Dalaran Peerage

The Peerage of Dalaran is very different from the other Human Nations. As Dalaran is not ruled by a monarchy and is a small city-state and therefore cannot give out landed titles. Instead the peerage of Dalaran takes form in the rank structure of the organizations within the city. The Council of Six and it's leader take on the position of kings and the Archmagi below them take on the positions of the nobility. Due to the fact that their are no families and the rank of archmagi is given out based on merit it is impossible to marry into 'nobility' in Dalaran. Instead what many noble familes that wish to gain a foothold in Dalaran do is send a child to apprentice in Dalaran. There is always competition to be apprenticed to the more influential archmages and council members. There are a few noble houses that pledge themselves to the Council of Six and Dalaran, but those are few and far between and their noble titles and lands are always given to them by other kingdoms first.
