The Battleteam Leader is responsible for the overall welfare of his or her team. Battleteam Leader is a term more commonly used now that the "barrier" between the three Orders have been broken. In the past, there were three separate terms to specify a Battle Team Leader (Krath Tetrarch, Sith Commander, Obelisk Sergeant). This includes keeping members motivated and active. Duties of the Battleteam Leader include and are not limited to:
- Maintaining a Battleteam website with roster, events, etc

- Forward any communications from higher in the command chain to team members
- Report to the House Summit on a regular basis
- Make promotion and/or award recommendations for members where appropriate
- Set an example, both in conduct and activity (ie. following the set requirements towards conduct, participating in competitions, on message boards, etc)
- Promote competitions and other events within the Dark Brotherhood
Powers - The Battleteam Leader has powers of awarding the Dark Cross and awards for approved competitions that the Battleteam Leader may run.
Appointment - Battleteam Leaders are appointed by the House Summit with approval from the Master at Arms.
