President

The President of the Council acts as one of the Community of Goetia's head of government, along with the President of the older Conference of Cycle Families and can be empowered by the Council with any range of duties or responsibilities. Failure to serve as President satisfactorily will result in failure to be elected, shame brought to the president's cycle family, and even possible exile from the Community.

Actions of the Coordinating Council

Each council keeps minutes and these minutes are available to all members of the community. Records have been kept from every annual meeting, including the informal Family Conferences that founded the Community itself and established the Goëtian taboos necessary to keep the Community safe and hidden. The major decisions of each annual Conference are listed below.

Year Major Decision President Text
1675 Establishment Dean Hammer, Crophaulers The leaders of the new families--The Crophaulers, Gladius, and The Troglonauts--in the north are meeting together in this place between their turf, to recognize each other as the families owning the turf they control and agreeing to mutually develop this Meeting Place.
1675 Patrol Runs Dean Hammer, Crophaulers Nomadic families will patrol the runs between turfs and Meeting Place. A person must first belong to a turfed family before they can join a nomadic family. They may only join a nomadic family that patrols the run to their main family.
1676 Old Ways Dean Hammer, Crophaulers The Old Ways are officially banned in the Families, Turf, and Runs of the NCC. Any person found to be practicing or tolerating a practitioner of the Old Ways shall be cast out on a dingy into the open sea into the southernly current.
1677 Modernization Cooper Bull, Gladius The NCC shall endeavor to present itself as a modern, state-like entity to the world. It shall seek foreign investments, trade deals, resource exchanges, and closer integration with potential allies.
