Whip

Perhaps one of the strangest of Kindred positions, the Whip is as informal a position as the Priscus.    She is responsible for “inspiring” her clanmates to present a united face on major issues and to make their voices heard on local issues, to make sure that the other clans take them seriously. She is both a leader and a taskmaster, a figurehead and a bully. Whips exist only in those cities with fairly large populations of a given clan, and even then only if a particular member of that clan feels the need to take the position.   While similar thereto, the Whip is not assistant to the Priscus - it is a separate position altogether. The fact they have similar roles places the two at odds with each when they disagree.
