Ambassador to Axos
Overview
The Ambassador to Axos is an Imperial title. It is an Imperial position appointed by the Imperial Senate.
After several years of wrangling, an embassy to the citadels of Axos was commissioned by the Imperial Senate during the Summer Solstice 380YE, and work began almost immediately in Urizen. Built in the port-town of Cargo, in Redoubt, construction was completed in a timely fashion and the Axou ambassador and their staff took residence shortly before the Autumn Equinox. With the opening of the embassy, the Axou in turn opened the port of Towers of Kantor to Imperial shipping. Closer ties between the two nations also saw a significant increase in the number of black-sailed vessels calling at Imperial ports not only on the Bay of Catazar, but also in Dawnish and Varushkan ports on the Semmerlak.
Responsibilities
The ambassador is expected to represent the Empire in relations with the people of Axos. They have all the responsibilities common to an Imperial ambassador.

Axou Merchants
The embassy in Cargo means that the ambassador enjoys the benefits of mercantile support from traders keen to curry their favour. As a ministry, this allows them to purchase quantities of special materials at a set price. The ambassador spends their money and makes their choices during downtime from their character page. Money is removed from, and resources are placed into, the character's inventory when the downtime is processed.
