Greetings Battleteam Zirael and Clan Odan-Urr. Knight Xolarin here to bring you a few brief updates on Zirael and remind you of some goings-on in our area. I do not have a fiction piece this month, but I am hoping to improve upon that another time.

Important News

New graphics are here, yay! A big thank you to the Vyr and Esca for their fantastic work. I am so pleased to have these in this report and able to use them elsewhere officially.

As usual, we have a couple stars in the group. Neophyte Hiset Tval and Acolyte Ka Tarvitz continue to impress with their Shadow Academy work and competition/event particitpation. I am proud of these folks and look forward to seeing how far they go.

A few newcomers since my last report:

• Apprentice Serto Kastra
• Novice Lixen
• Neophyte Hiset
• Recruit Grenovo

Projects

The Zirael Wiki page is mostly complete now with a fresh logo and some content reorganized and filled out. It’s looking good, but I would always take suggestions. And as always, as we build the lore for Zirael and COU, things will change. And anyone in COU can be a part of it - just ask!

Competitions are always available, so check out the list below. One competition ran with 5 subscribers but no submissions - let’s not have that happen again. Even us newcomers need to get involved in these things. But look for some more Zirael-centric competitions and fictions coming up. After all, I need your help in developing our little neck of the woods.

Competitions and Brotherhood News

Below are a few news items and competitions of note. There have been a LOT of leadership changes and my fine colleague Commander Alethia Archenksova in House Satele Shan did a great job summarizing these in her latest QUA report.

• New Regent Report regarding possessions
• Monthly COU Fictions - get your writing on here every month (hop to it, we had very few to no submissions the last couple months)
• The Undertaking - Wiki competitions, extended and they end in just a couple days!
• Gaming is Life 2 - COU event by Edgar
• Winner Takes All - A gaming event run by Zirael’s own Tarvitz!
• Our new Consul’s report is coming soon - stay tuned!

There is so much more to report on but I’ll stop there for this report. Just stay tuned to the Brotherhood website and to our Clan and Battleteam email lists for updates and key announcements!

TL;DR

• Graphics YAY
• Leadership Changes
• Zirael Members Rock
• Monthly COU Fiction Competitions are a must!
