Editing Fanon:Deputy Mayor

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Deputy Mayor}}
A '''Deputy Mayor''' is a position found in nearly every village in the [[Raposa]] realm, although it has a different name in each. The role of deputy mayor is less of a monarchy than the [[Mayor (Position)|mayor]] is, and seems to only be appointed when a mayor needs assistance with their duties. The deputy mayor typically acts as an advisor to the mayor and is usually older than them. In [[Rapoville]], if the current mayor does not have a child, the deputy mayor is next in line to be mayor, unless the deputy mayor has died. In this case, an election is held among the villagers to determine the new mayor, although this has not happened yet in any village.

==Rapoville - "Deputy Mayor"==
===Athys===

</div>

[[Fanon:Tegean|Tegean]]'s deputy mayor was [[Fanon:Athys|Athys Courania]], the first deputy mayor of [[Rapoville]]. She was appointed with Tegean and helped Tegean navigate the things [[Fanon:Bavel|her father]] couldn't before turning into [[Crazy Barks]]. Athys was a successful deputy mayor, so much so that the tradition continued through the Rapoville mayors.

===Steven===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">
''Main article: [[Fanon:Steven|Steven]]''
</div>
[[Mayor]]'s deputy mayor was [[Wilfre]]'s father, [[Fanon:Steven|Steven]]. Steven helped Mayor with welcoming new villagers and setting up their residences, along with other mayoral duties. Steven was killed by a [[Shadow]]-possessed [[Fanon:Athys|Athys]] before [[Mari]] was born, leaving the village with no mayoral successor. Wilfre uses this as a point in his argument with Mayor about drawing in the Book of Life. 

===Circi===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">
''Main article: [[Circi]]''
</div>
[[Mari]]'s deputy mayor was [[Circi]]. Circi helped Mari relieve tension when items in the village began to go missing, and was also the one to first believe that [[Wilfre]] had returned. Circi abused her role as deputy mayor, as she was able to complete her mission of gathering the [[Artifacts of Power]] under the guise of preventing Wilfre's attack. She eventually revealed her true self to the Raposa by creating the [[Giant Scribble Monster]], although the monster presumably killed her.

==Starlite Grove - "Assistant"==
===Hanniel===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">
''Main article: [[Fanon:Hanniel|Hanniel]]''
</div>

[[Fanon:Elkanah|Elkanah]]'s assistant was [[Fanon:Hanniel|Hanniel]]. Not much is known about Hanniel's duties or legacy, but he was acting as mayoral assistant during [[Fanon:Bavel|Bavel]]'s visit to the Starlite Grove. Hanniel and [[Fanon:Sariah|Sariah]] were the inspirations for [[Rapoville]] to adopt the deputy mayor position.

==Rapocity - "Ambassador"==
===Sariah===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">

</div>

[[Fanon:Ibrahim|Ibrahim]]'s ambassador was [[Fanon:Sariah|Sariah]]. Not much is known about Sariah's duties or legacy, but she was acting as mayoral ambassador during [[Fanon:Bavel|Bavel]]'s time as [[Mayor (Position)|mayor]]. Sariah and [[Fanon:Hanniel|Hanniel]] were the inspirations for [[Rapoville]] to adopt the deputy mayor position.

==Watersong - "Butler"==
==={{Icon|ButlerHead}} Butler===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">
''Main article: [[Butler]]''
</div>
[[Rose]]'s butler was [[Butler]]. Butler handled all of Rose's affairs while she had lost her voice and seems to be a father figure for [[Miles]]. He is also heavily involved with [[Lavasteam]] and trade, seeing as he recognized [[Fanon:Eeny|Eeny]] and [[Fanon:Meeny|Meeny]], asking them first if they were there to trade. When Rose died and passed on the mayor position to Miles, Butler stepped down from his role as Butler, and the mantle was filled by Meeny. Butler is currently the only known Deputy Mayor figure that has stepped down due to the mayor changing, not death or escape.

