Officium Curia: Lictor and Consilliator Roles

[Arokh Takakura]

It was an honour serving underneath Consul Primus Mckay for so many years, and I wish her all the best in her life beyond the Imperium. That said, it is with great humility that I take her place as the new Consul Primus of the Officium. The Ordo Imperialis has a great and unknown future ahead of it that the S.L.M.C. has never seen before, and I hope to be an integral part of that, with all of you.

That aside:

Officium Curia is looking for new lictors and consiliators at this point in time, likely three individuals in each section for a total of six new members.

Requirements:

Lictor/Consiliator candidates will be required to meet the following Criteria:

~You need to be at LEAST E-4

~Have at LEAST 4 mos in Ordo

~Have a clean record (preferred that no CIRs be present in the applicant's history with the Ordo Imperialis)

~Have a letter of recommendation from your CO/XO explaining why you are an acceptable candidate (send through notecard or forum IM to Arokh Takakura)

~History of sufficient activity levels to perform your duties (Active on a nearly daily basis would be preferred)

Please include the following information in your reply via FORUM PM to AROKH TAKAKURA:

Position you are wishing to be considered for:

Lictors are defined as follows:

http://forums.ordoim...866#entry102866

"Members of the Lictor staff are the backbone of Curia operations, functioning as investigators and information gatherers. Lictors are responsible for most of the day to day work within Curia, providing the Consuls with the time to focus on making judgment rulings. Lictor positions do not carry an enumerated military rank, as such any individual not dual enlisted will be classified as [E-0] unranked. Numerically, Lictor staff may be increased or decreased per the will of the Primus Consul. Appointment to the Lictor staff is done per the approval of the Primus Consul."

Lictors perform the following:

~Investigations: Primarily of incoming applications directed to Curia, and the applicants. (For this aspect of the role it is essential to form relationships with individuals who have had impact on the applicant's past experiences.)

~information gathering (Again, need to be able to form relationships with various individuals who have encountered the applicant or subject of the information gathering)

~Investigate incidents and applicants to find facts, gather testimony, collect evidence, and compile a comprehensive report in a short period of time (Encouraged strongly to complete assignment within 72 hours of receiving and acknowledgment of the assignment)

~Advising Ordo Imperialis members of proper procedure in filling out a Curia Incident Report (CIR), weapons or uniform modification requests, etc.

~The lictor *may* request that a member comply with the standards of the group, but the role itself does not grant further authority to one's rank. In other words, an E-5 lictor, is simply an E-5.

~In the rare circumstance of a trial, a lictor may be asked to serve as a representative for prosecution or defense during a triumvirate.

This list notes a majority of areas that a lictor may be involved in, yet may not be fully developed. The investigative process of applications and incidents tends to present its own challenges at times, so please keep this in mind when considering the role.

Consiliators on the other hand are primarily the Ordo Imperialis "Counselors" which the name is derived from the Latin. They perform in some cases the same or similar duties to the Lictor, but have a unique focal area, as noted below:

~Investigation: They investigate Curia related matters at the consul's request and help to compile the information gathered for review with the consuls and the individual's CoC.

~Mediation: Consiliators provide mediation between two or more parties that may be having social difficulties between one another. This is in an attempt to prevent matters from escalating to levels that may require a CIR to be written.

~Counseling: The consiliators in this area shoulder a heavier burden, as the unique social challenges that can arise from a group of individuals can be numerous and intricate. Counseling can simply be offering your services in terms of listening to someone if they need assistance, or it can be in some case akin to career counseling when someone is uncertain as to which niche they wish to fulfill within the Ordo Imperialis.

~Writing and compiling "Counseling Statements" if required, in order to preserve record of interactions between group members.

~Generally helping, assisting, and monitoring the Ordo Imperialis on behalf of Officium Curia to ensure that the Ordo's "social climate" is being preserved in order to ensure group prosperity and general contentment among the members of the Ordo Imperialis.
