Proposal Type: Bylaw Revision
Opened: 02-Oct-2006 1:00AM EDT
Closing: 02-Oct-2006 1:00AM EDT


Coordinator Bylaw 3.c.ii states that Genre Coordinators must passbefore Council any plot, enforced policy, R&U Named characters, or
binding edict they wish to use which they can reasonably expect to
affect multiple chronicles and these proposals need not be seconded,
but go immediately into discussion and that if no opposition is voiced
during the week of discussion, the proposal is considered passed and
enforceable.

This Genre proposal requires no second, and once it is put into
discussion, if there are no objections posted here within one week, it
goes into effect without a vote. If objections are posted, it is voted
on as normally. If posting an objection, please retain the original
subject heading, with the addition of the word "OBJECTION", to assist
in identifying posts that change this proposal's status.

Reasoning: As written, the current genre rules have an administrative
lock to them regarding subcoordinators. However, as the Org expands,
the rules prevent more subcoordinators from being appointed to cover
the expansion.

Essentially, some games could be covered by a regional subcoordinator
portraying a Lord, while other newer games could not.

The proposed rewrite below allows subcoordinators to have multiple
lords as needed and removes the geographic references (ex: 1 western,
1 northeastern, etc.) to allow more flexibility and coverage as the
Org expands in whatever areas it expands into.

Web site updates have also been. The last section also adds a 'no
grandfathering' clause to help stop abuses. This was always implied,
but now it would be explicit.

Section 1. Genre information related to Clans

I. Tremere

1. Tremere Coordinator involvement r/t Clan / Administrative duties / Rules

i. The current Tremere clan packet is to be considered Thaumaturgy
policy for OWbN. It is located at:
http://clans.owbn.org/tremere/library/BloodMagicGuide2.pdf or
http://www.owbntremere.com/ under OOC Info -> Blood Magic Packet ->
PDF

ii. It is the responsibility of the Tremere Coordinator to keep the
rules and guidelines for the different forms of Thaumaturgy current
and available for OWbN as a whole.

iii. The Tremere Coordinator shall have Interregional Sub-Coordinators
(as determined by regional need and Coordinator approval). During
their period as Sub-Coordinator and 3 months beyond their active date,
these Sub-Coordinators may not have an active PC that is Tremere or
that has a Tremere as a mentor.

1. Interregional Sub-Coordinators: Each of these Sub-Coordinators, are
responsible for the pyramidal structure of their area. They are
responsible for operating / portraying the area Lord's offices,
keeping in regular communication with the Storytellers in their area,
and report to the Tremere Coordinator.

a. The Sub-Coordinator coordinating the Lord over a Realm (defined in
I.3.ii.1) will answer to all of the local STs in the area that that
Lord controls. Storytellers that wish to have the Lord take actions in
their game, or actions that affect more than one chronicle must
communicate their desire of such with the appropriate subcoordinator
in a timely fashion. If the Sub-Coordinator decides it is necessary,
it may be brought to the Tremere Coordinator and/or OWbN council.

b. A Lord Sub-Coordinator shall have no more than 7 chantries
geographically under their Lord's control. Furthermore, No Pontifex
(controlled by the Tremere Coordinator) should have more than 7 Lords
in their geographic region. There are Maps on the Tremere clan page
showing the regions and how they are divided.
(http://clans.owbn.org/tremere/foyer.html) or
(http://www.owbntremere.com/ IC Info ->, The Pyramid)

c. Interregional Sub-Coordinators are required to make a brief monthly
report of the NPC Lord's actions in their area to the Tremere
Coordinator. (The idea here is not to overburden Storytellers with
more paperwork. This system opens the Interregional Sub-Coordinators
to be a shared resource of the Storytellers in their area.)

d. Tremere Sub-Coordinators shall be chosen by the Tremere
Coordinator, but may be removed by a majority decision of the
Chronicles in the area that that Sub-Coordinator is working in.

Also a change to:

I.3.iv. While it is possible for a Tremere Chantry to be invaded by
those not of House and Clan Tremere, no Thaumaturgical materials (i.e.
Books, Tomes, Rituals, etc) can be removed from said Chantry. This is
to reduce the spread of Thaumaturgy outside House and Clan Tremere.
There is no grandfathering.
