[attr="class","ishytemplate"] [attr="class","ishy-title"]Scarlet Council of Magi [attr="class","ishy-content"] Location: Staten Island, New York Authority: Magi, & Shifter Familiars, Dragons Branch: United States Said to be the Magi government, they formed this group shortly after their own encounter with the first Vampires centuries ago. The Scarlet Council is run by a High Priest/Priestess and a group of Chancellors known as the Council 'Senate'. Known to be very secretive, they watch over everything that happens in the Americas and are an extension of the original Council in Western Europe. Records of magical events, scriptures, deadly artifacts as well as recipes and spells are kept within the Council's deep sanctuary walls. The only way to get in is by skill, recommendation, and by serving the other Magi covens. ArchMagi's in the States were not fully recognized until 100 years ago but were created in the hopes of said individuals would partake in overseeing the growing population of Magi in the area and to also one day successfully ensure their species survival. Their current location is secret and only known by immediate members but it is located within the United States and for members it can be found in Staten Island. This coven has a leader and several official titles but any other Magi are not recognized as a full member and must follow the coven as a form of government.

[attr="class","ishytemplate"] [attr="class","ishy-title"]Positions [attr="class","ishy-content"]ArchMagi: The ArchMagi is the Head of the State, similar to a Governor's status. Their responsibilities are vast but highly important and include governing the states smaller covens, instilling order within their state, and acting as a representative of that state during council meetings and affairs.
Chancellor: A title used in the Magi Council, being a Chancellor means you are part of the council's 'Senate'. Just under the High Priest/Priestess, there are always atleast four Chancellors and their duties include advising the High Priest/Priestess in important decisions, recruiting ArchMagi's, and in times when the High Priest/Priestess is absent govern the council. Chancellor's are elected among the council when a death occurs.
Familiar (un-official title): A familiar is a shifter-magi hybrid who has been assigned to a Magi to protect and in some cases teach them by an unofficial Magi of a coven. A familiar is a term used by all Magi and doesn't hold an official position but are often used by covens to help their young or inexperienced Magi as they come into their powers. The general age of a familiar assigned to a Ward is 20 and over and if assigned by a coven must prove their loyalty to said coven. Familiars can also be self governed and choose willingly to protect a certain Magi, or even in rare cases group, for their own personal reasons. In most cases, families of Familiars will serve a family of Magi through generations.
Guardian: Guardians only have three jobs. Protect the council, protect the law, and protect the people. Usually Guardians are talented fighters in both magic and weapons and must swear their loyalty to the Council. Not only are they held responsible for guarding the councils most important officials, Guardians also act as the councils commanding officers. Any Magi in trouble or breaking a rule they have the power to apprehend them and even in some cases punish them. Due to the size of the country there are no limits to how many Guardians there can be and they are all spread out evenly.
Head Magi (not official title): Head Magi are those who are below the ArchMagi and usually the head of a very large and influential coven, but are not directly tied to the Council. Head Magi is only an official title to the Head Magi of the Strega coven but other large covens also use the title.
High Priest/Priestess: The High Priest/Priestess is the leader of the coven and is currently only known to be used by the Scarlet Council. Though they hold the most power the High Priest/Priestess must rely on their fellow Chancellors for important matters and decision making. Like a Democracy the High Priest/Priestess cannot give out a order without at least 3 out of 4 Chancellor's approval.
Inquisitor: Being a Inquisitor means you are talented at interrogations and persuasion. Tied as spies any Magi who becomes an Inquisitor for the Council means their talents are highly sought out for. Unlike other spies Inquisitors are trusted as full members and are expected to remain loyal, however for fear of a double agent most important information is held from them.
Keeper: A Keeper, or the Councils official term for a Familiar, is a shifter-magi hybrid tasked as a protector of a certain Magi individual by the Council. This job is provided to the hybrid by the Council if the hybrid wishes to join their ranks within the group. The Magi they are tasked to protect and in some cases teach are called Wards, and can be any age. The Keeper must be the age of 20 or over and must prove their loyalty to the Council before given a Ward. The Ward-Keeper arrangement is dependent on the Magi and hybrid themselves as every circumstance is different. An example being a hybrid is tasked to protect a young Magi with great potential or given the job of teaching a Magi who has yet to learn or control their abilities; both being the case of the hybrid being the best match for the Magi. The title Keeper is assigned specifically to hybrids working for the Council.
Enforcer: Enforcers hold the same job as the Councils Guardians but are centered around a smaller area, much like a local Deputy. Depending on the size of the area there can be anywhere from three to eight. They answer to the head of the coven, and are carefully selected by the Council.
Watcher: If you are a Watcher you are the informant or scout. Mostly titled as spies, they keep to the shadows and are extremely talented in gathering information for their coven. They are the eyes and ears of the coven. Unlike others Watchers aren't full members and are usually kept in the dark for fear of a double agent penetrating their organization.
There are also members that do not have a official name or title, but have declared their loyalty to the Scarlet Council and are given various jobs according to the situation and Magi's skills.
