	The navy, much like the ground forces of the Hegemony, is broken up into two distinct personnel categories. The officer corps, composed of mainly nobility and some K’lax Warriors; and the enlisted, which is an odd collection of Unathi Peasantry, K’laxan Vaurcae, and even some lesser nobility who were unable to become officers immediately. They use the same ranking system as the Hegemonic ground forces, with key differences in the officer ranks - based instead on human interstellar navies, with officers given far more power over their assigned ships. The biggest difference of naval officers though is their position as a standing force of the Hegemon. Instead of being loyal to vassals or other Lords of the Hegemony, naval officers swear fealty directly to Not’zar, making the navy his and his alone, granting the Izweski total control of the star lanes. This is not the case for enlisted crew, who instead swear fealty to the officers(lords) of their ships, swearing new oaths every time they are transferred from one ship to another, or a ship command is changed. It is this that allows Hegemonic naval officers to take the title of Lord-Rank, instead of a simple rank, such as Lord-Admiral Trazial Yizarus, the most famous Unathi naval commander.

	However, having enlisted crew swear allegiance to their officers instead of the Hegemon directly has been met with criticism by some, most notably Mirazuz Izweski himself, and not without reason. When Hegemon S’kresti fell into a coma in 2458, a succession crisis erupted within the Hegemony between Not’zar, Skresti’s eldest son, and Lord S’linzar Ickza, S’kresti’s son-in-law, over who should be given the title of Lord Regent. Half the fleet officers defected from the Izweski Clan under the command of Lord-Admiral Azikyui Yizarus, Trazial’s younger brother - and the enlisted men, bound by oaths to their officers, went along with them. While the crisis was averted, and Not’zar eventually placed as Lord-Regent of the Hegemony, it illustrated the potential issue of disloyal officers, particularly those who were from the original pirate fleet assembled by S’kresti. Not’zar would respond to this by initiating a fleet-wide purge of officers under the direction of Lord-Admiral Trazial Yizarus - who had sided with the Lord-Regent during the crisis - in order to turn the naval officer corps into not only a professional force, but one that was loyal to the Izweski alone. This purge laid the foundation of the modern officer corps known today, with sweeping reforms that for the first time opened education centers similar to officer-candidate-schools, where potential officers would be taught the fine points of space warfare, while also heavily indoctrinated with engrained senses of loyalty to the Izweski. Yizarus would use his powers as director of the purge to install many of his clan within the reformed officer corps, resulting in clan Yizarus making up a vast majority of the navy's higher ranking members. With the arrival of the K’lax, Not’zar saw an opportunity to expand these schools as well as the navy itself, and began inducting K’lax as not only instructors, but officers for his new fleet. Today, the officer corps of the Hegemonic navy is composed of military professionals, who despite using outdated tactics, are loyal and eager to serve their Hegemon and his clan, but who will also never forget the betrayal of half the fleet during the succession crisis.

	The Kataphracts, meanwhile, have a similar opinion of the Navy - believing that, though they provide a necessary service, they are not true warriors, only experiencing combat from across the vastness of space - and that their insistence on looking down on those who serve the Hegemon elsewhere dishonors them. Though the two groups have often cooperated in military actions, there is a general spirit of competition and one-upping between Kataphracts and Naval forces when this does occur - with the Kataphract-Hopefuls tending to become far more invested in the rivalry than their superiors.
