The Golden Chancellor
Qualifications
Those picked to be the Right Hand are put through vigorous mental examinations to ensure that only the smartest are selected for the position.
Requirements
Prospective Right Hands must be human and preferably Centrum and male. Any applicants must also be above the age of 30.
Appointment
The Right Hand is appointed in a small ceremony where The Golden Ruler will appoint the chancellor privately.
Duties
The Right Hand must make sure that the staff around the Golden Palace are happy and working hard.
Responsibilities
The Golden Chancellor is in charge of domestic issues, mostly law and order. The Right Hand is often the one coming up with new laws and the punishments that go with them, along with running the dungeons in the Palace.
Benefits

Grounds for Removal/Dismissal
The only way for a Right Hand to be removed is to be dismissed by the Golden Ruler.
History
Originally, the Golden One held total authority over his empire, but after the Bread Riots, he realized that he was not good at logistics or running a government, so he hired advisers to help in this regard. The Golden Chancellor was one of those advisers. The position stayed stagnant during the Golden One's rule, but when his successor took over, the Right Hand of the time, Declan Ross, slowly started taking more and more power for himself.
Cultural Significance
The implementation of the Golden Council led to the Golden Empire stabilizing. Most people view the Golden Chancellor as a cruel person who loves to torture people. Other cultures find it odd to have a person's role devoted entirely law administration.
