THE UNITED FEDERATION of LIGHT

COMPOSED OF TWELVE ENLIGHTENED SPIRITUAL LEADERS. CONSISTING OF THE WORLDS TOP 12 RELIGIONS. (CHRISTIANITY, ISLAM, HINDUISM, CATHOLICISM, JUDAISM, TAOISM, AGNOSTICISM, BUDDHISM, ANGLICANISM, SIKHISM, CONFUCIANISM & SHINTO) THIS COUNCIL WORKS TOGETHER IN A SPIRITUAL AND LEADERSHIP MANNER. MAINTAINING WORLD PEACE. WITHIN THIS COUNCIL THE WORLDS RELIGIONS UNITE. DOCUMENTING ANCIENT KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM, PULLED FROM THE TEACHINGS OF THE WORLDS RELIGIONS. WHILE SCIENTIFICALLY STUDYING THE METAPHYSICAL MYSTERIES OF LIFE ITSELF. BOTH SCIENCE & RELIGION. HEART & MIND.

THE COUNCIL OF 12

THOUGH BECOMING A FEDERAL MASTER IS AN ARDUOUS TASK THAT VERY FEW ACCOMPLISH, THERE ARE STILL THOSE WITHIN THE ORDER WHO OUTRANK EVEN THE MASTERS. THE HIGHEST RANKING MEMBERS WITHIN THE MASTERS OF THE ORDER. THESE TWELVE PRESTIGIOUS POSITIONS ARE ONLY OBTAINED BY THOSE WHO HAVE CLIMBED THE RANKS WITHIN THE FEDERAL HIGH COUNCIL AND DEMONSTRATED INCREDIBLE SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE WAYS OF THE FORCE. THOUGH THE COUNCIL OF 12 IS A PRESTIGIOUS POSITION, THEY ARE STILL OUTRANKED BY ONE FINAL POSITION: THE GRAND MASTER. THE GRAND MASTER IS THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS RANK IN THE FEDERATIONS HIERARCHY, AWARDED TO THE WISEST AND MOST SKILLED OF THE TWELVE MASTERS. THE COUNCIL OF 12 MUST UNANIMOUSLY VOTE TO BESTOW THE TITLE ONTO THEM. THE PATH ELABORATES ON THE ROLE OF GRAND MASTER, STATING THAT THEY OFTEN SERVE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE COUNCIL OF 12, TH MASTERS OF THE ORDER AND THE FIRST MINISTRY. ONE OF THE MOST CRITICAL ROLES HELD BY THE GRAND MASTER IS TO PASS ON THEIR KNOWLEDGE TO THE NEXT GENERATION OF MEMBERS.

MASTERS OF THE ORDER

FEDERAL MASTERS WHO DISTINGUISH THEMSELVES CAN SIT ON ONE OF THE 5 GOVERNING BODIES OF THE ORDER, PLACING THEM ABOVE THE REST. THE 5 COUNCILS ARE KNOWN AS THE COUNCIL OF FIRST KNOWLEDGE, THE COUNCIL OF RECONCILIATION, THE COUNCIL OF REASSIGNMENT, THE FEDERAL HIGH COUNCIL AND THE COUNCIL OF 12. ACCORDING TO THE PATH, THE COUNCIL OF FIRST KNOWLEDGE OVERSEES THE EDUCATION OF YOUNGER MEMBERS AND THE DISSEMINATION OF MATERIALS FROM THE ARCHIVES OF THE LIVING LIBRARY. THIS COUNCIL IS USUALLY COMPRISED OF CONSULARS WHO BECAME LORE-KEEPERS. THE COUNCIL OF RECONCILIATION, MEANWHILE, DEALS IN POLITICS AND DIPLOMACY. THIS COUNCIL IS ALSO REGULARLY FILLED WITH CONSULARS, AS WELL AS FEDERAL DIPLOMATS AND AMBASSADORS. THE THIRD COUNCIL IS THE COUNCIL OF REASSIGNMENT, WHICH GOVERNS THE FEDERAL SERVICES CORPS, DICTATING WHICH BODY EACH INITIATE WILL BE FUNNELED INTO AFTER THEY FAIL TO ADVANCE ON THE PATH TO KNIGHTHOOD. THESE ARE ALL GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL HIGH COUNCIL. THE HIGH COUNCIL IS MADE UP OF FIVE LIFETIME APPOINTEES, FOUR LONG-TERM APPOINTEES, AND THREE SHORT-TERM APPOINTEES, MAKING FOR A TOTAL OF 12 COUNCIL MEMBERS. THE HIGH COUNCIL OVERSEES EVERYTHING WITHIN THE ORDER AND IS CRUCIAL TO ITS STABILITY AND SUCCESS. FINALLY THE COUNCIL OF 12, WHICH IS THE GOVERNING WING OF THE ORDER.

