It's a thing I've been thinking about for a while, because it's a difficult decision.
The Korps has been a part of my life for the better part of 5 years now. It gave me direction, got me writing again, introduced me to so many of the people I care about, and was the first time that I can remember feeling really part of something. KDARC is my baby, a project that I poured years into, that became a collaborative project as well, and let me fill the niche of 'really weird arcane bullshit' in a world where superheroes were everywhere but 'magic' really wasn't. I became very close to Karen, and my loyalty to her is second to none.
But five years is a long time, and the korps grew as much as I did. Mostly for the better, some for the worse, but overall outwards in a way that doesn't fit into either category. The community is massive now by comparison, and as my own life has gotten busier I've fallen quite far behind. KDARC is well-known and its iconography a bit ubitquitous, but as the setting leans real hard on the 'cape kink' these days, it's hard to find a foothold for the writing I want to do with my little corner of the setting.
While I'm not leaving or anything, it's not the center of my life, and as cohost quickly becomes the center of my clade's writing projects, I want the name to reflect all of us, and not be beholden to someone else's work. DARC has iterated far beyond the korps, but that's a hard handle to grab anywhere and we want CERES in our name. We're likely not changing our twitter, because who gives a shit what happens there anymore?
I have some names I'm working around the clade to get opinions of, and we'll say something on here before it happens, but I wanted to get ahead of it and put this out there so it's not a sudden shock when the time does come.
