New Elder Council.

The Elder Council, commonly known as the New Elder Council; is the governing legislative and administrative body of the New Tamriellic Empire. The Council is made up of the Lord Commander, Lord High Chancellor, the Imperial Arch Mage, the Imperial Steward, the Chief Councillor, Advisors known as Councillors, and the Emperor/Empress of Tamriel themselves.

The reigning Grand Regent, Talonius, governs the Council with a great degree of power not seen since the reign of Uriel VI and Empress Morihatha. As the Empire is currently under a emergency military government; the Council acts as the senior body which commands the Armed Forces and regulates the economy.

Founding & Early Years
The New Elder Council was created by the Regent in 205 4E, in order to govern the Empire during the Years of Rearmament; as well as providing some semblance of a stable government over the chaotic northern provinces of Tamriel; which the Empire currently controls. Many of the senior members of Talionius' court as High King were given the highest positions in this new council.
