Captain

A Captain commands a Ship in the Imperial Navy of The Brilliant Empire.

Qualifications

A Captain will have served as a Decanus for at least a few years, and almost always will have served as another Captain's Optinus or Tertanus. They must be skilled and good leaders of people.

Appointment

Centurians are appointed by a Fleet Marshall or by the Imperial Commander of Navies.

Duties

The Captain is responsible for making sure their Ship is functioning at its best and to command them in all functions.

Accoutrements & Equipment

Generally, Captains wear the same uniform as their soldiers. On their dress uniform, the Captain patch has five black stars and five gold stars. This motif is repeated across the training fatigues and other gear - the five black and five gold stars in a circle when possible; different variations of five black and five gold stripes where it isn't.

Grounds for Removal/Dismissal

A Captain can leave their position when they retire, are promoted, or are removed for bad conduct or failure to perform. Only the Imperial Commander of each branch can remove Captains, though Fleet Marshalls can recommend it.
