Redeemed - Warhammer In-Game Guild Ranks
Benevolent Dictator -
Type of player: any (achiever/social/spiritual)
number of guild leaders: 1
activity level: medium-high
Description: Benevolence is not an easy thing to carry out whilst being a dictator! Although the Benevolent Dictator for Life (BD4L) is the leader of the guild in name, the various functions needed to be provided are too numerous for one person to handle. He/She must be willing to adapt the guild functions to best serve its current players. He/she is expected to represent the guild from within and without as a representative of Christ and exude the qualities of a deacon/deaconess as described in 1st Timothy Chapter 3.

Vice Benefactor -
Type of player: any (achiever/social/spiritual)
number of VBs: 1+
activity level: medium+ (He/She would inherit the guild leader title if the position were to default)
Description: If a guild leader is absent for 30 days, Warhammer automatically elects the next active player with the highest rank. There have been cases where the leadership was passed on to incorrect members or players that went inactive and caused a bottleneck in guild leadership activity. Also, real life is considered higher priority and one person should not be relied upon to remain active and visible within the guild at all times. This position is here to allow for some leeway for guild leaders (and vice leaders) to juggle family and fun and allow for others to fill in the gaps. Like the BD4L, the Vice Benefactor must be mindful that he/she is a representative of Christ and exude the qualities of a deacon/deaconess as described in 1st Timothy Chapter 3.

Ambassador -
Type of player: social
number of Ambassadors: 2+
activity level: medium, if the only ambassador. (minimal-medium) if another ambassador has been assigned.
Description: Do you love the social aspects of the guild and love helping people? Guilds are basically social groups, when it comes down to it. But even within a guild, you will find inner social groups. It could be the guild officers. It could be mini-groups of players who typically play amongst themselves or are family members. Ambassadors will serve as the liaison function between these social groups. It does not require a player to be an expert gamer. Filling an alliance officer position and representing the guild across guilds would be optional. A social task like this is an evolving and ongoing activity. An ambassador will be able to split up the duties amongst other ambassadors. In the event that there are not enough ambassadors, the Vice Benefactor and Benevolent Dictator will fill this role.
