Baron

This is actually the only universal title currently used by the Anarch Movement, with regard to the political arena. By its simplest definition, a baron is simply the Anarch Movement's equivalent of a prince. The anarchs - or at least, those anarchs smart enough to have gained some experience without winding up on the wrong end of a stake or a sunrise - know that any territory with even a modest Kindred population requires someone to moderate it.

An anarch baron normally isn't one for passing a great number of policies; again, he must avoid the appearance of dictating the behavior of those below him. Instead, most of his time is devoted to mediating conflicts and disputes between Kindred, orchestrating agreements with other local Kindred leaders (both within the movement and other sects) and enforcing those traditions - the anarchs aren't so stupid as to bring the wrath of the mortal world down upon them - that even the anarchs must obey.

Sweeper

The barons themselves prefer to call a vampire who holds this position a counter or even a census-taker, but most anarchs use the terms sweeper, proctor, Sherlock or even on occasion, abacus. The plethora of names, some of which border on comical, certainly suggest that the anarchs don't take these kindred seriously. It's true, they don't, but their mockery, while genuine, is tinged with more than a little fear for what these vampires could come to represent.

Barons in anarch-dominated territory don't have much luck when it comes to the Tradition of Hospitality. At any given time, a baron is fortunate to know the identity of half the Kindred currently occupying a domain. Some barons have accepted that as the way things are, but others have developed the office of counter - or the sweeper - to rectify the problem.

Emissary

This is actually an informal title; emissaries are also called ambassadors, heralds, and by more cynical members of the sect, expendables. The Anarch Movement is surrounded by enemies or at least rivals. In most cities, the anarchs intermingle with the Camarilla Kindred around them. On the West Coast, the remains of the Free State will struggle to retain its independence, or else has already been subsumed into the Cathayans' New Promise Mandarinate. Nomadic coteries sometimes find themselves deep in Sabbat territory, with precious little room for error or escape.
