As for pre/postmodifiers I was thinking more along the lines of stressing their area of expertise which seems to be what the author wanted to point to. I'm considering making them Jasnowidze/Profeci/Wróżbici Zielni, maybe.
The wickedness of all that is connected to the dark side of the force in this book is described and stressed so much that I try to avoid adding any extra "mrok" :)
geopiet - I wouldn't say they were the lowest rank. They are listed as part of the Dread Councils.
