CNS Rollmaster Report #6: And Rising With The Heat

2017/03/27, 1:18 AM, Rollmaster - Clan Naga Sadow

header

A hearty but chilly spring greetings to you all and welcome to yet another installment of the Clan Naga Sadow Rollmaster's Report. As you are doubtlessly aware, we are almost a third into the wonderful New Ties cooperative event with Clan Tarentum, but things churn on in the background despite the joint awesomeness. Our Clan continues to make their Rollmaster proud, and members continue to impress me with their efforts across a plethora of fields. As the weather gets prettier out, I am sure that we will all be out enjoying the warmer temperatures, but I hope that you will remember to come back and enjoy your time with all the rest of your wonderful Clan-folk. Without any further ado, let us get into the meat and potatoes of this report so that we can all get back to showing our awesome potential in New Ties!

News and Happenings Across the Brotherhood

  • The Fist has released a new report detailing a new platform, new magistrates, and highlighting gaming opportunities.
  • The FIST's Praetor has also released a report highlighting some games and related changes I hope you have already checked out.
  • Sang announced the start of New Ties. (Are you sensing a pattern here?)
  • Shar Dakhan's Battle Team Leader released a report for your consumption.
  • Before I forget Drac also received a Sapphire Blade for his service as the FIST
  • Darkhawk has released a report for the Nigth Hawks over in House Marka Ragnos.
  • Meanwhile the Aedile of Marka Ragnos has also reported about goings-on in HMR
  • How has provided us with another report, this one dealing with recommendations, competition grading and also highlighted some awards some of our fellow Sadowans earned. Go read it!
  • Oh, very much worth mentioning is that Heroes of the Storm is also now officially a supported platform for Dark Brotherhood gaming. Get out there, and crank our matches like the mad people I know you all are. Take full advantage of this new platform to show the awesomeness that are our Sadowans!
  • Finally, a "brief" digest of Star Wars-y goodness has been released (spoiler warning) of content from our galaxy far, far away that I highly suggest you go and check out.

News Closer to Home

That isn’t to say that Clan Naga Sadow has been completely quiet either, though. These are in no particular order, as my email is a bit of a jumble, but here we go!

This is just a small screenshot of things to occur on the Naga Sadow scene. If you like this section, see I missed something (it is always possible) or would like to see something else here either instead or in addition, feel free to tell us so in the comments below. This section is nice in that it allows me to highlight more than my primary charge of Journeyman.

Master-Student Program

I am a bit surprised that you all don't get tired of hearing from me about how the Master-Student Program is the lifeblood of future generations of Sadowans to grow from. I can speak from experience that my former Master and my then-Rollmaster and Quaestor all worked to make my early days in Clan Naga Sadow and Shar Dakhan very enjoyable. The master-apprentice system is the lifeblood of our system- older members giving support and feedback to our newer members to help enrich their experience.

New members can be paired with an experienced member who has been right where they are at now. This program also helps us to retain members who might otherwise look and wonder where they can fit into the odd band that is CNS and the Brotherhood. As such, I urge our pre-JM4 members to use their experience, freely given to help find your place and fun. Who knows, you just might make a new friend, as I did in my former master, among others.

If you are interested in taking part as either Master or Student, click this handy link and fill out the form. As openings become available, your friendly, neighborhood Rollmaster will pair members up. It is a tad more detailed than the previous iterations of the form, but this just helps my office to match members together better, so no fear!

Competitions

This section is where I plug the things that you all can take part in an enjoy. Oh, did I forget to mention that New Ties is going on? Well, just in case, we are about a third through New Ties and I encourage our members to take part in New Ties to show just how awesome Clan Naga Sadow can be. This is not your traditional competitive event, being a chance to grow closer with our fellow Clan and club members, but that is no reason not to take part in the fun! So, go on already. Click this link to check out the many competitions of New Ties!

