Rank Structure

[Darth Ferus]

Just as the post title says, I want to figure out the rank structure then go make an actual thread (And even get tags!).

A few rank name ideas I'd like to throw out there: Ghost, Shadow, Nightstalker, Reaper, Wraith, Master Assassin, Novice Assassin, Senior Assassin, Phantom, Leviathan, Infiltrator.

We could also go by the martial arts belt system if need be.

Some most of these wouldn't be good rank names, but cool-sounding titles

Well I thought Initiate sounded good as an opening rank title or Novice.

Ranks could go:

Initiate
Apprentice
Assassin Cadet
Assassin
Assassin Mentor (if you start mentoring Initiates and Apprentices.)
Assassin General
Elite Assassins (Who could have individual titles given by the Master of Assassins.)
Master of Assassins.

I love the titles. That will be something I'll look into.

And I also love the ranks. Now, for now, we won't have that many ranks. We're not enough people to warrent that many ranks. But if we grow, I'll be bringing in more of those ranks, that's for sure.

As I'm not technically an assassin, I'll just take something that fits more in for Q

I personally have a dislike of using the same word repetitively and having our duty in the name. Like "Assassin Acolyte" etc. Singular names of ranks shouldn't have to spell out who they fight for, that way we can use them as a title and those that learn of the Assassins can learn there is a rank system.

Reaper "Death's Touch" Vual, at your service.

I call Spymaster before anyone else.
I'll build up a network of contacts and agents, and be able to supply targets and missions whenever.
I'd be willing to NPC almost all of them for whoever chooses to do them.

I like Vual's idea, having a title we can use that will be mysterious to any who we encounter.

On the flip side of the coin, we can use the ranking system as a strictly interior metric of skill/development.