THE FIRST MINISTRY

IF A MEMBER OF THE FEDERATION HAS SHOWN EXEMPLARY SKILL, DEMONSTRATED DEEP KNOWLEDGE OF THE FORCE, AND SUCCESSFULLY TRAINED AN INITIATE TO BECOME A FEDERAL KNIGHT, THEY MAY BE GRANTED THE TITLE OF FEDERAL MASTER. JUST AS THE TITLE OF KNIGHT CAN BE GIVEN TO HONOR THE ACTIONS OF AN INDIVIDUAL, SO TOO CAN THE RANK OF MASTER, IF THE COUNCIL OF 12 UNANIMOUSLY AGREES. ACCORDING TO THE PATH, A MASTER'S ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO BE A POSITIVE FORCE IN THE WORLD AND TO EXPAND THE INFLUENCE OF THE FEDERAL ORDER. WHAT SEPARATES A MASTER FROM A KNIGHT IS THAT THEIR EXCEPTIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS AND EXPERIENCE MAKE THEM UNIQUELY QUALIFIED TO TEACH THE YOUNGER MEMBERS OF THE ORDER. IN ADDITION TO TEACHING, THEY ARE ALSO NATURALLY FIT TO LEAD THE ORDER, NOT JUST BY EXAMPLE, BUT BY SITTING ON ONE OF THE 5 FEDERAL COUNCILS THAT GOVERN THE ORDER.

FEDERAL SENTINEL

LIKE THE FEDERAL GUARDIANS. THE FEDERAL SENTINELS TOO GRADUATE FROM THE UNITED NATIONS ACADEMY OF MILITARY SCIENCES. THE SENTINELS ARE THE WILD CARDS OF THE ORDER. WHILE GUARDIANS AND CONSULARS FOCUS ON TYPICAL MEMBER ACTIVITIES, SENTINELS PURSUE TRAINING IN DISCIPLINES THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO NON-FORCE SENSITIVE BEINGS. IN DOING SO, THEY ADD MODERN INSIGHT AND SKILLS TO THEIR ANCIENT TEACHINGS, MAKING THEM BENEFICIAL MEMBERS OF THE FEDERAL ORDER. ACCORDING TO THE PATH, SOME OF THE COMMON PURSUITS FOR FEDERAL SENTINELS INCLUDE SPECIALIZING IN COMPUTER SYSTEMS, MANIPULATION OF TECHNOLOGY, AND HACKING INTO AND DISABLING SECURITY MECHANISMS. BECAUSE OF THE UNIQUENESS OF A SENTINEL'S SKILL SET, THEY ARE OFTEN THE DEFAULT CHOICE FOR MISSIONS THAT DO NOT SEEM PARTICULARLY SUITED FOR EITHER GUARDIANS OR CONSULARS. FOR EXAMPLE, SENTINELS DO EXCEEDINGLY WELL ON MISSIONS THAT REQUIRE STEALTH AND INFILTRATION. ONE PARTICULAR GROUP OF SENTINELS KNOWN AS THE SHADOWS SERVE AS THE ORDER'S ASSASSINS AND EXCEL AT SNEAKY, LESS COMBAT-ORIENTED TASKS. ASIDE FROM ESPIONAGE, WHAT SETS FEDERAL SENTINELS APART FROM OTHER FEDERAL KNIGHT CLASSES IS THAT THEY OFTEN REMAIN IN ONE AREA FOR MUCH LONGER THAN THEIR COUNTERPARTS. SENTINELS WERE APPOINTED AS FEDERAL WATCHMEN, TASKED WITH MAINTAINING THE PROSPERITY OF A PARTICULAR REGION OF THE GLOBE.

