Personal Orders
Rank
You hold an equivalent rank to a Captain in all normal enlisted army formations. You are qualified and authorized to lead up to a platoon sized unit of any composition desired to accomplish your mission as directed.
When dealing with Dark Lanterns, Breland's covert ops detachment, you are on equal rank with field operatives. In matters of dispute the agent with seniority is considered superior, although the agent is still mandated to use their best judgement in all scenarios.
When dealing with the King's Swords, the King's Shields, or the King's Wands you are considered on equal rank as a Sergeant, allowing you to command a section of the appropriate unit.
Although you have equivalent rank, and have the ability to commandeer other unit's manpower and equipment for your ends, you are ultimately not a member of their organization. They can not task you to undertake anything, your primary objective will be assigned by your superior and you are not obligated to deviate from that by any chain of command except your own.
Other law-abiding organizations, such as the Sentinel Marshalls or Sharn Watch, deserve your cooperation and courtesy; however, in Breland they hold no rank over you. When travelling abroad it is advised that you refrain from breaking the local laws, as Breland may have difficulties in resolving situations that may arise from wanton disregard to local sensibilities.
Immediate Superior: You report to Captain Meira, her immediate superior is the Colonel Yonik, above him is General Park and he only answers to the Royal Family of Breland.
Salary: You are paid as Captain, with Specialist 2 incentives. This equals to 40gp per day of service, and seeing as how this is a continuous deployment your monthly salary is 1120gp, paid on the 14th and 28th of each month. Payment can be received at any Brelish Army camp's pay office, or if arranged with a pay clerk, wired to a Kundarak bank account.
