Suggested new church rank names

I have come up with the following suggestions for new church rank names. I think these new names will add quite a bit more RP favor, and help create a more unique atmosphere in SA.

Current Title Requirements New Title
Holy Prophet Celestial Prophet
Cardinal of the Maddening Star Appointed by Prophet Light of Maddening
Cardinal of the Auspicious Star Appointed by Prophet Light of Auspicious
Cardinal of the Austere Star Appointed by Prophet Light of Austere
Arch Bishop Priest/Ruler of a Theocracy Grande Luminary
Bishop Priest/Lord Luminary
Deacon Priest Illuminated
Inquisitor Judge of a Theocracy Seeker of the Light
Special Envoy Agent of the Church Envoy of the Stars
Guardian of the Temple Warders Guardian of the Temple
Commander of the Temple Ruler of a Theocracy, not a Priest Commander of the Temple
Knight of the Temple Regular full member Knight of the Temple
Knight of the Faith Aspirant rank, RPd as full, doesn't want all messages Knight of the Faith
Novice Novice
Aspirant Aspirant

The three Lights could together be know as the Council of Lights, for making big church decisions.

Feel free to leave any more suggestions here. --Indirik (talk), Editor (talk) 00:34, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

I like the idea of replacing Cardinals by Lights. Hierarch is the Eastern name for an ordinary, or one who ordains, and is as much connected to christianity than bishop is. What if we replaced Hierarch by Illuminated and Hierophant by Keeper of the Light? vonGenf 05:48, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the information. I have replaced "Hierarch" with "Luminary" and "Grande Hierarch" with "Grande Luminary". Luminary is an astrology term (although it deals with sun and moon, rather than stars). I may have to look more into astrology to get some additional background and terminology, since SA is basically a form of Astrology. --Indirik (talk), Editor (talk) 14:21, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
Nice, I like Luminary. I was looking for something between Light and Illuminated, this fits perfectly.
Can I ask why Grande and not Grand? vonGenf 14:36, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
