The Council of Five Regents

The Council of five regents is a group of five provincial governors who serve beneath The Emperor and his two Hands. These governors have absolute authority over their region outside of The Emperor and his Hand's say so. Most of these individuals were named Regents at the founding of Nosferia. They govern their territories and preside over the high courts of each region. Together they advise The Emperor and report on the state of each region. Emelia Valcov, Morris Vale, Batu Acharya, Lady Penelope, and Dimitri Pschiole are the five regents of Nosferia. Most of them served in some capacity during the Unification War save for Morris Vale, who took over his position after Nosferia's founding. Four out of the five of them are vampires, while Lady Penelope remains the only Lycanthrope amongst them.
