The following is a quick reference guide to the rank structure of the various branches of the Taldryan Expansionary Force. For historical information, please see Taldryan Military Ranks/Historical.
When interacting with the Taldryan military, Taldryan members will normally be addressed by the Loyalist equivalent of their rank, except the Consul and Proconsul (who are addressed by their titles) and members of the Military Prefecture (who are addressed as "Prefect" regardless of rank).

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 Loyalist rank title.
