Inaugural holder | Hubb |
Formation | 22 April 2009 |
The Proconsul serves as the regent of the Legion. As regent, the Proconsul may only exercise the powers of the Imperator when the Imperator is absent. The Proconsul does not have an official vote in government matters, such as treaty ratification, but does participate in the Tribunal process. Like the Consulate, the Proconsul serves at the leisure of the Imperator and can be removed at any time.
Powers of the Office
The Proconsul is far more limited in powers when compared to the Imperator, but may exercise the Imperator's power whenever the Imperator is absent. The following powers are delegated to the Proconsul:
- Chief adviser and assistant to the Imperator
- Oversight of the Consulate
- Investigates misconduct within the Office of the Inspector General and approves Votes of No Confidence against it
- Sits as a member of the Tribunal
- Acts as presiding authority during Tribunal appeals process
- Hears appeals arising from an expulsion made by the Imperator
Oversight
The affairs of the Proconsul are monitored by the Office of the Inspector General. The Proconsul is also responsible for investigating misconduct within the Office of the Inspector General and serves as gatekeeper for Votes of No Confidence filed against the office.
The Proconsul sits as a member of the Legion Tribunal and is the presiding authority for Tribunal appeals. The Proconsul may also consider appeals that result from an Imperator's expulsion of a member for serious crimes.
