# Council Epoch The Illuvinati Main Council, composed of five members, serves as the governing body responsible for debating and voting on Illuvium Configuration Change Proposals (ICCPs) and Illuvium Improvement Proposals (IIPs) within a public forum on Discord. Council members hold their positions for an entire Council Epoch, which can be modified through an ICCP. Currently, Council Epochs are set to last six months. If a council member withdraws during an Epoch, the supermajority formula changes accordingly; a supermajority is still required for normal proposals. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
