As the dust settled, the heavy durasteel doors of the Praxeum slid open. Fearful of the horrors that forced them to take shelter in the temple, the locals hesitantly peered out, squinting as the late afternoon sun was too much for their dilated pupils. Rubbing their eyes in an attempt to unblur their vision, they made their way out onto the gray stone portico. Before them, the Knights of Urr stood tired and bruised but appeared as illuminated figures against the intense golden light from the setting Aurek.
Odanites,
In this report, I throw together a Post-War Fiction, brag about how well you did in the war, entice you to stick around with some future initiatives, and bribe you with awards. You will even get a KOTOR Teaser Trailer if you scroll all the way to the bottom! So without further adieu, I bring you the news...
Well the results are in, and I have to say that I am greatly impressed by the amount of you that came out to participate in GJW XV!
Looking at Bubba's report, we had 65% participation in Phase I, 54% in Phase 2 and 50% in the Event Long. This is a great showing by COU and will put us in great standing in the next RoS if we keep this up.
We dropped down to 5th with a score of 2774.73, but we had the 2nd highest percentage of participants, so it's not our placement in the GJW that I'd like to highlight. It's your efforts that put us on the board.
I'm seeing a lot of Nova and top 10 finishes all around, plus our Clan Run-On placed third! Woo!
We had a total of 50 placements out of 222 submissions and took home 2 Gold, 2 Silver and 14 Bronze for a total of 18 Nova and our high scorer for this event was Arch!
Thank you to all who participated and placed during this event!
If you'd like to know your individual scores, DM me and I'll share.
Again, great work everybody!

From 8/9 to 8/23 there’s a small post war event going on. It has fiction, graphic, game and a few puzzles. If you’re interested CLICK ME to see the competition details.
With our newly acquired Ascendant Crystal Engine Array, we’ll need a ship to upgrade with it. We’ll be going over our fleet to see what we could downsize, increase or eliminate completely to make room for new things. Our last ship upgrade was the ODN Peacekeeper which was featured in the GJW XV Run-On, and many of you have already mentioned getting the Nebula-class Star Destroyer that you saw in the last Regent Report, so, if you have any other ships in mind or want to cast your vote for another large capital ship, you know where to find us.
Also, with Yuki and Elyon in the Consular Conclave and Essik and A’lora in the Guardian Corps, there will be a few big things, development things, that they’ll be churning out very soon. I won’t spoil anything yet, they’re really excited for it, so I’ll just leave you with two images they’ve chosen... Image 1 and Image 2.
Clan wise, we’ll be doing some smaller missions that tie into the greater Clan storyline and have a joint event with Arcona slated for the end of the year so be on the lookout for updates in subsequent reports.
Way back to this report, I outlined some initiatives that I wanted to execute. I am of course talking about ‘strengthening group gaming through the pub-side SWTOR guild and Minecraft server’. Since we’d had a war going on and the post-aftermath recovery, we’ve mostly down low-key gaming to get back into the swing of things. But now that its August, its time to do this properly. I’ll have a dedicated Proconsul report detailing everything but for now I wanted to generally state what will be going on.
Principally, I want to form a SWTOR Pub team that meets up regularly with some flexibility for drop-ins and outs (to account for real life). In guilds, this is a common occurrence and it really builds a lot of close friendships across all lanes of a club. It will require some time commitments and some flexibility on when they run, but it will be a TON of fun. Depending on interest the two teams I want to form are a GSF Squadron team and a SWTOR Ground team (think flashpoints, world bosses, operations, etc.)
If you are interested in that, please fill out this form. This is not limited to a specific clan but to anyone with pub players who wants to really use them.
Next, its time we get back into making wonderful things in minecraft. We left off where several of us had made ourselves homes, other general use buildings, and we have a subway system connecting them together! I plan to unleash another minecraft competition out soon but till then, if you have minecraft, come join us for some literal world building goodness! Dm Revak Kur for access details or pester me and I’ll pester him!
Lastly, a reminder to come join our latest roleplay called ‘Rocks and Lightsabers’! It is a lot of fun and there are plenty of shenanigans to be had. You can join the roleplay at any time. Just give Aura a dm and she’ll add you to our roleplay session
This Sunday, August 7th at 4pm EST, we’ll be hosting another Minecraft event! Click the Join button at the top of the server to join us in chat, then come build with us.

Nothing new due to the Great Jedi War taking precedent. Here are the most recent reports if you want a refresher from where we left off.
Essik Asks: “What is the best book you’ve read this year?.”
Aura: “I sadly haven't finished a book this year. I need to get on that. I want to finally finish this one though (Gravity’s Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon).”
Revak: “I really enjoyed the light hearted tone of what could otherwise be a very uninteresting topic (Structures: Or Why things Don’t Fall Down by J. E. Gordon).”
KOTOR: EPISODE ONE - THE SPIRE Teaser Trailer
If you ever have any questions or would like to tell us how crappy we are as people, feel free to contact Aura or myself. Until next time, may the Force guide you.
