q is a member of the Five Elders, who are the heads of the World Government.

Appearance
is a bald man who has a very large white mustache as well as birthmark spots on his forehead. He wears a black suit over a black tie and a white buttoned shirt, as well as black pants. In the anime, he initially had a short white beard, but lost it after the timeskip.

Personality
Like the other elders, cares about the balance in the world maintained by the Three Great Powers and wishes to maintain it. He appears to be patient, as he was content to observe Shanks' potentially threatening actions and not rush to intervene. However, he cursed Crocodile and Luffy for threatening the balance when the latter removed the former from the Shichibukai, saying that Luffy could not be forgiven. He also wishes to preserve the image of the World Government by keeping the events of the Void Century a secret, and he and the other elders will immediately have anyone destroyed who is found to be studying it.

He appears to take positions of authority seriously, as he disapproved of Admiral Aokiji going off on his own without telling anyone. Like the other elders, he has little tolerance for people of lower rank challenging their authority, as shown during the elders' meeting with Marine Fleet Admiral Sakazuki. was especially abrasive toward Sakazuki, reminding him of his place and failures by mentioning how Aokiji had joined forced with Blackbeard.

He also seems to value racial harmony, as he was displeased to hear of Jinbe's resignation from the Shichibukai, which had maintained bonds between humans and fishmen.

Abilities and Powers
As a member of the Five Elders, is one of the few to have the "highest authority of the World Government", being above even the World Nobles. He has control over every facet of the World Government, including the police, the Marines, and Cipher Pol, and even the Fleet Admiral of the Marines is incapable of challenging his power. As a result, he has authority to declare a Buster Call, and he and the other elders can use their great degree of power to manipulate the media and withhold facts from the general public, including erasing entire segments of history, most notably the Void Century. The only known person who seems to outrank the World Nobles is Im.

's physical abilities are unknown, although the scar on his face indicates that he was in at least one confrontation at one point. The elders were also confident that they could meet with Shanks, an extremely powerful pirate and one of the Yonko, without having anyone to guard him.

Ohara Incident
Twenty-two years ago, the Five Elders spoke via Den Den Mushi to Professor Clover, an archaeologist from Ohara who was revealed to have been studying the Poneglyphs. Clover revealed that he knew too much about the Void Century, causing the Five Elders to order the Cipher Pol unit on Ohara to eliminate him and for a Buster Call to destroy Ohara and its historians.

Jaya Arc
A Marine came to the Room of Authority to report that Shanks had made contact with Whitebeard. Although the prospect of two Yonko meeting was dangerous, said to observe the situation first without rushing to intervene. The elders then talked about finding a replacement for Crocodile's Shichibukai position, and cursed Crocodile and Monkey D. Luffy for causing this kind of trouble.

Long Ring Long Land Arc
The Five Elders got a call that Marine Admiral Aokiji had gone off on his own, and disapproved, stating that Aokiji needed to mind his rank.

Post-Enies Lobby Arc
The Five Elders received a report that Shanks had successfully met with Whitebeard himself, to their shock.

Post-War Arc
The Five Elders talked about the aftermath of the Battle of Marineford, with stating that Jinbe's resignation from the Shichibukai was a blow toward racial harmony between humans and fishmen. They then talked about Blackbeard's rise to power, and stated that the pirate had a clear head start in the race to fill the Yonko position formerly held by Whitebeard due to having consumed two Devil Fruits.

Dressrosa Arc
Fleet Admiral Sakazuki came to the Room of Authority to question the Five Elders about why they let Donquixote Doflamingo use the World Nobles' authority to misinform the entire world. The elders reminded Sakazuki of his place and reprimanded his insolence, with reminding him about former Admiral Aokiji joining forces with Blackbeard. A Marine then came in and revealed that Luffy and Trafalgar Law's alliance had taken down Doflamingo, and that their victory had been broadcast to the entire world, shocking the elders and Sakazuki.

Reverie Arc
As the Reverie was beginning, the Five Elders were approached by Shanks. Because of his position, they reluctantly allowed him to talk to them about a certain pirate, and ordered for all the soldiers to leave the Room of Authority. After meeting with Shanks, they headed toward the Empty Throne, and talked about how king Nefertari Cobra of Alabasta had requested to meet with them. Upon reaching the Empty Throne, they knelt before its occupant Im as they requested that Im tell them the name of the "light" that needed to be extinguished from history.
