Albion High Council

The Albion High Council was the governing body of the city of Albion, consisting of six members, five as main Councillors and one High Councillor. The group was infamously known for their decisions to have the High Sheriff dismantled in the name of the "greater good" after he was apprehended by Albion's security forces. Some members of the High Council later showed discomfort when Knuckles the Echidna came to visit Albion along with Rob O' the Hedge and three others from Knothole, as Albion had long held an isolationish policy and did not enjoy outsiders coming onto their land. After Knuckles evolved into Chaos Knuckles, the Albion High Council met with the bounter hunters Nic and Nack the Weasel and hired them to capture Knuckles so they could drain his new powers from him, neutralizing the threat he posed. After Dr. Finitevus's Chaos Siphon Suit failed to drain Chaos Knuckles' powers and mutated Dr. Finitevus into having a warped sense of reality, the Albion High Council opted to have him euthanized when he began speaking of bringing about the destruction of Mobius. Finitevus escaped capture however and lead the Eggman Empire to Albion where the city was summarily destroyed; its citizens captured. (StH: #89, #90, #91, #94, #183)
