Bylaw Revision: Change to Coordinator Bylaws 3.C.ii.4

I hereby propose the following change to Coordinator Bylaws 3.C.ii.4:
Change current wording:

(4) They may request permission of the appropriate STs to take any actions through clan NPCs towards PCs.
(a) The appropriate STs shall be deemed to be the STs with OWBN jurisdiction over the PC at the time and chronicle at which the action is to occur.
(b) If the action is foreseeable in advance, permission should also be sought from the PC's home chronicle STs.
(c) If permission is granted, they may take those actions.
(d) If permission is not granted, the Coordinator may take their case before Council. Council's rulings will be binding to the Coordinator and the chronicle(s) in question.
(e) If Head Storytellers make agreements with Coordinators concerning PCs, those agreements shall be binding on both the Coordinator and the chronicle, regardless of who holds the Coordinator position or the ST positions (though agreements may be altered if both STs and Coordinators agree).
(f) Failure to keep such agreements shall be brought before Council and considered appropriate grounds for punitive measures.

To:

(4) They may request permission of the appropriate STs to take any actions directly through clan NPCs towards PCs.
(a) The appropriate STs shall be deemed to be the STs with OWBN jurisdiction over the PC at the time and chronicle at which the action is to occur.
(b) If the action is foreseeable in advance, permission should also be sought from the PC's home chronicle STs for any direct interaction via NPCs.
(i) Permission is not required for indirect interaction (wherein the words, requests, desires, etc. of NPCs are carried to PCs by another PC), only for direct interaction (wherein a PC personally interacts with, or is affected personally by, NPCs without the intermediary of other PCs).
(c) If permission is granted, they may take those actions.
(d) If permission is not granted, the Coordinator may take their case before Council. Council's rulings will be binding to the Coordinator and the chronicle(s) in question.
(e) If Head Storytellers make agreements with Coordinators concerning PCs, those agreements shall be binding on both the Coordinator and the chronicle, regardless of who holds the Coordinator position or the ST positions (though agreements may be altered if both STs and Coordinators agree).
(f) Failure to keep such agreements shall be brought before Council and considered appropriate grounds for punitive measures.

This is intended to provide clarity, and to limit the burden on involved parties for responsibility of contact to a reasonable level.
