The Scimitar of Lord Hoth is a competition created for the members of Clan Odan-Urr, as a way for the Summit to recognize and reward the members who were the most active in the Clan over the course of an entire year. It was designed to promote all forms of activity in the club and give the members a fun way to compete with each other.
At the end of the year, the Scimitar and its holder's title is awarded to the most active member in Odan-Urr, with who it remains with for the following year. They are able to display and fictional use the physical Scimitar on their person. This honorary title is the “Champion of Odan-Urr” and the Scimitar design and artwork were created by Ozosi Vym. Both the title and the sword are fictional in nature and will not appear on their dossier. Also, the sword can only be used in a ceremonial nature in any fiction written by that year’s champion. It can not be used in any fictional combat situation, especially in the ACC.
Competition Details and Purpose
The Scimitar competition was created by Edgar Drachen with the help of Yuki Suoh aka Zoso Quinn in 2017 to find a way to not only reward the members of House Hoth but also promote all the different types of activities the DJB as a club offers to them. The intent of this competition was to enable members to do anything the club offers with as little bias as possible and still have a fair chance at becoming the overall Champion and the wielder of the Scimitar.
This competition is broken into two parts -
- The Annual Champion - The one earns the Title and the Scimitar for the following year.
- The Monthly winner - Those who are selected as winners for a specific month.
The competition point system was only changed twice thus far, once to add Novae for the GJW XII and when the 2018 competition was started. This was to increase points for lesser-used activities and bring fiction/art activities more in line with gaming activities. Future changes should be minimal and only used to add new activities the current setup doesn’t account for and to correct any imbalances between activities.
Rules
There are some rules that are not subject to change:
- The Consul and Proconsul are not eligible to earn points or win the competition. If a sitting CON or PCON resigns their position they then will start earning points as of that day.
- Any New member by joining the Clan will only have their points counted from the day they entered the Clan.
- No one from outside the Clan may earn Scimitar Points
- Current points standings are to be displayed on the Clan Odan-Urr Holocron for member reference.
- Grading by the CON and PCON will be finished at the beginning of the following month, and winners will be announced in the Clan report on the 5th.
The creation of the Scimitar
Following the establishment of House Hoth’s home on Solyiat, the world’s most skilled bladesmiths were commissioned by Edgar Drachen and Yuki Suoh to forge a new weapon. Rather than a sword intended wholly for war, it was to instead serve as a symbol to the House and those who held it. Its meaning was to serve both as a means to honor the House’s patron along those who lost their lives in the New Tython atrocity.
The Scimitar is 101cm overall with a blade length of 85cm. Forged from a combination of materials both from the Clan’s lost homeworld and their new base of operations. The primary materials of its core and hilt were formed from metals taken from the now destroyed Fort Pernicar, while the durasteel exterior of the blade was formed from metals native to Solyiat.
At the base of the blade itself, the symbol of Hoth has been branded to the metal. This has been further decorated with sapphires taken from New Tython and rubies recovered from across Solyiat. These serve as its sole ornamentation.
Imbued with the light side, the Scimitar of Lord Hoth bathes its wielder in a healing aura and vibrates when in close proximity to Dark Jedi.
History of the Scimitar
The role of the Scimitar itself was largely ceremonial and served as a symbol of unity and a prize in the honorific competitions within House Hoth. This was intended to foster good relations and unity between the disparate groups which had survived New Tython and the varied factions who had come to join the House in its war against the Brotherhood. This was only further emphasized as the first two victors of such competitions consisted of an outsider who had sworn himself to the Clan’s service and a Mandalorian of a clan who had come to ally themselves with the Jedi.

Notes
- The First Scimitar competition was created in February 2017 and therefore only ran for 11 months in that year.
- When House Hoth was disbanded in July 2019 the competition was continued under House Sunrider for the remaining months of 2019.
- The Scimitar competition is now open to the entire Clan
