==Rank and Skill Level (OOC Info)==
The Brotherhood's Loyalist rank titles reflect how a member's authority increases as they gain experience, but don't accurately reflect the skill level of career NCOs. To correct that oversight, some Taldryan military NPCs use senior NCO rank titles that correspond to their skill level, rather than the standard officer's rank title.
