Kordath Bleu took half a dozen steps into the Dark Forge ready room, from the door that lead to a hall off a corridor branching from a bypass around the training areas nestled within Kurs'kranak, and stopped. A few more steps would have taken him straight into his small, poorly lit, ultimately utilitarian office, where he would have 'worked' for a time quite audibly snoring, and ignored the activities around him. Instead he slowly turned, scanning the room with it's holoscreen on the wall, several chairs and a couch opposite of it, and noted that something was amiss. Spotting Kookimarissia, whom he noted was huddled up at one end of the couch staring in wide eyed confusion, he finally found words.

“....Kooki...”

“Sir?” she said, startled from her intense observations of the other room's occupants.

“Did...did we walk into the wrong ready room?”

“I...I checked the door, twice sir, it still says Dark Forge next to it on the little embossed sign.”

“So....who are...what are these people here for? Where's the fish? And Nath? And...all of those other people?”

“I don't know sir, I don't know I don't know I'm not sure what's going on, ummm, there was a delivery earlier though, something about 'assignment orders' I think.”

Kordath stood silently, staring at the data card that Kooki held out to him, and sighed. New information and so-called orders meant...work, real, actual work. Taking it and slapping it into his data pad, the Ryn looked over the information and groaned.

“Bureaucracy at work, oh what fun...”

In the corner, he noted, a large plant seemed to blink, and he was almost certain, grinned at him.

RIGHT! Welcome to Dark Forge all ye new folks!

As of right now, fictionally, we are considered a 'lightsaber and demolitions' squad, of which the concept of is somewhat suspect, yet also somehow awesome in it's own special way. So grab a detpack or five, and always be on the lookout for things you're allowed to blow up. This does not include each other, you're commanding officer, or and of the senior officers of Galeres.....most of the rest are fair game, honestly.

So in the most recent news, we came in second overall for the Dark Crusade. Not too bad, honestly. As of right now, we've got a large number of competitions running that we're all able to participate in, and if I can ever get some real sleep, at least one for the Team as well soon.

Dozens of Games, part deuce, where every week or so a new flash game will be chosen to play, so this is browser based, meaning EVERYONE can be in the running. https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7360

Monthly Mobile gaming, there's two right now. These are played through apps on your phones/pads. https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7329 https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7330

Several gaming comps that are DB wide. https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7331 https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7332

The Antei Combat Center is going to hopefully be running again soon, in which using your character sheets, writing ability, and general deviousness to fight others. Currently the Voice staff is running a competition to create new venue's for the ACC, so if you feel up to the task of writing an outline of an environment for which two people will attempt to brutally murder one another, give it a go! https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7335

A couple of Old Republic related gaming event is going as well. https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7339 https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7340

For the artists out there, our Clan's very own newly Knighted Knight Valkish is running a graphics competition. https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7368

Ernodeth is also running one, in which the newly re-opened Shadow Phyle battle team is looking to get a new team Logo/seal. https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7370

Another DB wide competition...the Ugly Sweater Competition (again, part 2!), in which we will subject others to the horrors of the Holiday spirit, but showing off the absolute most horrifying, stomach churning sweaters that we can bring ourselves to physically wear. https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7336

And finally, the big one, the main event for the Clan for the time being (until the 21st anyways)...the Arconan Wedding of Socorra and Atyiru! This has something to do with the pettiness that exists between the Erinos and Entar families that seem to permeate the Clan, but that's not the point for all of us. The point is...5 events! 5 seperate events that anybody can do if they want, including one browser game, a poem, a fiction, and two graphic/multimedia ones as well. https://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/competitions/7359

So that's what we've got going on right now, I hope everybody enjoys the options for activity for the next month, and everybody survives the new year.

If you guys have any questions for me, never hesitate to drop me a line on IRC or through e-mail.
