There are two staff cartoonists, both anonymous, who go by the pseudonyms "Elo Cutor" and "Eric S. Mildew." Beric'ht is an affiliate of the Talossan Press Association.
The paper was founded on 14 Mar 2014/XXXV with a staff of three. It publishes a new issue every other Sunday morning. It has been published regularly since its founding.

The paper is not only the first Talossan newspaper to publish on a regular schedule since the demise of Støtanneu, but also the first instance of any Talossan media successfully running a paid advertising service.
