==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
The [[Imperial Senate]] governs the Empire, and its authority extends to all areas of Imperial life not already covered by the other houses of government. Each summit the [[senator|senators]] meet several times to deliberate and vote on the [[Senate motion|motions]] they have raised. | |||
After the summit the civil service enact those motions, and ensure a public record of each is made available to the citizens of the Empire. This page lists all the motions raised during the summit, along with the [[Senate announcement|announcements]] made by citizens with [[Imperial title|Imperial titles]]. In each case, the motion and its effects are summarized including the wording; who proposed and seconded it; whether it passed or not; whether any funds were disbursed to support it; and what the outcome of the motion will be. | |||
Many motions (especially the [[commission|commissions]]) also have a ''Further Details'' section that provides a link to a wiki page dealing specifically with that motion in more detail, any commentary from the [[Scrutiny|Constitutional Court]], progress on commissions, or expanded information about the outcome of the motion. | |||

"The Pelican Tower is the fifth project of Red Raven Holdings, a building society specialising in the construction of sinecures. | |||
Upstream from Rodez and along the banks of the tranquil Gancio, the Pelican Tower stands like a lonely lighthouse, to guide travellers by both boat and road. The white-washed walls gleam in the sunlight and can be seen for miles amongst the vineyards and olive groves of northern Sarvos. Situated as it is along a natural ley line, it serves as both a source of natural mana and also as comfortable lodgings for the Carta Bellamarina, one of the most ancient of Caricomare Guilds. Carved above the entrance is Bellamarina’s Crest, a white pelican on a shield of Burgundy and Turquoise, representing the Carta’s motto “By Blood and Brine”. | |||
The ground floor hosts a spacious meeting place for the Carta, filled with memorabilia from its past, leaving visitors in no doubt that of their exquisite handiwork in chandlery, sailmaking, ironwork, ropemaking and their history of investing in shipping. A beautifully hand-crafted model of one of the Carta’s largest ships adorns a table in the centre of the main lobby, carved with nautical patterns of compasses and distant shores. Within the back chambers, an old, stone fireplace dredged from the Bay of Catazar, dominates the room. It originally belonged to the old Guild Palace from the Caricomare which sank during the flooding 45 years ago and now stands as a monument to persistence. Paintings of the new Guild Palace embellish the walls. | |||
The upper levels can be reached by a graceful spiral staircase that winds its way along the inner walls, brining the weary traveller to the sleeping quarters. On the first landing visitors have to navigate their way past the watchful eye of Madame Delphine Emmanuelle Svorsa, the grand dame of the guild, within a floor to ceiling portrait. A cambion, she has an unmistakeable countenance. The sleeping quarters are comfortable and serviceable, a welcome retreat for Carta members to escape from the bustle of the city. | |||
Further still can be found the quarters of the custodian of the tower, responsible for its maintenance and collecting the valuable mana that can be found within. At the top of the tower, gleaming foci of mithril stream light blazing into a chamber at the very heart of the uppermost room. A constant glow emits from the chamber, christening its local name as the lantern room and further enhancing its image of a lighthouse. The mana pools within the central chamber and crystalises in a pure white variant, almost as if it had captured the sun." | |||
Cheers, | |||

The Imperial Senate is to govern the Empire.
Overview
The Imperial Senate governs the Empire, and its authority extends to all areas of Imperial life not already covered by the other houses of government. Each summit the senators meet several times to deliberate and vote on the motions they have raised.
After the summit the civil service enact those motions, and ensure a public record of each is made available to the citizens of the Empire. This page lists all the motions raised during the summit, along with the announcements made by citizens with Imperial titles. In each case, the motion and its effects are summarized including the wording; who proposed and seconded it; whether it passed or not; whether any funds were disbursed to support it; and what the outcome of the motion will be.
Many motions (especially the commissions) also have a Further Details section that provides a link to a wiki page dealing specifically with that motion in more detail, any commentary from the Constitutional Court, progress on commissions, or expanded information about the outcome of the motion.
Treasury
- Imperial treasury during this season announced by the civil service at 2612 thrones and 2 crowns

Two administrative motions raised by the Constitutional Court were presented during the Spring Equinox.
