The Order of Precedence

The Order of Precedence is the master list of Awards given in the East Kingdom and Awards given to Eastern populace, as well as some non-award information such as the Shield of Chivalry. This monumental task is managed by the Shepherd's Crook Herald, a deputy to the Brigantia Principal Herald. The OP can be viewed Here.

Precedence as a concept

Precedence is the concept that a Duke outranks a Count, who outranks a Viscount, etc. The Order of Precedence serves a very important role. It tells you who has which awards, and from this you can also see who has precedence over whom. Heralds historically tracked such information, and the Eastern College does as well.

There are several distinct areas where precedence is used. The procession of the entrants into Crown Tournament is organized by Precedence. The initial seeding of the tournament is also determined (mostly) by Precedence. When participants enter the lists, precedence may be used to determine who chooses the weapon form. In Curia the Order of Precedence determines the order of he Officer Reports for Greater Officers of the East. At a feast, the persons with the highest precedence give the toasts in order of their precedence.

  • Note: By tradition the Landed Baronage in their own lands are second only to the Royalty present and generally toast the King and Queen.

Precedence, as practiced in the East.
