Advisor on the Vallorn

Revision as of 14:26, 22 October 2014

The Advisor on the Vallorn is an Imperial title that may be held by any Navarr. The position was established by majority vote of the Senate in Spring 378YE.

The title is responsible for advising the Senate on matters relating to the vallorn, and protecting the Empire from the influence of this mysterious force or entity.

Powers

Historical Research

The advisor has the power to authorize a single historical research request each season. Each request costs 5 Thrones. The civil service is able to process up to five research requests in total per season - research requests authorized by the Senate, the advisor or the Minister of Historical Research all count against this limit. The results of the research are compiled by the civil service then presented to the advisor.

To use this power, the Advisor provides an announcement to the Civil Service, who present the decision to the Imperial Senate. No voting is possible by the Senate at this point, as the power has been delegated to the Advisor. The Imperial Synod may, however, choose to exercise their veto over the advisor's decision.

Right of Address

The Advisor on the Vallorn has the right to make an address to the Senate once per summit. This is intended to allow them to present important information for the Senators consideration. It is extremely impolite not to inform the Speaker's seat of your intention to use the Right of Address in advance of a session.

The advisor speaks to the Senate, but is often prepared to offer expert assistance to anyone who needs it.

Declaration of Interdiction

Once per summit, the Advisor on the Vallorn can raise a Declaration of Interdiction to the agenda of a Conclave session without spending crystal mana. They follow all other rules and guidelines for submitting an article for the Conclave agenda (it must be in advance, with the assistance of a civil servant, and they are responsible for any presentation).

Appointment

Th advisor is a Navarr National Position appointed by the Senate. Under normal circumstances it will be appointed by unanimous vote of the Navarr Senators.

Because this is a National position, the title can only be held by a Navarr.

Removal

The minister can be revoked by the Navaar National Assembly, the General Assembly and the Assembly of Nine of the Imperial Synod.
