The Forerunner Council was the main government and lawmaking body of the Forerunner ecumene. It was located at the capital. The Council was supported by a network of ancillas known as the Council metarcy. The dedicated security force of the Council was known as Council Security.[1]

Councilors typically served for a thousand years and took vows of abstinence and austerity. This was apparent in the general aesthetic associated with the Council; their ships and residential facilities lacked luxury or adornment, yet reflected the Council's status and power.[2][3]
