Nobles

The Nobles of Quarsus are the ruling class, each deriving their power from the noble above them and the Shahraam himself and serve at the pleasure of those in leadership over them.

All Nobles, regardless of their rank wear the Raamtorq, often as a bracelet or a necklace to indicate their status as a noble. The Raamtoq is gifted to them from the Shahraam himself upon their coronation. Nobles do not necessarily pass their title down through their family lines, though it is understood that the children of Nobles will also be granted their father’s titles. Possessing a Raamtorq without the title associated with it is punishable by death, no questions asked which means that should someone find one they would never dare even touch the item even to return it for fear of being killed.

Titles
Spahbadh: Senior Noble rank, those carrying this title will hold supreme command levels within the court of the Shahraam or as Sentishahs ruling a Canton.

Anderzbadh: A second tier noble who could be found ruling a holding of a Spahbadh or serving in the Court of one of their better.

Istandar: A lesser noble who may be found ruling smaller holdings or serving in the Courts of their betters.

Karrogbadh: An entry level noble who serves in the Courts of their betters and dreaming of ascending to a higher level where they can hold real power. This title is often given to Pankrates and Donkrates as a boon for exceptional service.
