Roles in Crucible
Author
The author is the person primarily responsible for acting on the outcomes of the review. In the vast majority of cases the author will be the person who made the code change under review.
Creator/Moderator
The creator is the person who creates the review. In most cases this person will also act as moderator. The moderator is the person responsible for creating the review, approving the review, determining when reviewing is finished, summarising the outcomes and closing the review. By default, the moderator is the creator. See also author, the person whose changes to the code are to be reviewed.
Reviewer
A reviewer is a person assigned to review the change. Reviewers can make comments and indicate when they have completed their review. The moderator and author are implicitly considered to be participants of the review, but are not reviewers.
User
A user is a person using Crucible.

Is there a way for one Creator/Moderator's draft PR to be "started" by another person on the team? Thank you.

I just learned something new today! I already am in the Edit Review Details permission, so I didn't know I could make myself become the Moderator for another's draft PR. I should then be able to click on Start Review. I will try this out later today.
