Quaestor Report #1

header

Greetings everyone. I am excited to announce my first report as the Quaestor of Satele Shan. We have had a small bout of musical chairs in leadership positions here with Len and Max moving upwards, so my tenure as Aedile was short.

This report will cover many topics. Specifically, it will cover some of the administrative items that have occurred over the past few weeks that may have been somewhat under the radar regarding the organization of Satele Shan. We will also cover the few remaining actions items before we can hit the ground running as the time of year ramps up for increased activity and participation.

I apologize, as always, as the reports are not my strong suit but I greatly appreciate all the feedback and little directions along the way - graphics are centered now! Sort of. Also, this report is somewhat unique as it will not be a full monthly report hitting on all the impressive work of our members and their accomplishments. Those will be forthcoming however once the remaining Summit seats are filled and Satele Shan is back to full constitution.

A New Aedile

As I alluded to, we have some movements within House Satele Shan leadership. After an extensive search over the past few weeks I am proud to announce that Mystic Talis DeMorte will be stepping up as the new House Satele Shan Aedile. Talis has been a longtime member of Tython Squadron and took over the BTL role during the ARC-COU event that has recently concluded.

Talis has many good ideas that he presented and has a focus on character development and participation that I admire and works well with the efforts that we have been trying to implement within the House over the past few months regarding a fictional focus and world building. I expect great things from him and know he will do a good job.

Tython Squadron BTL Wanted!

Now that Talis has moved up, we are looking for a new BTL for Tython Squadron. To be blunt, Tython Squadron is my baby in a way, and I care about her deeply. Looking for someone who wants to take charge, keep the unit on track and active, and continue the illustrious history of the DJB's only elite, invite only, BTL. Please send applications to myself and Talis, with a deadline of MAY 15th.

Qualifications are as follows:

  • Must be an active member of House Satele Shan.

  • Must maintain a good turnaround time on communications (email, Telegram, etc.) with 24-hour maximum response time.

  • Must promote activity, membership engagement, fictional development, and open lines of communication.

  • Must produce competitions, fictional updates, and be comfortable with updating the Wiki page.

  • Must present ideas for future growth and development of Tython Squadron.

  • No previous leadership experience required, but it will be given preference.

  • No minimum rank requirements.

Completed Housekeeping

When I took over a Aedile/Quaestor I announced a to do list of items that were needed to get Satele Shan current fictionally and from an organizational standpoint. This coincided with a needed "down-time" after a consistent 8 months of major events and ongoing competitions. Likewise, this time of year is historically a low point in activity so it made sense to do the behind the scenes work now before hitting the more public items hard.

  • Raider Chrome has created, yet again, new banners and break graphics for these reports.

  • Vanguard Korroth formatted our updated House Satele Shan Wiki

  • Group email chain established to reach all members.

  • Individual email sent to all members of the House I have not personally worked with.

  • Survey Monkey went out regarding competition types and possessions.

Christening The Fleet

With the new alignment of leadership and focus on fictional identity of the House, we have decided to redo some of our possessions. This is being ushered in with a new competition where you all can submit names for the new ships. The competition is called Christening the Fleet

The competition runs through the end of the week. Once the names come in, the ships will be named and the House wiki will be updated to reflect this along with the possessions themselves. Everyone can look at our possessions Here

Closing

Thank you all for wishing me well in taking over the unit, and I hope to do great things to foster the teamwork, the atmosphere, and the fun of Satele Shan.

Going forward, expect a rather sizable fictional update for the House along with a slew of competitions and a mini event by end of May.

Also, once we get the full Summit in place there should be much more communication and activity, back to the level we are all accustomed to. Thank you.
