The Consul is at present responsible for the day to day administration of the Curia, including but not limited, maintaining and updating the text of [[Constitution| The Constitution]] as amendments and additions are made along with any other tasks outlined in this document. Only [[Citizen]]s may hold this Office. Consuls are served by two [[Censor]]s, who act as assistants. The trio also acts as a de facto Moderation for the Curia.

History

The first Curator/Consul to take office was Kazak borispavlovgrozny, a member of the Original Triumvirate. The position remained extremely powerful for some time, with the then-named Consul gaining an elected seat in 2005 held by Justinian. The Consul generally appointed a Pro-Consul to oversee most of the standard tasks of the Consul. Eventually the Consul became defunct as an elected administrative position was moved to the much less influential Speaker of the House role. The Curator position was a strict manager of Curia affairs. The responsibilities and powers of the Curator (eventually renamed Consul) changed little ever since.

The longest serving Curator (before the name change) was General Brewster, who served 15 months spanning 4 terms and received the Curial Service award for his trouble. Some of his close successors would be long term as well, with Hader and King Athelstan serving three term periods. Hader's election came just after the proposition and passage of major reforms he penned and successfully passed.

In April 2024, the position of Consul was overhauled along with the rest of the Curia to be a simple appointed position to oversee simplified Curial affairs.
