KIDC Command Staff
The Command Staff is a team of twelve trusted advisors to
whom the Ambassador can turn to when faced with major decisions
that have a fundamental importance in how the Klingon Imperial
Diplomatic Corps is organized or administered.
The Command Staff is composed of the Ambassador, the Chancellor,
the Ambassador's Chief of Staff and any members that the Ambassador
might see fit to appoint based on their years of service, loyalty
and dedication to the ideals of the Klingon Imperial Diplomatic
Corps. These twelve positions are not permanent; if a member
of the Command Staff is derelict in his/her duties, then they
are retired from the post by the Ambassador, Chancellor or Chief
of Staff, or they may request a Personal Leave of Absence.
The members of the Command Staff have demonstrated their desire
and dedication to oversee the successful administration and operation
of the Klingon Imperial Diplomatic Corps. They each operate and
maintain a department, area or sector for the KIDC as ordered
by the Ambassador and are required to remain in contact with
the Ambassador as to the status of their respective areas.
The current members of the Ambassador's Command Staff are:
1) Chancellor Stalker Zantai Subaiesh
2) Retired Chief of Staff, Commander K'Daq Sutai Kasara
3) Chief of Staff, Lady Ka'Diin Vestai Kasara
4) Assistant Chief of Staff, Qor'etlh valwI'na
5) Captain Lady Katana Vestai Kasara
6) Captain Makin Sutai Cheghjihtah-Kasara
7) Commander K'heyrel Vestai De'Hal-Kasara-BaClar
8) Lieutenant HoS'etlh qultIq Tai Kasara
9) Lieutenant Draq'naH Tai SaqIm
The Ambassador receives her authority from the High Council
and the Emperor Kahless II. She is the authorized voice of the
Empire on Terra. The Command Staff serves as an advisory group
for the Ambassador in areas of KIDC operations, but the Ambassador
always has the final authority over command decisions.
Office of the Chief of Staff
The operation of the Klingon Imperial Diplomatic Corps requires
a considerable amount of administrative tasks. Since the Ambassador's
and the Chancellor's schedules are normally filled with the duties
and responsibilities of planning and organizing convention participation,
fund-raisers, public appearances, publication of our online newsletters,
and member evaluation, much of the administration of the KIDC
is entrusted to the Office of the Chief of Staff.
The primary function of the Office of the Chief of Staff
is the administration of the KIDC; this includes, but is not
limited to:
- Printing and mailing out KIDC info packs and applications.
- Printing and mailing out KIDC recruiting fliers
- Answering questions concerning KIDC (purpose, goals, operation)
- Advising members on recruiting methods and techniques.
- Screening questions concerning Klingon heritage, rites, terminology,
language, lineage and others, and directing the questioner to
the proper source of information.
- Performing tasks that the Ambassador might request in order
to free her schedule:
a) Research
b) Transcribing texts
c) Acquiring pictures and other Klingon related visual aids
d) Writing and phoning individuals to develop diplomatic relations
for the benefit of the KIDC
e) Personal correspondence with individuals or groups to convey
the Ambassador's opinion or stance on certain issues.
The Chief of Staff does not and cannot command individual
members of the Klingon Imperial Diplomatic Corps except within
his/her normal position in the chain of command. However, the
Chief of Staff does respond as the voice of the Ambassador in
matters of KIDC operation. The Chief of Staff has a Personal
Assistant whom is dedicated to assist in fulfilling his/her numerous
duties.
The Chief of Staff is given the authority to speak for the
Ambassador - for this reason, he/she must be in constant contact
with the Ambassador and the Chancellor, remain up to date on
the policies and goals of the KIDC, and must be profoundly loyal
to the Ambassador. Any action by the Chief of Staff that is not
authorized by the Ambassador herself will be considered a breach
of conduct and result in the removal of the individual in question
from the Klingon Imperial Diplomatic Corps and subsequent discommendation
within the Klingon Empire.
