Indominus Legion Ranks

The Indominus Legion is divided into *fifteen* Military ranks, as well as a series of political stations that work closely to keep the wheels of Humanity's ambition moving. These are not to be confused with **Sub-spec** Ranks, which are specific to one's Specialisation.

## Military Ranks

### Recruit

The Legionary Recruits are our warriors in training. Rarely ever seen on the frontlines, except for conducting the likes of simple combat exercises, the Recruits aspire to join their Legionary brethren on the glorious battlefield. They bide their time within their combat centres, pushing through their crushing training.

One thing is certain though. Every last of the Legion's infamed Imperius Lords were once Legionary Recruits, and their position is a testament to the potential of these new warriors.

#### Legionary

The starting Rank and most common rank in the Legion. Upon finishing their training Legionaries will be granted their own INVICTA, CNMOS and EABAR and sent onto the galactic battlefields of the Legion to ensure the eternal victory of the Sol Supremacy. Based on their specific skill sets they might also receive their own starfighter to hunt down enemies in space.

They are assigned to follow an **Immune** as their senior into combat. While fully trained they still need to gather lots of experience to rise in the ranks and reach higher ranks and join a specialisation.

#### Immune

Having proven their skill on the Battlefield these Legionnaires have been promoted to **Immunes**. They are the veterans in facing down enemy forces and inspire their subordinate Legionnaires. Having proven their strategic and practical capabilities they are granted access to the Specialisations and can pick one of them to join and begin their special training with them.

Immunes can often be found among either Legionnaires or their fellow Immunes if more elite Squads are requested to take down enemy forces.

#### Centurion

After having proven their ability to command their fellows an **Immune** might be granted the Rank of Centurion and along with it a Centurion to command. It is their job to ensure the safety of their entrusted men as well as executing their superiors orders to ensure their centurion's victory. They often are surrounded by their Immunes to get their counsel to make the best decisions in combat but would be able to make the necessary calls themselves if needed.

They get access to better standard Equipment and can customise it further.

#### Praetorian

A Praetorian instils fear in their enemy and rightfully so. They form the core of the Legions' assaults coordinating their subordinate Centurions to eradicate any trace of resistance and turn the tide of small and medium sized battles in their favour. They get access to better Versions of the standard INVICTA (up to Mk VII) and command more troops.

Praetorians are the first rank to be granted command of their own vessels and can be seen commanding light cruisers and gunboats.

#### Commodore/Valus

Being Seasoned Strategists and Commanders, a Commodore or Valus (depending if deployed in the Exercitus or Malustarium) commands his own large ship or a group of **Praetorians**. They plan and execute grander battleplans according to the objectives set forth by their commanders. An Officer of this rank should strive to inspire their subordinates to even greater feats even if they themselves can not be found on the front lines as often anymore.

#### Tribune/Triearch

These Warlords are feared among their enemies. While still coordinating with their fellows they use their subordinate forces to terrifyingly precision to squash their opponents. They can utilise many years of experience on the battlefield or on the command deck of their ships and get command of their own Subfleet in a Tribune Fleet.

Among the citizens of the Legions worlds seeing a Tribune is a rare sight commemorated with great prise.

#### General

Starting from the Rank of General the Legions Officers become true commanders. They oversee both the naval and ground efforts of the Battlefleet under their command. They only get issued broad commands from their superiors and plan their own strategies to reach these targets. They can be often seen counselled by their Admirals and Exalts but none of them would dare to speak up against their general as he has truly etched his name into the region of the Universe he is employed to. The fearful screams of their enemies heralding the power and genius of the Legions Admirals for all to hear. Generals have access to significant resources and get an entire Battlefleet as well as the appropriate amount of ground forces to command to reach their mission objective.

#### Ministarium

Where there is no margin of error and an enemy force needs to be eradicated fully a Ministarium is called down to the battlefield. They take command of 1 or up to 3 Generals and their fleets to bring doom to their unlucky opponents. A Ministarium will be found in an INVICTA IX at least and onboard their personal flagship which can reach the size of an Mors Dreadnought. They take command of the forces necessary to vanquish any thread to the Legion within their sectors.

With the privilege and skill granted to them they form the royalty of the Sol Supremacy.

#### Legate

Ruling their own planets or coordinating up to 8 **Ministariums** and their respective Theatres of War, a Legate taking interest in a conflict is the arrival of a true angel of death for their enemies. With their arrival a Legate terrorizes his enemies hearts and spirits having after all already proven countless times that their skill is hard to find an equal to an dominated by a deadly efficiency. You will not find them deployed on the regular battlefields of the Legion unless absolutely necessary but if they ever deem it necessary to fight on the front along with their men, death will soon come to take their enemies. Some Legates are even known to get awarded command of an entire Cohort of Fleets. Their access to resources is enormous. Legates typically conquer multiple systems if not entire sectores.

#### Lord Commander

Entering the first Rank of the Legions Military High command a Lord Commander is not just a master strategist of countless battles but an architect of war itself. They plan the eternal conquest of the Legion before the enemy even knows their death sentence has long been signed by these legendary officers.
A Lord Commander will be accompanied by 3 **Legates** to execute their plans across wide parts of a galaxy. If they ever deem it necessary to set foot onto a battlefield themselves no enemy remains to tell the story about it. They have access to basically whatever resource they deem necessary to ensure the Legions victory in battle and the security in their Quadrants.

