Call For Info: Aquillas

The clan known as Aquillas was dissolved in February of 2000. It was ultimately chosen for removal due to its low numbers. Members were asked to join other clans or go Rogue.

What I'm looking for is the following information. If you know where I can find an old roster archive, that'd be the best.

CON: Arania Lawakiro Palpatine (?)
PCON:

House Nuitari (Sith)
QUA:
AED:

House Borealis (Obelisk)
QUA:
AED:

House Senryaku (Krath)
QUA: Kaine Mandaala
AED: Aragorn (?)

Well, I can't exactly help you specifically, but I do know this. If you go on the rosters each roster has its own unit id. Like, Clan Plagueis is Unit 190. Well, I was punching random numbers in last week and I happen to find the old Clan Exar Kun roster. Since I found that one, I'm sure that this clan is on there somewhere... possibly... :?

That's a great lead for CEK and CSK, though I think Aquillas might be too old. I'll have to check it out.

your best bet is looking at the excel rosters in the old dark voices

Ah - good call Khobai.

[Edit] I just checked the DV archive. When Aquillas was dissolved there were no DV's released for months. When they were released again they had no rosters included!

I remember seeing a site that had many versions of a lot of old EH/DB sites archived for some reason. I'm hoping someone has a link to that.

Hey Kaine,

It was always my belief that I was the very last Consul of the officially constituted Clan. Shortly before the Clan dissolved, Danrik, who was Consul of Aquillas, invited me to serve as ProConsul. After Danrik's retirement, I was expecting to be elevated to Consul and to try to turn the Clan around (I had only been there a very short time). However, I remember Thedek coming to me, telling me he was appointing me Consul and then saying that he was also dissolving the Clan. Hahaha.

Rather sad really but that's how I remember it. Unfortunately, I do not have any proof of that and my memory may be off - it has been so long. I am absolutely certain that Danrik was CON and I was PCON at some point. Whether or not we were the last, I'm not sure but I always believed that it was so. I do remember you if that helps :P

I tried looking through old web archives but I haven't been able to find anything to confirm my story or reveal to us the truth. Maybe someone remembers. I could try to contact Danrik too.

I know that Zlar Kahn was a CON of Aquillas at one point. Mav was either an AED or QUA of Senryaku. Uh...yeah. :P

Thedek might have those records, still. *MIGHT*

Sweet. I remember Arania being CON mostly because I was QUA of Sen, but the end of the Clan was very patchy.

Thedek might have those records, still.  *MIGHT*



I'll have to bug Thedek... It's always a fun thing! :)

It would be really nice to find those records. I hope Thedek still has them. I vividly remember Danrik as CON and myself as PCON but....who knows? My memory is pretty weird.

I suggesr using Archive.org ;-)

I think thats the website you were thinking of. Though, you'll be lucky if you can get rosters :P

Wow - that site is awesome. Unfortunately the only old DB site that works is in late 1999. And like you hinted, the rosters don't quite work right from that site. I found a link to an old Aquillas/Senryaku site - which I think was mine - but it wasn't archived.

It's amazing... with how cheesy the EH site used to look, it's a wonder anyone stayed around. :D

Kaine, I found an old Borealis site. Wayyyy old

No information, however. :-(

I can assist with some of this. At the time of dissolution; Kaine was QUA of Senryaku, I was AED of Senryaku (different name, then). I also seem to remember that Danrik was CON and Arania was PCON. I dont remember much of the other summits, since it was, as you say, a loooong time ago.

I have fortunately found a way to get in touch with Danrik. He might still remember or have some record. I'll let you know what he says.

Hmmm no response...

I guess he doesn't remember me :-(

I had a look around some sites from a google search and found this: http://members.fortunecity.com/string5259/nl/nl-61/xo_db.htm If you use 'Find' and search Aquillas you will see an ID line fore DJK Despot, the then AED of Borealis. The Date above it says December 20th 1999.

I also found a random ID line in some EH stuff from 2002. http://www.emperorshammer.org/news/january_2002.htm has GRD ShadowHawk (Sith)/Nuitari of Aquillas (IWATS Core, 15th Jan 2000) featured.

I also found the Borealis website. I don't know how old it is, but it has a different AED. Someone called Devin Bron. http://members.fortunecity.com/devinbron/home.html

I found some EH dudes profile, and ex Commander of Hurricane Squadron in Nuitari. Went by the name Keiran Idanian. http://www.angelfire.com/pa4/RECONmanual/roinpr.html

Exerpt:

Kaek was the last Consul of Clan Aquillas. He had obeyed the orders of Grand Master Thedek and disbanded the Clan. He really had no choice. When a Grand Master is demanding something, you tend to give in. And while they had abandoned the Clan facilities, there were some things that were never lost. New groups within the Brotherhood claimed kinship with the lost Clan of Aquillas. They believed they possessed the secrets of Aquillas. Some of them had great knowledge of the Clan, but none of them had complete access to the reality of the ancient Clan. Kaek, as the last Consul, still retained it. And he was glad he had.

I remember all those names. :) Thanks for the info/research.

By the way - here's what I was doing with that info:

That message board post was from me so it's not exactly an impartial source :P

I was CON for, at most, a day....so....yeah...we just need to either confirm that or deny that.
