External Circle

The External Circle is made up of the 160 Vigesimi who serve their respective Octarchs. Their job is to oversee the law and civil order.

At the beginning of every year there is a meeting of both the Inner Circle and External Circle that lasts for several months. In this event they evaluate all expenses and revenue of the previous year, all complaining, problems, etc. The Vigesimi that serve in the External Circle normally come from the Craft Guilds of each level, and their position is hereditary. Nevertheless is not too rare to find some high citizens that are elected thanks to people acclamation, taking place of Vigesimi that are dead, that are judged inept or that are found to be guilty of thievery.

The External Circle members for each level also meet at the beginning of every season, generally (but not always) directed by the Octarch. During these short meetings the members of the External Circle can elect a new Octarch if the previous is dead or too old.
