Council Rules

In the event that staff opens up the Council of Nine to PC seat holders the following rules and policies apply.

Being a seat holder is a privilege, not a right, and you may be stripped of your seat at staff discretion.

A mage must have a Status (background) stat of at least 4 to hold a council seat.

Council Members are expected to be storytellers. They are expected to run events and PrPs for the sphere outside of the scheduled plot times staff runs.

Council members are expected to be active players. Idling out vacates the seat. If the character is moved to the roster, they are not an active council member. Any council member that is chronically AFK and unresponsive will be stripped of their position.

Any ruling the council makes must be approved by staff before any announcement is made.

Council Members will be re-evaluated on a yearly basis. Ideally, a player may only hold a seat of 1 year, but we realize that isn't always feasible given game population.

Loss of Status (background) will occur if a character has to be removed from the council by staff. Not fullfilling your IC duties will result in loss of 2 points to your Status background. See: General Mage Help for information on 'Status'

This will be editted and amended as needed in the future.
