Any issues an individual has within the church may be discussed with all full members and brought to the attention of the Elders to find suitable solutions. Writing to all members of the Church should be done sparingly. Before writing to all members, ask yourself if it is something everyone needs and/or would want to know. The purpose of the rank Knight of the Faith is to still serve the church as if they were a Knight of the Temple without all the general messages and all of us must respect that.

Any issue brought to the elder council that does not concern the church does not have to be mediated by the Elders. If a Knight of the Faith feels they are limited by their rank, then they may at any time request the Elder Council to promote them to the full member rank of Knight of the Temple. Any Knight of the Temple that wants their opinion heard must make the effort to speak to all full members or elders and shouldn't expect other members to actively seek them out.

The Regent acts as the figurehead of the Church, second only to the Holy Prophet himself. His primary duties are to oversee discussion and debate within the Elders Council, to aid the Lights in the fulfilment of their duties, and to conduct official Church diplomacy both in person and via the Office of the Auspicious.
+
'''Article 3 a. Veto by Arbiter of the Stars:''' The Arbiter of the Stars has the authority to veto any motion passed by the Council of Three if it is deemed to be a detriment to the church.

===Charter Revision Project (Compiled for your convenience; also OOC if you character is not an Elder)===
+
'''Article 4b. Light:''' The Light must be a priest and is elected by the priests of the faith. Elections for Light are held every 2 years (OOC: 6 real life months) beginning on the first day of spring. Should the Light office become vacant, a special mid-term election will be held to fill the vacancy.  The vote will be held for 3 days.  Each priest gets 1 vote and the priest with the most votes is elected Light. The Arbiter will tally the votes and make the necessary demotions and promotions for the Council of Three.
  
'''Edict 1''':  The Astroist Creed is sacrosanct.
+
'''Article 4c. Consul:''' The Consul is a full lay member in good standing in the Church. Elections for Consul are held every 2 years (OOC: 6 real life months) beginning on the first day of spring. Should the Consul office become vacant, a special mid-term election will be held to fill the vacancy. The vote will be held for 3 days.  Each full member gets 1 vote and the candidate with the most votes is elected Consul. The Arbiter will tally the votes and make the necessary demotions and promotions for the Council of Three.
  
'''Edict 2''':  Any member of the Elder Council may propose an amendment to this Charter and call for a vote on it; any other member may "second" the motion by also calling for the vote.  Once a vote has been called for a proposed amendment and seconded, the remaining members of the Elder Council (consisting of the Prophet, Regent, Lights, Luminaries and Consuls; the Special Regent Representative is not a voting member) will each cast one vote either for or against the proposal (the calling and seconding Elders are considered to vote in favor of the proposal).  A proposal may only pass and be added to the Charter if it receives at least 7 votes in favor (2/3 of the seats on the Elder Council excluding that of the Prophet, rounded up) and fewer than 4 against (1/3 of the seats on the Elder Council including that of the Prophet, rounded up) within a five-day period beginning from the seconding of the proposal.  A vote does not supersede discussion on an amendment, and an amendment may be proposed again later (but may not be changed during the course of a vote).
 
  
(Edict 2, in depth:  The reason for the number 7 is to prepare this Church for the future, as we will not always have the Prophet with us and we may not always have a Prophet; there are also times when the Prophet secludes himself to meditate and seek a new Prophecy.  As such, our Charter must prepare us for a time when the Elder Council numbers 10 instead of 11.  The Edict also states how it will change if at some point in the future the number of seats on the Elder Council is changed by amendment to the Charter)

Charter notes.

Preamble

We believe that the Maddening Star influences our raw emotions and impulses.

We believe that the Auspicious Star influences our reason and capacity for logical thought.

We believe that the Austere Star influences our soul and capacity for serenity.

We believe that above all else, men should seek to reach a state of Harmony with the influence of all three Stars, so that we may act with Wisdom according to our knowledge.

We believe that to succeed at this is to attain Enlightenment, as the First Prophet Mathurin did.

We hold the spiritual writings of the First Prophet Mathurin to come from the greatest understanding of the Stars we have yet achieved. All should study them so we can better understand and study the Stars themselves.

We believe that everyone should know and believe this creed to be true. We do not shun those who seek honest enlightenment, and we seek always to spread our knowledge of the Truth to the unenlightened.

All this we believe.
