The sand masters are a guild of those able to use sand mastery and one of the eight recognized Lossandin Professions. They are also known as the Diem of the Sand or simply the Diem, a metonym that arose from their ancient headquarters the Diem.
Organization
The sand masters maintain a strict hierarchy of ranks. Lossandin children who wish to become sand masters are subjected to a demanding entrance exam. Those who display any talent at all are entitled by law to enter the guild with the rank of Acolent.[1]
Once a student is accepted as an Acolent, they are trained in the ways of sand mastery until they are deemed worthy for Advancement into one of the seven permanent sand master ranks by the Lord Mastrell.[1] Once promoted, the rank is permanent and one may never again advance in rank.[1] The sole criteria for Advancement is one's skill in sand mastery.
The permanent sand master ranks are:
- Mastrell
- Undermastrell
- Lesstrell
- Underlesstrell
- Diemfen
- Fen
- Underfen
