The Captain's Council

The Sea Lord (currently Marilise Maeorgan) rules Freeport, but the Captains' Council oversees the daily business of running the city. Major decisions are put to a vote, with each of the twelve Councilors having one vote, and the Sea Lord two; the Sea Lord also breaks ties. The current members of the Council are:

• Dirwin Arnig: An elderly gnome, and head of the Jewelers' and Gemcutters' Guild.

• Liam Blackhammer: A self-proclaimed champion of the common people.

• Xavier Gordon: Former holder of the Privateer's Seat, now a permanent member.

• Nathan Grimes: A highly successful merchant; a recent addition.

• Sister Gwendolyn: Representative of the Sea God's temple.

• Enoch Holliver: Commissioner of the newly militarized Freeport Watch.

• Jacob Lydon: A drunkard and pirate, but popular for his lavish spending; a recent addition.

• Marcus Roberts: A long-standing member who often acts as ambassador to other nations.

• Hector Torian: The most vocal Drac loyalist still in power.

• Tarmon: High Wizard of the Wizards' Guild; the most recent addition.

• Garth Varellion: An ambitious but now unpopular captain.

• Tench Prescott: Current holder of the Privateer's Seat (a limited-term position always held by an active captain), but an indifferent politician.
