This has been a very eventful week for the Brotherhood. As many of you now know, the Dark Brotherhood will manage its own internal multiplayer competitions. This is a combined effort of the Order Leaders, the Deputy Grand Mistress, and myself. Obelish High Commander Exar Khaland has already released some Jedi Knight events which will soon be added to the Events Calendar. Sith Events should soon follow, and I'd like to remind the Krath that participation in the Combat Centre Ladder does earn you Clusters of Fire for winning a match.

I would also like to mention that any Brotherhood members that participate in the Outer Rim War, as well as any other inter-Club wars, must have DB somewhere in your IRC nick or any registration system used to record scores from the events. This way, I will be able to distinguish Brotherhood members from other Emperor's Hammer members.

I am going to update the Awards section of the DSC with some new information, namely the addition of the Scroll of Indoctrination. Hopefully, the main DSC will be updated soon, but until then please refer to the following URL for all medal related information: http://abyss.borkweb.com/chan/awards/awards.html.

Medal Requested: Grand Cross of the Dark Side (GC)

Requested for: OBM Shadow (Obelisk)

The request was made by: OBM Exar Khaland (Obelisk)

Reason given for request: OBM Shadow has continued to run the Obelisk Order as well as the GMRG when a lack of OHC and CoG was present. Without his contributions and will to continue to run competitions. The Order would now be at a loss. This award was well earned. OBM Shadow is a perfect example of what a Praetor should do. Excellent work Shadow. : OBM Exar Khaland

Medal Requested: Steel Cross (SC)

Requested for: DA Mejas Doto (Krath)

The request was made by: KE Daavak "Tronsta" Cantor (Krath)

Reason given for request: It has come to my attention a little late that Mejas had a large part in building the new Krath site, handling both graphics and layout. I'd like to award him the SC that his fellow Krath-site-builders have received as well for their fine work and team effort to get the page done.

*** Medals from the week of 11/24/02-11/30/02 ***

Medal Requested: Grand Cross of the Dark Side (GC)

Requested for: KAP Anshar (Krath)

The request was made by: KE Daavak "Tronsta" Cantor (Krath)

Reason given for request: As his battleteammate, Nicholas, Anshar has committed himself to a long period of service to his House. He also came highly recommended for the rank of Epis, but again, being a non-summit member, I was forced to deny him his promotion. Once again, under advisement from DGM Mairin, I would like to recommend Anshar be awarded the Grand Cross. After a review of his past achievements, it has come to my attention that Anshar has done everything from building and maintaining websites, to serving as AED, to submitting works to the Dark Voice. It is my wish that he be awarded this honor due to his fine, upstanding work to his House and Clan.
