Superintendent

The **Superintendent** is the acting leader of the Association at any given time, the office being held by several gnomes (and a sporeling for a brief time) throughout its lifetime. The rank is held indefinitely, until the Superintendent dies, relinquishes their position or a vote of no confidence is passed. Higher Gnomeregan authorities which the Superintendent answers to also reserve the right to remove a Superintendent from power for any reason, as shown by the termination of Molly Mechasprocket’s leadership due to misplaced PR concerns.

## List of Superintendents to Date

* Brandelwyn Brassfizzle

The first Superintendent is typically regarded as a failure in terms of leadership, though was widely loved among his peers. Brandelwyn eventually resigned after the Association’s re-integration into the Alliance following a long period spent on the run.

* Lexi Fizzlespring

Lexi’s superintendency is noted as the shortest of all, holding the position only for around 12 hours during an interim period where Brandelwyn had left on personal business. He resumed leadership immediately after returning.

* Ermalina Sparkblade

Chosen by those in command in New Tinkertown to reform the Arclight Association after a brief period as a rogue organisation. New order and Alliance loyal policies were introduced with the pardoning of former members. This was a short lived reign until her demise during The Thandol Span Incident.

* Klinkerton Mufflbang

One of the original founders led the Association on their search and recovery of the first superintendent Brandelwyn Brassfizzle. Their reign ended voluntarily with completion of that mission.

* Brandelwyn Brassfizzle (2nd Term)
* Gozwald Lawscribe

Following the questionable second reign of Brandelwyn Brassfizzle. An assigned superintendent was chosen to run Arclight opting for a practice from rule from a distance. This ended with scandal and a loss of prestige for the association.

* Byte Terracoil

The first elected superintendent after the disaster that plagued Arclight under Gozwald Lawscribe. Byte Terracoil would mark the beginning of elected leaders.

* Gembert Flarewhiz
* Wilson

While the previous superintendent laid in a coma recovering from major injuries. Wilson the Sporeling took over much of the daily runnings of the Association behind the scenes with Lyra Steamsmith being the public front of this interim ruling.

* Ermalina Sparkblade (2nd Term)

Marking the first time a knight of the Ebon Blade would lead the Association. Much like her prior time in the role, great focus was made to push the association onwards through many expeditions.

* Pinny

The second elected superintendent of the Arclight association would lead to radical direction changes away from selfish pursuits to a state oversight and funded organisation.

* Molly Mechasprocket
* Quizley Brassfizzle

Chosen by the state during the confusion coming from the Molly and George incident she would lead the association in a new direction focusing on exploration and adventuring until meeting a traumatic injury at the hands of George in Uldum.

* Nyzzie Hopespark

Acting as an interim superintendent after Quizley Brassfizzle went missing in Uldum. Nyzzie would lead the association through the rest of their expedition against George and aided in the recovery of Quizley Brassfizzle and Arclights safe return home.

* Lyra Steamsmith

With the slow recovery of Quizley Brassfizzle proceding with medical aid. Lyra Steamsmith seized control of Arclight in an effort to maintain stable and efficient leadership marking the second time a knight of the Ebon Blade would claim the position.
