Council Makeup and Authority

The Regency Council is the highest authority in the empire, charged with maintaining the empire until a new emperor takes the throne.

The council meets in the Hidden City and is made up of one representative of each of the twelve kingdoms. There are a couple of ex officio members of the council as well, although they technically do not have a vote, and are not referred to as "Regents".

How each kingdom chooses its regent is left up to the individual kingdoms. Some are appointed by their respective monarchs, some are shuffled on a regular basis.

Council Members

Currently known members of the council are:

Voting Representatives

  1. Ishii Makoto, Ti Wren's brother, is the regent from the Butterfly Kingdom. He was appointed shortly after Ti Wren's marriage.
  2. Qin Chao Steppes
  3. Roof of the World - A serious crane, she noticed the "battle between light and dark" in Revelations, and traded some votes for the briefing that it's a fight over turning into the Spider Empire.
  4. Shrouded Isle: Kusuhara Romi
  5. Iron Mountain
  6. Jade Taiga: Zi Miro Khan (who was encountered at a distance in Shadow Puppets)
  7. Forest of Chin
  8. Hon'eth Arcade A major player in the Illuminocracy mechanic, Master Deng defended him from an honor duel for a vote or two.
  9. Hidden City vice-mayor
  10. Strand Happily trades votes for secrets. No one else waits in her waiting room when you arrive, and you enter her office through the secret door, not the visible one. She already knew about the "making it the spider empire" plan, but took the Lobster vs. Speedy story for a not-too-close vote.
  11. Savanna of Tears "I don't trade votes. Give me military information." But we kinda liked him.
  12. Illuminated Precincts

Ex Officio Members

  1. The Obsidian Warlord
  2. Mayor of the Hidden City
