Provost of the Torres

The senior leadership of a Torre of Mustoir consists of a group of ten provosts, together with their leader the Archprovost. While officially the Provosts report to the Archprovost, in practice they are typically trusted with near complete control over their domains.

Appointment

Provosts are appointed by the Archprovost from amongst the fellows. They are typically older and more experienced men, although it is not unheard of for others to ascend to the rank. Being a Provost is a busy full time job, and most hold the position for only 5-10 years, choosing to retire back to Fellowships when they have accomplished what they had planned. In rare occasions, individuals have been known to hold multiple Provost roles in their career.

Responsibilities

Provosts undertake the vast majority of the day to day operation of the Torre. There are a number of common roles across all five Torres, with the others being more domain specific expert casters.

Common Role	Responsibilities
Education	Setting the syllabus, timetables and governing the day to day lives of students.
Examination	Setting, organisation and marking of Examinations of the students, which are frequent and challenging.
Services	Operation of the commercial arm of the Torre, including marketing and staff management.
Research	Managing the team of Research Fellows, and the integration of new discoveries into commercial and educational processes.
Tomes	The head "librarian" who collects, maintains and controls access to the range of magical texts of the Torre.
