House Ventress Report #13

header

Hey Ventress and welcome to my 13th Quaestor report! It has been nice to have a bit of a break after an especially difficult GJW, but we’re back into it now with the Aliso Summer festival underway and the Pro Bowl beginning in about a month.

News

DB News

We’ll start off this section of the report with Evant who released a call for applications after CNS CON Benny decided to step down. A couple of weeks later, he announced that DarkHawk Sadow had been appointed. Congrats DarkHawk!

Bubba is next with a call for members to take the GJW Survey. I believe the survey is still open so if there was something you liked or didn’t like, you should fill it out. He also released a report with an update on what is happening in Clan Taldryan. They are trialling a new clan structure without Houses. Instead, what were House summits have been replaced by two Magistrates to the Consul who will be responsible for performing specific tasks. I am very interested to see how the experiment goes.

Voice news is next up. Xen released chapter 3 and the epilogue to the GJW story and finally, an effort to remove the emo from the DB. In fiction, the DB will now be known as the Brotherhood, and the DC as the Council. This makes total sense given that we’ve had Jedi and non-Force Users for many years now. It was time for the DB to jettison its emo phase. It is an IC only change, there is no rebranding of the club as a whole. It is a change to better reflect where we are in fiction.

Turel released two bits of information this month. First was a report announcing his new team, some announcements on future plans and some war stats. In a supplemental, he announced that Mario Kart 8 and the Star Wars CCG were now supported platforms. Talon even wrote a guide on how the CCG works. I am really excited about this because I used to play many years ago. It will be awesome to get back into it again.

Atra released two items. The first being a Covenant Amendment dealing with the expulsion of deleted dossiers. Second was another Covenant Amendment on removing ‘Dark’ from the Dark Council, a reference to Xen’s report from earlier. This change was approved and if you go to the DB website now and click on Rosters, you’ll now see the DC roster page is now titled ‘The Council’.

And in the final piece of DB news, Anubis released a report with some updates, the GJW rewards, and a brand new Booster pack! This one includes a bunch of new capital ships for the clans to buy.

House Ventress News

The summit finished the pass through the roster just after my last report dropped. Congrats to Mauro Wynter on his Sapphire Blade, TuQ’uan on his Steel Cross, Zuser on his Anteian Cross and Vishi on his promotion to Acolyte and Dark Cross!

Clan Plagueis News

Lots of Plagueis news this month! The big news is the Aliso Summer Festival is now underway! Week 2 has just finished, but there is still one week to go as well as three event long competitions. This event is designed to be easy to participate in, and a way to blow the cobwebs out before the Pro Bowl begins. Here are the Aliso Summer Festival competitions!

Next up, Tyranus Quaestor, Khryso, stepped down a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for all the work you’ve done for the clan! Especially fiction development. This is an area that the clan has not been doing the best at, but Khryso was there helping to further develop the fictional places that we play in. Before he departed, he released his final report as QUA.

In his place is a recent (re)addition to the clan, Raiju Kang! I think he is going to be an excellent addition to the summit and comes in with plenty of ideas and is highly motivated to move Tyranus forward. He has even already released a report!

Slags released a post-GJW breakdown report. Lots of useful stats in there if that is your thing. Last month, we asked for your votes on who was going to be the Allegiant for Great Jedi War XV. This was the person the clan judged to be the most helpful throughout the event. By a narrow margin, this award, and the Rakatan Energy Transfer Device went to our very own TuQ’uan! And making it a double for House Ventress, Nora Olen was awarded Plagueis Ascendant as the member with the highest score from the GJW. She also received the Mortis Crystal. Congrats to both of them! Slags also released a supplemental report about the appointment of Raiju to Tyranus QUA.

Finally, our PCON Alaris released a report with a fiction update and an activity report on what the clan has achieved recently.

Aedile's Corner

Howdy Ventress!

Can you believe August is almost over? The time flies by so fast. If you didn’t already know, Aliso Festival is happening right now as we speak! There are still some comps you can do. This is for ALL of Clan Plagueis. So make sure you get your submissions in before it’s too late. You do not want to miss it!

In other news, I have a very serious question to ask. What’s your favorite scary movie?

Personally for me, I would have to say Halloween.

If you have any other questions, comments or concerns- free to reach out to me or the Summit via email, or Discord. (You can even message me if you’re bored, I don’t mind!)

Until next time,
Nora Olen

Final Thoughts

It has been nice to be able to sit back and take a breath after what was an extremely busy six weeks. But don’t relax too much though! The Pro Bowl will begin in about a month and there might be a surprise or two in store. Watch out on Discord and the DB site for more info when it is released!
