound like some Leninist preacher, but I think you get the picture).

It's at this point that I'd like to direct everyone's attention to Arcona's top performers in this Chapter. Firstly Socorra. She has quashed all expectation and secured two Gold Novae and a Silver Nova. Way to represent! Great work, Sockleberry Finn! Gaming was a similar story: Marick, Cethgus and Andrelious secured Gold, Silver and Bronze Novae respectively. Huge congratulations to those guys for getting all top three spots! Also, massive congratulations to Troutrooper for acquiring a Silver Nova in the the Rhelg fiction event, especially amongst the literary talent Taldryan has to offer! Great work, Trouty. I'd also like to thank all the members of the Sabley Dark-Dark Rainbow Crusaders run-on team for their efforts. Socorra, Tsainetomo, Marick, Invictus, Valhavoc and Montresor. All of you guys were fantastic in your efforts to secure Arcona another set of Silver Novae, especially Valhavoc and Monty, who are both relatively new to run-ons. These two took to it like ducks to water. Fantastic job you guys! And finally we have our upcoming star. As you will have seen by the Voice report below, Atyiru submitted a 50 page fiction for her entry to the fiction event in this Chapter of the Dark Crusade. This deserves a round of applause and some serious kudos from all you guys in the clan. This is truly phenomenal work. Great job, Abbey!

Whilst the guys above did exceptionally well, without the combined effort of everyone in the clan, we wouldn't have won this time round. I'd just like to say a short thanks to each and every single member who came out and did everything in their power to get entries submitted. You guys who hit my marker of 4/5 were phenomenal. Sincerely, thank you. Its because of you guys that we're currently sitting victorious. That goes double for the Journeymen who came out and gave their all: Kanis, Zuri, Riverche, Atyiru, Bron, K'tana, Nath, Anduriel, Dalk. All of you were phenomenal. Keep up the fantastic work!

Fleet Points

I figured I'd just let you guys know what's going on fleet point wise. Its your clan as much as it is the summit's, and you deserve to know what the points you've helped to earn will be spent on. Well, at present we're sitting on 1636 fleet points. That's the cumulative total from the last two Chapters of the Dark Crusade. My intention was to keep all of our points leading up to the next Great Jedi War. After it finishes, we should be in a position to buy in bulk some of the gear we've been needing desperately for so long. When that time comes, I'll get in contact with you guys and let you know what the options are and ask you to vote on your preferences.

So, in short, I'm saving until we've got enough to bulk-buy!

The Independence Games

Picture an arena. Crowds scream your name. Blood-stained sand flows between your bare toes. The smell of cauterised flesh clinging insistently to the hairs inside your nostrils. Sweat beads down your face. Panting. The sun beats down on your bare back. You pay no heed to allegiance. There is no room for kin. Clan or House, they have been killed. All of them. You are victorious. A champion of the arena.

The Independence Games. They are a particular favourite of many in the Brotherhood, and this April marks its tenth anniversary. It will undoutedly be the most exciting and difficult yet. The IGs are a chance for people to go beyond their loyalties to their unit. It gives people the opportunity to show what they can do as an individual. Titles can be won, prizes are plentiful and that's not considering the prestige that goes along with it (<small>no, not e-peen prestige</small>). All of this is for individual members. Yes, there is an element of unit-allegiance; Clouses will benefit from their members placing highly, and team elements will be part of the whole thing, but it is not fundamentally premised on Clouse allegiance.

There will be a great many competitions and events being run by a number of different members of the Brotherhood. I can almost guarantee that there will be an event for everyone. And if you want to challenge me on that, go and run one yourself! If any of you have a good idea for a competition that you would like to run Brotherhood-wide, now's your chance. Send me an email, or grab me on IRC and I'll help you out with submitting what is called a 'Wildcard Slot Entry'. These events are run by members of the Brotherhood and give people the opportunity to share their ideas, and enjoy some of the responsibilities that they wouldn't otherwise experience until leadership. I'd greatly encourage coming forward and showing an interest, especially you journeymen who need to run competitions for your promotion requirements!

