Welcome to the first ever, Quaestor of Taldryan Report!

It is sad not to be able to call myself Consul of Clan Taldryan, but times like this call for new measures and those measures have been met by the Dark Council and the respective leaders of the (now) Seven Houses. I for one am eager to use the potential that Housing up has given to the DB, and I hope you all will reap the benefits as are planned.

Before I continue though, I would like to thank Muz and Sarin for entrusting me with such a prestigious Position, and for Vodo who has taught me everything I know.

Now, at last: report time!

After housing up and stepping up to Quaestor, I had and continue to have a lot of things to take care of. My first order of Business is taking care of the Units within Taldryan: the Battleteams. At the moment all members have been removed from their BT’s (Besides the members in the Old Folks Home), and I will only have two Units open.

The first, is the Old Folks Home. This is a tradition that I will be keeping for our crotchety old geezers who can’t support themselves, and I am pleased to announce that OPM Benevolent Taldrya Whiner will be taking his place as OFH BTL once more. We’ll make you DA yet, Ben!

The second, which is the more noteworthy one, is the opening of Battleteam Phoenix. This battleteam will be the forefront of our Fiction side of the Clan and will house our members wonderfully. Phoenix has been a long tradition in House Ektrosis, as the Dark Fire Brigade has been for Dinaari. To best suit our current situation I am only allowing one “active� Battleteam to remain open until further changes are made.

With that, I am officially opening up an application period of two weeks for Battleteam Leader of Phoenix. The Requirements are as follows:

-Rank Requirement: PRT or Higher

-Email Turnaround of 24-48 hours – It’s high, but at this stage it is needed

-Must be capable (And willing) of maintain an Activity Tracking Record (ATR) for review at the end of each month

-You must know your way around the DJB.com site as well as have a good understanding on how the DB structure/leadership structure works

I am not looking for a super human, but I am looking for someone with very strong ideas, morals and is willing to work with a strong ethic. This is not the time to play or beat around the bush. You will be entrusted with some of Taldryans most active members, and I will not give such a position away lightly. You will be expected to:

Run competitions, write and publish Bi-weekly reports to your unit, constant communication between yourself and your Aedile on the status of your BT, and of course, an IRC presence; the stronger the better.

Applications will go to myself ( [Log in to view e-mail addresses] ) as well as my Aedile Vodo Biask ( [Log in to view e-mail addresses] ) by Sunday night on August the 8th at 11:59 PM EST.

Moving onto another note: Fiction. There will be a lot of Fiction work to be done with the closing of Clan Taldryan, House Ektrosis and House Dinaari and the opening of House Taldryan. I cannot do this alone, however, and I know we have some eager members who want to help out with getting us on track. With that being said I would like anyone who is interested in helping out with Fiction to email myself and Vodo and let us know of what you feel you are capable of. I hope to put together a small team to work on this soon, but I would also like to know what I have to work with beforehand.

Also, I threw together some graphics for this report, and I will continue to use them… but if someone just so happens to make me some super special-sexy report graphics, I wouldn’t be opposed… =D

I have not had the chance as of yet to start any competitions, but I assure you within the week you will have some good ones running for you from both myself and Vodo.

I’m going to keep this first report short and sweet as I am still finding my feet and don’t want to give out too much information on some of the fun goodies I have planned. So with that, I’m going to wish you all a fantastic end of your weekend.

I have this week off from work and am going to the Rockstar Energy Metal Mayhem Festivel (A7X ftw), and then am spending some time with no internet access at my friends beach house. It’s gonna be fun, and I’m going to love every minute of it. So I will be around tomorrow and Monday for all of your concerns and needs, but from Tuesday until Friday Vodo will be handling the House. I think he’s more than capable, don’t you?

Cheers,
