*[[Chancellor]] of the [[Estate Imperium]]
*The [[Speaker for the Chartist Captains]]
==Notes==
<sup>a</sup>: The Inquisitorial Representative is an [[Inquisitor]] sent to speak on behalf of the [[Inquisition]].
Also the title itself has been given as an honour to incredible members of the Imperium; this does not entitle the Lord to sit on the council permanently as the title is entirely honorific.
==History==
The High Lords of Terra succeeded the [[Council of Terra]] as the main executive body of the Imperium as the beginning of the reformations initiated by [[Primarch]] [[Roboute Guilliman]], who joined the Council as [[Lord Commander#Roboute Guilliman|Lord Commander of the Imperium]], commanding the entirety of the Imperial armed forces. In early M32, the rise of the Imperial Creed and the Cult of the Saviour Emperor in the Imperium meant that the Ecclesiarch of the Adeptus Ministorum was granted a seat, which soon became permanent.
