The Caste System

Kudos to Setsuna for this lore, with only a little alteration from myself...

Transcendent Caste

- These positions are reserved for the truly gifted and for those who have proven themselves
to be a valuable asset to the unity. Typically one would have to achieve all lower castes before he
or she can achieve a higher title, only on special occasions and under decree by the Empress herself
can one be appointed a title under the Transcendent Caste.

- Coalesence
Leaders of the Advent Empire of whom hold the unity together and lead the advent on the path of revenge and salvation.

- Hierarch's Chosen
These positions are given directly from the Empress to those who are vital to the unity, they have been awarded to those who has achieved either the highest level of mental prowess or exhibited extrodinary capabilities / skill.

- Consort
The will of the Empress / Unity made manifest, he is in charge of the Illumina, the Advents grandest and most powerful fleet, which he oversees and directs the chosen themselves and of that of the advent's populace were deemed needed in times of crisis or threat.

Privilaged Caste

- Titles under this caste are given to those of the civilian population outside the Military and
Transcendence Caste who have exhibited adpt capabilities in various fields.

- Ethereals
Charged with overseeing the Temple of Harmony / Hostility and its directive, which spreads the belief of the Unity to the populace and converted worlds.

- Seekers
Scientific members of the Advent who lead the way in Psytechnology development and
Neurochemical research as well as pioneering new advancements that aid in the spread of the light.

- The Illuminant
The Enlightened civilian populace who've achieved the highest connection with the Unity outside of the Transcendent caste.

- Aegis
The general population of the Advents who are believers of the unity. Believers who
are born as an Advent or those who are converts contribute to the power of the unity as a collective
as each mind is connected to unified consciousness on certain levels.

- Silent Ones
These are outcasts of the Advents, either criminals or those who lack the psycological
and mental capabilities to contribute to the unity. Those who are under this title are either shunned
to a isolated region of a planet or eliminated or used as suicidal pawns to prevent contamination
of the unity.

Unity Caste

- Members under this caste are skilled in infiltration both physically and mentally and have powerful
mental capabilities to forcefully convert populations or kill them. They are commonly used to recruit
new followers but on occasions are called upon to manipulate the enemy driving them mad giving the
Advent fleet a decisive advantage.

- Etherium / Ethereal Weaver
Weavers are members of the unity who are have a powerful grasp on their mental
capabilities. They originate from the followings of harmony and try to convert enemy populations
through peaceful means as well as provide a powerful boost to Advent ships when aboard one.

- Etherium / Ethereal Reaver
- Reavers are quite the opposite from Weavers as they come from teachings of
hostility. Their powers are similar to Weavers but utilize them in the most cruelist of manners,
driving people into extreme bouts of insanity. They also provide the Advents the ability to manipulate
enemy ships to malfunction either disabling them or causing destruction on board.

- Archons
Archons are weapons of war embodied commonly by women of the Advent race.
They may not be as powerful as Weavers or Reavers alone but as a collective they are a force
to be reckoned with. A collective of these Archons can do untold levels of damage to both
physical objects and minds alike. (Note: A collective of Archons has been recorded in
manipulating planetary objects such as asteroids, utilizing them as weapons)

Military Caste

- The head of a spear, the edge on a blade, the unyeilding wrath that is the Advent. Those
who are given a rank under the Military Caste have been proven to be capable beyond all
expectations in the field of combat. Utilizing all that Advent has to offer, they are truly a force to be
reckoned with. Members of this caste follow the will of the Advent without question.

- Executors
Governor generals/admirals whom are in charge with the directive of entire solar systems in coordination with the Transcendent caste's wishes / directive.

- Judicators
Like the Executors above them they are in charge with the directive of entire worlds in coordination with the Executor above them.

- Arbiter
Fleet admirals, charged with the directive of a portion of a transendents' fleets, usually under the command of a chosen.

-Valeron
The Valeron are many and they are all willing to fight for the unity. They maintain
various posts on different ships but are commonly pilots of the huge array of ships under the Advent.
They are devout fighters who carry their orders with great valor and are the backbone of the many
fleets within The Illumina. Those who become Valeron undertake extreme training at a young age to
withstand the taxing neural interfaces of the Advent.
