A Clan Odan-Urr and Clan Arcona feud

The Second Week has Begun

Week One is over. and Week Two begins, just like the title says! What happens next…?

The O’reenians have launched a second assault against the combined forces of the Clan of Light and the Shadow Clan. Even while the battle for Sanctuary wages on in the skies above New Tython, the war has spread on all fronts. In an effort to divide the Clans’ attention, the O’reenians have launched shuttles onto the surface and threaten to complete their mission to reclaim Fireteam Echo. Suffering casualties and losses, Clan Arcona has launched an operation with the aid of Clan Odan-Urr to recover their escape pods, before those stranded crewmembers are hunted down by O’reenian forces.

In Case You Missed It...

It was the deep breath before plunging into the unknown. The glinting sparkle of light dappling on cold water before diving into the deep silence beneath. The heartbeat before a heart stopped.

Arranged in formation against the backdrop of space zipping by at hyperspeeds, the Arcona Expeditionary Force was a magnificent sight to behold. Utilizing the standard screen formation, each ship was positioned for maximum firepower on arrival, neglecting defensive strategies. It was clear that the battle was intended to end as fast as it would begin.

It was to be a massacre...

Event Competitions

The tides are changing. Not only in the hearts and minds of the Brotherhood's individual clans, but in the Brotherhood as a whole. One can only guess at what effects the ripples will cause, what direction the currents will pull us all, and whether or not we will drown or rise to new heights…

On a smaller scale, however, wages a different war. While both Clan Odan-Urr and Clan Arcona battle unrest from within in the changing world around them, they are called together in the unlikeliest of alliances as the Clan of Light goes to the Shadow Clan for aid. But when an enemy appears that is greater than either of them can face alone, the two Clans must make a choice: unite despite their multitude of differences, or face certain death.

With so much at stake, can they succeed? Or is such a strange collaboration doomed to fail?

In the interest of helping with team events, we released a signups form that ran for the first week of the event. Note that the window for placement in these team events is now closed, meaning that members who sign up from now on will be ineligible for placement in team events, but can always join or form a team late and participate (this will still earn you and your Clan some points, and it's fun).

As listed in the individual competition details, the following restrictions remain in place (Note that a group will not be disqualified for placement if team members fail to meet the minimum post requirements; instead that member will be disqualified from placement in the competition):

• Teams or pairs must consist of at least one member from each Clan, so long as numbers allow (some teams are mixed)
• For the RO, teams must have a minimum of five members, but no maximum
• For the BP, teams must have two to six members
• For the (week 2) co-op fiction, pairs will be of two

Again, you can access the form here. Please remember to sign up if you intend to participate in team events!

FIND YOUR TEAM HERE, YES HERE, IN ALL CAPS, THANK YOU.

Note for the Co-op Fiction and Run-On:

• For the Fiction, simply create a new thread under the Fiction category of the Discourse Forums and label it [Tides of Change] Team #, filling in your team number appropriately.
• For the Run-On, create a new thread under the Run-On category of the Discourse Forums in the same fashion, labeling it [Tides of Change] Team #, filling in your team number appropriately.
• You may put an optional team name after your team number if you wish.
• The first/”intro” post to your thread should be used to list your team members and their dossier pins. You may also use this post to reference the competition prompt.

Want to keep track of everything, but afraid this newspost or an email will get buried? Just use this wiki hub to keep track of simple event details and competitions. It will be updated as the event progresses!

Letter from the Consuls

Greetings, lovely members of Clans Arcona and Odan-Urr!

The second week has launched and with it, the second round of competitions. While there hasn’t been a fictional update for the week, we encourage all of our members to write their own stories, and collaborate with their team members to make this event something truly extraordinary. While the signups for placement in group events is closed, we would still encourage those who haven’t to sign up for a group, so that our Clans might gain some awesome participation points!

All as one to victory!

Signed and sealed,

A’lora Kituri
