Noble Titles
Drawn from MgT1e's Book 8: Dilettante.

Knight (Soc 11): Knighthood is an honorific granted for exceptional service or achievement. It is the highest aristocratic award achievable by those outside of a noble family. When knighted, the beneficiary joins a particular Order of Knighthood. These historic and respected organisations are good sources of patrons and useful contacts. Although many of those made knight already hold high Social Standing from their achievements in other fields, the title allows them access into noble society and its commiserate responsibilities.

Baron (Soc 12): Barons are the lowest order of the peerage and assigned the control of an entire world, usually one of lesser importance. A baron who was granted his honorary title for unswerving dedication and loyalty, but lacks a planet to administer, is known as a baronet. A baronet is treated as being inferior to a true baron.

Marquis (Soc 13): Marquises govern a single system, generally those containing at least one major world with excellent star port facilities. Despite the prevalence of worlds with good starports in some sectors, only the most important militarily or economically are granted a marquis.

Count (Soc 14): Counts are granted authority over several systems within the same subsector. These systems generally contain the most heavily populated worlds. It is unusual for a count to be given a system whose worlds are already under the rule of a lesser noble.

Duke (Soc 15): Dukes rule over entire subsectors and all those nobles assigned worlds within it. A sector duke is the senior duke of that region, promoted to coordinate the actions of the other subsector dukes.
