Ranks in the Atlantian College of Heralds

In order to track individual progress as heralds, the Atlantian College of Heralds employs a System of Ranks similar to that of other Colleges throughout the Society. Ranks are a relative indicator of the breadth of knowledge a herald may possess or their experience in a specific field of endeavor. The ranks employed in Atlantia are:

  • CORNET - This is the beginning rank of any herald. A herald holds this rank for the first year of their training. They work to gain the necessary skillset to better serve the populace in their chosen area of focus.

  • PURSUIVANT EXTRAORDINARY - This intermediate rank of herald possesses the basic skills of each area of heraldry. However, they are now concentrating study in more specific areas to gain a level of expertise that will better serve the populace.

  • PURSUIVANT - This rank represents special achievement in a herald's chosen area(s) of study. While they are competent in all areas of heraldic endeavor, they have gained significant expertise in one or more areas and actively pursue using that knowledge to serve the populace. In cases of exceptional knowledge or service, Triton may grant a title. Titled Pursuivants have specific duties within the CoH and retain that title only while serving in that position.

  • HERALD - This rank indicates expertise in all areas of heraldic endeavor and a commanding need to use that knowledge to serve the populace. Certain titles are bestowed upon Heralds only so long as a they serve a specific function within the CoH. Others may be bestowed permanently for extraordinary service.
