Overview

The Custodian of the Starlight Drift is an Imperial title established by the Imperial Senate during Autumn 378YE.

Responsibilities

The Custodian has no particular responsibilities; they simply receive a bounty of crystal mana from the Starlight Drift. If the Drift were to be threatened in any way, it would be the responsibility of the Custodian to deal with those threats.

Powers

The Custodian of the Starlight Drift is an Imperial title that grants custodianship of a sinecure.

Bounty of Mana

The Custodian receives an income of 9 crystal mana each season.

Appointment

The Custodian of the Starlight Drift is selected by unanimous decision of the Urizen senators. If a unanimous decision cannot be reached, the title may be appointed by the Imperial Senate instead.

The title can be held by any Urizen citizen. The Custodian has tenure, and serves until they die or step down.

The Custodian of the Starlight Drift can be revoked by the General Assembly, the Urizen National Assembly, and by the Assembly of the Nine.

The Starlight Drift of Shimmering Snow

The Starlight Drift of Shimmering Snow is the name given to a certain cliff face near Endsmeet in Zenith. Impurities in the rock, similar to the material used to make lightstones, capture sunlight and slowly release it after sunset. It is considered a site of outstanding natural beauty. In 378YE, the decision was made to take advantage of the naturally high flows of mana around the Starlight Drift. Work began almost immediately to construct several mithril collectors that could be used to harness and focus the mana flows to produce crystal mana - without damaging this beautiful natural wonder.
