Abbot/Abbess

Head of the Order. The ultimate authority on all things dealing with Order business, especially policy and domestic issues. Healer, Teacher, and Scholar.

Elders

OOC Leadership and Responsibilities

The Abbot/Abbess, Abbey Champion, and Badgermother work together jointly to take care of IC and OOC issues. OOCly, the Abbey Champion and Badgermother both have equal rank, but the Abbot/Abbess has the final say on matters pertaining to the IC and OOC running of the group.

• They are in charge of maintaining Redwall's adherance to its own rules, and the rules of the MUCK.
• They are required to connect at least two hours per week.
• They are expected to RP regularly, as well as assist each other in planning events and TPs for Redwall.
• If OOC issues come up, and they are unable to fulfill the connection requirements, they must let the other two know.

These three positions are huge responsibilities, both IC and OOC. If someone is picked for the job, they must hold up their end of things, or they will lose the position. Remember that anyone holding these positions answers to Otter as well as the general populous of Redwall. He giveth and he taketh away...

The other Elders are below the three listed above, but are all of equal rank with each other.

• They must connect and roleplay at least once every two weeks. Please note that this means roleplaying with Redwall's populace, not each other. They are expected to be seen in public.
• They are in charge of assisting others, especially new members, with their roleplay if there is need, and they are in charge of building and encouraging roleplay in Redwall.
• They must organize and carry out one event every six months, OR, one TP every year.
• If there is some reason that they cannot fullfill their responsibilities, they must let the other elders, as well as the Abbot/Abbess, Badgermother, and Champion know.
• If someone fails to hold up their responsibilities, they risk losing the position. This decision is made by the Abbot/Abbess, Badgermother, and Champion.

In addition to the IC leadership, there are two purely OOC positions.

• Manager -- This person does exactly what the title indicates in that they manage the OOC running and organization of the skills lists, the upkeep of the rooms within Redwall itself, and make sure that OOC rooms and objects are kept clear from the IC area of Redwall.
• RP Instructor -- This person is in charge of helping the newer members to the MUCK and Redwall Abbey. They will hold OOC classes on roleplay topics such as speech, combat, adding depth to characters, and healing, among others. While this is a Redwall position and our goal is to aid Redwallers, these classes will be open to anyone on the MUCK who would like to participate. The RP Instructor may invite others to help out with certain topics, such as commands or creating villains.

The leadership will hold monthly meetings to discuss IC and OOC issues regarding the group.

• Once again. The leadership of Redwall is expected to roleplay regularly, and in public. Therefore they should strive to avoid long periods of dormancy in private rooms, or excessive amounts of private RP. In keeping with this, all Elders are required to have the radio active in their personal dormitories. We want to see that you are indeed RPing. This also helps to make sure that all the rules of the MUCK are being adhered to.
