The Synod is the ruling council of the Keepers of Terris.[1] They were present both before and during the Final Empire, as well as after the Final Ascension.

The Final Empire

The Synod charged themselves with keeping knowledge of the world before the Lord Ruler's Ascension. However, they did not openly rebel against the Final Empire, instead staying as a secret organization based in Tathingdwen, in the Terris dominance. The Synod opposed Sazed's decision to assist in Kelsier's rebellion.

After the Lord Ruler's death, the Synod spread the knowledge collected from before the Ascension. Tindwyl, a Keeper of the Synod, traveled to Luthadel to assist Elend Venture in securing his kingdom's borders.[2]

In the later events of The Well of Ascension, Steel Inquisitors attacked Tathingdwen under the influence of Ruin, killing all of the Synod in the city.[3] This left Sazed as the only known living Keeper.

After the Catacendre

During the events of the Mistborn Adventures, which is set several hundred years after the Catacendre, the Synod ruled from within the Village, a Terris enclave in the city of Elendel.[4]
