Council Exterra

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

The Council Exterra was formed as the Indomitus Crusade began and its members served as the representatives for the High Lords of Terra, in Lord Commander Roboute Guilliman's Fleet Primus[1b]. They were present during any high-ranking meeting Guilliman oversaw and ensured that their respective High Lord and organisation's interests were spoken for.[1c]

History

The Council's members defended Guilliman when his Imperial enemies criticised him for defending Ultramar during the Plague Wars. They claimed Guilliman was showing favouritism for his Homeland while other places needed his aid. The Council Exterra repeatedly refuted this, but its members did not have the authority of the High Lords, and the Imperial Palace's politicians claimed its members were merely Guilliman's lapdogs. The Council's mere existence was used as proof by critics that the Lord Commander desired to become the Imperium's next Emperor.[2]
