The Ghelian Guard operates in units of 4 [[Sentinel|Sentinels]] to one [[Junior Adept]] who report to [[Adept|Adepts]]. 2 ghelian guard units are stationed at important/strategic locations, such as gateways, to enable one [[Junior Adept]] to act as a messenger back to their [[Adept]]. The guard is a time + strict meritocracy (except for HIGH leadership) system (leaning towards merit). Except for the [[Black Cloaks]], where loyalty is prioritized just as much as skill, and both are needed in abundance to be accepted. Three branches at a certain point - **Skill** Specialized units, assassins, mages, healers **Leadership** [[Vizier]] [[General/Titles/Ghelian Guard/Chancellor]] **Loyalty** [[Black Cloaks]] [[Adept]] [[Junior Adept]] [[Sentinel]]
