The Office of the Kingdom Chronicler is looking for a Contingency Deputy. The role of the Contingency Deputy is to administer the office of Chronicler in such case as the Chronicler(s) are unable to continue in the office. You will not be assumed to be the next Chronicler, though would be encouraged to apply for the position at the end of our term.

In the event of stepping into the role of Principality Chronicler, you would be responsible for:

  • Publishing the Avantgarde as per Society Policy and Kingdom Law.
  • Supervising all Chroniclers within Avacal, maintaining warrants and contact lists.
  • Maintaining communication with the Kingdom Chronicler and Branch Chroniclers.
  • Maintaining files pertaining to the office, such as financial reports, warrant list, publication release forms, Branch Newsletters and reports, and every copy of the Avantgarde.
  • Recording and distributing minutes from Kingdim Business Meetings ("Curia").

Training in the above will be happily provided, if needed. Knowledge of document creation would be handy, but is not necessary. The process is being streamlined into one that anyone with basic working knowledge of computer programs like MS Office would be able to easily produce the newsletter.

​The office of the Seneschal is a facilitator of policy and procedure from the local to corporate level. Successful Seneschals avail themselves of good interpersonal skills and diplomatic skills, attention to detail, and objective issue management. Seneschals must work with and through people, and their success is completely dependent on the goodwill and relationships they can manage and foster. They are ultimately the one responsible for real world legal, financial, and operational matters: sites, contracts, waiver policy, and making sure the SCA governing documents are followed.

Further information can be found in 2 documents on the Seneschal's blog:
