LEGO City Architecture Society

The **LEGO City Architecture Society** is a fraternal organization. Besides for the grandmaster and senior fellows, members are put into three different groups

* Apprentice
* Journeyman
* Skilled Architect

The organization was founded during the 14th LEGO City Council by Minch Yoda.

## Architectural Cabin

The Architectural cabin is the meeting place of the architects. To enter, one must know the secret password, given to them by a senior fellow. The password is "build."

At the front center of the cabin is the dais where the grandmaster sits. To the grandmaster's left is a table where the two senior fellows will sit. Throughout the cabin other members will sit with a stage at the back. To the grandmaster's right is the forge where architects will craft.

During a meeting at the cabin, members will elect officers or aspiring architects, work at improving their craft, or organize social events.

### Joining a cabin

Aspiring architects will announce their intentions to one of the two senior fellows. The senior fellow will then announce the candidate's intentions at the next meeting of the society. At the meeting the grandmaster will choose to approve or deny the candidate. If the grandmaster approves them, then the entire group will vote. If the candidate is accepted then the senior fellow will meet with them shortly after and give them the password. They will then be invited to the next meeting and initiated by the grandmaster. At the initiation, they are required to take an obligation to be a good architect, keep architectural secrets from outsiders, and help fellow architects in trouble. They will then forge their first craft to show their skill level and be assigned to one of the three ranks. So far, 75% of all architect hopefuls have been approved for membership.

## Ranks

In the society, there are three major ranks, those being "apprentice, journeyman, and skilled architect". A member is assigned one of these ranks upon joining after forging their first craft. The grandmaster will judge their skill level and assign their rank. The apprentice is the lowest rank, followed by journeyman. A skilled architect is the highest ordinary rank achieved by an architect. An apprentice will choose a journeyman to be their supervisor and in turn a journeyman will choose a skilled architect. One can move up the ranks by showing their improved skills to the grandmaster. There are also ceremonies for moving up different ranks, where the architect is entrusted with the secret knowledge including passwords and handshakes that go with their rank.

Besides for the ordinary ranks, the two most elderly architects will become "senior fellows", who are higher than skilled apprentices and instead represent the order to outsiders. An aspiring architect will have to contact a senior fellow before joining. Finally, the grandmaster is elected by the cabin once every council and is usually the most senior architect. The grandmaster dons a red cape, red generals pad, and wields both a sword and a spear. They sit at the center of the cabin on a dais.
