Myrmidon Devil’s Shroud’s Battle Team Office

Sitting at her desk, Lilith pondered the transfer request in front of her. Wow, losing someone like Qyreia is really going to hurt this team. We’ve gotten some new members, hopefully there will be someone or even someones among them that can step up and fill the void. Devil’s Shroud has some great members but we are going to need all the help that we can to survive what I feel is coming. Signing her name with a flourish to the request, she said “Good luck Q, I wish you all the best in your new position, as long as it’s not against us.” Looking around the office, Lilith snickered to herself thinking, hopefully no one in the hall heard that. I really didn’t mean to say it out loud.

NOTES FROM THE BTL

Since my last report House Shar Dakhan has a new Aedile. Let’s welcome Evelyn Wynn as one of our new summit leaders. Looking forward to all the fresh ideas that she will bring to this position.

I hope that everyone has taken the time to congratulate our very own Scarlet Agna on her promotion from Mystic to Savant. It was my great pleasure to be asked to take the lead on writing the recommendation for her promotion. Congratulations once again Scarlet.

Sands of Time finished with a flourish congratulations to Firith, Tasha, and Ashia for coming in 1st, 2nd,and 3rd respectively. I took 4th, oh well, I get them next time. ;)

Darkblade and I have teamed up to do a couple of graphic competitions and I am really hoping that we get a good showing from the Battleteam.

If anyone has any ideas for competitions that they would like to do and that they don’t know how to get something going, or they don't have the time, hit me up. I’m game to help out, however is needed. I would like to see some new and different competitions from what has been offered in the past, but even I get stuck in a rut with graphics, fictions, and run-ons.

I would like for all the Battleteam members to let me know what they think as we go along. I am always open to suggestions and any and all help from everyone involved in Devil’s Shroud will be much appreciated.

If any of our newer members have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me, either privately on Telegram or through my email. I do check both several times a day and will help you out any way that I can.

Miscellaneous Items

In this section I will be giving you heads ups of things that will be happening in the Battleteam or any news that doesn’t fit in any of the categories above.

I am asking that each member of Devil’s Shroud sit down and think of what they would like to see being done in the team, what kind of Comps you all want to do, any ideas that you have to make this the best Battleteam in the DJB. I want to involve everyone. Please either respond on this report, PM me on TG, or shoot me an email at [Log in to view e-mail addresses].

We have a lot of new members that have joined our Battleteam, looking forward to seeing what all this fresh blood can bring to the table.

Final Thoughts

Firith has issued a challenge to this Battleteam. He wants to see if you all can do better than he does on the two squadron insignia patch graphic comps that are running. Let’s show him what a great Battleteam this is and get those entries in.

Well folks, I’ve rambled on long enough. Stay active, keep up the good work, and most of all have fun.

From the (cough, cough) office of Lilith Alema’rha Versea-Stormwind. Talk to you next month. Lilith out.
