The lights dim as the dark figure enters the room. Piercing blues eyes are all that can be seen beneath the cloak.....
Phoenix walks through the shadows towards the seat at the head of the room. The cloak flies off and lands on the back of the chair.
Phoenix sits and opens a channel to the clan.
Following passage was taken from the HC Aedile Report:
Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are. ~ Arthur Golden
Conflict and adversity seem to abound, regardless of how much you may try to avoid it. They are unfortunately inevitable, and can not be controlled. However, what determines the ultimate outcome is not how well we avoid the struggles of conflict, but rather, how we react to them and survive them. When others attack you, you can choose to fight back, or you can dismiss them as being unworthy of the effort. Pick your fights wisely, and do not give into petty squabbles and the ramblings of those who would bring you down. Know yourself, as the important and worthy being you are, know that you are a valued individual. By meeting adversity and conflict with your head held high, knowing your strengths, and your weaknesses, by learning from the struggles you overcome, you will gain greater wisdom and experience than one who would hide from the difficulties.
But in all things, we must remember, we are responsible for our own actions, and in facing a conflict in the proper way, we influence the outcome. Be respectful of others, even if you disagree with them, it will show you as the better person in the long run. If you accept the challenge, and still seek the positive aspects, you will grow stronger from the lessons learned. Adversity forces us to see ourselves as we are, to reach deeper within ourselves for that inner strength.
House Caliburnus and Clan Scholae Palatinae have had a long history of standing strong through many storms and conflicts, we have survived more than our share of adversity, and yet we continue to thrive and grow. What has allowed us to remain strong and prosperous is the simple fact that we seek constantly to rise above the tides of petty arguments and pointless insults. We pull together, we stand as one united family, we help each other, and we work together to constantly raise the standards in all that we do. As long as we remain united, and vigilant, then we can not be broken.
Adversity and necessity are the fires by which a persons soul is truly forged. Either it survives to become stronger, or it will be destroyed. ~ StormRaven

Demious:
Protector Demious has been doing a stellar job so far in his career. He participated in CSP's Summer Games and earned himself a Crescent with Emerald Star. He has also explored the message boards and begun populating it with his posts as well as a story in the Writer's Corner, "The Origins of Demious," an eighteen chapter short story dealing with a universe parallel to Star Wars (http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=4275). He has also been popping in on IRC lately and I'm glad to say that he's a part of House Acclivis Draco.
Ood:
Full participation in "Into the Unknown" a CSP RPG Event. Into the Unknown - Part 1 - was what can be described as a 'live' RPG conducted over IRC (#krath) by Game Master Niemand. It placed a series of adventurers on a quest into a temple found during the "Quest for Caliburnus" as they sought out great treasures, artifacts and additional items to increase their own power and that of Scholae Palatinae. The event was chronicled and dated... taking well over two months...countless hours... and inspiring countless hours of fun, hilarious stories and comradery within the group of adventurers!
Link: http://krath.org/csp/rpg/csp_rpg.html Great work to each and everyone of you! This was the ultimate competition for fun and character development. The hours you spent working as a team, communicating and building the Clan Lore are thankless!

Scholars:
The Shadow Academy is a great tool and asset to further one's understanding of the Brotherhood, The Expanded Star Wars Universe and Leadership within the Brotherhood. In the early stages (APP, NOV, ACO) it can be a useful tool to explain the basic elements of the DJB. For the older members it is simply a way to expand their own, working knowledge base.
Scholar of the Week: This weeks Scholar is KE Karva Dronaal, OP Zigaurath Glyndwr Mandalore and NOV Maven with Two Exams.

IRC:
Just because someone is not in our clan, does not give you the right to verbally assault them or go as far as saying they have no rights in our channel. When a person comes into our channel, they are equals, we do not discriminate, bash, assault, or whatever in any way. This type of behavior will not be tolerated. If someone is saying something that offends you, take it to PM and ask them to stop IN A RESPECTFUL MANNER. Also, the only members in this Clan who have the right to change the topics and ban anyone, are the House and Clan Summits.
Internet-Relay Chat (IRC) is the second (after e-mail) most accessible asset/tool within the Dark Brotherhood (DB). As a new member in the DB, IRC can provide you with real-time answers to real-time problems/questions. In fact, I was once a new member that spent countless hours on this chat service picking the minds of my Quaestor and Aedile for every facet of the Clan and DB.

Command Staff of CSP:
Clan Summit:
Consul(Con): Krath Pontifex Braecen Kunar
Proconsul(PCon): Sith Battlelord Phoenix Olkyssagh d'Tana Palpatine
House Summits:
Quaestors(QUA):
-Krath Epis RevengeX Palpatine(HAD)
-Sith Battlemaster Thran Occasus(HC)
Aediles:
-Dark Jedi Master Nathaniel(HAD)
-Sith Battlemaster Rasilvenaira StormRaven(HC)
Envoys:
Knight Class Envoy(KCE): Dark Jedi Knight Zeron
House Envoys:
-Krath Pontifex Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine(HAD)
-Guardian Fionn dan Locut'Hal(HC)
Assistant Envoy:
-Dark Jedi Knight Ood Bnar Sythe'rae(HAD)
-HC TBA
-Masters:
-All masters fall under the Envoy System because that is who they must report to on the Advancement of their student.
-All trials and Reccs for promotions/medals must be first approved by the KCE and Clan Summit.
Now, when it come to promotions and medals, this is how it is followed.
-Consul: May promote up to Battlemaster, Prelate and Archpriest
-Proconsul: May promote up to Warrior, Templar and Priest
-Quaestor: May promote up to Dark Jedi Knight
-Aedile: May promote up to Jedi Hunter
Which means, any promotion has to be cleared with the higher ups.
-Any member can recommend a promotion/medal, but it must be cleared through the channels.
-All Medals must be approved by the Clan summit, unless they are for something outside the clan....(i.e DBPA, GMRG work.)
-The exception to this rule would be if it were added to clan work, then it must be approved.
To add another part, all Honorary Titles(Palpatine, Paladin, etc) you still fall under the Leadership of the House you reside in. There are no exceptions to this.
Also, all information pertaining to house histories, story line's, etc. must be run through their perspective house summits and clan summit.
This is the bottom line, this is how the system works.
Any questions, concerns or "critiques" can be sent to me by pm or email.
