 ## Activist
+## Ambassador / Bard
+Not necessarily a member of any specific hackerspace, but someone travelling between different ones, sharing stories, tools, projects, tips and gossip. Usually wielding some musical instrument and with an ability to make people open over a mug of beer.

 ## Biologist
+Being fed up with the University's passiveness someone wants to try - or teach others to really do something with their knowledge about biology or chemistry. They start with simple [PCRs](http://openpcr.org/) or [centrifuges](https://diybio.org/2012/06/11/dremelfuge-classic/). Usually really excited they're doing something "off the grid". Rarely Grinders or Cooks.

 Currently not planned in Glider.
+## Community Organizer / Cat Herder
+Not every Space has them, but this person usually "runs" the space: handles legal status, tries to resolve conflicts and dramas, comes up with hackathon ideas and organizes most of the events. Sometimes it's the same person as [[characters:archetypes#garbage_woman|Garbage Woman]].
+Personally I'd like not to have a single person fulfilling that role, but rather a dynamic balance between (Adam)[characters:main:adam], [Robert](characters:main:robert) and [Amanda](characters:main:amanda). To read more, see subpage [Why not cat herder?](characters:archetypes:cat_herder)

 ## Father
+Usually a former active member, now attends the Space with his kids. He wants to teach them how to learn hands-on, not only at a school desk. Usually has very little time, dropping by no more often than once a week. Sometimes makes money by using his Space-acquired skills.
