+Whereas we acknowledge the need for a consistent, unified creative
+vision, the undersigned agree to establish the office of Project
+Director as defined by the [terms](#terms) of this document.
+
+# Terms
+
+## Scope
+
+1. A Project Director is the creative director of a single project, and
+   not necessarily any other projects.
+
+2. Each project may have no more than one creative director. A project
+   need not have a creative director.
+
+3. A Project Director may only be [elected](#election) as defined here.
+
+4. A Project Director's [role](#role) only applies to the project
+   which they direct. Likewise, a Project Director is only beholden to
+   the creative body of the project which they direct.
+
+5. The creative body of a project is the subset of members of the
+   Intrusive Thoughts collective who have agreed to work on the given
+   project.
+
+6. A "project" here refers to a single game (or other piece of media) in
+   development. A game and its sequel are considered two different
+   projects.
+
+## Role
+
+1. A Project Director makes decisions about the creative direction of
+   the project which they direct. All members of the creative body are
+   asked to abide by the creative decisions made by the Project
+   Director.
+
+2. While other members of the creative body will naturally make
+   creative decisions about the project in the course of their work,
+   any such decision may be overruled by the Project Director.
+
+3. The creative body may collectively reject any decision made by the
+   Project Director with a two-thirds supermajority veto.
+
+
+## Election
+
+1. Any member of the creative body may call for the election of a
+   Project Director at any time when the project has no acting Project
+   Director.
+
+   1. After an election for Project Director is held, another election
+      may not be called for a period of three weeks, or until the
+      office has been vacated, whichever comes first.
+
+2. The election shall be called by creating an election via
+   [RCV123](https://www.rcv123.org/election/open/create/1) and
+   immediately posting the ballot link in the *#announcements*
+   Discord channel.
+
+   1. The title of the election shall be "Vote for the Director of
+      [project]" where [project] is the name or temporary name of the
+      project.
+
+   2. The election's candidates shall be the names of each member of
+      the project's creative body, plus an additional option of "None"
+      to indicate the preference that the office remain unfilled.
+
+   3. The election shall be configured as follows:
+      - Duplicate Vote Deterrence is ON
+      - Randomize candidate ballot order
+      - Start voting: when voters receive link
+      - End voting: election remains open
+
+3. 24 hours after the election link is posted, if at least 50% of the
+   creative body has voted in the election, then the winning candidate
+   shall immediately assume the office of Project Director.
+
+## Abdication
+
+1. A Project Director may choose to abdicate the position of Project
+   Director at any time, for any reason, including no reason, by
+   posting a message in the *#announcements* channel announcing that
+   they are abdicating the position, after which the position of
+   Project Director shall immediately be considered vacated.
+
+2. A Project Director shall automatically abdicate the position of
+   Project Director upon leaving (or being removed from) the project's
+   creative body and/or the Intrusive Thoughts collective.
+
+## Recall
+
+1. Any member of the creative body may call for the recall of the
+   acting Project Director at any time.
+
+   1. After holding a recall vote for an acting Project Director,
+      another recall vote for that same Project Director may not be
+      called for a period of one week.
+
+2. The recall vote shall be called by creating a poll in the
+   *#announcements* Discord channel.
+
+   1. The poll's title shall be "Should [director] be recalled as
+      Director of [project]?" where [director] is the name of the
+      acting Project Director in question and [project] is the name of
+      the project.
+
+   2. The poll's options shall be "Yes, they should not be Director"
+      and "No, they should continue being Director". (Pronouns may be
+      changed to respect the director in question)
+
+   3. The poll's duration shall be 24 hours.
+
+   4. The poll shall NOT allow multiple answers.
+
+3. At the close of the poll, if at least 60% of the creative body (not
+   just the voting body) has voted "Yes, they should not be Director",
+   then the acting Project Director in question shall be immediately
+   recalled and the position of Project Director shall be considered
+   vacated.
