Praetor is a protoss rank of high standing and prestige. A coveted rank, a protoss requires a fair amount of skill and experience to obtain it, Artanis being the youngest praetor in protoss history at the age of 262. The exact role of a praetor is not entirely clear, though leading forces into battle and decision making are among them.
As a rank, praetor features as part of the command structure of the Templar Caste, though the Ara Tribe of the Judicator Caste maintained the Conclave Praetor Guard.[1]
Praetor appears equivalent to the Dark Templar rank of prelate, and is sometimes used as a synonym for the latter rank.[2][3][4]
Steward of the Templar
The Steward of the Templar is a term that, as of yet, has only been applied to Praetor Fenix.
