[*]
Domain: The Champions hold moderate position on the planets of the Sith Empire, save for those sanctioned only for the Sith themselves, much to the chagrin and suspicion of Imperial Citizens and Military. This is likely due to their connection to Lorale Farmar, a Sith who has risen through the ranks of the Empire with frightening speed. However, most of their domain and power lies on the planets owned by Lorale, Kascalion Giedfield, and all related parties. Upon these planets, they are treated with respect and fear and are often looked to for protection and inspiration.

Notable Assets: [ Does your organization have any special locations? Large industrial facilities, profitable casinos, boltholes, etc. Link any location subs for your organization here. ]
SOCIAL INFORMATION
- Hierarchy:
The Blade Master: The official leader of the Champions stands as not only its greatest warrior but also its greatest tactical mind. The Blade Master holds complete control over the Hammer’s military might and political dealings, standing at an influential power only under the Sith and comparable to Supreme General.
The Speech Paragon: The Paragon acts as the second-in-command for the Band and is often seen as the best diplomat and spokesperson. The Paragon is one of the only ranks in the Band that sees very little combat as they are often utilized to size up targets and potential allies/enemies through meetings and discussions.
Overlords
Overlord of the Fleet: The commander of the three fleets that are housed within the Band, the Overlord of the Fleets hold utter control over the path and targets of the star ships. From expeditions to orbital invasions to space combat, the Overlord commands the armada with utmost respect and determination. Their word is only capable of being overridden by the Paragon and the Master.
Overlord of the Corps: The commander of the infantry that march through the stars, leading the men and women of the band with an iron fist and brutal reputation. Knowing and accepting nothing but perfection, the Overlord of the Corps is more than willing to cut away loose ends should they not meet their expectations.
Overlord of the Titans
Overlord of the Shadows
[*]
The Firebirds/The Darkwolves: The best of the best, the Firebirds and Darkwolves handle the absolute worst thrown at the Empire, employing unique tactics with extreme prejudice. The Firebirds act as the Sith Lord’s best frontline and commanding Legionnaires and can often be seen leading the infantry, fleet, and armor brigades of the Noxians, Dotouki, Helgardi, and Aegirdi. The Darkwolves, meanwhile, will handle the Spec-Ops of the Champions, leading numerous small insurgent units of all four militaries to destroy the enemy from within and will hold no qualms against utilizing abhorrent tactics to do so if it means victory.
[*]
The Warfleet
[*]
Noxian Military: The vast collection of the Noxian Infantry, Special Forces, Navy, and Armor Brigades, serving as the largest military force within the Champions, with the Dotouki and Helgardi being close seconds.

Membership: The Band of Champions began as a small, nameless collection of important allies that Darth Raptious had collected over their long career in the Sith Empire. At the time of its inception, it stood at a measly dozen or so Imperial Officers and Legionnaires. Now, at the time of its unleashing, it stands unbelievably larger, comprised of the massive Warfleet and six armies Darth Raptious has created in conjunction with their rise in the Empire.
To fill the innumerable manpower for these groups, Darth Raptious and Kascalion Giedfield have sent out numerous operatives to scour a series of controlled planets and star systems for the best and brightest of the assigned species. From newborn infants to pre-adolescent children even to young adults, the Firebirds seek only the greatest to serve the Phoenix and, by proxy, the Sith Empire and Koignalteth.
Each of these new recruits are rigorously trained through unique boot camps created by Kascalion Giedfield and his team of Noxian, Dotouki, Aegirdi, and Firebird trainers, and are forced into a number of life threatening and psychologically taxing sessions that bring out their inner beast and warrior. These sessions range from monster hunts, faux and real assassinations, monitored and unmonitored deployments into dangerous territory, duels, deadly obstacle courses, and practice missions upon ships and within bases. For almost every five recruits, one will die or suffer critical injuries that prevents them from serving.
After the candidates pass the boot camps, they are then sent to their specific schools depending on what they excelled at the most: General Combat, Tech Development, Special Operations, and Vehicular Control.
Helgardi chosen for the Band are sometimes subjected to the alterations that turn them into Phoenixbred or Lion's Guard, but are often equipped with their standard arms and armor to be used as the frontline masters of the frontline masters.
Dotouki are likewise profiled into roles suited for science and technological advancements on the move, often repairing and modifying weaponry and vehicles.
Aegirdi are almost exclusively used in special operations as assassins and strike forces, carving the enemy forces from the inside out to lower morale and cause panic.
The Noxians are placed into the role they best serve, from the fleets to the infantry to special operations to the armored lines, and serve their leaders with the utmost urgency and dutifulness; they are generally considered the main fighting force of the Band.
The Firebirds are used as the elite of the Band, tasked with some of the most dangerous objectives and given the most advanced armor and weapons next to the Noxians who themselves have greatly crafted arms and armor.
