The Council of Deathtonis

Located in the Citadel of Deathtonis, the Council is considered by many to be a legendary gathering of the greatest men of Olmarin who discuss and rescue the land from the gravest perils. Not to be confused with the Royal Council in Rielle City.

Members
The Council has for years been composed of seven of the greatest men of Olmarin from many walks of life and many races. At their head is the Lord of the Taurin Realm, Arcadis, wisest of them all. He is a man well-versed in the ancient prophecies of Olmarin and with many allies and connections that enable him to see and hear virtually all that happen in the realm.

Most recently added to the ranks of the Council, as per Lord Arcadis's summon, is the politician and nobleman, Thomas Galadan.

The current membership of the Council is as follows:
 * Lord Arcadis Domushalos of Deathtonis
 * Lord Aevyrn of Torrinway
 * Xor the Centaur
 * The Elvenking
 * Orlisi
 * Tarn
 * Thomas Galadan

History
Little is known of the history of the Council until recently. They have long been in session, guarding the realm of Olmarin and guiding it in the path of justice and peace. Their proceedings are held in secret, and great care is taken that the travel to Deathtonis is kept ceremonial but secret. They have been told of as myths and stories told to children at night, and some consider the Council to be nothing more than legend.

Typical Proceedings
Proceedings in the Council are warm as many of the Councilmen are good friends, but the matters they discuss are grave and spoken of with utmost sobriety and urgency. Talk is often very formal and may to an outsider seem vague.

A meeting begins in the keep of Deathtonis, where the Councilmen sit in a circle around a table in the Council chamber. There seems to be no prescribed order, but Lord Arcadis presides over meetings, with questions and answers provided in profusion from all parties involved. Some meetings are even graced with the presence of Lord Arcadis's scrying orb, which he used on occasion to display the events leading up to the proposal of Arcanthor to Queen Alei.
