Within specific fields (e.g. judiciary, ecclesiastical, guilds) and professions (e.g. sages, magic users, clerics) there exists a clear hierarchy, usually associated with degree of expertise and ability. These class titles are set out below.

While these ranks of priority are well-defined and codified, there is an informal social stratification that is widely understood. This broadly categorises people into a social status (e.g. upper class, lower class), as set out below.
