(Thanks to Kazmiri of Belgium for the pretty report header!)

Welcome to the second of many Taldryan Rollmaster reports! This week, Howie tells you about the progress of the Journeymen, makes some excuses, and talks about competitions.

So it’s been forever since I last did one of these – and I promise you, the weekly reports actually begin now.

The biggest news so far is that I’m now the Clan Rollmaster rather than an Independent House one. So yay Clan Taldryan. My job description will remain the same (and it's to pester all of you).

I would also like to welcome Apprentice sir bru and Novice Rossi to Clan Taldryan! I hope they enjoy their time here.

Journeymen (and woman) progress

Here are some notable accomplishments of our clan's journeymen in the past week:

• Novice Rossi: Promoted to Novice! Essentials 1: History, Essentials 2: Departments, Combat Tactics I, Essentials 3: Paths & Orders, Essentials 4: Ranks, and Essentials 5: Organization Shadow Academy Courses

• Jedi Hunter Armags: 33 Clusters of Fire.

• Jedi Hunter Aiden Dru: Promoted to Jedi Hunter! Two Crescents with Emerald Star, two Crescents with Sapphire Star, Runon Studies, Combat Tactics II, and Philosophy I Shadow Academy Courses

• Dark Jedi Knight Kenath Zoron: Promoted to Dark Jedi Knight! 33 Clusters of Fire, Crescent with Emerald Star

Congratulations to all for their hard work!

Howie kinda sucks

I have a shiny new job (and a new home, that is now filled with completed IKEA furniture) – so my IRC presence has diminished, and I probably haven’t been pestering the masters of Taldryan as much as I should/they probably need (or don’t, but they’ll be pestered regardless), so for that – I apologize. To that end, things should get better for me time wise, now that I'm not spending my after-work hours building furntiture and schlepping from big box store to big box store.

As for the Master-Student pairings in Taldryan? For those members that are interested in becoming masters (and haven't contacted me yet), please email me or catch me on IRC and I will add you to the list for the future.

PS: Do all the things!