So, get ready and gear up. The IGs will be a well-deserved and much-needed outlet/break from the Dark Crusade for you guys. Go and enjoy them for what they are - a celebration of personal achievement.

Miscellany

One thing I've been noticing more and more is a disparity between the houses. One will surge forward, then the other will catch up and overtake, whilst the first drops back off. Whilst we expect this to happen to a certain degree, things have been getting a little hectic over the past couple of months. To counteract this, I've decided to create a House Transfer Request Form. This form will enable us to monitor/move individuals between houses who may feel they are unwilling to approach individuals about such a move in the first place. All responses to the form will be strictly confidential (Myself and Marick will be the only ones who are able to see the responses) and it will enable us to better action any preferred transfers. You can find the link to the form here: Clan Arcona House Transfer Request Form.

That said, I do have to stress that there is no divide between Arcona's Houses. Qel-Droma and Galeres are part of something greater - Arcona. In that respect, I have never seen, nor will I ever see, both these houses as separate entities. Socorra is as much a Quaestor of Galeres as Sanguinius, and vice verse. Our Quaestors are Quaestors of Arcona. Our Aediles - Valhavoc and Cethgus - are the same. Let's not see this as something to divide our talents. The reason we've implemented this form is because of disparity. If we can even out the houses so we enable our two Quaestor-Aedile teams to manage more similar membership numbers, we'll be golden. Of course, this forms may also work to further increase that gap. In such a circumstance, I'll step in and have a word with you guys and see where our shortcomings are and what we can do.

You may see this as a redundant venture, but I think its worthwhile. We were very close to opening up a third battleteam in one of the Houses a few days ago. This is a milestone achievement. I want to make sure we're running efficiently enough to warrant it, though. Hence, the form.

Also, whilst we're on the topic of forms and such like, don't forget about the Arcona Suggestion Box. It is a great way to give your input into the Clan anonymously, whether compliment, complaint or new initiative/idea. We've had some interesting responses so far, and I've gone about implementing some of the more serious ones! If you guys want some input in the administration/running of the Clan, you have the opportunity with the Suggestion Box. Keep them coming in!

You can find the Arcona Suggestion Box at the following link: Arcona Suggestion Box

Finally, I've been asked to say that applications for Battle Team Leader of Spectre Cell end tomorrow (Saturday 23rd March) at 159 EST. Get your applications in ladies and gents!

Awards

I would like to just recognise a few individuals before I jump straight into the bulk Awards/Promotions box.

Firstly I'd like to say a big congratulations to Marick and Cethgus for reaching the esteemed rank of Obelisk Primarch! Great job, guys. Very well earned.

Secondly, I'd like to congratulate Valhavoc and Montresor for their battlefield promotions to Equite 2 and Equite 1 respectively. Massive kudos, you guys. Extremely well earned. You deserved it!

Finally, I'd like to say a huge congratulations to Atyiru on her double battlefield promotion to Guardian! Your 50 page fiction was definitely worth that much, at least! And I'd like to congratulate Bron Vesh and Nath Voth for their battlefield promotions to Guardian and Jedi Huntress respectively! Huge kudos to these guys. They're a demonstration of what activity as a Journeyman can accomplish!

Now, onto the bulk:

Awards

Valhavoc got awarded a Grand Cross of the Dark Side on 3/21/2013 11:10:20 PM (<small>_Valhavoc has been a member of the staff for a few months now and has been one of our biggest members to play Diablo 3 with many of our members. Himself and Atra went over the CF Table and revised it in such a way that it is more balanced out across the board. He has been there for meetings where we discussed several decisions revolving around the Rites of Combat, and has been an officer to the ToR Guild, inviting and recruiting members, as well as creating ToR and Diablo competitions each month. Recently he's written the Path of Exile rules, as well as suggested the CF table for it. As a token of my thanks, I'd like to award Valhavoc a Grand Cross of the Dark Side.

