The Councils and Control
There are two Councils on the Island of Mythia. The two councils were formed just before they were trapped on the island over disagreements in how they should proceed. After the island was cursed, it was these two councils and their ideas that led the island to civil war. A treaty was finally reached as they realized they were about to destroy their island. The councils were never able to fully resolve their disagreements but figured out how to live together at least for the time being. The Two Councils are the Elder and the Remnant councils.

OOC JOB DESCRIPTION

In roleplay we love to determine how our characters think and feel. It is part of that storytelling process. The Role of the council members are a little different as the two different council already have set thoughts. We have chosen for our story to separated the council based on their beliefs. For those wishing to play a council member, they will need to determine which side their characters.
For this story we have defined the basics of those thoughts but it is up to you how far or passionate you character is about it. That being said trying to make yourself neutral will result in being kicked off the council. There is two much history at this point in the story for them to finally find a true compromise. There is still anger and resentment because of the history. Although some Mythians aren't the best at hiding those feelings.

The Councils can influence laws over the areas they are in charge of. There fore over time, they found it necessary to hide their identities as the humans would constantly petition for them to find in their favor. At first it was humorous and then it became annoying. The original council always met with Mask. The Elder and Remnant Council adopted this practice once again. The mask when seen by humans make them think of The Ancient Gods they left behind. Another practice that the Council use is the change of name. They went back to their old titles. The titles the Ancient Gods use as their names. The councils are the only ones permitted to use these names. During meetings these names are used instead of their Mythian name. As Mythians and Humans were not permitted to use these names in town, it helped keep Council Meeting secret.
