Judge (Narthus)

The 12 Judges are the rulers of Narthus.

Description
They each wield a great deal of equal power. When they must decide as one, one of them becomes a voteless moderator who presides over the discussion and ensures that things stay on track. He is referred to as the Grand Judge. Each judge has a 12th of land that they rule and a 12th of the capital city. They are strictly forbidden from working against their neighbors, and are observed by non-neighbors. They are not always the happy family, but they try not to involve civilians in their scuffles.
