Introduction

Within you will find some updates on the future for Clan Plagueis as well as a job posting. Read on!

Proconsul Applications

Last week, Qormus approached me about his need to take a step back from Plagueis leadership and his position as Proconsul due to real life demands on his time. I want to thank him for his ongoing service to the Ascendant Clan, as he has been an amazing contributor and solid staff member from damn near day one of my return to the Consul position. I would encourage everyone to thank him for the amazing work that he has done, maybe even take a look at his reward recommendations over the past damn near two years to get a better idea of all that he's accomplished. I hope that this is not a goodbye, but merely a pause in his stellar career in Plagueis leadership.

That being said, applications for Proconsul of Clan Plagueis are open effective immediately. I will take applications for one week, through site reset on the afternoon/evening of December 6th. There is no minimum rank requirement, though past leadership experience will be helpful. Applicants from all Clans will be considered, as I want to select the best person for the job no matter who they may be. Some of the requirements of the position are, but are not limited to, the following:

• 65% or better competition participation in all calendared Clan events or Brotherhood Vendettas.
• Be present on Clan communication platforms (especially Discord) so that members know that the leadership is available and approachable.
  
  • 24 hour or less turn around to email/chat communications
• Reach out to members in a one-on-one manner to cultivate activity during calendared clan events and Brotherhood Vendettas.
• Evaluate all subordinates and members for awards at least once per quarter.
• Release a monthly report on the 15th of each month +/- 2 days.
  • This report should focus on activity measures and awards presented to the Clan.
• Work with Quaestors to ensure they have the tools and support they need to build successful Houses.
• Co-Organize major Clan-wide calendared event competitions. ** At least two events per calendar year.
• Contribute fiction updates for Clan wide lore advancement.

The position of Proconsul is an excellent stepping stone to further advancement within the Brotherhood, offering the opportunity to work not just within your Clan but with the senior leadership of the Brotherhood. There are high expectations, but also equally high opportunities for reward and recognition. Applicants are free to contact me with inquires before submitting their application (as I always hate the idea of having to apply "blind" as it were"), and I encourage interested parties to take advantage either via email or discord. Feel free to include any and all plans or ideas you have for the position as well. Ideas regarding the expansion of Role Playing activities within Clan Plagueis are encouraged, but not required or a deal breaker.

2023: The Future

With the reshuffling of the Summit here at the end of the year, the Clan summit and I are still looking forward to the new year and the opportunities that it promises. We are looking to schedule another event internally once the calendar turns over to 2023, expanding upon the fictional development that came from the Pro Bowl. As a teaser, be on the lookout for the Confederacy of the Outer Reaches.

In Closing

We've reached the end of another year, and I want to say how thankful I am for everyone in Plagueis for all the contributions they've made so far in 2022. Additionally, (yet another) shout out to my fellow Consuls that made the Pro Bowl such a great success this year! I'm really looking forward to 2023, a new vendetta, and it's never too early to start looking forward to Pro Bowl VII!\

Keep on Adapt, Ascend, Availing out there, everyone!
