Rank shifts

[Phantom]

As previously mentioned, Cliques are radically unstable and likely to change. However one thing is always for sure; the queen bee always rules, and their second in command is always one step behind them. Besides that ranks shift left and right at times, it all depends on how much the Queen likes you.

Rank Shifts work rather simply. About every week one or two characters will advance, or go back down the food chain of the Clique they're in. This is all decided by the Queen Bee of your Clique. Sometimes it won't just be the Queen bee either- it can also be your peers that judge you. However you will never be evicted from the Clique unless you do something drastic.

Now how this system WORKS:

The Queen Bee will simply judge you, (Not the person themselves, but from their characters viewpoint. So if their character hates yours... Well.) and then if they consider you for a rank up or down they will consult at least one other member of the Clique. Or they can make it a public affair. They will do this with one or two characters a week. This will be the Queen Bee's decision. Sometimes they can decide to advance no one, seeing as most might be in the right place.

However, Queen Bee's do have their favorites and they will keep track of that. That's pretty much how the system is, and the scale is as follows:

Best Friend
Consultant
Trusted
Friend
Acquaintance
Disliked
Enemy
Black-listed

This can be for people in AND trying to get into the Clique.
Got it? Good. Now be a good little follower and make your Queen happy with you!