FEDERAL GUARDIAN

FEDERAL GUARDIANS HAVE SUCCESFULLY GRADUATED FROM THE UNITED NATIONS ACADEMY OF MILITARY SCIENCES. SPECIALIZED TASK FORCES OF FEDERAL KNIGHTS KNOWN AS GUARDIANS ACTED AS THE FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE FOR THE UNITED NATIONS. AS EXPLAINED BY THE PATH, GUARDIANS ARE DIVIDED INTO THREE MAIN SUBCLASSES: PEACEKEEPERS, FREEDOM FIGHTERS AND U.N. CAPITAL SECURITY. PEACEKEEPERS ACT AS GLOBAL POLICE, TRAINED IN CROWD CONTROL AND DEESCALATION OF THREATS. MEMBERS ASSIGNED TO CAPITAL SECURITY PROTECT THE ONE TEMPLE, THE LIVING LIBRARY, ONE WORLD BANK, ONE WORLD TRADE CENTER, ETC. AND ITS LEADERSHIP. AS THEIR NAME IMPLIES, FREEDOM FIGHTERS SERVE AS THE PATHFINDERS OF THE ORDER. ANOTHER TITLE GIVEN TO PARTICULARLY GIFTED GUARDIANS IS THAT OF FEDERAL BATTLE MASTER, AN INDIVIDUAL TASKED WITH TEACHING MILITARY TACTICS, FORM AND TECHNIQUES, OR CADENCES, TO MEMBERS IN TRAINING. A BATTLE MASTER MAY RECRUIT SEVERAL FEDERAL MASTERS WHO ARE APPROVED BY THE HIGH COUNCIL OF 12 TO BE ADDITIONAL WAR TIME INSTRUCTORS. THROUGH INTENSE TRAINING, SOME GUARDIANS COME TO SPECIALIZE IN INFORMATION, SURVEILLANCE AND RECONNAISSANCE. THESE MEMBERS ARE AWARDED THE TITLE OF EXOTIC WARFARE SPECIALIST.

FEDERAL CONSULAR

WHEN PEOPLE THINK OF THE ORDER, TWO THINGS USUALLY COME TO MIND: SCIENCE & SPIRITUALITY. IN MANY CASES, THOSE WHO SPECIALIZE IN THE MANIPULATION OF THE FORCE PURSUE THE TITLE OF FEDERAL CONSULAR. MOST OF THESE MEMBERS ARE FOCUSED ON USING THEIR CONNECTION TO SOURCE TO RESOLVE CONFLICTS IN A PEACEFUL WAY. ACCORDING TO THE PATH, THE MOST ESTEEMED CONSULAR MASTERS SERVE ON THE RECONCILIATION COUNCIL, A SELECT GROUP WHO WORK DIRECTLY WITH THE COUNCILS OF THE UNITED NATIONS TO ENGAGE IN DIPLOMACY AND INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS. THE FEDERAL CONSULARS WHO ARE THE MOST SKILLED REACH THE RANK OF SAGE MASTER. THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT WAYS FOR CONSULARS TO USE THEIR TALENTS WITHIN THE ORDER. FIRST AMONG THESE ARE FEDERAL SEERS, WHOSE DEEP MEDITATION ALLOWS THEM TO CONNECT TO SOURCE AND RECEIVE VISIONS OF THE PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE. OTHER CONSULARS BECOME FEDERAL HEALERS, WHO USE THEIR CONNECTION TO SOURCE TO MEND BROKEN BODIES. OTHERS WORK AS FEDERAL AMBASSADORS AND FEDERAL DIPLOMATS, SERVING AS REPRESENTATIVES IN VARIOUS UNITED NATIONS BODIES AND ACTIVIST MOVEMENTS RESPECTIVELY. OTHER CONSULARS MIGHT BECOME FEDERAL LORE-KEEPERS, DEDICATED TO MAINTAINING, CURATING, AND ADDING TO THE ARCHIVES OF THE LIVING LIBRARY.

