New Nightwing Ranks!

The following ranks are listed based off of military or civilian branches.  For Trainees to advance, they must attend a boot camp.  To advance from Guardian/Tracker into something more specialized, you must go through personal training with a designated and approved trainer, and if seen unfit, will remain Guardian/Tracker until a later time.  

Orange Classes only have to take orders from Oculus, the rest must take orders from their superiors.

Military ranks:

*Note:  Armor will have colored stripes to match rank, e.g Imperial Guard will have purple, Enforcers blue, ect.

Tracker:
    Messenger: The job of the messenger is to keep the Empire up to speed on situations.  The Messenger is the news bringer, the one that helps deliver vital information that keep the Empire safe and thriving.  Fast wings and endurance are a necessity for messengers.  Extreme loyalty, dedication, and hard work can earn a lucky messenger the title of Royal Messenger, used by the Emperor personally for their secrecy and always delivering.          
    Scout: The scout provide vital information on upcoming terrain for the approaching army, helps strategize the best route to take, and reports on the positions of enemy armies, preventing disastrous ambushes.  Speed and being nimble are required for avoiding detection and not being caught.
    Spy:  The spy are the devious and crafty type, working their ways into the heart of the enemy, learning their secrets, and delivering them back to the Empire without being detected.  Only the sly and quick witted are capable of fulfilling the role of a spy, and they must show a will of iron to never break in the worst case scenario of being caught.

Assassin:  Only the best of the best can become the dreaded Assassin.  These dragons answer to only one person, and one person only, Oculus.  Once a mission is assigned to them, it is considered as a complete mission, as failure is not in their vocabulary.  Sometimes called ghosts, these 'soldiers' are practically invisible, either protecting someone from the shadows, or observing their prey.  When attacking their prey, they take them out with a clean kill, before disappearing into the shadows unseen.  Few can make it as an Assassin, as their duties are wide, and are considered the most feared in the Night Wing Army.  If your name is marked by them, it is not a matter of if they will get you, but rather when.

Guardian:
    Police:  The police are in charge of maintaining the borders of the Empire, and keeping the crime rates down inside the Empire.  They are trained to be disciplined and to take out threats, hopefully avoiding lethal force and capturing any criminal.
    Enforcer:  The Enforcers are the elites of the police, capable of taking down many threats to the Empire.  They are most commonly deployed along the borders, keeping rogues out as well as many other dangers.  They are known to deploy lethal force to protect the Empire.  Only the strong can serve as an enforcer, and they are very disciplined.
    Soldier:  The Soldier makes up the core of the NightWing Empire Army.  They go through much training, like the Enforcers, and work as a unit to take out the threats to the Empire.  Disciplined and strong, they serve their Empire dutifully, and are rewarded with paid breaks when off of training and during peacetime.
    Imperial Guard:  The Imperial Guard are the personal army of the Emperor.  They are the strongest, most disciplined troops the NightWing Empire has to offer.  Only the best have a chance at making it as an Imperial Guard.  The Imperial Guard are considered honor guards not only for their status and duty, but for their skills too.
    Royal Guard:  The Royal Guard are seen as Captains of the Imperial Guard, being the best of the best of the best.  They are the wall between the Emperor's life and danger.  Each Royal Guard is selected from the Imperial Guards, and only after strenuous training will be indoctrinated to the Royal Guards.

Specialties:
    Combat Medic:  The Combat Medic is someone who is willing to face danger to save the wounded.  They deploy their knowledge of medicine to quickly patch up a fallen warrior to take them back safely to where they can receive more proper treatment.  Combat Medic's are usually protected by their fellow soldiers, but are not afraid to get into combat if needed, but treating the wounded is always priority #1
    Siege Engineers:  Siege Engineers are the masters of contraptions, building anything from anti air weapons, anit projectiles, to things to destroy fortresses.  The Siege Engineers are primarily used to counter any human contraption flung at the Empire's army, and to break down pesky forts.

Civilian Ranks:

Can you explain more about the roles of soldiers?
(I made a guardian nightwing (probably best suited for frontline combat) and i'm wondering what to do with him)

Guardians are the all around heavy troop. They are put where needed. Soldiers specialize in combat against the enemy in the army, Police monitor the boarders & internal affairs, Imperial Guards defend the Capital.

he'll be a good guardian then (he's part firewing so 100ft)

Is everybody going to choose a new rank here? I need to know whom is whom for the list

whoops didn't mean to post that as cordath longinus (sephir) is one of my other characters natsu

Rank ups require my approval. :3 Keep everyone as Guardian/tracker until I give em a new rank

Okay. Just tell me when there's a change, or post on active characters, and I'll update it

*Updated* Military Branch
Civilian---Tenebris, send me some short ideas to add/use as summary points

And Oreo is still a Royal Guard right? Just wanting to make sure ^-^

Aye, I'll crack on and write something up, haha

If you've made a tracker rank, what training do you have to go through to become a spy/scout or possibly black ops? My Nightwing Valdys can change the colour of her green coloured body parts to either black or black with white speckles so as to avoid detection, and is very speedy and agile, so I'd think she'd be good as a spy and if it's possible black ops. I'm not new to the RP business, I've been doing it for over a year or so now so I can take the role of a spy upon myself, I'd just like to know what training to undertake.

Well, I think I am going to faze out Blackop rank and replace it with the NW specialty class Assassin. If you want to spy, I am thinking of a topic for training, and it will probably be a game of guardian ranks vs tracker ranks. Just join that and perform, or you can receive assignments as a spy if ye wish

Ok, sure. I'd be happy with either, as I'm not usually busy so assignments would be fine and so would the vs thing.

Loque is still up to become a spy by the way.

*Updated*
-Military ranks tree
-Removed Black op as they are considered spies
-Added Assassin class

So where's the thread going to be, if you've decided yet? I'd be happy to take up the role of either spy or assassin, depending on whether you need to be up to certain standards to reach assassin i.e you need to have at least 100 posts. I was just thinking that my dragon's ability would be perfect for anything requiring sneaking around and staying out of sight.

So ... I'm a combat medic now? Or do I have to do something to achieve that?

No, just a healer...gotta train for combat medic

How do I train? Where? xD
...and I'm Nerezza...really too lazy to switch...

Ever since Hunting Games tapered off into nothing I sorta left the site, having no opportunity (that I heard of anyway) to continue Val's training, so is there any other training going ahead for role of assassin or other sub-ranks that could lead to it yet?

Aye, the "inquisition" serves as the Nightwings secret police, assassins and all that. Nerokius heads it, I'll have a word with him to create a topic with you to have you trained and inducted into the organisation.

Great, thanks!

Is this there any new thread pertaining to military training? I haven’t received any notifications about it or on this topic lol.

No, as far as I know, this is it. But I don't know what Tenebris is doing for the NightWing's military.
