	Ephor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There were five ephors elected annually, who swore each month to uphold the rule of the two kings, while the kings swore to uphold the law.
		The ephors were elected by the popular assembly, and all citizens were eligible for election.
		The ephors were also considered to be personally at war with the helots, so that they could imprison or execute any of them for any reason at any time without having to bring them to trial or violate religious rituals.

	Ephor - LoveToKnow 1911
		There is no evidence for the theory that originally the ephors were market inspectors; they seem rather to have had from the outset judicial or police functions.
		In historical times the ephors were five in number, the first of them giving his name to the year, like the eponymous archon at Athens.
		The ephors were elected annually, originally no doubt by the kings, later by the people; their term of office began with the new moon after the autumnal equinox, and they had an official residence (Oop€Iov) in the Agora.

		Its five members are chosen from among all the people, with the result that very often men who are not at all well-off find themselves holding this office, and their lack of means makes them open to bribery.
		And just because the power of the ephors is excessive and dictatorial, even the Spartan kings have been forced to curry favor with them.
		The ephors have powers of jurisdiction also, and decide cases of importance; but considering that anybody at all may hold the office, it would be better that they should not have power to give verdicts on their own, but only to decide in accordance with stated rules and regulations.

	Mythos - Guide
		Ephors are able to delete posts and discussions from their kingdom's assembly, vote for and declare war against other kingdoms, and change their kingdom's name, whereas non-ephor cities can not perform any of these actions.
		Ephors that are no longer under their patron's guard are presented with the option of voting for war against another kingdom, or voting for no war at all.
		If more than 50% of the ephors in your kingdom vote for war against the same kingdom, then each ephor in your kingdom will be given the option to officially declare war against that kingdom.
