The actual institution of the Senatorum itself is overseen by a '''[[Chancellor of the Imperial Council]]'''. While not among the High Twelve, it is nonetheless a powerful and influential position.{{Fn|26}} There are also lesser lords who, while not part of the High Twelve, are still full members of the Senatorum Imperialis.

Despite their vital importance to the Imperium, the [[Adeptus Astartes]] are not represented among the High Lords. This may have been set up intentionally by [[Roboute Guilliman]] himself as the [[Primarch]] fervently believed that it was the duty of the Space Marines to protect mankind, not rule it.{{Fn|17}} This tradition was broken for a brief period in [[M32]], during the [[War of the Beast]] and [[The Beheading]], when the successive [[Chapter Master]]s of the [[Imperial Fists]] - [[Koorland]] and [[Maximus Thane]] - reigned as Lord Commander of the Imperium (see "History", below).