==={{Icon|MeenyHead}} Meeny===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">

</div>
[[Miles]]'s butler was [[Fanon:Meeny|Meeny]]. Although not much is known about Meeny's actions as butler, it is known that he was Miles' step-father, which may have been the reason Miles chose him. Eventually, Meeny dies, leaving Miles without a Butler.

==Lavasteam - "Advisor"==
==={{Icon|SalemHead}} Salem===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">
''Main article: [[Salem]]''
</div>
[[Miney]]'s advisor was [[Wilfre]], under the guise of [[Salem]]. Salem manipulated Miney into believing that he was a diplomat from a foreign village that had lost its color, although his act did not sway [[Fanon:Eeny|Eeny]], [[Fanon:Meeny|Meeny]], or [[Moe]], causing Miney to exile the first two from [[Lavasteam]], and causing Salem to trap Moe in a cave. Salem stopped being Miney's advisor after setting off the [[Giant Robosa]] and fleeing from the village.

===Lock===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">
''Main article: [[Fanon:Lock|Lock]]''
</div>
[[Russet]]'s advisor was [[Fanon:Lock|Lock]], who is also [[Key]]'s son. Lock has not been seen doing much to help Russet or the village, but he came with Russet to confront [[Fanon:Robigo|Robigo]] when she first appeared in Lavasteam. Lock was also valuable help in the battle against [[Fanon:Salem Rose|Salem Rose]], although he was put in critical condition after the battle.

==The Wasteland - "Deputy Mayor"==
===[[File:MariThumb.png|link=Mari|25px]] Mari===

''Main article: [[Mari]]''
</div>

[[Wilfre]]'s second-in-command was [[Mari]]. She performed many of Wilfre's duties while working with him, including destroying the [[Book of Life]], leading [[Jowee]] into an uncolored cave, and persuading Jowee to join Wilfre. However, after seeing the error of her ways, she quit the position and helped defeat Wilfre.

Ironically, [[Fanon:Steven|Steven]]'s deputy mayor was [[Mayor]]. After both dying and appearing on [[Fanon:The Wasteland|The Wasteland]], Steven was appointed mayor by the ghosts, and he chose Mayor as his deputy. Together, they are known for the Housing Project and joining the [[Fanon:Creator's Alliance|Creator's Alliance]].

==New Market - "Deputy Mayor"==
===Deputy Mayor Bush===

</div>

[[Fanon:Mayor Simmons|Mayor Simmons]]' deputy mayor was [[Fanon:Deputy Mayor Bush|Deputy Mayor Bush]]. The two of them travelled the [[:wikipedia:Oregon Trail|Oregon Trail]] and set up the colony of [[Fanon:New Market|New Market]], which would eventually become [[Belleview]]. Not much is known about his duties or legacy in the [[Drawn to Life series|Drawn to Life universe]].

==Shadow Village - "Deputy Mayor"==
==={{Icon|RedDragonHead}} Red Dragon===
<div style="margin-left: 15px;">
''Main article: [[Fanon:Red Dragon|Red Dragon]]''<br>
</div>

While not a deputy mayor in the traditional sense, within [[Fanon:The Void|The Void]], [[Fanon:Red Dragon|Red Dragon]] acted as deputy mayor to [[Fanon:Gingerfre (GuyThatExists)|Gingerfre]]. Their leadership styles often conflicted, bringing [[Fanon:Shadow Mari|Shadow Mari]] into the leadership team eventually. After Gingerfre claims that she would never be a [[Shadow]], she resigns from the position, only moments before her death at the hands of [[Fanon:Tombstone|Tombstone]].

=={{Icon|Question}}Trivia==
* It does not seem like a [[Mayor (Position)|mayor]] can appoint a second deputy mayor should their first choice die or leave office, as [[Mayor]] has no deputy mayor in ''[[Drawn to Life]]'', and [[Mari]] does not have a deputy mayor in ''[[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]]''.
* It is currently unknown if [[Treetop Village]], [[Shadow City]], and [[Galactic Jungle]] have deputy mayors or deputy mayor equivalents.
