SCA Order of Precedence

In the SCA, the order of Precedence is a listing of all the people who have received awards, ordered from the highest ranking to the lowest. Ranking (or precedence) is determined by the highest level of award received, and the date an award of that level was first given to the recipient. The earlier a person received an award, the higher they appear on the order of precedence.

The ranking of awards in Lochac, from highest to lowest, are:

Note that if person A had received a laurel and a pelican in the last year, an person B had received a laurel three years ago, person B would be ranked higher, having reached peerage level first. The fact that someone has obtained a second award at a certain level does not add to their precedence.

The sitting Royalty rank above all others on the Order of Precedence. Individual kingdoms may have additional ranks as well as slight variations with respect to Court Baronies.

For example, An Tir has a permanent award, the Lion of An Tir, which ranks higher than a Duke or Duchess within An Tir. An Tir also includes Landed and formerly Landed Barons and Baronesses on its order of precedence. Additionally Kingdom Officers are sometimes given a place of precedence, although this practice was discontinued in An Tir in November of A.S. XXXVIII.
