The Kennet Others are a group of Others (and a few Practitioners) who have formed a sanctuary within the town of Kennet, Ontario.

Governance[edit]

The Kennet Others vote on important matters, with each individual or group getting one vote. There is also an elected leader who handles various matters; this role is currently filled by Sir Toadswallow. Toadswallow, alongside past leaders Miss and Matthew Moss, form a loose Council to provide leadership to the Kennet Others.

Present and past leaders of the Kennet Others are as follows:

Toadswallow (summer 2020-present)
Matthew Moss and Edith James (spring-summer 2020)
Miss (-spring 2020)

Members[edit]

Membership in the Kennet community is decided by existing members of the community. In addition to the members listed here, there are a number of Others in Kennet who are not members of the community (see Kennet#Others).

Practitioners[edit]

The Kennet Trio were Awakened in order to serve as the Practitioners for the community. This role was formerly performed by Charles Abrams until he was forsworn.

Kennet Council[edit]

Inactive members[edit]

Members from the beginning, but currently serving a minimal role in the community<ref>Inactives: O.G. Others who have a limited role or no role at all, for reasons. - excerpt from Keeping Tabs, Kennet</ref>

Newer members[edit]

After the fall of the Perimeter, the Kennet Others recruited a slate of new members on a probationary basis. After the end of summer, many of these members were given a full vote as members of the community.<ref name="council-amendment">Council Amendment:
Votes have been simplified. Those who stayed & helped and who have been with us for 2+ months get a full vote now. Sponsorships are being shifted around and changed to a kind of babysitting duty, for very new members & problem Others. Half votes are for new members and those on probation: Freak & Squeak, Cig, new goblins (by their choice), and Reggie. - excerpt from Keeping Tabs, Kennet</ref>

Probationary members[edit]

Originally, probationary membership was to last two years, with members gaining a half-vote after the first year and a full vote after the second year.<ref>Every new member has two sponsors. If new members come & there are no issues after one year then they become half members for one year (half vote each) and full members a year after. - excerpt from New Other Correspondence #1</ref> After the end of summer, the approach to probationary membership was modified; members get a half vote during their first two months and a full vote thereafter.<ref name="council-amendment" />
