Organization:Council of the Descendants

The Governing Council of Gaia, commonly known as the Council of the Descendants is the governing body of Gaia's population, a group of people who seem to be linked by some sort of hive mind. The Descendants mostly live off-world, leaving Gaia to their ancestors "until such a time that they are ready to traverse the stars", however the Council are Gaia's primary communication line to the Descendants.

Personal Lives
Very little is known about the Council beyond the above, due to the restrictions toward viewing information beyond the current date of resurrections (2018 CE, as of the year 12018 HE). Council members are required by Gaian Law to live on Gaia under the same system they regulate, receiving at least one COIN less each month than the lowest basic income payment they choose to provide to their ancestors. Finally, the Council's members are required to pay the publicly listed price to attend any public event such as the Neolympics and cannot attend private events such as summits or trade conventions.

As a result, if you met one of the Council Members on the streets of Gaia, you probably wouldn't recognize them. They don't dress ostentatiously, they aren't big spenders, and they aren't particularly famous.
