The bridge between The Church and the Foreign Service, the Concordian Consular acts as the foreign arm of the Church, dealing with foreign priests (heretic or otherwise) and understanding foreign religions. They advise the Concordian ambassadors and other title holders on matters of religion (both The Concord’s and foreigners) and ensures that The Church, Senate and Foreign Service is equipped to safeguard the souls of The Concord both at home and abroad.
Election
The Concordian Consular is elected by the Council of Six at their first meeting during the Autumn Summit. They require a majority vote within the Council. Candidates may come from any Realm but must be recognised as a priest within The Concordian Church of the Divine Spheres.
Term
The Concordian Consular serves a term of one year, including the Summit where they are elected. They may immediately stand for re-election after this term if they wish. There is no term limit.
Powers and Responsibilities
Soul Guardian – The Concordian Consular is empowered to call for Inquisitions on members of the Foreign Service. The Concordian Consular may call for one inquisition on any Concordian Ambassador, Minister of Foreign Affairs or Spymaster per Summit without requiring a motion be passed. The Concordian Consular should inform the Curate who will provide them with a writ of Inquisition to be served. While the Concordian Consular can only use this power once per summit, they may call for any other number of inquisitions through ordinary means.
Expert – The Concordian Consular will receive information from the Civil Service regarding matters of foreign religion if and when this information becomes available. This will not be a regular updates but The Concordian Consular should be prepared to receive these briefings and action them if required.
Advisor to the Council – The Concordian Consular is an essential advisor to the Council of Six. They are expected to make themselves or a proxy available to each official meeting of The Council, where they are expected to answer questions to the best of their ability.
Member – The Concordian Consular is an essential advisor to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and other members of the Foreign Service. While they do have an obligation to the Council of Six (which takes precedence) they are included in the Minister of Foreign Affairs' power of Overseer, and therefore have a de facto right to information pertaining to the office of the Minister and their duties.
History
The role of the Concordian Consular was created in Autumn (then Winter) 224 by the Civil Service in an attempt to remove barriers between the Foreign Service and Church that had caused issues over a number of years.
