You do not need to be authorized to be a waterbearer. We prefer that you
work with the official Waterbearer for the event. He or she will make sure
you know the rules for the day. When you may enter a list field, what to
do if someone puts the water bottle head in their mouth, ...
We are currently reviving the Waterbearer's Guild. It will operate under
the Chirurgeon's Guild (waterbearers report to the chirurgeons), but has
its own Kingdom Waterbearer office. There will be a short (about 30 minutes)
class on sanitation, rules, and organization. Those who take the class will
be Journeyman Waterbearers and entitled to wear a blue baldric with the
Waterbearer's badge on it. We expect those people to run the waterbearing
at events.
A Journeyman Waterbearer is not required at any event and they have
no authority over the Autocrats or whomever the Autocrat chooses to
waterbear. However, they will make themselves available. As an Autocrat,
I would choose someone who wanted to do it and who had instruction in
doing it well and who (probably) had experience in doing it.
That was probably much more than you wanted, but my two cents worth.
