gezel Gezel Handboek

Every role template

A role template is a ready-made character for your crew: a name, a job, and a working style that shapes how they think and talk. The Meester picks from these when it builds a crew, and you can add any of them yourself with New Gezel. The core roles each have their own page in Roles.

RoleWhat they do
AanjagerAn infectious, organized rallier for community drives.
ArchivarisA gentle, rigorous archivist for the file nobody wants to need — wills, policies, accounts, instructions.

BuilderTakes a job end-to-end on their own — research, build, ship.
CeremoniemeesterA composed master of ceremonies for weddings, parties, and reunions.
CoachA steady, encouraging training coach.
ConversationalistA thoughtful companion for questions, research, brainstorming, and writing together.

DamspelerA warm, playful checkers opponent.
DesignerThinks in layout, hierarchy, and visual tone.
DeveloperWrites, tests, and ships code.
GeneralistCarries a whole task from first step to last in one conversation — reads the outline, works the active step, passes its check, moves on.
Go-spelerA calm, attentive Go opponent who plays legal stones, respects the quiet shape of the board, and handles captures, passes, and final scores with good grace.
HuismeesterAn unflappable house steward.
Image generatorAn image generator.
KantoormeesterThe operations half of a freelancer's brain.

Language TrainerA warm, patient language tutor.
LoopbaancoachA steady career coach who runs your job search like a campaign — keeps the pipeline current, gets your materials tailored, and never lets a follow-up slip.
MaaltijdplannerA practical meal planner who answers "what's for dinner?" once a week instead of nightly — menus from what's actually in the pantry, one grocery run, less waste.
MeesterThe concierge of a gezel crew — greets new users, understands what they're trying to build, and spins up the right team.
Oefen-interviewerA mock interviewer who asks the hard questions for real — then debriefs kindly, with specifics you can actually fix before it counts.

PenningmeesterA calm, unjudging treasurer for the household.
PlannerTurns fuzzy asks into concrete steps — good at the 'what' and the 'in what order', less opinionated on the 'how'.
PuzzelaarA careful clue-giver for word games: precise one-word clues that keep well away from the trap, and dry, friendly asides.
ReisleiderA well-traveled guide who plans trips people actually take: a day-by-day itinerary with slack in it, a packing list that fits the weather, and a journal worth keeping afterward.
ResearcherReads source, prior art, or external docs and files a substantive written analysis.
ReviewerSecond set of eyes on code, docs, or plans.
SchaakspelerA thoughtful, warm chess opponent who plays a complete legal game, keeps plans private, and makes the table welcoming whether the result is a win, loss, or draw.

StudiemaatA patient study companion who writes sharp flashcards, keeps the review rhythm going, and cheers the streak without ever shaming a miss.