Also going on is the slightly less prominent but still fun Trials of the Black Guard is also going on. It is about half-way done at the time of writing this report, but that leaves plenty of opportunities to participate. The Trials include PVP gaming, PVE gaming, graphics, writing, Battle Plan planning and a puzzle competition. The overall competition gives our members a chance to score some second level crescents as well as allowing our non-Summit members the chance to serve as a member of the esteemed Order of the Black Guard.

Although it is nearly over, members have the chance to write an alma mater for the Shadow Academy, write a fiction about a night on the town, the Master at Arms is running another Puzzle comp, you can write about an uneasy alliance with a rival, you have the chance to write a possibly reality where you are thought to be the last of your kind, or you can try to design your clothes as the theoretical Emperor of the Empire.

The Herald is also still running the Shroud War tournament while such staples as the Quarterly Gaming Challenge and Gorefest offer the usual challenges. Don't forget to take part in Lifeblood or the Voice Dialogue Series as long as you are scoping things out.

This all isn't enough for you? Well, there is the main competitions page to look at too. It changes frequently so check it regularly, or risk missing the fun. No joke. Click here. Do it. Do it now.

As spring ramps up, things are ramping up in the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. We have New Ties (plug plug), the Trials of the Black Guard, the upcoming Great Jedi War and lots of things we haven't even seen just yet. There are always ways to take part. Things can be work/writing/creation on the wiki, writing some fiction on the discourse, gathering with your Sadowans in Heroes of the Storm to game a bit, playing Pazaak or Jedi Academy with others in the Gaming Channel, or taking part in any number of competitions that we all have available. With Heroes of the Storm now a chance to earn Crescents, for example, the range of activities you can take part of steadily increases. Take part excitedly in that fun to demonstrate yet another facet of your awesomeness as a Clan!

The Brotherhood is an awesome place to be. It can be even better when you find your niche to take part in. As ever, I encourage everyone, from the greatest Elder to the freshest Apprentice to find your own niche and drive that bit home. Some of you are more gifted with Graphics than narratives, or more quick on a game than you are to take part in

TLDR;points of interest

  • several Sadowans recieved awards and recognition

  • updates from various offices of the Brotherhood

  • New Ties

  • Trials of the Black Guard still going on

  • Sanguinius and Jax Bendal are our Consul-Proconsul team

  • congrats Evelyn Wyrm and Jurdan Krennel on Quaestor and Aedile respectively in House Shar Dakhan

  • stop reading the TL;DR and go read about awesome chances and accomplishments by our members!

Closing remarks

This club is an awesome place. There are more opportunities for fun than you can find in many other places. We all take part in this massive fictional world to make stories and experiences that are both wonderful and at times strange.

The defining part of that awesomeness is none of that, though. The thing that makes this place is awesome is all of you. I don’t mean only you, my sweet Sadowans. I mean every one of you. From the Grand Master clear down the newest initiate in the club make this a wonderful, spectacular community to be part of. The fond memories and stories that we create together that transcend any character we can fathom, close friends and frenemies alike locked in untold conflicts and cooperative affairs, they are all an important part of our Brotherhood, our fellowship.

Yes, that is an almost direct quote from my last report, but it makes it no less true. There are always events or competitions of varying scope going on and the only thing that limits your chance to take part is you.

Also, if you feel we are want for an event or an activity that you feel would be enjoyed? Contact myself and the rest of the Clan Summit, and we can consider adding a new event/competition so that you all have even more stuff you can do.

The Great Jedi War still looms just over the horizon. Join the rest and rock the space in between in the way that only Clan Naga Sadow can. If you need anything look to myself, to Sang or Jax, your respective Quaestors and Aediles, or even your Battle Team leaders and we will do what we are able. Lacking that, we will put you in contact with the folks who can do that which we cannot. Our purpose in our positions is ultimately to serve you, our membership.

As ever, if you need help, somebody to talk to, or whatever feel free to contact me as ever on Telegram or via my email- both which can be found on my profile. As ever, I am your Rollmaster and...

Your Servant in Shadows, Your Servant in Sadow,

An excellent report, Benny.

I hope that you all get the chance to participate in the Black Guard series, despite the unfortunate timing of New Ties.
