Emperor/Empress - The emperors of the Orders are second only to the gods themselves. They are respected almost as if they were gods and are often extremely skilled in their order of magic (frost or flame) or in physical strength as in the Order of Chaos. The emperors listen to the words of the gods and plan attack by them. All lower ranks must obey the emperor or face the consequences. Emperors/Empresses should be at least 25 years old.
Seer - Seers are held in high regards as well. Almost as high as the emperor. They are the head of the apothecaries and the most skilled of healers. They are often given prophecies meant only for them to interpret. The seers are traditionally not skilled in magic and are not ever meant to fight. There can be a total of two seers in each god's following. Seers should be at least 25 years old.
Lieutenants - Lieutenants carry out the Emperor's wishes and commands. They are respected among their lessers and are often army commanders. Lieutenants must be exceedingly skilled in their order of magic and also possess leadership qualities. They are in line to become emperor or empress if the current leader passes and they did not bear children. There can be up to three Lieutenants in each god's following. Lieutenants should be at least 25 years old but have been known to be named a few years younger.
Followers - Simply the fighters of the gods' orders. They need not be extremely skilled in magic. They must follow the leader's orders and disobey at their own risk. Followers make up the largest portion of Ysera. Not all followers fight, however. Followers make up the basis of society and hold all the jobs that keep the cities running. Followers should be at least 16 years old.
Initiates - Those training to be followers. Either their parents or other followers are tasked to training them in the ways of magic and war. Initiates must be at least 13 years and no older than 16 years.
Children - The children born in the land of Ysera that are too young to become Initiates. If they are older they often help their parents around the house and even begin to learn a bit of magic from their parents. Children become initiates at 13 years.
Apothecaries - Those followers who are not extremely skilled in magic and possess little physical strength often opt for the job of the apothecary. Apothecaries heal and treat the fighters' wounds and pray to their respective god for advice and aid. Apothecaries should be at least 16 years old.
Elders - Those followers who have grown too old to fight. They retire to their home and often take up jobs as storytellers or inn keepers. An elder's job to the gods is not over even if they have retired. Elders should be no younger than 60 years old.