OPM Fremoc Pepoi Fist of the Brotherhood

In the quest for fairness and maintaining a level playing field within the Dark Brotherhood's multiplayer community, there must be a person who, while improving the system, must look at all sides of the issue, both good and bad, and figure out a compromise. This task, so multifaceted and fraught with difficulties, is not one for the light of hard. Luckily, Valhavoc is not light of heart.

he has spent countless hours in the pursuit of fairness in the form of the Clusters of Fire Table Revisions. Apart from the massive amount of mathematical data involved, he had to contend with, and consider, a myriad of different opinions and suggestions. At the end of the day, the product he has produced is excellent and fully compatible with our games.

Aside from the CF tables, his work with Diablo 3 and lately Path of Exile, has been exemplary, and we hope he continues to provide the FIST staff with this level of excellent. Congratulations and thank you!

Nikola Valtiere got awarded a Steel Cross on 2/27/2013 6:01:58 AM (<small>_Nikola Valtiere stepped into the position of Battle Team Leader for Void Squadron only days before the first round of the Dark Crusade kicked off. Despite having only a short amount of time to prepare and still learning the dynamics of being on the Arcona Summit he rose to each challenge he was met with in the coming weeks. Nikola set the example for his Battle Team, participating in four of the six events which were run during this phase. He submitted entries for the Ancient Stones Fiction, The Hunt Graphics Competition, completed the Cryptology SA Course with a score of 95, and assisted the Wiki Team Arcownage in securing second place.

However, not content to only participate during the Dark Crusade Events Nikola also completed both the Leadership Studies and Leadership Fundamentals Shadow Academy Courses to continue developing his skills and abilities as a Battle Team Leader. It is important to mention that Nikola completed these courses while at the same time competing in the Dark Crusade! In addition to this self development he recently participated in The Dark Crusade Prologue Run On, earning two Clusters of Ice.

Nikola has set the standard for how to be an exemplary Journeyman member. Showing not only the drive to see his Clan succeed in a competitive Brotherhood wide competition, but also the self awareness and time management to seek out additional knowledge from the Shadow Academy to ensure success as an individual. For all of the versatility and promise of great things to come, I am proud to award Nikola Valtiere for a Steel Cross.

Congratulations, Jedi Hunter Valtiere!

Valhavoc Aedile, House Qel-Droma _</small>)

Nadrin Erinos Arconae got awarded a Anteian Cross on 2/27/2013 6:01:58 AM (<small>_During Phase I of the Dark Crusade, Nadrin participated in five of the six events held on Krayiss II, Completing both ficitons, the graphics, shadow academy course and was part of the Arcownage wiki team, providing both content and proofing the work of other team members. He placed second as part of Team Arcownage, earning a Silver Nova in the process. His activity during the Dark Crusdae has been exemplary so far, and is a beacon of what a good member of the Brotherhood should be.

In light of his activity and achievements, I am honoured to award Nadrin Erinos Arconae an Anteian Cross

Nikola Valtiere, Void Commander Qel-Droma of Arcona

--

Nadrin was one of the most active members of House Qel-Droma during this first round of the Dark Crusade. I fully support Valtiere's recommendation, and am proud to congratulate Nadrin on a job well done. Nicely done Nadrin, we're looking forward to seeing a repeat performance in the March round!

Valhavoc Aedile, House Qel-Droma_</small>)

Valhavoc got awarded a Grand Cross of the Dark Side on 2/27/2013 6:01:57 AM (<small>_Submitted on behalf of Socorra Erinos:

To say that Valhavoc has been "busy" is an overwhelming understatement. This man is never content unless he's managing near or full 100% participation in anything, and heaven forbid he has to go on RL vacation for a couple of days. He was a great boon to Galeres and now Qel-Droma, and frankly, in the short time he's been my Aedile, I'm completely floored by what he's managed to do already, along with the great maturity and professionalism he has brought with him.

