The Senatorial Legate, normally referred to as simply 'The Legate', is the face of the Senate in international relations. He (or she) has the power to represent the senate in diplomatic situations and given that a non-Elysian can not tread on the holy soil of Empyrean, constitutionally it is the closest thing for a foreigner to being before the senate. Besides the The Leader of the War Council (whose position is innately different) the Legate is the most powerful individual that non-Elysians will meet - ironically possessing no more power in the Senate than any other Senator. He (or she) is chosen for their rhetorical ability, intellect and faith.

The current Legate is Karael Malarch, a female Patrician.
