The College of Phœnissæ is the organization of priestesses of the [[Temple of the Golden Phœnice]].  They are under the direct jurisdiction of the [[High Phœnissa]]. The Phœnissae are protected by the [[Phœnician Guard]]. Phœnissae are selected as young children from Aurician noble families, sometimes born out of wedlock, but more often the daughters of Elder Phœnissae.  A golden Phœnissa must remain a virgin until she is deemed an elder, usually at the age of thirty when she may marry.  Upon the death  or the very rare removal or departure from office of a living High Phœnissa, the Elder Phœnissae elect the new High Phœnissæ.
