Subject: [OWBN-Council] [PROPOSAL] Addition of the Black Cross (for Ventrue-Antitribu) to the Societies & Orders of the Ventrue
To: OWBN Council List <owbn-council@owbn.net>
Cc: ventruecoords@googlegroups.com
OWbN's Coordinator Bylaws, section 3.C.iii. state: "Genre Coordinators must pass before Council any plot, enforced policy, R&U named characters, or binding edict they wish to use which they can reasonably expect to affect multiple chronicles and these proposals need not be seconded, but go immediately into discussion."
Proposal:
The Ventrue Coordinator is proposing the immediate addition of the Black Cross, an order of Antitribu Ventrue, to be added to the "Societies & Orders of the Ventrue" Document.
The description of the Black Cross (google doc) as well as the new section heading can be found at the following link:
Supporting Statements
The Black Cross was a canon group of Ventrue from the Dark Ages who spread the power and rule of Hardestadt throughout the Holy Roman Empire, and into Hungary and the Middle-East. This group has been updated and brought into the modern nights as one of two groups (the other proposal will be here shortly) available for Ventrue-Antitribu players. This is the first of several props aimed at increasing the resources available to Ventrue-Antitribu players and Storytellers.
This document had been posted to the OWbN Scepter-OOC Googlegroup for a significant amount of time, and I would like to thank everyone whose feedback contributed to making this doc a great resource for the Antitribu.
As a note, I do recognize that by not including both of the new Orders/Societies for the Antitribu, more Council voting-bureaucracy will be created, however, I believe that keeping these props separate will keep the feedback as concise as possible to the subject-matter.
Thank you,
- Brian Orlando
Ventrue Coordinator

It is now closed.
For those of you who followed the instructions provided by myself and the OWBN Archivist, thank you! For those who didn't, but still submitted the information, thanks...now I have to drink. :D For those 37 Chronicles who did not submit information...I'm not going to be looking at the details of the census until after Midwinter...so it would behoove you to submit it while I'm not paying attention and before we go to Council over it. Those of you who have asked for a slight extension have earned a week.
To the 14 PCs made between the discussion period of the R&U change and the final vote...I'm disappointed.
The current count of Tremere PCs is 529. The current count of Tremere NPCs is 160. WIth 94 chronicles reporting, that means every game that has reported averages 7 Tremere on file.
The approval process for new Tremere is currently being set up.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
After extending the Grandfathering period for a week, there is still nearly half of OWBN that has not responded to it. That is very potentially a lot of players whose characters will soon not be valid for play. The following chronicles are those that HAVE responded. If you do not see the name of your chronicle below then I have No response from your staff regarding the Assamite Sorcerer PCs or NPCs for your game, per the grandfathering period.
You have until Midnight on Friday January 25th, 2013. Please, please, get this done.
-Brad
