== Overview ==
Aquore’s brightest, Philosophers are the herd’s keepers of knowledge and tradition. A broad spectrum, Philosophers fill a wide variety of roles. Intelligent and level-headed individuals, Philosophers are among the wisest of equines in the herd. They are the only civilian rank with a literacy requirement, and many of the equines who become philosophers have an innate thirst for knowledge.
Most Philosophers will spend years studying one subject, learning all they can about it, and using that knowledge to better the herd. They are researches, tutors, historians, dream interpreters, cartographers, and so much more. Some even go on to write books, adding their own knowledge to Inaria's library for future generations to come.
Most philosophers spend their days indoors with their noses buried in books, though others will looks for more hooves on approaches to obtaining valuable knowledge. Many of these horses are eager to share what they know, looking for ways to assist their herd mates and teach those around them. Some do this by finding those their knowledge would help the most, and just share via casual conversation, while others will hold small classes and demonstrations for anyone who is interested to attend. Apprenticing under a Philosopher is a treat for many, and it opens whole worlds to young, hungry minds. The majority of horses looking to get into Aquore's political world also get their start as Philosophers.
