Odanites,

Like I promised you all last month, this report is packed full of stuff so use the bathroom now, grab a drink and get comfy because, without further adieu, I bring you the news...

Rite of Supremacy: Escalation Results!

What a RoS huh? Those new factions really added a new element to the typical Clan V Clan format we are used to. I’m pretty happy with the effort you put in, but the main thing is that you came out and had some fun. Your contributions landed us 4th place, you earned yourselves a ton of credits and gave us this fancy new Kyber-Powered Location Triangulation System... hmm, wonder if it’ll fit on a shuttle...

Now it’s time to give a shout-out to our

• Nova winners: Arch, Jafits, Aura, Ejoni, Takota, Essik, V’yr, and Turel!

• And to our Full Binners: Jafits, Aura, Ira, Turel, Essik, Arch, Elyon, and Creon!

• And to the Top 10’ers: Arch, Jafits, and Aura for the Harmonists, Essik for the Expansionists, and Ryan for the Restorers!

Crunching the Numbers: RoS Edition

At the time of the RoS our Roster stood at 42 members. Of that, we had 29 participants (69%). Our 29 participants cleared 139 bins with a total of 252 competitions or nearly 18% of the submissions. 21% placed in the top 10 for their factions, 31% had full bin participation and 31% took home at least one Nova. I don’t have the Fire or Earth Cluster totals (it’s a lot, you all did fantastic) but we farmed 122 Clusters of Graphite and 128 Clusters of Ice!

If you would like your individual scores, I have them, simply message me on Telegram.

Give yourselves a round of applause, nah better yet, take a shot for the work you all put in.

A New Look

If you're like me, which may not be a good thing, but if you are then you're a fan of Star Wars. It might just be why you're here. Well, with that comes such a fondness of the lore attached to this franchise that we fight over it, dump countless dollars into it, and have devoted so much time into it, that it might as well be a second job. Pretty much the same with the Club, minus the money part, right? I've been listening to a lot of feedback. A lot of you are burned out. You feel stuck playing the same character. The ideas don't flow like they used to. We get it. That's why it's time to shake things up again.

We are currently working on a new House system. With this new system, you'll be able to play the character you've always wanted to experiment with or the one that feels right, in a way that will foster more creativity and encourage you to explore new playstyles. Want to play as an NFU Medic? Farmer? Diplomat? Researcher? Ewok? You can. I mean, you always could, but with what we are working on, you'll feel like you belong. Want to continue playing as an ass-kicking Jedi, Mercenary, Soldier, Spy, or Smuggler? You'll fit right in. We are looking to incorporate as many of your individual playstyles into this system. Let me show you what I mean.

• The Consular Conclave- Will provide a place for our non-combat, peaceful, and Consular Class members to reside. Operating from the Praxeum, Odan-Urr's center of learning and study, and Haven Medical Station, they will have a similar structure and purpose as the Jedi Service Corps. They will provide medical care to villagers or search for ancient artifacts. Broker talks between large governments and small landowners. They will maintain the archives, train younglings, and tend to the fields. If you’ve seen your share of battle, then relax by our exotic gardens. You are the backbone of Odan-Urr.

• Guardian Corps- Will provide a place for the more combat-oriented Guardian, Mercenary, and Soldier Class members to ignite their lightsabers or charge their chambers and headfirst into battle. The Corps will be the structured military arm of the Clan, much like the Republic Military in Star Wars canon. These are the elites. Made up of the best pilots, Generals, Admirals, tacticians, weapons masters, and combat experts in the galaxy, they will get the job done and then some. Are you feeling a little crafty? Spend some time in the forge crafting weapons and armor. Or in the garage, figuring out where that squealing noise in your tank is coming from. If it shoots or blows things up, they handle it. You are Odan-Urr’s big stick.

• The Sentinel Network- Will be for Members who seek to play as a Sentinel Class, who are more inclined to use stealth to accomplish a mission or want to be the guardians of the Council. They hear all and see all. If a target moves, they know about it. They have contacts in every corner of every back alley, cantina, "warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse, and doghouse in that area." Laying low, often living ordinary lives to better blend into their surroundings, they play a crucial role in maintaining the stability of a region. You are the eyes and ears of Odan-Urr.

Both IC and OOC these units will use teamwork to keep Odan-Urr moving forward. Each will have their own storyline but will come together during large Clan events and even compete against each other for bragging rights during House feuds.

Now, I've included a SURVEY to gauge interest and help us assign you a House based on your responses. The plan currently is to open the Consulars and the Guardians first. Then, if there is enough interest and willing leaders, we will push towards opening the Sentinels. To clarify, this structure does not mean you have to be aligned with the same class as the House. You are still free to pick and play however you wish.

As always, you can always reach out to me or anyone else on the Summit if you have any questions or concerns about this. We await your responses.

2021 Scimitar of Lord Hoth July results!

It’s that time of the month again… where we announce the winner of the coveted Scimitar of Lord Hoth, as well as list the runners up. All of whom put a lot of work into this last month and we would like to both thank and congratulate you for your efforts. We had 26 participants for the month of July! If you are chasing the number one spot or still want to get your name on the board, there is still time left on this year-long competition series.

Let's give a round of applause for Aura Ta’var, our July Scimitar winner!

If you’re curious where your CON and PCON fall, well here you go… Revak - 1156.5 and Turel - 794.5!

Every month we count all of your Crescents, Clusters, PoBs, Competitions, events run, ACC matches completed, scrolls, and SA activity then calculate the point values using our handy Scimitar of Hoth Point Rules sheet. With something that I can only assume was spawned from pure Dark Side energy, we are able to track all of your scores and maintain a running total of your points through the year. Every January, after we tally up the December results, we then present the member with the highest point total, the Scimitar of Lord Hoth! So the only thing you need to do is just the normal stuff on the site you’d normally do and we’ll take care of the rest. It’s super easy, barely an inconvenience.

As always, you can view the Current Scimitar Standings anytime day or night, on our Clan Holocron!

AskRevakTurel

Arch Asks: “We haven't had a chance to dig into the interpersonal/philosophical/political dynamics of the Council in a while. How do the Revak and Turel characters view their roles and how are they adjusting to leading the rest of us?.”

Turel: “My headcanon is Turel's return to council duty was low-key Vorsas doing to get him out of the house.”

Revak: “Revak has a strong sense of duty so taking on the role isn't too bad for him. He feels that since he was given the opportunity, it's his duty to take what Aura made before him and keep it going forward. Adjustment-wise, no soon after he cleaned up all the papers and empty sushi containers, a war broke out so he had to "nut up or shut up." We'll see how he does now that everything is settled.``

Aura Asks: “Any cool stories coming up for the clan? Should I get Aura's lightsaber sharpened?”

Turel: “Actually there will be some opportunities for non-saber activities in character.”

If you’ve made it this far, I’d like to thank you for reading this report as well as thank you for the effort you’ve put into the RoS and we look forward to seeing the feedback for the proposed Houses. If you ever have any questions or would like to tell us how crappy we are as people, feel free to contact Turel or me. Until next time, may the Force guide you.
