Magic Council

The Magic Council is the ruling body of Fiore. The Council oversees guilds and keeps them in check. For this reason, they do not hold the Fairy Tail Guild, mainly Natsu Dragneel, in high regard due to their idiocy and property damaging tactics. Due to the events of the Tower of Heaven arc, where two members were revealed to as traitors, several Council members have left. They have since been replaced as of the Oración Seis arc. The Council has nine members at a time, along with a chairman that makes the final decisions.

Sadly, since their humiliating defeat to Jellal and Ultear, the Magic Council disbanded until a personal requested by the King of Fiore to be reformed. The new Magic Council has become extremely strict and even borderline cruel in order to remove all of the Dark Guilds. Their new form of thinking could be seen as almost like a dictatorship.
