ADRANA'S SOCIAL HIERARCHY

The Royal Family of Adrana and their Advisers are at the top of the food chain. The king is in charge of passing or rejecting laws, while his wife and children busy themselves with more philantropic ventures that keep their reputation steady. Technically part of the Royal Court, the Royal Family are the most influential people in all of Adrana and the rest of Fadral. Only second to the king in terms of power and rank is the King's Adviser. They busy themself with administrative duties and lend the king their strategic and sometimes even personal advice. Some say the King's Adviser has more power over Adrana than the king himself. Other Royal Advisers report to the King's Adviser. They keep track of the happenings of Adrana and the rest of Fadral and give suggestions concerning laws directly to the King's Adviser, who then passes them on to the king himself. |

The Royal Court theoretically also includes the Advisers and the Royal Family. Other nobility also make up part of the Royal Court. Some of them are selected to help uphold the law in judicial court (which the Royal Family and their Advisers also attend), while others mostly busy themselves with parties and events for nobility and common folk alike. The Courtmaster is the person who keeps track of all the happenings within the Royal Court (outside of the judicial court) and reports back to the King's Adviser, who in turn reports to the King. |

The Guild Artisans and Artists are the makers and merchants of artisanal goods and art. At the top of each guild is a Guildmaster, who is part of the Council of Guilds.

The Common Folk and Servants make up the lowest class of Adranean society. The common folk comprises of those people who do not have the skills to join any of the guilds. Many of them are farmers, others find jobs as servants for the noble folk, or work as servants and aides in the guilds, in inns and taverns, or other places. Some of the Common Folk find jobs in more illicit businesses, too. |
