The City Council is a governing organization of officials which were given the task of overseeing The City for the The Baron.

During the time of The Catastrophe, The City Council was in charge of overseeing the construction of the great wall, which kept the Undead confined to a large section of the Old Quarter, which was being constructed by a group of workers managed by Iendros.

A Council Representative, Lord Whitsimmon, wrote a letter to Iendros to congratulate him and his men on behalf of the Council, while sending their sympathies for the deaths of two of his workers.[1]


In the T2 mission "Masks", there is mention of a Regency Council, which may refer to the same organization.[2]

Trivia[]

Historically, a regency council rules in the manner of a stewardship when the state is unable to be ruled by its monarch due to them being underage, absent or otherwise incapacitated. It may be then that the City Council ruled when the Baron was still present in the city, and now that he is away fighting, a regency council has been instead set up to manage affairs during his absence.
