	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.

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.

			<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:99%; overflow:auto;">
			Ranks of the Izweski Navy
			<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
			'''Naval Auxiliary''' (Sinta’unathi: Zurekeha): As the navy is a fully professional army, there are no such things as levies. Thus, despite similar names, Naval Auxiliaries do not work exactly like their planetary counterparts. Naval Auxiliaries are, for all intent and purposes, a new recuit still learning about life on a ship. These can fill many roles so long as they are supervised by other crewmembers, when they are not taking care of chores across the ship. Auxiliary are paid a pittance, but thankfully rarely stay at this rank for long, as it generally takes just a month or two for them to reach the rank of Shipman.

			'''Shipman''' (Sinta’unathi: Zunha): The backbone of the Izweski Navy, the Shipmen can tend to anything across a ship, from security to cooking, from logistics to gunnery, boarding and EVA combat to engineering. Shipmens are never seen operating on their own, unless something went truly wrong, and are instead under the constant of authority of another superior, no matter their situation or role.

			'''Naval Specialist''' (Sinta’unathi: Zuozas): Much like with their planteray counterparts, this is an in-between rank, applied to shipmen with skills outside of combat that are of use on the battlefield. This rank is frequently used for medics, engineers, technicians, chaplains and any others, an odd mixture of any and all specialists within a lord’s military force. Though the Navy happens to have a little more women in its ranks than in the plantary force, the rank of specialist is still the place where they are more often seen.

			'''Flagbearer''' (Sinta’unathi: Zuruki): As the name suggests, the Flagbearers work much like their planteray counterparts as well. They are tasked with leading entire teams as well as taking responsabilities for them, and these teams might fill any role, they could be compared to the department command members of the Horizon in that sense. Flagbearers can also rarely be seen commanding ships, generally small shuttle-sized crafts to lead a fireteam, for instance.

			'''Shipmaster''' (Sinta’unathi: Karzuo): The lowest ranks for officers, the Shipmasters, as the name implies, get to command their own ships. Said ships, however, are generally smaller or otherwise less important crafts: Foundation-class Corvettes, ships relagated to lone patrol missions, support and logistics crafts, and so on.

			'''Squadronmaster''' (Sinta’unathi: Uzwezuo): Squadronmasters get to command their own ships as well, though these are very often much more important. Brawlers, Bulwarks, and the occasional support ship if its mission is truly important. As their name suggest, though, their authority extend beyond their own ships. The vessels Squadronmasters lead are rarely alone, and have their own small fleet, a squadron, around them, with strike and escort crafts that are all under their authority.

			'''Admiral''' (Sinta’unathi: Zura’saa): Traditionally called Fleetmasters in the old Moghesian Navy, the Admirals earned their new name as the first modern fleets of the Izweski Navy were formed to differentiate them from their planetary counterpart. The Admirals are tasked with leading an entire fleet, as well as the flag-ship they command from. In practice there are currentlyonly four Admirals, one for each fleet. Beyond being military leaders, Admirals also have some political sway, and are often called to provide advice to the Hegemon itself, [https://forums.aurorastation.org/topic/3956-sinta-articles/?do=findComment&comment=170235 for instance when Hegemon Not'zar Izweski gathered the Admirals to discuss about how implicated loyal pirates should be in their service].

	The '''Hegemony Model V ‘Sk’akh’s Spear’''' is the first energy weapon designed by the Izweski Navy - a heavy laser cannon, designed to tear through even the heaviest of armor. The size of these cannons leads to an enormous power strain on the vessel, meaning that only the larger ships of the Navy are capable of firing them for any amount of time. Their power drain can also cause wild fluctuations in a vessel’s shields, and while this has not proved a fatal flaw so far, it may prove troublesome for the Navy in future. Due to its design being based on the energy weapons often used by Izweski ground forces, the Model V’s beams have a distinctive golden glow to them - resembling some ancient depictions of the Aspect of the Warrior, and granting it its name.

	The '''Hegemony Model I ‘Bruiser’''' was the first spaceship-mounted weapon to be designed by Izweski engineers - a simple enough design for a heavy ballistic cannon. The Bruiser is also notable for the light weight of its ammunition, allowing an Unathi to carry a shell without need of mechanical assistance - minimizing the expensive equipment that a vessel might require to fight. The Model I Bruiser was inaccurate, slow to fire and prone to overheating, leading to the design of the commonly-used Hegemony Model II ‘Bruiser’, largely seen on the corvettes and destroyers of the Izweski Navy. The Model II is faster, more accurate and capable of firing at much higher velocities, enabling the smaller ships of the Navy to punch above their weight class in battle.

	'''Battle-leader'''(Sinta’unathi: Uezsla): Higher officers, these officers would generally be the commander of a number of Slhiri, overseeing the Slhiri and reporting to their own commander, the Seiirak. Unlike Slhiri they do not command any fighting units of their own, instead leading a specialized command squad which helps them run the affairs of their portion of the regiment. These officers to date have all been nobility. The number of Uezsla depends on the type and size of a regiment, but in general there will be 5 Uezsla per regiment, ~~4 incharge~~ of different portions of the fighting force, and the last ~~incharge~~ of any support elements which are attached to the fighting force.

	'''Master-at-arms'''(Sinta’unathi: Ozur’saa): These men directly lead the private retinue of a clan, and will serve as the highest authority for an individual landed noble’s forces. They are normally selected from amongst the Bannerman, and act as the professional military adviser of the Lord. Should the landed lord control a small amount of land, or otherwise not required to be politicking heavily, the Bannerman will also often be the Lord’s Claws, holding a seat on his council. However, for those Lords who rule over large sections of the Hegemony, or need to politick heavily, they will often choose a different Lord’s Claw, one more politically advantageous. In this case, the Ozur’saa remains the Lord’s professional military adviser, but cannot sit on council meetings and often has to accede to the thoughts of the Lord’s Claws, whatever he may think of them.

	The fleet was formerly commanded by '''Lord-Admiral Azikyui Yizarus''', Trazarial's brother. He was known to be hot-headed and opportunistic. He supported Ickza during the crisis. Fortunately the two siblings did not come to blows and Azikyui swore fealty to Not'Zar after the crisis. He got to retain command of his fleet for just long enough for Not'zar to force his quiet retirement. The 2nd Fleet has the Cataclysm-class '''HMV Catastrophe''' as its flagship, and 11 Bulwarks. It is currently assigned to guarding the colony world of [[Ouerea]].		The fleet was formerly commanded by '''Lord-Admiral Azikyui Yizarus''', Trazarial's brother.

	The '''3rd Fleet''' is commanded by '''Admiral Za'Akaix'Xitac ~~Klax~~''', a Vaurca from Tret. They lead the fleet from their flagship, the cataclysm-class '''HMV Annihilation'''. Xitac differs greatly from the other admirals. They are willing to work with people that traditionally would be ignored to establish information networks - they are known to be extraordinarily patient until they can be sure they have absolute initiative, at which point Xitac becomes a ruthless and unstoppable force. They use intuitive fleet maneuvers and strategies to always maintain a flexible battle plan and to always have an escape plan. This fleet is currently inactive, as it's ships have been shuffled around to bolster the 2nd and 1st fleets.

	The '''1st Fleet''' is commanded by '''Lord-Admiral Trazarial Yizarus''' who leads it from the flagship '''HMV Cataclysm'''. He is a decorated war hero and famous for his unshakeable adherence to the unathi code of honor.
