The Government of the Realm of Elvenesse, sometimes known simply as “the Crown” or as “His/Her Majesty’s Government”, is a hereditary constitutional monarchy which employs a broad-form ministerial Council of Lords to administer the united lands of the Elder Folk. It may be considered a restoration of the rightful Sylvaeri Princeship of Old Malinor, but is perhaps better characterized as the successor of Aegrothond and Siramenor which preceded it.

 

The realm can trace its establishment to the year 1685, when forces loyal to Belestram and his House of Sylvaen founded a government-in-exile upon the island of Aegrothond, and raised their banners in opposition to the Gladewynnite usurpation of the Dominion. Over time, despite cycles of great tragedy and tribulation, the nation grew and expanded its breadth with treaties such as the Compact of Lathadlen (1712) among others, cementing its legitimacy until it stood as the sole descendant-state of the fallen Princedom.

 

Efforts to achieve the glories of the elder days were halting, until the return of the Matriarch Awaiti Sirame to the fold. Together with Sea Prince Feanor, she established a lasting partnership between the Almenodrim of Aegrothond and the Wood Elves of Siramenor- a partnership which would slowly lead to a truly reinstated unity among the Elven folk who had once inhabited Caras Eldar. As the Elven People look forward to a new dawn in a new land, they do so not as Aegrothond and Siramenor but as Elvenesse the Great, under a united and representative government. This united Government consists of several constituent parts, affixed with the Crown itself (the High Prince, his family and Guard), and including the bicameral Council, wherein sit the delegated Lords-Minister who oversee vital operations on behalf of the nation.

The High Prince

Feanor Flameborn, of the House of Sylvaen

(wandiferous)

 

 

The High Prince is Lord of the Citadel and bearer of the Crown of Malinor, the standing heir of Sylvaen Everflame. He maintains a ceremonial and legal status as leader of the united Realm of Elvenesse, and oversees the Council. The High Prince traces descent from Malin himself, through the line of his first son; as such, the position is hereditary (though tanistry is sometimes used to determine an heir, see below.)

 

The Royal Family

The Royal Family is the assembled menage of all Elves in the immediate kin of the High Prince. They serve primarily to support the High Prince in various matters and to act as the tanistry pool from whence a successor may be chosen should the need arise. Many of these Elves are extremely active in the Realm, holding prominent advisory positions.

 

The Honour Guard

Also called the Oathblades, the Honour Guard serve as the backbone of Almenodrim culture in Elvenesse, and as the personal guards of the Royal Family. Any aspiring Elf may apply to join this organization, though they must apprentice under an existing Oathblade first and be willing to undertake a binding blood-oath. The Honour Guard has a reputation as being the right hand of House Sylvaeri, sometimes partaking in secretive and/or dangerous projects directly on behalf of the Crown. They tend to serve as military auxiliaries in times of war, subservient to their peers in the Sentinels.

= The Crown Council =

 

The Lords Exarch

The Exarchs are the lawspeakers and judicial authority in Elvenesse, serving in the capacity of judges and interpreters of the law. They primarily ensure that the Law is maintained to reflect the betterment of the Elven People, and that it is not flaunted within the bounds of the Elven Domain. Peacekeeping and conflict resolution are among their main duties, as is presiding over court-cases based on the Codex.

They work via brief granted by the Crown itself and maintain a small team of Ambassadorial Staff in order to ensure an efficient discharge of their duties.

The Lord Marshal

The paramount master of military forces in Elvendom, leader of the Sentinels and overall commander of the White Fleet as well as any other auxiliary units that come under the auspices of military action on behalf of the Crown.

The Citizen’s Warden, also known as the Head Steward, is tasked with ensuring the smooth operation of the housing and upkeep of the population of Elvenesse. The assembled Stewardry consists of individual stewards operating within the guidelines provided to them by the Head Steward.

The Faith

The Green Faith of Elvenesse, and its united priesthood, is represented upon the Inner Council by an individual known as the High Priest of Elvenesse. The Faith is responsible for the spiritual health and education of the united Elven people, for the upkeep of shrines and for the holding of Aspectist Festivals within the bounds of the Elven Lands.

The Father Circle

As the official Druidic Circle of Elvenesse, the Father Circle enjoys a Grove and protected status under the auspices of the Crown. It is led by example in the form of four seasonal Raitheans, one of whom sits upon the Domestic Council as their representative and liaison to the Crown.

= The Omentahu =

 In times of strife or deliberation, the Government may call together the Chieftans and Lords of the great Seeds and Houses of Elvenesse in a People’s Council, colloquially known as the “Omentahu” after the Ame ritual of the same purpose. This allows the People to have their say on an issue, and make an indicative vote on the issue in order that the Crown may more accurately gauge their will. By this mechanism more seats and positions may be added to the Council, changes can be made to the law, and broad issues may be laid to rest. This ritual is called and overseen by the erstwhile Matriarch of the Ame.
