Praetor decal
Praetor is a protoss rank of high standing and prestige. A coveted rank, Artanis became the youngest praetor in protoss history.[1]
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.[2]
Praetor appears equivalent to the Dark Templar rank of prelate, and is sometimes used as a synonym for the latter rank.[2][3][4][5] Purifiers continue to use praetor as a rank and normally fill the position with AI personalities based off past protoss praetors.[6]
Even after the fall of the Conclave, praetors who served as military leaders pledged loyalty to the Daelaam.[7]

Notes[]
- Praetor Fenix was referred to as "Steward of the Templar."[8] It's unclear whether this is a separate rank or an honorific.
- A praetor decal is available in StarCraft II upon reaching level 22 with protoss. The decal is the outline of a protoss head, though one with the nerve cords cut. This is noteworthy, as praetor is a Khalai rank, and the decal was implemented in Heart of the Swarm before the Khalai severed their nerve cords.[9]
- In Ancient Rome, Praetors were officials who held important administrative positions. They also served as military commanders.
