Reports


Reporting Schedule

All Canton pursuivants must report to Their Baronial pursuivant on or before January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1.

All Shire pursuivants, Senior Staff Heralds and Heralds & pursuivants-at-large must report to the Trillium Herald on or before January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1.

All Baronial pursuivants must report to the Trillium Herald on or before January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15.

Failure to report in two consecutive quarters or missing your Domesday can be grounds for removal from the Warrant List.

Courtesy copies of local group reports should be given to your Seneschal (this is an absolute requirement for pre-incipient/incipient groups).  If you are going to be late with a report, you need to contact the person you report to (before the deadline!) and ask for an extension. 

What Must A Report Include?

What group or office you are reporting for
The date (with the real year, not Anno Societatis)
Your name
Your address
Your phone number
Your email address (if you have one)
What names/devices submitted locally that quarter
What awards received locally that quarter
What activities you have performed that quarter
Any deputies you have needing warranting
Any questions you have for the Trillium Herald

That's it. It's that simple.
Your report could be one page, or if you are particularly active, two or three. If you miss reports, or are chronically late, you might have your warrant revoked by the kingdom herald. This looks bad on yourself and your group. If you find you cannot report on time, tell the Kingdom Herald why.

Remember, this part of your job only takes half an hour to do every three months; if you cannot keep the lines of communication open between your group and the Kingdom, you may not be fulfilling your other duties, and you should seek someone else to take on your office.
