Fictional Role
The Emissary is tasked with bolstering the Brotherhood’s membership, and its relations outside of its own realm of influence. Much of their time is spent traveling outside Brotherhood space exploring new regions that might be tapped for new members, resources, or influential alliances. Their duties are not only outward facing however, as they are one of the prime resources new members might turn to as they navigate the complex workings of the Brotherhood. The Emissary often works with each of the other Councilors and the Clans’ Leaderships to foster an accessible environment for the new members to thrive in.
Historical Role
Originally, the Emissary (EMS) was created in order to increase communication between the Assembly of Consuls and the The Council. This person was chosen by the Consuls from among the Consuls to represent the Assembly of Consuls to the the Council. The Emissary served as speaker to the the Council, but was in no way considered the head of the Assembly of Consuls. The Emissary simply served to pass along ideas and suggestions to the Dark Council and Assembly of Consuls. There were no rank restrictions on the Emissary. The only necessity is that the Emissary was a fellow or former Consul.
The Emissary was created along with the Assembly of Consuls, which was instituted by Grand Master Chi-Long. This position was dissolved from 2004 until 2023 when it was revived with an entirely new focus. Dark Side Adept Astronicus Aurelius Sadow was the last serving Emissary in its original form.
