_ Octavia grunted as she punched the punching bag in front of her. She had been down in the rec room for about an hour now. She had been extremely stressed lately and was beginning to feel the pressures of leadership. She bunched the bag again, sweat dripping down her features as she fought with the bag, trying to beat an unstoppable enemy of emotions and thoughts when her communicator beeped at her from around her waist. Rolling her eyes she stopped and quickly unwrapped her hand before answering the beeping communicator.

"What?" she spoke curtly at the person who had dare bother her during her work outs.

"You, Octavia, need to learn how to speak to your Quaestor." She could hear the slight smile in Quejo's voice.

Sighing she rolled her eyes. "Sorry, Sir. What can I do for you?"She made her way to the locker room and watched his small blue hologram projected into the space above the communicator as she began to unwrap her other hand and kick off her shoes.

"Well I need you to go and look at what Ood had been looking at before he left, and using that brain of yours put the pieces together and bring it to me, understood?"

She nodded and shut the communicator before he could say anything else. She needed her time to think and he had already taken up too much of her time and ignored the beeping as she walked into the shower._

Hello all!

I know, it's been a while since my last report.. I finally received a laptop so now I'm in business! A lot has happened since my last report, so let me get to filling you lot in!

<font size="5">News</Font size></font color>

The big stuff that most of us know already.. Ood made my a tree and left. </end really bad tree joke> He actually went to bigger, greener pastures as he is now the PCON for Clan Scholae Palatinae! We wish him all the best! And if he ever wants to come back, that's cool too :)

Sooo.. Ood left right? Now who will take his place? Enter Quejo Drakai!! Quejo has been around the DB for 5 years, and has experience to boot! Everyone, if you haven't done so already, stop by and say hi to the new man in charge!

Also, the RoS is coming up shortly.We have been informed it is more on quality than quantity. Because of this, we are focusing on our strengths and not the volume of entries. Alaris wants personal emails from all of you telling him your strengths so we can set you up with the right competitions. so get on it!!!

from your character's past, a mission you've gone on, or something that

even only tangentially involves your character. If you've ever had a story

pop into your head and haven't found a decent reason to put it to paper,

write it here. While no hard guidelines, it is difficult to write a decent

story that's less than about two pages long.
