The 19th Pontifical Conclave
After the death of His Holiness Pontifex Rokossovsky, the Conclave gathers at the Basilica to debate and vote in secret on who amongst them should become the next Pontifex. Here are some important figures.
- ===H.E. Vicar General Talbot Roberts===
Talbot Roberts is the current serving Vicar-General and acting-Pontifex of Ecclesia. Appointed Vicar-General by Pontifex Rokossovsky on 03/22/3020, Roberts was the second Vicar-General under Rokossovsky following the dismissal of Vicar-General Don Jordovsky on 03/13/3020. The Vicar-General is undeniably the second most powerful position in the nation and within the Church, and can step in whenever the Pontifex dies or becomes unfit for ruling.
Roberts mission while serving the government has been to oversee Pontifex Rokossovsky's church construction plans across the Doggerlands. Most recently he has taken involvement in the construction of parish halls and schools in Scion and Novenae. Roberts was given the command to take the role of acting-Pontifex 10/12/3020 when Pontifex Rokossovsky entered into a coma, and will continue this position into the Conclave process.
- ===H.E. Secretary of State Vychaslav Reshevsky===
His Eminence Vychaslav Reshevsky, aged 52, is the Ecclesian Secretary of State. Reshevsky was appointed by the previous Pontifex, Vasiliev III. Having been called the third most powerful person in Ecclesia, the Secretary of State is often responsible for maintaining relations with other countries.
Reshevsky is most well known for his part in signing the treaty on behalf of Pontifex Rokossovsky to end the NCR-Ecclesian conflict, as well as leading the Ecclesian delegation in Novenae bringing the country into the Republik.
- ===H.E. Don Jordovsky===
His Eminence Don Jordovsky was the previous Vicar-General under Pontifex Rokossovsky. Dismissed due to health concerns, Jordovsky has remained a powerful and jovial voice within the Church.

- ===H.E. Yuri Lenkov===
His Eminence Yuri Lenkov is the Ecclesian Secretary of Justice. The only black Bishop, Lenkov has been a staunch voice for Church traditionalism and reverence. Advising the Pontifex on legal affairs, he warned Rokossovsky against the implications of Ecclesia entering the Republik.
- ===H.E. The Lancastrian Archbishop===
Not eligible for election but able to cast a vote, is the Archbishop from the Archdiocese of Lancastria. This has been the case since the Lancastrian adoption of the Church several centuries back. The close ties of the two countries is often an important issue as Lancastria has the second-highest number of Pontifical followers after Ecclesia itself.
