The Circle of Scions
The Circle of Scions is a Druidic Circle that branches out to the world of Axios. Spreading Druidic knowledge far and wide, and are keepers of balance. In no way are we better than one another, each druid in the Circle of Scions has their own job and role to fulfill, and is expected to do so with zeal. They will learn about the Aspects, both controversial and not, and will make sure that each and every Druid is ready before attunement. Archdruids
Archdruids take up all the Responsibilities of the Druid Guide along with additional responsibilities. Archdruids are considered part of the Inner Circle.
The duties of an Archdruid include: The duties listed under Druid Guides
Calling and leading Moots
Initiating a vote on Shunning and Unshunning an individual (See Moots for voting procedure)
May engage in diplomatic discussions on behalf of the Circle. Any agreement reached is subject to a full circle vote.
May make decisions of immediate effect during times of crisis or emergency, but at the first possible opportunity these decisions will come up for vote during a Moot to determine if they continue or can be done away with.
Druid Guides
Druid Guides take up the responsibility of recruiting and teaching new druids. In exchange for these increased responsibilities, they are considered part of the Inner Circle.
The duties of a Druid Guide include:
Interviewing Seekers
Accepting Seekers as Dedicants
Providing Lessons and Tasks for Dedicants
Attunement of Dedicants
Further instruction and lessons of newly attuned Druids
Druids
Druids are the bulk majority of The Circle of Scions, and as such, are out and about spreading Druidism to each and every part of the world. Their duties are limited, but they may aspire to becoming an Archdruid or Druid Guide. The duties of a Druid include: Inform all druids of EVERY Circle of blight once spotted Have the ability to vote on full circle votes Continue to learn their blessings and how to use them
Dedicants
Dedicants are the students, the learners, who wish to one day become Druids. Nothing is changing for Dedicants as compared to other circles, this is a long-held tradition and has been proven more than beneficial and wise.
Heirophants
Hierophant is an honorary title granted to druids who have performed great services to the Circle. While a Hierophant is generally independent of any circle and should be respected, Hierophants recognized by the Circle have additional privileges.
Hierophants recognized by The Circle of Scions may:
Issue a challenge against an Archdruid, so long as they are recognised by the Circle
In the case that the number of Archdruids drops below full and the existing Archdruids refuse to hold a moot to select new Archdruids within two elven weeks, a Hierophant may call a moot for the sole purpose of electing new Archdruids. In this case, Archdruids are selected by full circle votes.
Hierophancy is either granted by the circle, or formally recognized by vote during a Moot if the Hierophancy is granted by another circle.
If another circle grants Hierophancy to a druid and that druid’s status is recognized by this circle, that recognition is automatically revoked if the druid’s Hierophancy is removed by the circle that granted it, or a vote is held by the Circle to no longer recognize the title. Another circle removing Hierophancy from a druid does not prevent this circle from granting that druid Hierophancy.
Another circle attempting to remove Hierophancy from a druid granted the title by this circle is considered invalid and has no standing upon their title in the eyes of The Circle of Scions
Hierophants raised by another circle that later merges with this circle are considered to have been granted Hierophancy by this circle, whether or not they were recognised prior to the merge, as a sign of respect.
In the case that another circle’s Hierophant is not formally recognised by this circle, they are to be respected, but they are not qualified to exercise the powers normally granted to Hierophants in the circle.
Voting
Votes may only be held in a moot.
There are two types of votes that occur:
An Inner Circle vote, and a full circle vote. An Inner Circle vote is a vote held amongst all attending members of the inner circle, requiring a simple majority to pass. A majority of the Inner Circle is required to hold an Inner Circle vote. A full circle vote is a vote held amongst all attending druids of this circle, requiring a simple majority to pass. An inner circle vote may be changed to a full circle vote by an Archdruid, at their discretion.
Issues that fall under an Inner Circle vote:
Raising a new guide
Removing guides
Raising a new Archdruid
Recognizing a Hierophant raised by another circle
Granting Hierophancy
Any unspecified votes dealing with the management of the guiding branch

An Archdruid shall publically call a moot, giving no less than two elven weeks notice. A majority of active druids of the circle is required to attend. Each proposed amendment is presented individually, receiving a vote on it’s own merit. Amendments require a 2/3 majority full circle vote to pass.
