** Ebon Cloak Report:

** Footsteps echoed down the long hallways of House Acclivis Draco as J'Lek

Arcanos, a Dark Adept who had spent much time in service to his Clan as a

leader, made his way to the meeting chambers of the Ebon Cloak phyle.

Concealed in the hood of his cloak, he allowed himself a nostalgic grin.

The Ebon Cloak had been his first command, ages ago, though that was short

lived as the needs of the House had soon called on him to serve as Aedile.

He had been a Guardian then, only just recently graduated from the Shadow

Academy...but that was another era, one where the Academy took Apprentices

and guided them all the way to Guardian, one where Apprentices could join

Houses...

He focused his attention back on his walk. He could have used any number of

other ways to get to the Ebon Cloak's meeting chambers, but he had always

appreciated a bit of ceremony to these sorts of things. All things

considered, a Dark Adept striding the halls (with the sound of his footsteps

boosted through the Force to add just the right amount of dramatic effect)

always seemed to cause the others in the House to sense an ambiance of an

important event. He allowed himself a pleased grin as he saw his student,

the Novice Tirna Q'jira, waiting at the entrance to the halls that were

dedicated to Ebon Cloak's activities. Apparently drawing on whatever

experience she had obtained with ceremony during her time as a member of the

Tetan Royal Family, she silently fell into step behind him, positioned

slightly to his right, following the instructions that he had given her to

the letter. The two Dark Jedi proceeded in silence, their footsteps the

only sound in the hallway as the approached the entrance to the chamber. At

a silent signal, the Novice increased the length of her stride so that she

would enter the chamber just before him. The doors opened at their

approach...

Everyone was present. A good sign, the Adept mused to himself, considering

that all they received was a message that gave them a time and a place and

the words "Formal Robes, please". He advanced to the front of the chamber

and gazed at each member of the phyle in turn, his own eyes shrouded by the

hood of his cloak.

"You are young."

He paused as he surveyed the Dark Jedi again, noting the chevrons on the

white robes of the newer members, Acolytes and Novices alike.

"You are inexperienced."

His eyes regarded the several Jedi in Protector blue.

"You are untested."

His eyes took in the entire group as he paused to use the Force to plant

thoughts in the minds of those assembled before him that would cause them to

contemplate their own worth.

"Clan Scholae Palatinae has a vast history, a history that no single member

of this Clan can relate. We have traditions of honor and integrity,

traditions of trust and respect. As members of House Acclivis Draco, you

are bound to honor the history of the Clan and uphold our traditions. You

are part of a House that can claim to be the best Krath House in the

Brotherhood, not only by the sheer number of our victories, but also by the

way we conduct ourselves."

He paused for a moment. "There are those in the Brotherhood who would not

give you the time of day because of your rank. These Dark Jedi would not

even deem you as a threat." He regarded each in turn again, using the

moment to review every word that he needed to say to his new phyle.

"I know differently, as do all of your fellow clansmen. You might not have

enough power combined to cause any higher ranking Jedi to quake with fear,

but together, you are indeed a force to be reckoned with." He regarded each

in turn. "I am J'Lek Arcanos, and there are many good reasons why I wear

these dark robes. A great deal of my time in the Brotherhood has been spent

as a leader. I am pleased to announce that the House Summit has appointed

me as the new Tetrarch of your phyle. While I get reacclimated to the post

of Tetrarch, I have some requests to make of all of you. Since the last

time that I served as Tetrarch, the computer systems of the Brotherhood have

advanced to a point where just about every piece of information that one

could desire can be accessed from a central location. To allow me to get an

idea of your strengths and weaknesses, I would like each of you to log into

the central database on Eos and make sure that you each have an accurate

Skills Profile. Be honest about your skills, but do not be over-critical of

your abilities. I plan to periodically record what you have in your

profiles and personal histories in my own records for the phyle so that I

might have this information available to me when my connection to the

Holonet is down, so please be sure that you keep your information

up-to-date."

"I said before that we are a Clan that upholds tradition. I now must also

say that few things please me more than the chance to implement new ideas.

Therefore, while we will use the tried-and-true, I would also ask that you

bring to me any ideas that you might have, even if they seem a little crazy.

If I think that it might be worth our time, we just might try it."

"Do not feel like you have to earn my respect or trust, for you already have

it. Though our ranks differ greatly, I see all of us as colleagues, and I

will give you the same respect as I would another Dark Adept until you do

something that proves that you are undeserving of such respect."

He chuckles quietly. "I suppose I have rambled on for long enough. Are

there any questions...?"
