The Ankh-Morpork Player Council is located on the northern side of the Ankh River in Ankh-Morpork. Its entrance is on Speedwell St.

Citizenship

The council allows players who are at least 4 days old to obtain citizenship in Ankh-Morpork, allowing the player to rent their own houses and shops in the city and to vote in council elections.

  • Citizenship applications need to be sponsored from someone who is already a citizen and 10 days of age.
  • Applications should be left for ten days before approval, in order that citizens have the chance to object to that person becoming an Ankh-Morpork citizen. All objections shall be considered and the applicant given a chance to refute them.

Cases

Cases can be filed in the court room by anybody who believes one of the council's rules to have been broken.

  • Magistrates then have the option of enforcing certain punishments on rule breakers such as fines, blacklisting, banishment from the city or negative titles.

Magistrates

There are seven elected magistrate positions in Ankh-Morpork.

Magistrates manage the business of the council, including proposing and voting on rule changes, ruling on cases filed in the court room, setting the tax rate and distributing funds from the council's coffers.

The current elected magistrates are:

  • haize
  • falinore
  • juppie
  • jaceth
  • jeanie
  • nasrin (Ankh-Morpork's Ambassador to Djelibeybi)
  • xola


Ambassador Exchange Program

A single Magistrate is selected as Morporkian Ambassador to Djelibeybi in part of a shared scheme with the Djelian Council. Along with their Djelian counterpart, they have the unique status of jointly holding both Morporkian *and* Djelian citizenship simultaneously. All in the name of peace and diplomacy.

The current Ambassadors are:

  • (AM) Magistrate Nasrin (Ankh-Morpork's Ambassador to Djelibeybi)
  • (DJB) Magistrate Rauna (Djelibeybi's Ambassador to Ankh-Morpork)

Election Results

Magistrates serve for a term of 20 roundworld weeks. Each election starts with a 14-day nomination phase followed by a 14-day voting phase.
