§ 1 Introduction
Members of House Exar Kun,
Hereby I would like to present to you my latest report as Aedile. Before I continue my report, I have to apologize for the fact my report is late once more. My real-life is still occupied with the pleasure of finishing the final essay for my law studies. Fortunate news is that all holidays are behind us now, so I will get back to my work as Aedile as well.
Our House remains to be a beacon of light and serenity in that never-ending tunnel of darkness we have been in for these last months. We just keep on welcoming new members every week and a couple of interesting and large projects are ahead of us or already up and running. The two Battle Team Leaders are preparing and hosting competitions with great dedication, which pleases me enormously. Both of them prove to be quite a success as the respective commanders in charge.
There was one disappointment last week. It was sad to hear that Starrett had to step down as our Roll Master. We will miss his presence around her. Keep on eye on the forum, because something else spectacular is coming up this week. Besides that we still are working on the planet project.
§ 2 Competitions
Here you see the outline for our House about all the competitions, which are currently running. We now have several competitions running for both our BTs. I will personally come up with a competition proposal for our House this week.
§ 2.1 Clan Plagueis
[CP] PCON Report Trivia
There will be 10 trivia questions in each of the next three PCON reports. The fastest response to each trivia with all answers correct will win a LS. At the end of the month, the competitor who completed all three events with correct answers will win an additional LS. (the overall winner will be decided by having all answers correct and the speed of submission).

[CP] Plagueis Fighters!
Alright we've chosen a Clan name award, a flagship name, and a symbol....so now it's time for more! I'm putting together a full list of the Clans fleet, and we currently have 10 fighter squadrons to name! So I've started a competition to name them.
For this MB thread, everyone (who wants to participate) should pick 2-3 names they like and post them. After 5 days I'll take those names, filter out any really really weird ones, and post them all on a poll for 3 days. Then we will keep voting down until we are left with 10.

[CP] di Plagia Website Description
Since the Clan has voted and decided on "di Plagia" as the new Clan name - we are in need of the text for the new website for this. Here are some examples of what we're looking for:

§ 2.2 House Exar Kun
One important competition coming up!
§ 2.3 Battle Teams
[BT ES] Unwelcome Guests
While House Exar Kun moves to its new planet many of the house's members are living in orbiting ships. One small ship built for twenty is the current home of Battle Team Exar's Shadow, and Commander Aabsdu Dupar spends as much time as he can with his battle team helping them practice, joining them in meditation, or letting the younger ones fly the ship around a bit.
Many of the older members travel to the larger ships to talk with friends, but Aabsdu stays on their small ship, the Excavator, unless he is in a leaders meeting.
The house was doing fine as the prepare their new home until the radar picked up a small group of ten fighters just out of range of weapons or scanners. Godo Nurok and Gaidal Dupar decided it was easiest to send a battle team to discover what the small group was doing in the region, and they chose Exar's Shadow.

[BT ES]Caption Contest
I have gathered together eight star wars related "funny" pictures. I wish for you to write a caption for at least five of the pictures. You are welcome to create a caption for all eight, and if you do so I will only take into consideration your five funniest ones. So you might as well go for all eight.

[CP EK] Heart of the Sunset
In an effort to stir up activity I came up with this idea. Simply enough, you are to compose a song or poem about my eternal majesty! It can be humorous or serious (so long as it scares people either way)
If you take the time to interview me (finding the heart of the sunset) you will no doubt gain my favor but more importantly you will know what to write about. Communication is a very important thing for us to develop as a BattleTeam. Aid yourself by talking to me!

[CP EK] Requiem for our Dreams
In light of the recent restructuring of the entire clan, I have decided it is in our best interest as a Team to create our history as an organized Team. It is your objective to write a history for Requiem. Give me 2-3 pages of pure writing.
Do some investigating around the clan to see what you can find out. If little information is provided, make it up!

[CP EK] Word search!
I think that one of the easiest competitions to do is a word search. So, I will be releasing one word search a week for an entire month!
Here's how it works:
I release a sentance or Phrase. You find as many possible words from the available letters in the phrase. Each word is worth one point.
Words that are Star Wars Related are worth 2 points. The person with the most points for each word search is the winner. The more words you find...the more points you get!

§ 4 General information
Last but not least I will supply you with a short outline of general information. As Aedile I am supposed to check frequently on the Battle Teams, make notes about the running competitions and give you all an outline of what you can do in our House. But there is more than that.
As Aedile I will also help each and every one of you within my powers. My basic principle from which I start working is trust; we need to be able to rely on each other, so we can be open-minded and honest to each other. To build up such trust we need to communicate: we can achieve this by email and IRC. Last but not least, I hold great respect to the ranks among our lines, but I myself see everyone equal or at least equivalent as a person. This might sound a bit unorthodox, but nothing to scare one off. It is actually quite simple: In case you have a problem, a question or anything else, feel free to step into my office. I can not do my work properly when the distance between you (as a member of HEK) and me (as part of the Summit) can not be bridged. For all new and fresh members, if you need any assistance, please ask. A wise man once said that there are no stupid questions. So feel free to use such a freedom of movement and speech.
In case you need to check the situation in the Brotherhood:
Information concerning our Clan (with a link to HEK) you can find on:
For all the new members, fresh from the Shadow Academy, in case you would like to communicate instantly and more direct with other members (which the Quastor of HEK, the Rollmaster and I highly recommend) make sure you get Internet Relay Chat (IRC). You can get this program easily and free and one can easily use it. So you should download from:
In case you need to ask me a question, you can usually find me on IRC (#plagueis, #db) almost 24/7. Otherwise you can always email me with your question(s) to:

That was all for this week, I think. Keep an eye on the competitions screen of the Brotherhood and you may look forward to another report of your Aedile somewhere around the same time as this week.
§ 5 Final remark
My last few words are meant for SW Starret, who left Clan Plagueis and more important House Exar Kun. I liked working with Starrett because he was always extremely sharp with his comments, which betrayed a rapidly working brain with a high degree of intelligence. We always understood and respected each other. As our Roll Master he welcomed many new members in his own special way. This made him unique and he had always time to talk to new members, or help them when they needed assistance the most. His dedication, loyalty and ambition will be missed around HEK. Sorry that you had to leave Starrett, we could have used your word, assistance & spirit around here. I salute you, Starrett!
