Report #1

Dark Greetings Gladius,

I'l be blatantly honest, I suck horribly at sending out reports... and... a lot of the times, I cnanot think of a single thing even if there are many things, to put into a report. Anyway, this report is long overdo. I will be, from now on, giving regular reports on a weekly basis. This is so all of you will remain informed of what is going on from week to week, as you all deserve to know (it's no fun being left in the dark). In this report in particular, I'll be starting with the Projects and Plans rather than beginning with the activities of the House, so bare with me.

Projects and the Fun Stuff

First piece of business, the reopening of Battle Teams, The Keepers and The Mystics. Some of you (namely our newer members), would not know the history behind these two teams, however, I've had a chance to hear some stories from odler members here, as well as read a bit of the runons they participated in. It seems, the Mystics was the odlest battle team here, with the Keepers being the second oldest. Well... seeing as I love things with history like their's behind them, I decided I wanted to see them once more re-established in House Gladius. The Keepers, following the delightful DA Telona Murrage's suggestions, will be a Battle Team for the ranks of Protector, Guardian, and Jedi Hunter's. Also, she, of great experience, will also be leading the reopened battle team, training and guiding our members in the ways of our Clan and House. That leaves us with The Mystics. The battle team, Mystics of the Black Arts will be for those Dark Jedi Knight, and above; an elite team. At the present moment, with a few other matters remaining hight up in the air, this team will remain memberless until I can establish a leader for it. Hopefully, I'll be able to do so within the next couple of days.

The Praxeum will remain open, with Windos at the helm to train our newcomers. He is another of the most able individuals I've had the pleasure of working with, and I know he will do as awesome a job as he has been doing tha tpast while (no thanks to my forgetting to move the newcomers INTO his team... won't happen again).

Now, for a few others things. KP Cipher K'oranian Isradia has taken up the spot of House Envoy. It si her job to both welcome, and inform our newest members fo what they need ot know, as new members. She is good at everything she does, and I am sure this task will not be any different for her. If any of our newer members have any questions, Cipher is a great source of help, feel free to speak with her, or send her an email with your questions at [Log in to view e-mail addresses] .

Besides Cipher, there is always myself to target questions at, and I am always available via email at [Log in to view e-mail addresses] . For our newer members in the Praxeum, reach your battle team leader Windos at [Log in to view e-mail addresses] , and for those in the Keepers, reach Lady Telona at [Log in to view e-mail addresses] . We are all more than happy to help anyone out, so, don't be afraid to contact us. If you have IRC, that is a bonus, as I am normally around somewhere there at most times of the day (depending on my work schedule).

Last piece of business in here... Character Development. I have this big thing for character development... a lot of the older members of most clans, have put a lot of thought behidn their characters... Tha tis to say, many things that make up our characters have been thought out over and over again. This was normally done through works of fiction that were aimed to develop your character, or... the best, runons. I've had a chance to looka t some of the clan's old runons... adn I've got to say they are some of the most amazing pieces of work I've ever read. This is a group of people that knows their characters, and, are comfortable in the very aspect of their particular characters... from personalities, to appearances and attitudes. This is something a lot of the newer members are needing to get more into... and maybe it'll spark just that much more interest. I was thinking we could do some runons possibly, as well, we cna put together some interesting character development competititons and the like. I'll be working with summit to try and put something together.

Events

RoS... Yes... the Rite of Supremacy has long started, and, well... it is something we should all be trying to participate in. Myself and Windos have been right into the ACC, and, of late, I've seen some battles that Bane is fighting in. More activity is needed here. There is the ACC, gaming platforms, and even fiction stuff to jump into, don't be afraid to throw some stuff out there and participate, there are awards and promotions to be had, show us how badly you want it.
