Council of Elders

Home / Factions / Council of Elders

The Council of Elders is the ruling body of Torch City and is formed by 8 council-members, elected for life by popular vote. Places on the Council are vacated by resignation or death, but it is customary for council-members to remove themselves voluntarily from the council when they reach the age of retirement. The Council is split between the Technomage and the Lit factions and is presided by rotation, with each member taking on the chairman responsabilities on a yearly basis.

Alignment
At the time of Amber's coming of age, most of the council-members have already vowed their allegiance to one of the factions:


 * Technomages - 4 chairs
 * The Lit - 3 chairs
 * Undecided - 1 chair

The current chairman of the Council is council-member Ryoto, one of The Lit and a firm preponent of the movement to turn the city back to more pious ways and sterner laws.
