Sovereign Court 4/5

I see another has been elevated to the greatest body of nobility across all of Golarion. Fear not young noble, as I shall give you a lesson in the ways of titles of our empire. You see there are several types of noble titles in use today.

Landed Nobles, which are those high noble titles that are vested with land in Taldor. Of These, the highest of these is Grand Duke, whose vast lands form great parts of a prefecture. They descend up the lowest of the landed noble titles of Baron. The sons and daughters of nobles also hold non-landed titles and honorifics that distinguish them as people of import but not the rulers of said lands. The son of a Baron is a Baronet in formal terms, more commonly referred as simply a Lord.

In your case you have an honorific title of nobility. You see at times there is a need to recognize the great accomplishments of those who perform services for the Primogen Crown. When these moments occur the Imperial family can grant titles of nobility that grant no lands but serve to distinguish one from the masses of the Unbearded.

But fear not, if you can acquire land, fame and fortune a truly noble title will be given unto you. Perhaps one day you may be a Duke, Count, or Baron, and your family name will be the stuff of legend.
