Council of Ministers:
-
The Council will consist of two Houses and the Prime Minister. The first house will contain those Ministers appointed by the Prime Minister. These appointed Councilors will be known as Ministers. Ministers will administer various departments within the clan in order to help with the plans of clan growth provided by the Prime Minister. This house of Councilors will be known as The Cabinet.

-
The second house of Councilors will be populated by members of CerealKillaz that have passed the approval policy. This house will be known as The Senate, and its members will be known as Senators. The approval policy will consist of the following:
-
The member must be nominated by an invited participant of a Council meeting.
-
The member must be a CerealKillaz member considered to be in good standing.
-
The member must agree to the nomination and be present for any questioning the current Council members need before approving.
-
The member must be voted and approved by a majority of Council members.

-
In the event that a Councilor (Minister OR Senator or Prime Minister) wishes to establish any new clan policy, he/she may introduce it at a regular Council meeting. If it is voted on and approved by a majority of Councilors present, then it will be introduced into the CerealKillaz procedural rules or the rules of conduct, depending on where it is appropriate.
-
-
In the event that a Councilor finds issue with any individual clan policy, that issue will be brought up at a Council meeting. The Ministers objecting will have an opportunity to explain why they disagree with the current policy, and shall also be afforded an opportunity to suggest an alternate policy or to abolish the policy altogether.
Any CerealKillaz member that has achieved at least a rank of Lieutenant Colonel may attend any Council meeting if they wish. These Officers will be allowed a vote on any issue that gets voted on at these meetings.
General Officer Ranks:
: The Generalisimus will be the ranking member of the CerealKillaz organization. The Generalisimus will guide the clan in all maneuvers deemed fit by the council. The Generalisimus will work directly with the Prime Minister to ensure the safety and defense of the clan, while ensuring her longevity to the best of his or her abilities.
-
Field Marshal
(FM): Field Marshals can make Battle Field promotions based on merit up to and including the rank of 2nd Lieutenant. Field Marshals may call a vote on any issue deemed to need immediate action for the well being of the clan. With a unanimous vote the Field Marshals may institute a “stop-gap” measure into effect immediately. These “stop-gap” measures will be reviewed by the General Officers and voted on to become permanent. Field Marshals may hold two Warrants, CWO-5 and CWO, which can be applied to any NCO as deemed fit by the FM.
-
General
(Gen): In the event that the Field Marshals are split on an item, usually the Gen with the longest tenure will be brought in to decide the vote, and the other Gens, if any exist, will be consulted for advice on the issue. Usually these cases end up in the vote having to go to all the Generals in CK. Generals may also make Field promotions immediately effective up to Sergeant Major. Holds one warrant of CWO-4 which can be applied to any NCO as deemed fit by the Gen.
-
Major General
(MajGen): Major General is a most demanding position. MajGens will work closely with their Brigadier Generals to ensure Military Clan Business gets accomplished. This requires a truly committed and loyal member and will require a premium of time be spent on clan business, as such they have demonstrated the desire and ability to accomplish these responsibilities and deserve our respect. The MajGen may make Battlefield promotions up to Master Gunnery Sergeant and holds one warrant of CWO-2 which can be applied to any NCO as deemed fit by the MajGen.
Field Officer ranks:
-
Colonel
(Col): Colonel is the highest Field Officer rank attainable in CK. This rank is only achieved by those that show a good amount of loyalty to the clan. Since Colonel is the last rung on the ladder before the general officer ranks (see above), a Colonel should demonstrate an ability and desire to lead in some area of the clan before seeking further promotion.Holds one warrant of WO which can be applied to any NCO as deemed fit by the Col.
-
Lieutenant Colonel
(LtCol): LtCols are generally long-tenured CKz and have all the rights afforded an officer of CK.
-
Major
(Maj): Majors have demonstrated extreme loyalty to CK.
Company-Grade Officer ranks:
-
Captain
(Cpt): Captain is the lowest rank one may have and be the Chief of any Department Head's staff. (exception to this rule is Warrant Officer, and only if the Department Head holds said WO's warrant). Captains may select one Senior Master Sergeant to perform necessary tasks as deemed fit by the Captain.
-
First Lieutenant
(1stLt): no description of duties needed here, has all rights as 2ndLt as far as Field promotions go, generally denotes a longer tenure served in CK, and is just another rung on the ladder to the general officer ranks.
-
Second Lieutenant
(2ndLt): Lowest rank available to captain a chapter of CK (exception: Warrant Officers of any grade, First Knight). 2ndLt and above may make Field Promotions up to Sergeant.
All aforementioned officers and Ministers may initiate any vote on any member of CerealKillaz regarding rank advancement, or rank demotion, to be voted on and decided by majority rule by emailing officers@cerealkillaz.org. This excludes any and all Warrant Officers, who may only vote on the items, and not initiate ballots. Votes regarding rank advancement will only include those officers of a higher rank than the rank being voted on (a Second Lieutenant getting voted on to advance to Captain would be voted on by majors and above).
The following section will be used to describe the duties of a Warrant Officer in the CerealKillaz Organization:
Upon achieving a rank of Colonel or above, a CerealKillaz Officer may begin to issue a certain number of warrants to non-commissioned officers. The roles of these Warrant Officers (WO) will usually depend on the role of the Issuing Officer (IO), and the IO's rank in the CerealKillaz Organization. The WO will be designated by the rank of the individual IO. If an IO has multiple Warrants, then the one with the higher number designation will usually serve and be deferred to as the higher ranking individual when the IO is not present, however, this depends on the IO. WOs may vote on anything that gets voted on in meetings that they are able to attend, which include all meetings and ballots that the individual IO they are assigned to are able to participate in. WOs may not initiate votes at these meetings, however. Warrant Officers report directly to their IOs in all matters of clan business. This is why it is important for CK Officers to take the choices for WOs very important. To see which officers get which warrants, please read the individual officer descriptions above.
The following section will be used to describe special designations that can be earned by CerealKillaz Officerz:
Chief of Staff

Chief of Staff is a title that designates its holder as the lead member of any General Officer's staff. A Chief of Staff must hold at least a rank of Captain. A Chief of Staff's duties and responsibilities will be determined by the Department Head he/she is assigned to and will remain in the confines of that department's area of influence.
Chapter Captain
-
Chapter Captain is a position that can be earned by any CerealKillaz Officer over the rank of Major.
-
This position will be beholden to the Field Marshals and the Advisory Staff on matters of recruitment.
-
The chapter captain will be responsible for knowing and following the current recruiting process of the clan.
The Next Section will be expanded as necessary to describe special ranks of Non-Commissioned Officers:
-
Senior Master Sergeant
-
(SMSgt): Senior Master Sergeant will assist the officer they are assigned to as deemed fit by the officer. In order to be deemed fit to be a Senior Master Segeant or above, a user must be active in multiple areas of the clan (ventrilo, website, in-game, PREs, etc.) and also must have an email address registered at cerealkillaz.org. If a Senior Master Sergeant is assigned to the Chief of Staff of any Department he/she may, with the approval of his/her assigned officer, choose no more than 1 enlisted CerealKilla to serve as a Staff Sergeant in order to further the plans of the Department he/she serves.
