The Small Council

The Small Council is the cabinet of the King of the Holy Ruptured Empire.   Consists of
  • Hand of the King: Belobog Ziemniak, chairs the small council, serves as the King's proxy during his absences.
  • Master of War: Vacant
  • Master of Coin: Alfered 'Phantom Lord' Hawthorne, the realm's chief treasurer and bookkeeper.
  • Master of Whisperers: Stallenno 'The Cobra', the realm's chief intelligence advisor and spymaster, supervising covert activities and information gathering, both at home and abroad.
  • Master of Laws: Elden of Aedirnia, the realm's chief legal advisor, who also manages the Stoirm Keep's dungeons, and supervises law enforcement.
  • Master of Ships: Hrovvar 'The Barbarian' son of Anthar, the realm's chief naval officer, supervising the Royal Fleet and coordinating the realm's maritime defenses.
  • Lord Commander of the Kingsguard: Harald 'The Exile of Na Iseldur' Santagar , the realm's chief military advisor, particularly in regards to land-based warfare. While the King personally appoints knights to the Kingsguard at his whim, once chosen they are lifetime appointments, which cannot legally be removed. In theory, however, a King may demote the Lord Commander back to being a regular member, and elevate one of the other six Kingsguard to Lord Commander (though it is unknown if this has ever happened).
  • Grand Maester: Davith 'Grand Maester' Wyne the maester assigned to the Stoirm Keep, and thus to the realm. Like all maester assignments, the Grand Maester is appointed by the Conclave of Archmaesters at the Citadel, not the King. While controversial, the King and the Hand of the King have the authority to exclude the Grand Maester from the Small Council, and even imprison him, but cannot replace him as Grand Maester. This makes the Grand Maester unique as the only member of the council not specifically chosen by the King.
  • Member for Zima Krol-Kon: Ser Koschel Ziemniak, a position created by Richard Anglohr, to ensure the loyalty and give reward to Zima Krol-Kon for joining his rebellion and the HRE, when they were independent.
