I always thought of the trinity of clan leadership like this.
The MC takes care of all the social and medical needs of the clan. Not only taking care of the physical health of the clan, but the psychological as well. By doing this, they must be a part of the clan. They are in many ways the eyes and ears of the leader and deputy, who tend to become more removed from the clan. Your the one who they should go to if the need your opinion on the inate details of a person. I talked with moonflower long and hard about all possible leaders to succeed me, and i talked long and hard with matching apprentences with their mentors with her every time. She knew each person, and knew how active they were, and knew their character.
The deputy is an extension of the leader, the successor to the leader. A leader can not function without a good deputy, and if they are functioning without a good deputy, its like a car going without oil. It will overheat, and crash.
As such they help the deputy with organizing the camp and keeping things running smoothly. They do not get to make the rules yet as they are not leader, but they assist in the making of the rules by imputing the needs of the clan, and noting their opinion. They enforce what the leader says, and do what the leader requests. They help ceremonies transition smoother, by making sure after a ceremony that the apprentece and warrior are indeed training, and that people that were sent on patrolls, are going on their patrolls, and that they report that patroll, and they take the patroll reports to the leader. The MC and Deputy should be talking constantly, and then the deputy should be bringing concernes from both to the leader. They are the enforcer, and the one who keeps the clan organized. They see what the leader says, done through.
The leader is the one who should always be the head of the clan. They should always lead in a manner of their own and be their own person, and keep the clan united together. They keep everyone doing their job. A leader needs to be comfortable stepping on toes, but needs to have alot of patience and understanding. The leader should always motivate their clan, and should always be the person on the most, but not post the most. If a leader needs to post alot, then something is wrong. A leader needs to have a sence of responsibility and servitude to those that they lead. They need compassion for those they lead. If they don't have this they will be driven mad by the flaws and the learning process of the new clan members. A leader should assist starclan with the technicality's of the website, but most of all they should never have starclan fretting over their clan. If starclan must talk to that leader, that leader needs to be fired and killed. If starclan interviens, they are the leader of that clan. Not the leader.
Being a leader is ALOT.
They keep the MC and DEP doing their jobs
They are a figurehead for the clan
They set the bar and the example
they do ceremonies and technicalities
they organize the clans threads, enforce starclans rules, just as the deputy enforces the rules of the leader.
They help with all technicalities that starclan needs. If starclan asks, u drop everything and help.
They keep this website going.
A leader is really a servant to every one of you.
I got this from a friend, one who is here and very dedicated to what they do. RenaceCheide
