Advisers to the King - Duthgar

Since the founding of Duthgar the king appointed for himself advisers they only had the power to affect things that any powerful noble would ave but in the case of a king being unable to continue to rule or becoming a king before they are able to the advisers will rule in his stead until a capable king rules. There was no set number of advisers, some kings only had one or two while others filled their courts with up to forty. the advisers were also anything from close friends to wise and experienced men who have served the kingdom for years.

After the Civil war in Duthgar that erupted due to King Koso coronation there were 8 advisers who were given the ability to appoint their own successor encase they die but these were always very political choices when an adviser died with out a successor their seat was left empty.Thus there are now only 3 advisers who dispense the rule of the King. In the last 76 years there have been a total of 27 different advisers and none of them stepped down from their position, they have all died during their tenure most officially due to natural causes. The current advisers are Vedris Eowdra, Kaei Eowdra and Pira Olomaric, Vedris and Kaei are two of the sons of Wilgord Eowdra who was a previous adviser.

If there is a consensus of all of the advisers then their authority is the same as the king but if they only have majority consensus then the other nobles have the power to veto the command / ruling.
