Imperial Intel

• Due to the great activity and outpouring of ideas, House Imperium is proud to announce its working motto; Death Before Dishonor (Mors Ante Ignobiles).

• Odd occurences, disappearances, and assassinations have been documented throughout the Cocytus System. Activity has been contained to Ptolomea and Caina. Imperial security forces and Intelligence has so far released no statements and assure the populace all rumors and speculation are unfounded. To further this end, Imperial officers and military assets have been mobilized to investigate.

• Rumor has it that the Emperor himself has signed off on the new ranks of nobility within the Empire and the associated command assignments of the new Imperial officers. More to follow after the events on Ptolomea are contained.

• With the alignment of the new Imperial Houses, Imperium has officially taken control of key facilities across the Cocytus System. The new headquarters has yet to be publically announced however, Aedile Zagro Fenn has removed himself with his honor guard to the space station Dynasty to oversea current operations.

Final Word

April has been a very busy month in terms of competitions at the Clan level and a myriad of DJB wide events are ongoing. There are big things in the works that will see drastic changes to Orders and alignment, however, the exact manner in which this will be rolled out is unclear. It appears the DJB will be aligning closer to Star Wars canon to better attract new membership due to the influx of interest with the upcoming movies. Also, possession system is being ramped up. Looking forward to May as a time for internal development for House Imperium and finalizing the nobility system, new HQ, and other fictional aspects. If anyone has any suggestions please feel free to let me know.
