So I just took a peeksie at the Town Ranks and have some issues. I would suggest we change the ranks to the following:

Cadomyr:

7. Dame, Knight -> Dame/Freifrau , Ritter

Galmair: (I absolutely hate the mogul, etc. ranks because they sound so damn modern)

1. Tramp, Tramp| Rumtreiberin, Rumtreiber
2. Assistant, Assistant| Gehilfin, Gehilfe
3. Pedlar, Pedlar| Hausiererin, Hausierer
4. Grocer, Grocer| Krämerin, Krämer
5. Merchant, Merchant| Kauffrau, Kaufmann
6. Guild Mistress, Guild Master | Zunftmeisterin, Zunfttmeister
7. Financier, Financier| Finanzier, Finanzier
8. Patrician, Patrician| Patrizierin, Patrizier
9. Councillor, Councillor | Ratsmitglied, Ratsmitglied
10. Chief Councillor, Chief Councillor| Ratsvorstand, Ratsvorstand
11. Don, Don| Don, Don

Functional titles like Guild Mistress / Master would concern me... unless you can guarantee a lot of fully fledged guilds for the Don then yes please!

Discord told me to agree with this.

Nah, honestly I totally agree that "Ritterin" sounds very bad as a translation for a female knight. I mean, we can absolutely keep "knight" in English, I guess, but "Dame" would be way better in German.

Cannot say much about the Galmair titles, though.
