High Zenith Rank/Title in The Realm of Beardsgaard | World Anvil

High Zenith

Requirements

To attain the rank of High Zenith, the previous one must die, and rivals for the position must be subdued or defeated.

Appointment

After the death of a High Zenith, whoever defeats their rivals and claims the title then calls a meeting known as a Dawn Moot of the Elitians to demand their oaths of fealty. There are usually multiple assassination attempts at these moots.

Duties

The High Zenith determines the current goals and alliances of the group, and defends its secrets.

Accoutrements & Equipment

The ceremonial garb of the High Zenith consists of light, airy robes that shimmer white and gold depending on the light, with an intricate golden shoulder piece that sits on the collarbones and rises in a globe up to the top of the head, creating a golden halo. In a similar design, The Golden Staff is crafted of driftwood and topped with a golden cage holding a Sunfire stone.

Grounds for Removal/Dismissal

The High Zenith is in power until their death. Said death by assassination or mysterious accident is not just common, it is rare for any other cause of death for people who attain this title.