FEDERAL KNIGHT

IF AN INITIATE MANAGES TO PASS ALL OF THEIR TRIALS, THEY BECOME A FEDERAL KNIGHT, REGARDED AS A FULLY-FLEDGED MEMBER WITHIN THE ORDER. AS A FEDERAL KNIGHT, AN INDIVIDUAL IS EXPECTED TO UPHOLD THE PEACE OF THE WORLD AND THE IDEALS OF THE CODE. ACCORDING TO THE ORDER, THE MOST COMMON WAY TO BECOME A FEDERAL KNIGHT IS BY PASSING TRIALS AS AN INITIATE, BUT AN INDIVIDUAL CAN ALSO BE GRANTED THE TITLE BY PERFORMING A HEROIC DEEDS. AT THIS POINT IN THE ORDERS HIERARCHY, FEDERAL KNIGHTS STILL HAVE MUCH TO LEARN ABOUT THE FORCE, BUT THEY NO LONGER CARRY OUT THEIR DUTIES UNDER THE DIRECT SUPERVISION OF A MASTER. FROM HERE, MOST KNIGHTS CARRY OUT THEIR MISSIONS ALONE, TESTING THEIR SELF-DISCIPLINE AND UPHOLDING THE PRINCIPLES OF THE FEDERAL CODE ON THEIR OWN. UNLIKE PREVIOUS RANKS, FEDERAL KNIGHTS ARE SPLIT INTO VARIOUS CLASSES BASED ON WHAT SKILLS EACH HAS AN APTITUDE FOR. FOR EXAMPLE, THERE ARE COUNSELLORS, SENTINELS, AND GUARDIANS, EACH WITH SPECIFIC SUBCLASSES AND SPECIALIZATIONS.

FEDERAL FIELD SERVICES CORP

UNFORTUNATELY, NOT EVERY INITIATE CAN SUCCESSFULLY PASS THEIR TRIALS, AND SOME NEVER GRADUATE TO THE RANK OF FEDERAL KNIGHT. THESE UNSUCCESSFUL INITIATES CAN BECOME MEMBERS OF THE FIELD SERVICE CORPS. AS THE MEMBERS AND LEADERS OF PEACEKEEPING OPERATIONS. THEY AREN'T THE ONLY ONES WHO PARTICIPATE, THOUGH — MEMBERS OF ALL RANKS VOLUNTEER TO HELP THE SERVICE CORPS IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. ONES PATH EXPLAINS THAT THE FEDERAL SERVICE CORPS IS SEPARATED INTO FOUR ARMS: AGRICULTURAL, MEDICAL, EDUCATIONAL, AND EXPLORATION. THE AGRICULTURAL CORPS IS THE LARGEST BRANCH. THESE FOLKS USE THE FORCE TO HELP ENSURE THAT THE EARTH HAS ENOUGH FOOD TO GO AROUND. THE MEDICAL CORPS IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE MOST MEDICALLY ADVANCED ORGANIZATIONS IN THE WORLD, AND THUS IT RECEIVES SOME OF THE MORE URGENT MEDICAL CASES UPON EARTH. THE EDUCATIONAL CORPS WORK WITH THE FEDERAL ARCHIVES OF THE LIVING LIBRARY, TRANSLATING AND UPDATING RECORDS. FINALLY (AND ARGUABLY THE MOST EXCITING BRANCH) IS THE EXPLORATION CORPS, WHICH SENDS ITS MEMBERS TO THE FAR-FLUNG CORNERS OF KNOWN — AND SOMETIMES YET-TO-BE-KNOWN — REGIONS OF EARTH. THEIR GOAL IS TO MAKE NEW DISCOVERIES THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, WHETHER THAT BE THE PLANETS, SCRIPTURE, OR ANCIENT ARTIFACTS.

