The Burnley Confederation

The Burnley Confederation is a Free Council-dominated group recognised as a Consilium which is legally made up out of smaller Consilia, forged into a unity by the Burnley Agreement in 1936. Each subgrouping is represented by an official called a Hierarch, while the Chairman oversees the HIerarch's Council. Hierarchs here are functionally identical to Councillors elsewhere, and are referred to by that title when outside the Confederation as a matter of protocol.

Member Consilia are usually referred to by the names of their signatory Cabals, some of which no longer exist. A number of these Consilia have in fact amalgamated into single Cabals.

The current Chairman is Oathtaker. Among the current Hierarchs are Nemhain and Wasp, with Catch and Delbaeth among its Seven Sentinels.
