<big>Consul Report - Naga Sadow</big>

== Introduction ==

**Executive Corporate Boardroom

Undisclosed Location**

"...and we couldn't locate any vessels in their records, we're assuming that they were either scuttled or fled the system before our quarentine could be established. Simonetti has established a more thorough patrol for our fleets for the next several weeks, if not months, to try and ensure we haven't missed anything and they can't infiltrate again." Roxas finished as he looked up from his terminal. The Mandalorian looked out of place without his armour, but considering most of the people here were dressed in formal attire, he was out of place anyway.

Mirado and Teu looked upon each other for a moment before they nodded to Locke, the sharply dressed man nodding in return before speaking, "We're moving ahead with plans to scuttle the two confinscated cruisers from the Galactic Alliance; one will be reefed near the Gilded Archipelago for a future tourist site while the other one will be turned into a military training ground on Tarthos at an undisclosed location. Both will have all of their working components stripped and destroyed or resold where-ever applicable."

The young Director paused as he heard some grumbling from within the room, not even bothering to look in its direction as he continued, "The reports from San Korinar look rough, both sides more than made their share of this mess and it's looking like we'll need to start reconstruction soon...luckily our surviving civillians have been relocated to either Kar Alabrek, Kel Rasha, Markosian or Seng Karash; those not wishing to stay in system have enlisted to help with the Rybanloth project."

Locke stopped, not even moving to the next part of his report when the doors opened at the end of the conference table. The light behind the figures prevented anyone from getting a clear look at who they were, but the fact that the Black Guardsmen and various Special Ops troopers had permitted them entrance to this private location seemed as good a reason for their presense as any. Of course, there was the other option...hands instinctively moved towards their sabers as each of them began to reach outward, making sure their guardians outside of the chamber were still alive.

Before anyone could act, the doors swung shut, revealing the figure of Methyas in neatly-pressed dark sagely robes with the aging figure of Robert Sadow standing behind him. The lost Proconsul stood before them now as Consul of the Clan, speaking quickly as though he hadn't missed a moment of time, "Locke, make sure that everyone on the board gets a copy of that report. I'll want to know what our projected costs are when we revitalize San Korinar. Now...I've heard mention that we've had a bit of an...lets say misunderstanding with the Galactic Alliance."

The Prelate paused, looking over the assembled figures at the table before him. He could feel their various emotions and took note of Teu and Mirado's nods before he continued, "This is something that cannot happen again, we've built years of repitoire between our Corporation and what started countless years before. I've given our Legate our story, the Cruisers were destroyed by the very same pirates who recently attacked our city of San Korinar before fleeing, and things have been repaired to a point. We will be sending them some of the scuttled parts as a gesture of good will, after some of our more escentric members have a go at them, and I will be continuing to communicate with our Legate to ensure the Alliance stays out of the system if at all possible."

Awkward shuffling could be felt amongst the assembled Summit as Bob simply stood stoically behind their Consul, whom was now seated at the head of the table, “In the wake of the recent shift and unfortunate decision of our Consul to step down; no-doubt you are aware that I have been appointed his successor.” A pause, short enough to take a note of each of the Summit’s reactions, “Likewise, I have brought enlisted the services of Robert Sadow for the Proconsul and Vice-president of the Corporation. Now, let us get down to business.”

As Bob silently shifted around the table, he moved to seat next to Methyas before the Consul continued, "Our friends in Taldryan are interested in furthering our work as an alliance..."

== Up and Coming ==

As I'm sure you've read above, Closing Pandora's Box has officially ended and with the end of this raid, your Consul has returned from his rescue. I want to send out a big congratulation to everyone involved in the entire event as well as those who competed and placed. A super special shout out to Tiberius Di Cloud who participated in every single competition and stole away an easy first place. Obviously Methyas made reference to our friends in Taldryan wanting to continue work with our Alliance and you can be sure that Sadow will be sure to keep up our end of the bargain. With more work going on to further our alliance, we're also gearing up to ensure that both Sadow and Taldryan are prepared for the obviously impending war.

