A mark of major status, refractor fields worn by | A mark of major status, refractor fields worn by Tetuanis officers normally come from one of two sources - awarded by Eternum sector command as a recognition for exemplary service (or good political connections), or as a gift from Eternum's Inquisitorial conclave (awarded to those who the Lord Inquisitor or his underlings see value in). Ironically it is the Inquisitors who have less pomp and circumstance for the award, and their bequethal is merely accompanied by the Inquisitor who nominated the officer and said officer sharing a Knight Lho stub over a game of regicide and reinforcing that the officer must be willing to sacrifice all his pawns for victory. The sector command award is a festival in of itself, with large number of nobles from across the sector attending the ceremony (and the political battle before and after during feasts and introductions) politicking with the rising star officer to try to curry future favors. A last option for earning their refractor field exists, and it is comprised of those either of noble lineage or popular enough to garner planetary attention in the betting wargame (where nobles bet thrones on outcomes of actions and battles)-a well off family who risked a large amount of thrones may invest in their choice by sending them archeotech and other rare goodies they have accumulated over the millenia. Officers who earn their field this way are not eager to share that fact, and either hide it or come up with a cover story to maintain their image and avoid looking like a pet of the nobles. | ||
