Bone Council

The Hole King trusted few besides his Queen, and his close personal friend Drakvonir, however in order to govern his empire during his mortal years, he relied on council of eight resurrected liches. The councillors were thralls bound to king Vexivar himself, forcibly kept in a state of undeath in order to perpetually stand ready to offer their wisdom. The Bone council was also tasked with operating the Royal Death Cult, and acted as its leadership.

The Bone Council would be completely eliminated during The Great Deception by Queen Shemak herself, in an attempt to decapitate The King’s leadership. The Queen used her power to free the councillors from the will of The King, allowing them to cast off their physical forms and escape from their bondage.
