The House of Lords[a] (commonly shortened to as the Lords) is the upper house and secondary chamber of the Government of the Kingdom of Ikonia. Like the lower house, the House of Commons, it meets in the official Discord server.

The Lords is a chosen body of peers of the realm consisting of 6 members known as Lords. They are chosen to scrutinize, debate, and approve or deny new acts for the Kingdom from the Commons to forward the development of the Kingdom's growing interest in laws.

The House of Lords originated as the Privy Council, established on 24 April 2021. The Privy Council served as an advisory body to the Monarch on all matters.