War? Of course, Naga Sadow will be prepared for the Tenth Great Jedi War that's dropping upon each and everyone one of us on the 25th of this month. Only 21 days for us to get in shape to bring our full force down upon the other Units of the Brotherhood. Of course, I'm still working on some special projects that I hope to have out in time for the War that should help give some of our members a leg up in places they may not be prepared for.

== Internal Buzz ==

This past month obviously has been a rather interesting one for all of us with Closing Pandora's Box taking up a good deal of your time; I'm sure each and every one of you enjoyed those competitions as well as the additional competitions that have been passed out throughout the month. The number of our Journeymen competing has been rather pleasing in the eyes of your Summit. That said, everyone please take a chance and take part in each competition that comes your way from the Fist, Voice and other Dark Councillors; the War itself is a major staging ground for each and every one of you to take away some major award, both from the Council and from your Summit itself.

Clan Competitions

• Why are the Booze gone? - Apparently the Crossroads haven't been receiving their shipments and Sergeant Buurenaar has requested aid from the Clan as a whole.

• Harry Potter vs Star Wars - Tiberius has given everyone an interesting competition in which you can choose a point in the Star Wars universe for the people in Harry Potter to meet up with them for an epic confrontation, and who will win?

Brotherhood Competitions

• To the Victor go the Spoils - Our Herald is looking for us to create an artifact related to the history of our Clan, something that perhaps Lord Naga Sadow himself. The best creations will get some great shinies for your effort.

• [FIST] Special Event: Gratuitous Space Battles - The Fist has become rather addicted to a new game by the name of Gratuitous Space Battles, as such he's given everyone a chance to win it.

• Take the Cruiser! - Our Master At Arms has heard that our friends in the Galactic Alliance have sent a new Prototype on a shakedown run near Brotherhood space and believe that we should capture it for the Dark Council. You can enlist his aid or find a way to pull of the heist on your own.

• [DGM] Report Lyrics - Our Deputy leaves a single line from a song at the end of every report he releases, if you can respond first in the comments what the correct name of the song and artist are, you'll receive a nice shiny from our Deputy.

• [FIST] Soul Caliber IV Weekends - Every 3rd weekend of the month will be a special gaming event for Soul Caliber IV, in which you will be awarded Clusters of Fire for all your hard work in destroying your competitors.

• [FIST] Double CF Weekends - The 1st and 4th Sunday of every month, the Fist will personally award you twice the number of Clusters of Fire for all of your gaming on that day.

• [FIST] End of the Year Gaming - The Fist is going to award each and every one of you for your levels of activity in gaming over the entire year.

Of course, there will always be more competitions coming out as time goes on and there are also your House competitions out there which I haven't listed. Keep an eye on your Competition Listings for anything that's out there.

This past month, we've seen Cryil Omega promoted to Acolyte with Bonda Daade and Krajoti promoted to Novice. Congratulations to all of you, one and all.

Additionally we'd like to extend a warm welcome to Hades Shadowfire, Rune Dameer, Kekoa Crymson, Bonda Daade, Krajoti and Azerath Metrion. Lastly, we'd like to heartily welcome Raistlin and Robert Sadow back into Naga Sadow; one of course you'll already recognize as our Proconsul.

== In Conclusion ==

With Robert Sadow taken the reigns as Proconsul of Naga Sadow; expect to see some great things coming. I know each of you have already heard a bit from Bob, but I know he's very dedicated to this Clan and has some great plans for the future. Likewise, we'd like everything to have a hearty congratulation that have participated in the Closing Pandora's Box event and hope to see a great deal of you coming back to whoop everyone in the impending War.

As always, your Summit is always here for you if you have any questions, ideas or suggestions; if we've said it once, we can say it again, our doors are always open.

As per usual, the typical TL:DR section for those of you wishing to avoid the wall-o'-text:

• Everyone prepare for the impending War

• Keep an eye out for developments with House Taldryan

• Get involved in the existing competitions and upcoming competitions

• Welcome everyone new and has come back to us recently

For Sadow,

Prelate Methyas Pepoi L'eonheart

Consul of Clan Naga Sadow
