The Wards of Clan Scholae Palatinae are a group of members with specialties in a specific field. Established by Braecen Kaeth, the primary functions of the Wards are to work alongside the Clan Summit to assist CSP in their mission of advanced mentorship.
Fictional Background
The origin of the Wards pre-date Great Jedi War 8: Incursion. The plan was to assign trusted advisors to oversee the security and prosperity of Judecca, assigning each one to a compass point. Thus Guardians, or overseers, were appointed to the far North, South, East and West.
However, as the War within the Antei System went awry, the majority of the Cocytus System was captured and over-run by the Yuuzhan Vong - including Judecca. The decision to empower these individuals during a time of war seemed impractical, leading to a delay in orders. While the Reclamation Campaign was brutal, even savage, upon the Royal Clan, the first of the Wards were appointed for their valour and service unto the Clan: Cethgus (North), Xen (East), Niemand (West) and Impetus (South). Despite the fact that Niemand was killed in the Great Jedi War, the Master re-appeared as a Force Apparition to fulfill his duty as Ward of the West - instilling his wisdom until such a time the spirit could find a new, suitable host.
Reclamation was far more successful than the War, and Judecca was reclaimed. However, two of the positions were soon vacated for various reasons. With Ward of the East Xen'Mordin Vismorsus leaving Scholae Palatinae to study abroad, a replacement was swiftly appointed in the form of the tenacious, skillful fighter, Kat Pridemore. Released from service, so that he may further serve the will of House Caliburnus, Cethgus stepped down from his position as a Ward. Thus, creating a vacuum to be filled.
In addition, prospective Ward of the South Impetus Korin suffered lethal injuries towards the closing of the war. Unable to perform her basic duties - given that she could neither walk or remain conscious in this time atemporary assisstant was appointed in the form of Xathia dan Locut'Hal to faciliate the inabilities of the current Ward.
From then on, the Wards vowed to oversee the safety and prosperity of their given appointments upon Judecca's surface.
Individual Positions
Ward of the North
Position Holder: TBA
Specialty: Gaming
Function:The Ward of the North position is the overseer and clan gaming assistant. As the position is currently empty, it is difficult to tell how this job will be governed by the next Ward of the North.
Duties of this job encompass everything to do with gaming, from advertising brotherhood competitions, to acting as a general first point of call for any gaming problems. A prerequisite is a plethora of knowledge of all, or at least most, brotherhood platforms.
Ward of the East
Position Holder: Kat Pridemore
Specialty: Antei Combat Center - Clan Trainer
Function: The Ward of the East is the clan ACC trainer. This position is essential in ensuring the members of CSP have access to the tutelage necessary to advance through the qualification stage of the ACC
The primary duties of this job are to run training battles with and provide comments on the hopeful initiates of the Combat Center from CSP, and also to serve as a trainer for the already qualified, who need a place to hone their skills. The Ward of the East is incredibly experienced in the workings of the ACC, and is an exceptionally skilful combatant.
Ward of the West
Position Holder: Niemand "Duda" Machweg
Specialty: Run-on Mentorship
Function: The Ward of the West is the Clan's Run-on organizer and trainer. While this sounds a very trivial position, run-ons are important in the db to create any lengthy fiction piece with a lot of participants, and without a mind at the center of things, they would likely fall apart.
The Ward of the West runs training run-ons to those who are considered needed for training, to make sure important run-ons aren't ruined by errors that could be negated. The Ward of the West is also essential in GJWs, as he / she is the one to take a leading role in the run-on competition.
Ward of the South
Position Holders: Impetus Korin and partner Xathia dan Locut'Hal
Specialty: Character Development / DB Wikipedia
Function The Ward of the South is a Character Development and Wikipedia advisor. Through creation of clan Wiki pages, and working with members on completing their history, the primary function of the Ward of the South is to ensure a solid fictional background behind CSP.
The Ward of the South will organize monthly fiction topics to encourage detailed fictional development in various areas. Other duties include coding CSP Wiki pages, delivering Wiki news to CSP via a bi-weekly report.
The Ward of the South is slightly different from the others, as it is governed by both Impetus and Xathia, who share the work roughly 50-50.
