The Argent Mirror was the proper title of the monarch of House Illistim. The egalitarian nature of Illistim culture was such that all Elves were regarded as noble in some fashion, and so the monarch was intended to mirror the best in her people as a whole. Though there was a formal deference to The Argent, it was reflective of the respect for Illistim itself. The Argent Mirror was to be regarded as second only to pure knowledge.

The Peacock Throne was founded in -49,107 Modern Era by Linsandrych Illistim, who was the first Argent Mirror and the First Master of Lore. Her bloodline was one of dynastic rule, comprising 18 monarchs over the next 33,922 years. The Post-Lanenreat Argents comprised over 80 Elves for the following twenty millennia, up until the present day, who were instead chosen by the Council of Thrones. The Council consists of former Argents, with much shorter reigns than those of antiquity.

The Argent Mirror is not really an imperial station, and thus relatively accessible, without the power plays and viciousness of other monarchies.
