Detyre Priory
The official government body of Adessa is called the Priory. They are a scholarly order dedicated to the finding and protecting of knowledge and lore. There are small branches of the Priory in other capitals as well, allowing other races to join the ranks. The members of the Priory offer their services as advisers, tutors and chroniclers to these capitals; and often conduct explorations and excavations in search of lost knowledge.
The highest branch of the Priory, and the branch responsible for the governing of Adessa, is the Magistrate. There are always seven magisters, and each is tasked with their own branch of duty, but major decisions are always passed by vote.
The ranks of the Priory are as follows:
Novices: untested new recruits.
Explorers: standard members, the bulk of man labor tasked with artifact knowledge recovery.
Scholars: the academic, more research-oriented version of the explorers.
Templars: the soldiers of the Priory, tasked with the protection of its members and of Adessa.
Arcanists: magical artifact protectors and researchers, tend to be leaders of expeditions.
Archons: those who deal with dangerous knowledge and artifacts, called in when dangerous artifacts are discovered and need dealing with.
Magister: Highest rank and ruling figurehead.
