Introduction

Howdy folks! It's that time again, and this time I'm late :O le gasp

Don't worry, though. I've passed all my exams (for now) and am free for the summer. A lot of things need to be done this summer, some backlogging as well (to my shame, but it is to be expected from time to time).

So let's see what we’ve been doing lately.

Shout outs

Those that have left

First off I would like to thank two individuals for their work in the office: Selika Roh and Seyda Norith. They had been my Magistrates for the better part of the my first year as Herald and are both awesome individuals. I would also like to congratulate Seyda on her Steel Cross once more. Thank you both for your hard work for the Club. You have left some pretty big shoes to fill. :)

The arrivals

That being said, two new Magistrates have been selected from the Ranks: Zehsaa Hysh and Rian Taldrya. Zehsaa is a profound artist with many skills and talents, much like Rian. They are both versed in 3D design which will bring somewhat of a fresh feel to our graphics. Stay tuned and keep an eye on these two, because I know they’ll do great. :)

Oh! Sendin’ out a call!

June release!

As before, let’s pull the rabbit out of the hat first. New items for your dossiers are here ;)

Herald survey - reminder!

Everyone loves surveys! Not really, but this one is necessary.

We've created a survey that you can fill in and, hopefully, influence what way future graphics in the Club move forward. We're looking for honest opinions, so type in anything you can think of that you consider important.

Ask the Herald

Featured Question

Tisto asks: #AskTheHerald How much say do you get in possessions or are you just drawing them and getting no input

Generally speaking the DC functions as a team and we all work together on projects. That being said, some have the executive power that Pravus gives them, to decide and process certain information or decisions. For my part I have complete power regarding graphics, where I only need to ask permission or advice very rarely from the Senechal, Justicar and GM/DGM. That being said the process of working on Possessions images is completely left to me and my staff, however the process of introduction items lies solely on Evant. He approves them. My only role, technically, is to make the graphics, however we all pull our weight in every aspect: everyone suggests items and everyone can, also, help out with streamlining those items in the system.

Tisto asked: #AskTheHerald will the heralds office ever release more possessions spoilers?

Likely, yes. We’ll see in the future. But you can expect more teasers later on.

---

Tisto asks: #AskTheHerald what is your favorite thing to draw

Human faces and anatomy. Humans are very complex and fun to draw.

---

Tisto asks: #AskTheHerald if you could draw any ship for Morgan What would it be?

The Godless Matron, which is a Lucrehulk-class battleship.

---

Alethia asks: #AskTheHerald What's Vorsa up to these days?

Mostly recovering, both physically and mentally, trying to make sense of this new world where, once again, everything has been turned on its head for her. But mostly she’s trying to help her Clan survive.

---

Tisto asks: #AskTheHerald who is your favorite Odanite?

I don’t have favorites. All Odanites are my friends and comrades.

---

Lex asks: #AsktheHerald What's your 'actual' job?

I’m a part time graphics designer and web designer for small firms.

---

Sildrin asks: #AskTheHerald will there be any fictional updates sooner or later?

I hope until my next report I will have something juicy for you guys :)

---

Zakath asks: #AsktheHerald when will we have another Sketch Something comp? Would like to try my hand at it again, especially now that I'm trying my hand at sketching Zakath facing out.

Probably August or September.

---

Dru asks: #asktheherald are there any plans to release blunt weapons for the weapon selector? Other than staffs and the like :P

There is a plan to diversify the weapons we put into the system. Some categories are sorely lacking. I hope to fix that soon.

---

Lexic asks: #AsktheHerald If someone requests a custom lightsaber or weapon, could you suggest an easy and non-artist friendly way to describe and label certain styles that things like lightsaber hilts, weapon aesthetics, such as paint or carvings, that we see on these weapons? Or is this entirely doable?

To be honest, the best way you can help us with custom sabers is if your draw your own design on paper. It can be very simple squares and rectangles with descriptive text (readable descriptive text mind you :P)

---

Andrelious asks: #asktheherald Do the Aurebesh staff letterings only apply for current DC jobs?

Any current or former holders of the current DC/Staff positions that have required time in the position.

Get get the gang back together! Keep watching over
