Bonus Post: On the Rankings of the Anubian Military

Some helpful information on the Anubian Military rankings, provided by Anne.

This is just reference point for those who want it/want clarification. Enjoy!

Since we've heard so much concerning the Anubian Military, here is a list of their rankings (from highest ranking to lowest ranking), and a breif description of them where applicable.

GENERAL-there are only 5 of these ever. They make up the Anubian High Council that governs the system. Two are responsible for Anubis itself, two for Isis and one governs Osiris (hence its apparent lawlessness). Two prominent ones in the story so far are Victoriana's Father (one of the two on Anubis) and Violet's father (one of the two on Isis. However, shortly after Violet is rescued, he is stripped of his rank and a new General is installed on Isis.)

LIEUTENANT GENERAL-There are two of these (on quite special and rare occasions three) for every general. Making only ten of them at a time. When Victoriana leaves the Anubian military, this is her rank.

BRIGADIER GENERAL

BRIGADIER

COMMANDER
-This is the highest ranking an Anubian or an off-worlder of non-noble birth can attain. Only nobility can be promoted above this station.

FIRST LIEUTENANT

LIEUTENANT
-The rank at which Victoriana entered the Anubian military.

SERGEANT MAJOR

SERGEANT
-The minimum ranking at which the military will pull recruits for the KOTS program from.

CORPORAL

CAPTAIN
-Victoriana calls herself Captain of the Feisty Dragon, even though she never had this rank while in the military. (Curious, eh?)

PRIVATE
-The rank at which Arturius entered the Anubian military.
