Talk:The Royal Protector/@comment-1782059-20130303224446/@comment-5607198-20130304003357

the way I understood it is, the postion is Royal Protector, which by necessity grants a Lordship. Thus, "Lord Protector" to remain formal, but respectful of his status. It's the same reason you call a regent Lord Regent (as they do in the game for Burrows)

Granted, this is based on my half-remembered rules of etiquette on dignities and titles from years ago
