===Article I- Recruitment=== | |||
New Elves are recruited by any leader, but particularly by the Recruiters, such as MineToad. They are then given the rank of Elven Citizen, and, if not already in possession of a home, are given one in the Gondolin Palace, on the second floor. Players can also join via the Recruitment Notice, and are also given a home in the Palace if they wish for one. The Empire will not recruit former criminals of the Empire, and those put on the blacklist by the Queen, or the Commonwealth of Nations, unless there are special circumstances. | |||
===Article II- Ranks and Organisation=== | |||
The Empire is divided into four branches, the Government, the Military, the Civil, and the Citizens. An elf’s colour of rank can indicate their branch. | |||
Purple for Government | |||
Yellow for Military | |||
Green for Civil | |||
Blue for Citizens. | |||
'''The Government Branch''' | |||
*''The Queen''-she has supreme power within the empire and is able to recruit, create and end alliances and rivalries and also command all elven members to do her bidding. | |||
* | |||
*''The King''-he’s equal to the queen and holds the same powers as his wife. | |||
*''The Archchancellor''– he is the monarchs’ deputy and may wield their power in their absence. He is also the head of all brewers in the crew. | |||
*''Princes&Princesses''– they may act using the sovereign’s authority and are equal in powers with them. | |||
*''Royal advisors''– the personal advisor to the Queen or King informing them on all actions and acting as a parent figure in a sense but understands the respect and boundries to the crown.The Royal Advisor has a permanent rank. | |||
*''Head of the guard''– they are in charge of equipping the army and organizing it. In times of war, they are also the supreme commander of the ground armed forces, being superior to the generals of both The Royal Guard and The Eternal Guard and responsible for coordinating actions which involve both of these army branches. | |||
*''Head of the navy''– they are in charge of naval base construction, managing the fleet (overseeing the building and maintaining of ships) and they are also the supreme commander of the navy in times of war. | |||
*''Ambassadors''-they are in charge of relations with other crews. Each ambassador is delegated to a single crew. Every ambassador has full power to negotiate with the crew he is delegated to, but with no other. Ambassadors do not have leader permissions. | |||
- | |||
*''Head ambassador''– he leads the ambassador core and may engage in negotiations with any foreign crew. He is responsible for the activity of all ambassadors and is the one who makes everything negotiated by ambassadors official (actually creates the alliance or rivalry). | |||
*''Lord of the Law''– he is responsible for creating laws and revising the elven charter after consulting his fellow members. He is also responsible for enforcing the laws of the crew by organizing trials for people suspected of breaking the law. | |||
'''The Military Branch''' | |||
The | |||
*''The Royal Guard'' is an elite force, the personal guard of King Lithvather and Queen Reptaria. They answer to the Crown first and their General second, and carry out the orders of the Monarchs. They are for the protection of the King and Queen instead of the Empire as a whole. It will typically will be a far smaller organisation than the Eternal Guard. Their General is second to only the monarchs themselves and the Head of Guard in the respects of command of the Royals, and the Royals answer to him before any other figure that is not a monarch.The general of the Royal Guard may appoint officers of this branch aa he sees fit. The current General is Bullk5. | |||
*''The Eternal Guard'' protects the entirety of the Empire, and will respond to attacks on all settlements, instead of just Gondolin. They are obliged to help any Elf that asks for aid, and can be commanded by any leader or captain. It is a much larger outfit than the Royals, but similar to the Royals, their General’s orders can only be overruled by the Monarchs and the Head of Guard. The General can appoint Officers of the Eternals, as he/she wishes. A new general is needed. They also may be known as Elven Soldiers. | |||
*''The Army Officer Core'' is composed of Sergeants, Lieutenants and Captains, in ascending order of power. | |||
*''The Naval Fleet'' is the Elven Navy, those who the Elves turn to on all situations involving marine warfare, whether they be friendly ship battles, or rival encounters. As of the moment, they are lead by Admiral Lukukies, and are building up a Fleet, working closely with the Elven Engineers and Elven Suppliers. | |||
*The backbone of the navy is represented by Elven sailors who are led by the ''Navy Officer Core'' composed of: Lieutenants, Captains and Commodores, in order of power starting with the lowest in command. | |||
*''The Intelligence Office'' is tasked with recording events on the wiki, keeping all members up to date via the website, and learning current news. They also are charged with keeping crime non existent within the empire, by reporting all crime to _Iridus_ and the Eternal Guard. They are recruiting, and looking for members. | |||

This voting will be held via comments on the website, online surveys for maintaining anonymity, or ingame via chat or the bulletin board. | |||
