The [[Basilisk of the Bourse]] is an Imperial title [[Create_title_Basilisk_of_the_Bourse|created]] by the [[Imperial Senate]] in Autumn 383YE with responsibility to help [[Imperial Bourse|Bourse]] seat holders act with virtue.
 
The [[Current_Imperial_titles#Imperial_Bourse|Imperial Titles of the Bourse]] afford their incumbents access to rare and valuable resources - [[White granite]], [[Mithril]], [[Weirwood]] and [[Ilium]]. Whether by [[Auction_of_the_Seats|success at auction]] or [[Tally_of_the_Votes|by gathering sufficient votes]], these citizens have access to materials necessary for [[Commission|Senate commissions]], upgrading [[Resource#Personal_Resource|personal resources]], and a variety of other projects. The wains or rings of ilium granted to these title holders are legally their property to dispense with as they wish. Although [[Imperial Constitution|constitutionally]] the holders of such titles cannot be subject to [[Revocation]], they are not immune to the scrutiny of the Synod, including the power of [[Inquisition]].
 
The title of ''Basilisk'' is an unusual one - the heraldic beast has a [[Highguard_culture_and_customs#Icons_and_Artistry|strong association with Highguard]] and the Virtue of [[Vigilance]].
 
==Responsibilities==
The Basilisk of the Bourse is expected to advise holders of titles in the Imperial Bourse about the [[The Way|Way of Virtue]] and to offer them spiritual advice in their direct involvement in the economy of the Empire. They are also expected to oversee the use of Bourse resources and report to the Synod any concerns that Members of the Bourse are engaging in any activity that might [[Religious_crime|constitute a religious crime]] so that, if necessary, an appropriate [[Sanction]] can be adminstered.
 
==Powers==
 
===Inquisit Member of the Bourse===
Once per summit, the Basilisk may call an [[inquisition]] against any member of the Bourse (that is, any incumbent of a title that is appointed by [[Auction_of_the_Seats|Auction of the Seats]] or [[Tally_of_the_Votes|Tally of the Votes]] and receives any of mithril, white granite, weirwood or ilium) without the need for a vote in the Synod. This is in addition to any existing judgements they have raised normally. This use of the power may be escalated to a [[Condemnation]] just like any other [[inquisition]]. To use this power, the Basilisk must still place a judgement before the Synod, but it is considered to pass automatically at the point it is presented.
 
==Appointment==
The Basilisk is appointed during the Winter Solstice. The are chosen with a [[judgement]] of [[appointment]] by the [[Assembly#Assembly_of_the_Nine|Assembly of the Nine]].
 
The title can be held by any Imperial citizen. They can be [[revocation|revoked]] by the [[Assembly#General_Assembly|General Assembly]] and the Assembly of the Nine.
