Medieval Simulation post



I am cardinal, and I am known as the priest/prince of the cathedral. I work with bishops in Catholic Church, and I am helping in the College of Cardinals. My duties includes attending to the meetings of the College, and keeping myself available if the pope request our counsel. I am also in charge of leading the diocese or archdiocese, which are administrative territorial unit, I need to run the department of the Roman Curia too. My other main function is to elect the pope. By the middle of the 13th century, I wore broad brimmed hat with a shallow crown that was ringed with silken cords and a large circular cloak with a fur-lined hood, and the color of it is mostly scarlet. I get quite a lot privileges just like bishops, for example: I get to wear red, and I also get to vote at ecumenical councils.
