General DB/CNS/HLK news:

Our QUA SBM Scithe is on leave while getting his pc repaired/updated, until he returns i shall be in charge of HLK.

Activity seems to be on the rise and i have been filled with the spirit of hope, lets ressurect this House from the shadows of death!

to qoute SBM Bob: "Proconsul Arion is missing. If anyone has seen him contact your nearest Consul".

DGM Mairin released the results for her X-Mas Bonanza Comp.

Also she mentioned in her report that: "A reminder on the Leadership Studies Course. The deadline on this has now PASSED for current leaders. That means you cannot be positionally promoted until such time as you have passed it; prospective leaders will need to take the course and pass it before they will be allowed to take up leadership positions. This is effective for Battleteam Leaders and upwards. Rollmasters and webmasters probably do not need to take it, but would be advised to do so."

Send all your passed IWATS e-mails or TC pin# to OBL Mage ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]) in order to get them approved on your DB id line. Go ahead and assault his inbox with those;p. (SBM Malik, me & DJK Runic Soul already have in HLK);p.

Notice from the GM: (from SWL Goatham)

ALL people not assigned to a Battleteam will be automatically transfered to the Rogues next week, so this means if you're not in one but want to stay in the Clan...JOIN ONE NOW.

New Envoys: (more new from our CON Goat)

Envoy for Naga Sadow Krath Pontifex Trevarus Caerick

     Envoy for Ludo Kressh Sith Warrior Malik  

     Envoy for Marka Ragnos Ghost Angel  

     Envoy for Primus Goluud None  

In light of the limited applications that I recieved I have not been able to appoint an Envoy for Primus Goluud, for which I am quite disappointed. Primus Goluud is our smallest House, so is the House most in need of an Envoy, as it rapidly needs to attain some new members to increase its numbers.

In light of this, I will, for the time being, ask that the team of Envoys handle the task of recruitment for Primus Goluud among themselves as is, if this means the Clan Envoy handling the task, all three doing a little bit of the job or something I do not mind, I shall leave it up to the Envoys to decide their course of action for the moment.

I shall also consider having our Envoy for Primus Goluud not a member of Primus Goluud, for that would not be too much of an issue, and there are those who used to have Obelisk clones or whom used to be Obelisk who could handle the job adequately - and regardless of this, the tests Obelisk Apprentices take are no different to those of Sith or Krath Apprentices, so the task would not require any special Obeliskian skills.

In conclusion, my congratulations to the new Envoys, I look forward to seeing some new members as a result of your efforts, and I shall be briefing you on some further Envoy related integration with the Master Student Program when that comes into effect later this week.

Master/Student Program:

SWL Goatham sent out detailed information on this over the e-groups- the bottom line is if your DJK & above and not an AED or QUA you are expected to help your house & clan by taking on an apprentice.

HLK Information: (as passed to me from our CON, SWL Goatham)

HEADQUARTERS OF CLAN NAGA SADOW

Planet Ullyr - Ludo Kressh Home Base ‘Kressh Fortress’

The third planet in the Phare system, Ullyr, is perhaps the most hospitable of all the planets, at least from a geographical viewpoint. Ullyr is strongly suited to support life, 45% of the surface is covered in water, the atmosphere is breathable, the climate is temperate (ranging from -5° to 25°C), gravity is standard at 1.2 and one day has a fairly standard rotational cycle of 29 hours. The planets downfall is its terrain, mostly uneven and covered in trees the planet is not yet suited for mass populations, and the resources are far from expendable, given time though Ullyr has the potential to become a formidable fortress world, being one of the largest of the planets in the Phare system at 9,000km in diameter. However as an Imperial world Ullyr is not yet very industrialized, the government is not truly Imperial, mostly being a feudal system between the native wookie tribesmen, also the Starport is only a standard installation and does not provide the defensive abilities of the Imperial Starports such as those circling Sif and Loki.

Regardless of this, the low profile this provides the planet with makes it a suitable choice for the home of one of the Clans houses, more specifically those of Ludo Kressh, the Sith of the Clan. Being the space faring troops of the Clan the lack of a decent Starport also proves little of a problem, perhaps being more of a benefit as it hides their activities more. The fortress installation of Ludo Kressh is perhaps the most expensive of any of the Clan’s installations, along with being the newest. Buried below the surface of a volcanic lake the installation is a large 100m tall by 60m wide fortress, the walls formed of ten foot of impenetrable durasteel, the surrounding mountain range covered in an array of shields, turbolasers, ion cannons, warhead launchers, sensors, and jamming systems. Protruding even further than the 100m height of the underwater base are three additional towers that head up another 50m from the first level of the installation, providing enhanced sensor and communication systems, additional hanger space and a meeting hall that is seated on top of the lake, open to the air. It is the added defense of the Sith pilots which also makes Ullyr’s moon, Baldyr, the perfect location for one of the Clan’s additional bases, its private prison complex.

Platform Obsidian

Obsidian is the secondary installation for Ludo Kressh, an orbital space-station that provides both extended communication systems for the entire Clan, and an auxiliary base at which the Clan’s ships can be stored, maintained and repaired. The base is staffed by members of Ludo Kressh, though some of the Saraii devotees aid in the daily upkeep of the base. The platform is kept in orbit of the planets moon, Baldyr, thus providing it with additional security by limiting its direct connection to Ullyr, and hence its connection to the pilots of Naga Sadow. Though primarily a Sith installation, Obsidian provides support for the entire Clan, usually acting as the hanger bay for many of the Clan’s shuttles and other vehicles. Obsidian’s limited construction bays and manufacturing apparatus also provides it with the ability to upgrade and enhance the Clan’s ships.