Valhavoc established a brand new Battleteam from scratch in Galeres and proceeded to build it up with diligence and care, until it eventually became the top BT we had in Arcona with fantastically active members with a desire to improve and win in events such as Beyond the Horizon where it did just that for several months. Then Qel-Droma had an Aedile vacancy and he stepped up and again moved into a brand new position for him, and was literally thrown right into the Crusade vendetta. And I am very happy to report that he took to it like a fish to water.

Val threw out numerous emails to our members to introduce himself to the House and motivate everyone for the oncoming Vendetta, finished out his own BT's report so that he could move and let the new BTL come in well-organized, and helped to write a report for the HQD Summit, as well as came up with a rewards matrix to help our Summiters reward people, and became a wonderful sounding board for myself as well as bringing in some great wisdom born from real life experience. And then, on top of all of this, Valhavoc participated in 5 events during the vendetta: Stones fiction, Graphics, Gaming, SA Encryption, and of course, the Wiki competition, in which he assisted his team in winning fourth place, and helping Arcona win 2nd place overall during the Crusade.

As if that wasn't enough, he has also recently obtained a Scroll of Foundation for mentoring Montresor to DJK. Monty has gone on to wildly participate in the Vendetta, no doubt partially due to Val's diligence in tutoring him. On top of his merits, Val was also an extremely active participant during Beyond the Horizons Arcona/Plagueis Feud, and obtained an Amethyst x6 for 3rd place in BTH RO, 1st place Acro, 3rd place fiction, 1st place wk2 BTH acro, 2nd place BTH battleplan, and 2nd place for wk2 BTH fiction, plus a Legion of the Scholar for 1st place in BTH Trivia as well as a Diamond Star for 1st place overall in BTH. Aside from BTH he has also won a Sapphire x1 for 1st place in the Defeat Diablo competition, Emerald x1 for 3rd place in "The Great Error Hunt", Cluster of Ice x5 for his participation in the Avenger II run-on and Val has also earned himself an incredible 722 Clusters of Fire for TOR/Diablo participation as well as 3 Pendants of Blood.

So again, "busy" is an overwhelming understatement. Valhavoc has been an amazing boon to Arcona through his hard work and dedication and I have nothing but great faith in what he will accomplish as Aedile. It is my pleasure to request this GC for him to show our appreciation.

~Socorra Erinos, Quaestor of House Qel-Droma


I would just like to take a moment to add a few sentences to Sock's comments.

Valhavoc has been a boon to Arcona since he joined. His work on the gaming front, his activity within the Clan, his ability to lead even before being awarded a leadership position all speak of his wide array of talents and abilities. I feel honoured, if not graced, to finally have him as a colleague within the Arconan summit.

His work speaks for itself, as Socorra has demonstrated, he does everything off his own back, in his own time, all for the benefit of Arcona and its members. This, above all else, defines his role as a member of this Brotherhood. Without people like him, this would be a dull, dreary place.

Well done, Val. You've earned it.

~Wuntila Arconae. Consul. Clan Arcona. _</small>)

Montresor got awarded 36 times a Cluster of Fire on 2/25/2013 10:55:34 PM (<small>Defeating 21x Elite/Rare bosses in Diablo 3, Inferno, Monster Power 6 on 22Feb2013.</small>)

Etah d'Tana got awarded a Dark Cross on 2/24/2013 8:40:21 AM (<small>_Iâ??m requesting this Dark Cross for one of my two amazing BTLs, Etah. Etah pulled through rl difficulties involving college/universityâ?¦whatever you silly Americans call it, to get in entries to the Dark Crusadeâ??s first two weeks of events. He also motivated his team, Spectre Cell to send in entries. Etahâ??s hard work helped net his wiki team 4th place in the Krayiss II wiki event. He also submitted entries to The Hunt and the SA Encryption course. Etah is one of my stalwart Galereans who I can rely on to work hard when I need them most. Thank you for all your hard work, Etah. Keep it up mate.

Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar

I am honoured to be recommending Etah for this Dark Cross for his hard work and dedication as Battleteam Leader of Spectre Cell, as well as his activity during Dark Crusade Phase I. He has been a constant pillar of leadership and activity inside of House Galeres as one of the two Battleteam Leaders.

Though the above recc speaks about his activity inside of Dark Crusade, I will be speaking about his time as a leader of the Battleteam and what he does above and beyond the call of duty. During Dark Crusade, Etah continued to lead his team from the front lines; he was hard working and active, even sending out a motivational email to get members of his team working once again. He is constantly active and participating, and during his time he is expanding the fictional development of his team. Getting members of his team involved in creating and developing the future of Spectre Cell, making them work as one unit.

For all of the reasons above and his dedication to his team, and its members I feel he is deserving of this reward. Keep up the hard work for us Etah you are doing a brilliant job man.

Cethgus Tiberius Entar Arconae

Aedile of House Galeres_</small>)

Nath Voth got awarded a Anteian Cross on 2/23/2013 12:52:10 PM (<small>_Iâ??m requesting this Anteian Cross for the second of my two amazing BTLs. Nath has only just recently joined the Galeres Summit and is still learning the ropes. Yet she has constantly pushed forward and improved immensely, justifying my choice in giving her the opportunity to become BTL of Dark Forge. Her BT had a fantastic showing during the first part of the Dark Crusade and she also participated in three events. She got entries In for The Hunt, the SAâ??s Encryption course and she assisted her wiki team in achieving 2nd place in the Krayiss II wiki event. Her hard work and perseverance contributed to Arconaâ??s placing and the fantastic showing from Galeres. Congrats, Nath.

Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar

I am honoured to be recommending Nath Voth for this Anteian Cross, her hard work during Dark Crusades was inspiring enough. Though I will speak about what she has been doing in her time as Battle Team Leader of Dark Forge.

Nath Voth is a newer member of the Clan, but is defiantly as determined as older ones; during Dark Crusade Phase I the position of BTL became open of Dark Forge. Instantly we put Nath into the position and she took to it like wild fire. She was determined to get her team active and motivated, instantly talking to them on IRC, Email and any other form she could. Bringing in newer members into the team and leading it from the front during this time.

For someone with no experience or any kind of knowledge of leadership, she stepped up to the plate, pushing herself harder to improve relations within the team, and getting as many entries in as possible from members inside of her team. For all of these reasons and her activity inside of Dark Forge I believe she is deserving of this medal. Thank you for stepping up to the challenge Nath and keep the hard work up in the future.

Cethgus Tiberius Entar Arconae

Aedile of House Galeres._</small>)

Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar

I am requesting a Dark Cross for Ood.

Team Arcownage probably wouldn't have gotten 2nd place without you. Thanks, Irfan <3.

Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar _</small>)

Vynn Salm got awarded a Dark Cross on 2/23/2013 12:52:10 PM (<small>_Iâ??m requesting this Dark Cross for Vynn for the hard work he put in for the Shadow Clan during the first two weeks of the Dark Crusade.

So Iâ??m adding my two cents in to this rec. TT kicked arse for Galeres and Arcona during the first two weeks of the Dark Crusade. His fiction was fantastic and made me laugh a fair few times and made me want more. His work also secured his wiki team 4th place alongside the other events he submitted to. Iâ??m sad that I can only give you an Anteian Cross, Troutrooper, however, congrats, Troutrooper.