#### Lord Marshall

A Lord Marshall often is not concerned with only how to wage war but often had his hands in the decision whom to wage war against in the beginning. Their focus lies within assuring the Legions victory across their entire galaxy. Taking command of **Lord Commanders** and commanding up to an entire **Malustarium** and an **Annex Lordan** their resources are nearly infinite to reach their goals. They decide for themselves where their skills are most needed to ensure the Legions supremacy unless they get deployed by their superior officers. They also often can be seen among **Lord Imperators** whom they counsel. Serving also as police for the officers of the Legion you can only hope to not incur their anger as their watchful gaze will report any infractions against the Legions creeds swiftly and direct the Maxim Judiciary to smite those that have fallen for the heresy.

#### Lord Imperator

You do not want to attract the attention of a Lord Imperator. Having access to nearly unlimited resources and coordinating assaults on a galactic level they carry out the orders of the Lord Emperor himself. They lay waste to civilisations and slay worlds. Their wrath consumes armies and their authority is supreme in their domains. Commanding as many subordinates as they deem necessary to achieve their goals they bring doom to their enemies. Finding them on the battlefield is no sight an enemy will have any chance to report. These are the heroes of the Legion and the nightmares of their enemies.

#### Patriarch

Only a selected few of these are present in every Galaxy ruling it with the necessary might. Not normally concerned with the smaller details of battle strategies they can take command of basically every operation they wish to. If a Patriarch is deployed though it is a good sign that some of the Legions most vital interests are concerned in this matter and victory has to be assured at every cost. Using their **Lord Imperators** and **Lord Marshalls** to carry out their will and orders, a Patriarch is not questioned. Their insight into combat is limitless and they often engage in their own research and engineering project resulting in them possessing troops or gear you would not find anywhere else in the Universe. Having the honour of being in the presence of a Patriarch is an honour not easily forgotten by a common Legionnaire.

#### Grand Patriarch

The Grand Patriarchs are the battlemasters of the Legion. Engaging in never ending conquest they are always surrounded by their counsel of **Lord Imperators** and **Lord Marshalls** to give them direct orders for how to execute their grand plans to unfold over entire enemy empires and burn them to ashes. In every given Galaxy only two Officers ever hold these titles and the enormous power associated with it. There are no limits to the resources these Officers can command within their galaxy as their plans often involve entire armies and the economies of hundreds of sectors of space.

#### Primus Patriarch

There is no comparison to the might and glory of a Primus Patriarch. An entire galaxy is considered their personal domain, all military forces within it are subjected to their command, every planet has to obey their command. Bar the Imperial Commander himself there is no higher military authority in the Universe. The Primus Patriarch only has one goal, expanding the Immortality and ensuring the eternal rule of the Lord Emperor by the means of the Imperius. Their will is unbreakable like the heart of a black hole and they will not hesitate to use the nearly infinite resources at their disposal to bring doom to anyone foolish enough to challenge them.

## Political Ranks

While the Supremacy is militaristic, the military leaders do not usually have control over civillian matters. These are left to the councils of the Magistratus, the most celebrated politicial figures of the Sol Supremacy.

#### Magistratus

Not being as much a military rank as more a leadership of the Sol Supremacy as a whole a Magistratus is a being respected by everyone and their commands followed to every word. They often get assigned specific areas of expertise which they have been specifically selected for based on their prior service in the specialisations or their general military service. They are to use those experiences and skills to the betterment of the legion and the advancement of the legions eternity.
They command all resources they deem necessary to fulfil their plans. Their plans on the other hand shape the future of billions over billions of lives and there are very few beings more powerful than a Magistratus. If they decided to interfere in military matters they are respected supremely as they often act on orders or plans much grander and much more secret than a regular officer of similar status is granted knowledge of. At the very least they can command the likes of a **Patriarch** at will though.

#### Lord Magistratus

The Lord Magistratus are the chosen of the Lord Emperor. Their word is eternal law and their plans will be executed. No limits are placed on their resources as their commands are seen as if spoken by the Dark Ashen himself. Only the 8 Primuses are granted this elusive title; indicating their place at the very head of the Legion as well as their place as in the direct line of succession should catastrophe ever strike the Emperor and the unthinkable become reality.
They rule over the **Magistratus** and the Legion as a whole while also overseeing their respective Specialisations and oversee the great plan of the Lord Emperor is fulfilled and order is kept within the Legion. Among their prestigious circle are the Imperial Commander, commander in chief of all armed forces of the Legion, and the **Primus Magistratus**.

#### Primus Magistratus

The Primus Magistratus is the Head of the **Lord Magistratus**. His voice is the voice of the **Lord Emperor** himself. His rule will not be challenged. His decisions will be served out. His commands are serviced by every living being in the entire Sol Supremacy. Within them the power is vested to make the final decisions on any matter brought to their attention. Only one person, a living legend within the Legion, can hold this title. Although they are technically still only a Lord Magistratus their true power exceeds this position. Their sit as head of the council of the 8 and hold the 3rd place in the succession of power.
