A disciplinarian is a type of protector headmate who disciplines other headmates with good intentions to promote better behavior.
A disciplinarian might not front to deal with outside threats. It may be a specialty of theirs instead of having to deal with the world. They may hear from another person in command, like the host or a gatekeeper, to punish headmates who may have acted out of line or against system rules. This may allow another protector to focus on external threats, while the disciplinarian punishes inside threats.
