Earthweavers, also known as the King's Mages, protect the King and Dal-Tahir. They receive formal training at the capital's Mage Forge, and are proficient in protection spells, including Dispel Magic and Magic Shield.
The order is dominated by wizards (particularly, but not limited to earth). They move the elements (earth, water, air, and fire (lava)), protect defenses and troops, and use ritual magic for permanent work. Some focus on controlling elementals (particularly earth) for excavating earth, creating air conduits, etc. Combat mages (focused on dealing damage) are rare, and it is not a path to the higher ranks.
Rank structure (and their symbols):
The Arch Weaver is almost always an earth wizard. Their accoutrement is a stone staff with a large cut diamond mounted on the top.
Major Forges are often run by Master Weavers.
