The mentor system within the Mages Guild is overseen by the Head Mentor. Mentors should exemplify the magely respect we show to all fellow guild members, despite rank or level. In addition to this, mentors see to it that new and young mages get the starting advice and teaching necessary in order to get accustomed with life in Legends of Cosrin and life as a mage. This starts with making sure students find and comprehend the mages welcome scroll and the advice covered in it, continues with the teaching of the knowledge and practice needed to successfully explore the world, and culminates in giving a prime example in terms of a role model to any mage. All this is done mostly in the form of one-on-one tutoring. Mentors will also from time to time offer classes, both spontaneous ones and those scheduled ahead of time by way of announcement on public mages board. To the mentor, the guild and the well-being and learning of its young members are of paramount importance.
Head Mentor:
The Mages Guild's Mentorship Program is headed by the Head Mentor. He or she is expected to be one of the current Guild Officers. The Head Mentor is recognized by the title "Mages Mentor". It is required that the Head Mentor be of an age, experience, and Guild Rank sufficient to provide the wisdom and guidance that such a position demands. The Head Mentor needs to be well informed on magesí training, attitude/behavior and history issues. He or she will be appointed at the will of the GM after consultation of the current or previous ArchGuides, and after seeking feedback from mentors. He or she will head a team, thus the team must be heard in choosing the HM.
ArchMentors:
The Head Mentor is followed by up to three ArchMentors, who serve as deputies to the Head Mentor. These positions are non-GO positions. They sit at the approval and disposal of the Head Mentor. ArchMentors help the Head Mentor build the mentor team, recruit new mentors, interview mentor applicants, and look after the administrative needs of the mentor team as well as report to the Head Mentor regularly on the state of the mentor team. ArchMentors are role model mentors and usually appointed for outstanding work and dedication.
Mentor Recruitment:
It is the responsibility of all mages, upon approval of the Head Mentor, to recruit new mentors; the ArchMentors and the Head Mentor are usually the ones most preoccupied with this task. To be a mentor is to hold a position of responsibility and dedication. It is a position of honor. Mentors shall not wait to be called for. Seeking the ones who need advice, even (perhaps especially) when they donít realize it yet, and helping them, is a mentorís first focus. Mentors shall be recognizable by their titles, for example, by adding "Wizard Mentor", "Mentor," or "*MM*" for short.
