Greetings, fellow Palatinaeans.

Being in a clan within the Brotherhood is the best way to get the full experience of the club. It also has some cool perks to go along with it. As I'm sure most of you know, one benefit is special titles that each clan can bestow upon its members, which they can add to their names and display on their dossier for all to see. For those of us in the Imperial Clan, we appropriately offer the Legacy of Palpatine.

Rewind to 2008 and you'll find a younger, wide-eyed Reiden just joining the Brotherhood and Scholae Palatinae. I'd never been in a club like this before and it seemed so cool. It was made even better when I learned about clan titles. I never imagined that I'd one day bear the Palpatine name, although I did hope against hope that it might be possible. Well, here I am today, and I can still hardly believe it. I like to think that I stand as a testament to the fact that if any of you put in the time and work hard, you can accomplish the same thing one day.

Today I am writing this to bring you some truly great news. As a member of the Palpatines I'd like to proudly announce that Rasilvenaira StormRaven, Ric Hunter, and Xantros have been named as the newest bearers of the Legacy of Palpatine!

These three members have been part of Scholae Palatinae for many years (I checked and it comes out to about 36 years combined) and have held positions ranging from the discontinued Battleteam Sergeant up to Quaestor. Over the years, they have constantly helped to further Scholae Palatinae and make it the great place that it is, and I’d just like to say thank you for all that you’ve done for us. We, the Palpatines, now reward them for all of their hard work and dedication to the clan. To that end, with help from Shadow and Dante, I have put together a little fiction to celebrate the occasion, which you can find here. I hope you all enjoy it.

Congratulations you guys, and welcome to the family! Drinks are on you!
-- Reiden Palpatine Karr
