Nein, Armathor ist kein Rang, zumindestn icht im neuen Myth Drannor. Im Alten Myth Drannor galt folgendes:
The primary defenders of the City, or most specifically the
defenders of the Coronal who is the Heart of the City, are the
armathors. Mages and fighters all, these spellguards have two
major ranks: those who protect the city at large, preventing
disturbances and the like, and those who exclusively protect
the Coronal and Castle Cormanthor. In all, there are at least
100 armathors for the city at large and another Honor Spellguard
of 20 armathors for the Coronals Court. After the
Opening and as Myth Drannor grew, other races revealed
heroes of rare valor, and thus a few scouts (rogues & thieves)
also became part of the armathors honored corps.
Armathors are under the command of the eight Court
Mages, all of whom are highly placed wizard/warriors whose
ranks have always been exclusively female. Six are active
leaders among the troops while the final two Court Mages are
elderly Court Sages whose wisdom and constant contact
with the Coronal allows for tight communication between armathors
and the Court; these Sages rarely involve themselves
with the command structures of the armathors, and deal only
with the High Court Mages and the Coronals requests for information.
The Court Mages are wizards or multiclass wizards
of no less than 12th level, while the Sages are at least 500
years old and of 15th or greater levels. Each of the six active
Court Mages commands at least 20 armathors, with the
senior Court Mage as the Honor Guard officer.
Ich würde es im neuen Myth Drannor aber als eine Art Ritterorden interpretieren, der sich der Verteidigung Cormanthyrs und seiner Bewohner verschrieben hat. Ähnlich wie die Harfner, nur eben regional beschränkt.
