What makes a good liege?


I was going to do a post today about the Prom Event or the recent Masquerade Ball or the field trip to the strip clubs we had. But the hot topic around Divine seems to be a debate concerning what is expected of a liege. I attended a recent liege class we held and the general consensus was:

  1. Teach the new minion the basics of Bloodlines: How their HUD works, how to eat an apple, don't wear fangs or claws, don't bite people until  turned.
  2. Give them a tour of the lands. Don't just dump people leaving it to other clan members to take care of. Spend some time with them. We are not a burn and turn clan. We are a family
  3. Help them with their avatar if they are noobs. We have plenty of free skins, shapes, and ao's in our new member packet as well on clan lands.
  4. Attend the new member orientation with new minions. This shouldn't be in replace of the liege teaching them. This goes for the classes as well. They are to enhance what the liege has already been teaching or mentoring.
  5. Communication is key. If for some reason you don't get along, use the chain of command to avoid drama.
  6. Most of us agreed each new minion should be a blood doll at least a week to learn how Bloodlines works. Learning how SL works is hard enough without adding the pressure of hunting and feeding on top of it.
  7. What a liege isn't expected to do- give gifts, provide a home, feed a lazy vamp or lycan. That is being used and should not be a requirement.  Some lieges can provide these things, but don't expect it. Oh! And sex. Not required to have the sexy sexy with the minions.
What is your idea of a good liege?
