RevengeX watched as Jedi Hunter Laurus led Rollmaster Ood Bnar outside the headquarters and into the mountains. 'This should be interesting,' thought Revenge as he watched them race each other towards the edge of the oasis. When they were only mere specks at the foot of a great mountain, the Archpriest turned around away from his window and sat down at his desk. Cracking his knuckles, Revenge picked up a clean piece of paper, wrote a few sentences on it, but crumpled it up and threw it away into the trash receptacle behind him. Writing his bi-weekly reports seemed to be getting more difficult since his mind was so easily distracted by the number of recent events haunting the Clan. His datapad emitted a sharp, pestering sound reminding the Quaestor that he needed to send his report soon. "Late 2 Standard Days" the screen blinked. 'Ugh, my report's late...' One of the things that annoyed the Palpatine was sending things out late. Sitting down and forcing himself to finish his report, he got another clean piece of paper and began to write...

INTRODUCTION:

Yes, the Antenora: In-Depth project has begun with Laurus leading the project! The House Feud's going strong and we have a myriad of projects coming up after the Feud that expand and delve into our House's development! The faster we whoop HC, the more time we'll have to bite into the meat of those projects! ;)

CLAN NEWS:

The House Feud is still continuing! Chapter 3 has been released and the run-ons are in full swing (our run-on is here: http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=3594)! Predator has been named the newest Palpatine, so be sure to congratulate him. This is one of the Clan's greatest honors, and only half of a handful of the hundreds of members who have passed through the halls of Scholae Palatinae hold this name. Participate in the MP gaming event because it's loads of fun! :D

HOUSE NEWS:

We're still ahead of Caliburnus, but only by nine points! We've got to pull ahead of those ruffians to make sure that Acclivis Draco remains the dominant House in Scholae Palatinae! By the way, a big thank you to everyone who's participated in the House Feud and run-on so far! To those of you who haven't: get to it! :) We have two members in the 3rd Championship Ladder's second round (Uzbad and I) and we have quite a few participating in the Eraser Competition (Uzbad, Ras, Ood, and I). Be sure to wish these peeps good luck. Our Aedile, Rasilvenaira StormRaven has been promoted to Sith Warrior! Welcome to the Equite class!

In other news, I will try to give constructive criticism to all writing competition entries and ACC battles. That means, send your writing competition entries and links to any ACC battle (doesn't have to be completed or judged yet) over this way so that I can both: 1) note your activity, and 2) give you constructive criticism so that next time, you'll get second place instead of third. If you would not like to receive constructive criticism at all, please notify me and I will honor that wish. I do not like to force things too much.

HOUSE DIRECTION:

I may have already written about this topic, but oh well: Get involved with your House. I don't think I can stress how important this is. I don't necessarily mean be active (although that's good too), but get involved with your House. Talk with your House Summit, help them with projects, suggest projects, listen to them and especially talk with them. The one thing that is essential to an excellent organization is good communication. We must communicate with each other if we even want to think about becoming the greatest House of the Brotherhood. Sure we can hide secrets, shun each other and all that (I mean, we're a family after all; don't all families have secrets?), but we must remind ourselves that because we are family, we communicate with each other and we embrace each other even if we have hard feelings towards another. So, get involved with your House and House Summit. If you're eying a promotion or medal, best get to it quick-like.
