The Elected Crown of Alturis.
The elected crown of Alturis isn't one person. Rather, it is a collection of representatives from the cities of King's Bay Aaramor, Eastbourne, Blackstone and A'mlon. The most powerful cities in Alturis.
The representatives are voted into power by the nobility of their areas and meet in King's Bay to discuss the 'going-ons' of Alturis. They pass major acts and decisions for the rest of the country and are also in control of establishing states of emergency, organising the Inquisitors and declaring war.
They are also responsible for the organisation of town guards, automatons and the general military of Alturis, often called 'The Crownsguard'.
The Elected Crown decisions then go through the 'speaker'. An individual who lives inside the ruins of the Dread King's tower and has the sole ability to reject laws and policies if they feel it will not benefit Alturis.
Structure
The organisation meets 6 times a year and are constantly able to contact one another utilising the sending spell.
They are primarily built of the city representatives, their stewards and their mage advisors.
The final member of the organisation is The Speaker, an individual that no one knows the identity of outside of that room (former representatives are subject to modify memory spells). Though, it is rumoured the remaining heroes of 'The True Victory' also know this individual.
Culture
The organisation are solely responsible for the politics of 'Main Alturis' and so take their jobs deeply seriously. So far, there has been no unsettling movements or corruption due to the need to ensure the security of their country (the memory of the Dread King is still fresh for the races with longer lifespans). However, due to this, they can seem callous to the softer needs of the people of Alturis and react with war and violence to those going against their decisions.

History
The group was established mere months after the destruction of the Dread King under the advice of 'The Speaker' at first the world was protected by this singular presence and the cities and towns were brought into existence which allowed the organisation to grow from a single monarch like being to the council that took the colloquial name of 'Crown'.
