Details: Powerful and wise, The Elders are a council of senior whitelighters who serve as the governing body for the forces of good. They are the leaders of the whitelighter community and they reside within the upper realm known as The Heavens.
The Elders seek to maintain the greater good -- the underlying moral presence shared by all humanity -- in order to keep the world in perfect balance with the natural and supernatural elements that affect it.
The Elders assign whitelighters to their respective charges, either good witches or future whitelighters, so they may guide and protect them from the influence of evil. The Elders impart knowledge, advice and caution to witches through their whitelighters.
It is very rare for an Elder to appear on Earth, except when they seek to retire in which case they will come to Earth to pass on their powers to a new Elder before ceasing to be. Elders are not necessarily old and can be of any age and though most Elders were once whitelighters, it is also possible for ordinary mortals or supernaturals like witches or gypsies etc. to become Elders.
