Below the President is a group of four advisors called The Elders.

The Elders are supported by The Counsels, small boards of individuals making the day-to-day choices about HBC and Beckettville in general.

The Elders

A group of four specially chosen advisors working closely alongside the president. This is a lifetime position, at the President's discretion.

Each Elder handles a different aspect of administration covering public policy, community management, financial analysis, and religious supervision.

The Elders are rarely seen outside of The Promenade, but never without their headpieces obscuring their face. The identities of the four Elders are considered top secret and are only known to the President.

The Counsels

Each Elder has a small group of specialists dealing with their respective sector. These Counsels range from five to twelve members of specially trained psychologists, subject to individual review every ten years for replacement.

These counsellors each lead teams to deploy procedures, programs, and practices to the necessary parties.
