View source for Loremaster of the Clans

The '''Loremaster of the Clans''' is the most senior of all [[Clan]] [[Loremaster]]s and the most knowledgeable in Clan law, history and society.  They are responsible for managing the proceedings during a meeting of the [[Grand Council]], deciding upon the order of business, calling for votes and rendering judgments on points of law.  Having never held the post of [[Khan]] the Loremaster cannot cast votes in the Grand Council and is expected to be impartial in all judgments, especially with regards to their own Clan.  Partisanship may result in a motion of censure and the Loremaster's removal.<ref>''MechWarrior's Guide to the Clans'', p. 70</ref>

The Clans were split into two major bodies after the [[Wars of Reaving]]: the [[Council of Six]], and those remaining in the [[Clan Homeworlds]]. As of [[3076]], relations between the various Clans of the Council of Six had somewhat cooled, hampering the election of a new Loremaster to replace Kael Pershaw.<ref>''Masters and Minions: The StarCorps Dossiers'', p. 105, "Laurie Tseng"</ref> By [[3087]], however, the position had been filled once more by [[Laurie Tseng]], once Loremaster of Clan Ghost Bear.

By 3090, former [[Clan Cloud Cobra]] [[Galaxy Commander]] [[Julia Danforth]] had been raised to the position within the Homeworlds, presenting the document ''Analysis: The Reavings'' to the Grand Council on 30 December 3090.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving: Supplemental'', p. 2, "Looking Back"</ref>
