Tyranus Quaestor Report 12: The Hat Looks Back at 2023

Hey Tyrants,

Welcome to the Sithmas season! This is the time of year where we look back on the previous year, all the things we’ve done, our accomplishments, and (importantly) all the music we’ve been listening to!

We’re going to take a bit of a look back at Tyranus in 2023 but before we get there, Slagar put out a very important report. With Qormus’ appointment to the position of Emissary Plagueis has been left without a Proconsul, interested in taking on the position? Check out the report for details on what the role entails. Applications can be emailed to Slags by site reset on December 25th.
