Please note: It is possible for someone of a lower site rank than you (C, B, etc) to hold a higher Knight position than you. If your Knight rank is below someone else's, they should generally be deferred to or respected as a superior authority ICly, regardless of branch. Rank ups are approved by either the Director or Field Marshal.
Each rank above Private is allowed a "squad" of NPC soldiers that they can consider themselves to be in charge of. These soldiers are only for personal arc and RP purposes and may not be used in PVP or Event threads unless they are worked into your magic somehow, such as with summoning or bond magic. Players may choose to be a part of a higher ranking PC's personal squad if both parties agree to it.
The branches and their rank bars are established by color. Teal is Combat, grey is Spec Ops, and gold is Engineering. The enlisted rank bars are silver, as enlisted soldiers are not necessarily specialized in one specific branch yet. The rank bars for the marshal and director are also silver as they are in charge of all three branches.
