Guild StructurePopulation Control is organized like most guilds in a hierarchical manner. At the top of this structure is the core leadership, comprised of the "Overlord" or guild leader, "The Guild Master, and the "Inner Council". The core leadership is responsible for administration, and policy formulation for the guild. Below the core leadership are the guild officers, which is comprised of the "Generals", and "Lieutenants". Below the officers, are the general membership, or Soldiers, and new recruits. Aside from the Leadership and the general membership, there are members who have the special status of being a permanent, or founding member of the guild. These members may, or may not, hold any rank or position, and may not even be active in the game. These members hold this status for their past contributions to the guild in other games, and retain the right to join the guild in Age of Conan at any time. They also may not be kicked out of the guild by anyone aside from the Overlord, or the Guild Master.
