Huntmaster

From Sojourn
This is considered a job of high importance, expect to be demoted or jobbanned if you fail to do your job correctly, act incompetently, and generally perform poorly.

You can and will be scrutinized by admins and players in your department.

Huntmaster

"He adjusts and guides his kin. whom bow drawn and shaking, aims at the finest prey under the sky.".

Department:

Independent

Access:

Lodge

Supervisors:

The Matriarch

Difficulty:

Hard


The Apex

Of the many, you are a chosen few Hunt masters. Your duties will involve leading the hunters in both hunt and home. You may not be the best at everything but the Matriarch has seen in you the apex of her ideals. Your duties involve:

  • Lead the hunt: The plains are ripe with fights to be won. You are the few who are tasked with organizing, planning and executing hunts. The hunters are your kin and it falls to you to make sure the hunt does not end in disaster.
  • Protect your kin: The safety granted by the colonies walls and many turrets do not occur at the lodge. we are openly independent and therefore attractive to those who wish harm, the hunt-master is tasked to ensure their kin survive, be it at lose of our home.
  • Keep the peace: in lack of the matriarch presence you are the representative of her and the lodges will. Diplomacy conducted between the lodge and outside influences such as our allies fall to the huntmaster.
  • Keep high spirits: An impossible task, but one that is vital. Hunters fight til the bitter end, and do so with a joyous bravado that legends will sing about for lifetimes to come.

The Codex

The Hunters Codex is the law-set written by the matriarch, shaped and formed over the time of the lodges growth. the faction and its ideals are newly formed and therefore subject to many loopholes and grey areas covered in more robust law systems. In these times, it falls upon the hunt master to impart judgement second only to the matriarch.

Enforcement of the codex falls into the huntmasters tasking as well as held strictly against them. You are the Apex of the hunters and therefore lead by example.

The Rites

There are many respectable leaders upon this planet, from the well known high council to those who lead as head of staff. Whilst normal heads of staff are chosen through experience, hard work and seniority (as well as the age restriction). Hunt-masters are a unique in this sense as they can be anyone regardless of age and Achievement. The hunt-master is better seen as a potential rather then a end. Such as this being the case, the Hunt-master does not ascend promotion in the traditional way. They perform rites in a large ceremony, where they swear and hold their allegiance upon high. This assure the full responsibility that comes with the power is hard earned, rather then taken. How one gets chosen on the otherhand is left to the hunter to discover.

The Matriarchs Word

“It is my long held philosophy that anyone can hunt. Though Hunt-Masters stand above that, being both loyal to the cause without being blind-fully so. Each of them is unique with both flaw and boon and honestly? wouldn't trade them for nothin'. - Matriarch Smail In casual conversation with CEO Rin Mirkir over her Choice of hunt-masters

Rin Mirkir flashes a grin - pausing to sniff. "Yeah? I trade them for teeth."
