 ====Saint Hydra====
 Saint Hydra is the oldest of The Vizier's Names, and may in fact be even older than he is. He has been a Name of The Great Serpent, a member of the Assemblage, a spy, a conman, a guide, and a scholar. He has worn a thousand thousand masks, as hard to pin down as the twists and turns of the Six Histories. Saint Hydra is Moth and Knock.

 ==Principles==
-The Vizier is Winter, for he brings silence where ever he goes. Conversation grows hushed, and then slowly silent. None dare speak where they may be overheard. He is also a power of the Secret Histories, for he weaves the threads of History to his benefit, and is counted as one of the Hours who is most knowledgeable of their uncounted threads.

He is also a power of the Secret Histories, for he weaves the threads of History to his benefit, and is counted as one of the Hours who is most knowledgeable of their uncounted threads. And finally he is counted among the Hours of Moth: the Vizier shed his identity when he ascended, becoming an extension of his role as Minister. Those that follow him do the same, turning into little more than cogs in a machine.
 He is an Hour of manipulation, scheming, plotting, and lying. He loves order and organisation, constantly micromanaging his Long and Names. He loves knowledge, both for its own sake and for the power it brings. Because of this, it is a spy and voyeur, always seeking to discover secrets that would help spread its influence.

 The Chancellor is a relic of one of those strange knots in History that form when the Hours take a personal interest. They were once an unparalleled statesman, keeping the peace across an entire continent. When they ascended, the alliances they had so carefully built and maintained collapsed, and the continent descended into war once again. Now, after centuries of service, they act as the Vizier's minister in the First City, once again weaving their webs of alliances. The Chancellor is Winter and Moth both.

 ===Long===
 The Vizier's Long are known as Agents, and there are relatively few of them compared to the other Hours. They are spread thin across the Histories, and are often found in temporary alliance with the Long of other Hours. They form the core of the Vizier's power in the Histories, seeking to twist it to their own designs. They are difficult to remember, seeming to blend into the background, only noticeable when they chime in with advice murmured into one's ear.

 ====The Revolutionary====
-''"Oh my master! Shall we build a new order from the ashes of the old? Shall we melt down their chains, and forge new ones for ourselves?"''
+<div style="text-align: center; margin-bottom: 20px;">{{ElementDescription
 Once a spy who betrayed her homeland and rose to lead the organisation she secretly fought against. She aided the revolution from within, and built a new order to replace that which she tore down. She will come only when change is stifled by the chill of Winter, and her struggles must be met with that of Edge. She is Winter, for they bring the end; and Forge, for an end is merely a new beginning. The Revolutionary appears as a woman in singed business clothing appropriate to the time and place they have been summoned to.

 The Vizier is not commonly worshiped as an Hour. It is often believed that he is merely a Name - perhaps of the Peacock or the Aged Bones or the Anaconda. More commonly he is worshiped by individuals seeking to better their country, organisation, or ideology.