Inarya got awarded a Anteian Cross on 2/23/2013 12:52:09 PM (<small>_Iâ??m requesting this Anteian Cross for Inarya for the hard work she put in during the first two weeks of the Dark Crusade. Inarya is yet another of my stalwart Galereans who I can always rely on when the going gets tough to get involved and show why Galeres is such an amazing House. She participated in four events, getting entries in for The Hunt, Ancient Stones, the SA Encryption course and she helped her wiki team achieve 2nd place in the Krayiss II wiki event by creating custom images for the page. Her work was an integral part of the placing and her hard work contributed to Arconaâ??s placing and the fantastic showing from Galeres. Congrats, Inarya.

Iâ??m requesting this Anteian Cross for Inarya, for the hard work she has put in to the Crusade. She has completed four events: The Hunt, Ancient Stones, Encryption and Wiki in which she received 2nd place. She has worked hard in assisting Arcona into the position it received. Congratulations Inarya.

Wes Biriuk got awarded a Anteian Cross on 2/23/2013 12:52:09 PM (<small>_Iâ??m requesting this Anteian Cross for Wes for the hard work he put in for the Shadow Clan during the first two weeks of the Dark Crusade. Wes is one of my stalwart members and he worked his arse off to get entries in to four competitions. Wes competed in The Hunt, the SA Encryption course, gaming and he helped Team Arcownage secure second place in the Krayiss II wiki competiton. His hard work contributed to Arconaâ??s placing and the fantastic showing from Galeres. Congrats, Wes.

Wes participated in 4 events, which was higher than the battle team average of 2.86 and was much higher than the Clan Average of 1.84. His high level of activity sets a positive example for lower journeymen and us dusty old Equites. For all of these reasons Wes deserves an Anteian Cross for his efforts.

Legorii Kryotek Entar got awarded a Anteian Cross on 2/23/2013 12:52:08 PM (<small>_So yeah, Iâ??m requesting an Anteian Cross for this badass dude. Legorii returned to save our bacon yet again in Galeres by submitting to five events during the first two weeks of the Dark Crusade. Legz helped his wiki team achieve 4th place in the Krayiss II wiki event and contributed to Arconaâ??s placing and the fantastic showing from Galeres. Legorii is one of those kickass Equites that I rely on heavily to show how amazing our House is and he never fails to disappoint, which is why Iâ??m so madly in love with him or somethingâ?¦.Anyway, congrats, Legz <3

Legorii managed to participate in 5 events, over twice as much as the battle team average of 2.86 and two and a half times higher than the Clan Average of 1.84. He is doing a great job as a mid-level Equite of setting an example for all the lower journeyman and Equites in the Clan Arcona and for all of those reasons he deserves a Anteian Cross.

Putra got awarded a Anteian Cross on 2/23/2013 8:09:42 AM (<small>_Iâ??m requesting this Anteian Cross for Putra for the hard work he put in for the Shadow Clan during the first two weeks of the Dark Crusade. Putra struggled with rl issues involving his computer but still managed to create custom images for Arconaâ??s Team Arcownage wiki entry for Krayiss II which came in second. His hard work contributed to Arconaâ??s placing and the fantastic showing from Galeres. Congrats, Putra.

Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar

Putra was a key member of the Arcownage wiki team which placed second. His participation in one event added to the Clan total which fell just below the highest average in the competition. For all of these reasons Obelisk Prelate Putra deserves an Antei Cross.

Closing Thoughts

To conclude, I just want to say thank you for being awesome. You guys have really demonstrated what it means to be Arconan over the past couple of Chapters. You've pushed yourselves to the limit, and for that myself, along with the rest of the summit, are eternally grateful. Go get messy and wind down. By god you've earned that much!

TL;DR

  • We won Rhelg!

  • General Arconan ass-kickery;

  • Fleet points being saved;

  • Independence Games around the corner (contact Wuntila if you're interested in running an event);

  • House Transfer Request Form can be found HERE;

  • Don't forget to use the Arcona Suggestion Box;

  • Spectre Cell BTL applications close Saturday 23rd March @ 1159 EST;

  • Loads of battlefield promotions and general badassery.

In Darkness,

~Wuntila Arconae, Consul of Clan Arcona.
