The Gotham Knights are a group of masked vigilantes and support characters associated with Batman and the Bat-Family. Though not a team in the typical sense of the word, each member is as much a solo operative as they are a member of the collective.

Group Charter Changes


 * Policy changes can only be made by the CO following a two-thirds majority vote from the group. This will be attained by the policy first being suggested on the +bboard, if two other +group members agree that it should be considered then it will go to a +vote. A two-thirds majority will signify assent and the change will be made to the +charter.

New Member Admission


 * Membership is by invitation by the OOC Leader or XO, though any member can suggest a character for membership. All characters with a close canon association to Batman are automatically approved for membership. Other characters must gain a close relationship through RP before they can be considered for membership. Only characters with IC access to the Batcave can be considered for invitation.

Termination of Membership


 * Though all characters with a close association to Batman are automatically approved for membership, this does not make their membership immune to termination.


 * Firstly, if a character does not abide by the IC rules set down by Batman - which include:


 * - No killing.


 * - No unnecessary brutality.


 * - Protect Gotham.


 * Then said character is eligible for removal from the +group. If Batman ICly fires a character from the group (provided it is within his character to do so) then they may be removed from the +group as a result.


 * The above is not the case in temporary dismissals as part of a plot.


 * Secondly, if a player behaves in a fashion that is deemed offensive to other members of the +group then the issue should be brought to the OOC Leader and XO with an example of the offensive behavior. The CO and XO will then speak with the offender and attempt to reach a resolution. If no resolution can be reached then a +vote may be raised to expel the offender - this also requires a two-thirds majority.


 * Any character may resign their membership at any time with a valid IC reason.

Leadership Changes


 * If Batman is played and active then that player should be OOC Leader by default. However, a unanimous +vote may be held to change the OOC Leader.


 * The OOC XO is chosen by means of a majority vote, though if there is only one candidate then that candidate will automatically assume the role.

Batcave
All members of the Gotham Knights have access to the Batcave and the amenities within. They are able to use the Batcomputer to search for information as well as to aid their own investigations. They also have access to facilities to make and repair new equipment, analyze evidence and to rest and recuperate as needed.
