Help: Consul
When a new ruler is crowned, one of their first orders of business is often
to appoint a highly trusted left and right hand man, known as Consuls. Consuls
hold powers nearly on par with the crown, and they serve to assist with
administration of the settlement.
In order to maintain a system of checks and balances, Consuls are subject to
the approval of the elected Magistrates, who have the power to issue a veto
against a Consul. To learn more about the vote power, see HELP VETO.
The crown ruler of a settlement may use CROWN CONSUL <citizen> to appoint
a new Consul, or CROWN UNCONSUL <citizen> to strip an appointed Consul of
their power and position.
Consuls are considered to hold noble rank, and a Consul that maintains
their position for a lengthy period of time (thus demonstrating a strong
government and leadership) will ascend to the title of "Prince/Princess".
Consul may even reach the title of "High King/High Queen", however this
can only occur in the case of the crown ruler reaching the rank of
"Emperor/Empress". To learn more about the noble ranks, see HELP RANKS.
