The Theban Tribunal is organized in a different way from other Tribunals, which brings up questions on how it interacts with other Tribunals.
In the Magvillus outer council, there is a seat for the Presiding Quaesitor from every regional Tribunal. Now the Theban Tribunal does not have a Presiding Quaesitor (TSE p.25), so the question is who gets to fill that seat. Here are my options:
- The Archon - but the Archon is already the equivalent of a Praeco, and uniting both roles in one person would be unusual.
- The Polemarch - this seems to be the Chief Hoplite; might be too busy, but the advantage would be that the role is always clearly defined.
- An Arche from the Judicial Board, which has precedence over the other Boards.
- An Arche from one of the three Boards, which fulfill duties usually carried out by Quaesitors.
- Any one of the 16 Archai could be elected to represent the Tribunal at the outer council.
