Censor

Censors were members of the Baldur Senate under the republic charged with determining how many representatives each guildhome was allowed to send. There were two at a time, and their terms lasted for five years each. 
==Pre-Revolutionary Baldur==
In 1436, Edmund Vargus commanded the censors to perform their duties more frequently. This was part of the upheaval which led to the Silent Revolution, where many of his enemies were elected. 
==Post-Revolutionary Baldur==
After the Revolution of 1441 was put down by Vargus's retaking of the city in 1443, the lack of censors proved a political issue. Without censors, there could be no Senate meetings, because no one knew how many Senators each populace should have. Without the Senate, however, there could be no censors, since the censors are chosen by and from among the Senate. According to rumors gathered by Ethan of Malvont and Leilah Maloch, Vargus is likely to give up and appoint censors himself, who are likely to overrepresent his favored races.