FEDERAL INITIATE

AFTER A SEED HAS SUCCESSFULLY PASSED THE INITIATE TRIALS, THEY GRADUATE TO THE RANK OF INITIATE. UNLIKE THE GROUP TRAINING FOR SEEDS, INITIATES RECEIVE ONE-ON-ONE COACHING WITH THEIR MENTOR, TYPICALLY SOMEONE WITH THE STATUS OF FEDERAL KNIGHT OR FEDERAL MASTER. HISTORICALLY, MEMBERS WOULD CHOOSE WHO THEY WANTED TO MENTOR. THE JUMP FROM STRUCTURED LESSONS TO REAL LIFE MISSIONS IS A SIGNIFICANT HURDLE FOR MOST INITIATES TO SUCCESSFULLY CLEAR. THOUGH THEY ARE STILL LEARNING, INITIATES ARE EXPECTED TO COMPLETE ASSIGNMENTS ALONGSIDE THEIR MASTERS. SIMILAR TO SEEDS, INITIATES MUST ALSO PASS A SERIES OF TRIALS TO MOVE UP IN RANK. ACCORDING TO THE PATH OF LIGHT, THESE TESTS INCLUDE THE TRIAL OF SKILL, THE TRIAL OF COURAGE, THE TRIAL OF FLESH, THE TRIAL OF SPIRIT, AND THE TRIAL OF INSIGHT. THE TRIALS TEST A INITIATES MENTAL AND PHYSICAL ABILITIES AND DETERMINE IF THEY ARE READY TO BECOME A FULLY REALIZED MEMBER.

SEED OR SEEDLING

FEDERATION SEEDS, ALSO KNOWN AS INITIATES, ARE THE LOWEST RANK IN THE FEDERATIONS HIERARCHY. SEEDS ARE CHILDREN WHO WERE GATHERED FROM ALL REACHES OF HUMANITIES BACKGROUNDS, FROM ACROSS THE GLOBE. FROM AS YOUNG AS AN INFANT. TO BE TRAINED AS FUTURE MASTERS. WHEN LOOKING FOR POTENTIAL SEEDS TO RECRUIT, THE FEDERATION AND ITS ORDER OF THE LIGHT SPECIFICALLY LOOKS FOR INFANTS THAT SHOW A SENSITIVITY TO THE FORCE, INDICATING THAT THEY MAY HAVE AN APTITUDE FOR JOINING THE FEDERATIONS RANKS. THE ORDERS PATH: A MANUAL FOR STUDENTS OF THE FORCE EXPLAINS THAT AT ONE TIME, YOUNG ADULTS AND ADOLESCENTS WERE RECRUITED AS FEDERATION SEEDS, BUT THE ORDER FOUND THAT THESE OLDER RECRUITS WERE ALREADY EXPOSED TO FEAR AND OTHER NEGATIVE EMOTIONS THAT COULD PUSH THEM TO THE DARK SIDE. AS A RESULT, FEDERATION MASTERS OPTED TO RECRUIT INFANTS WHO WERE STILL INNOCENT AND UNAWARE OF THE DARKNESS LOOMING WITHIN THE EARTHLY REALM. SEEDS DON'T TRAIN WITH A MENTOR ONE-ON-ONE. INSTEAD, THEY ARE SEPARATED INTO SMALL GROUPS CALLED CLANS AND TRAIN TOGETHER WITHIN THOSE CLANS. ONCE SEEDS HAVE LEARNED THEIR BASICS, THEY MUST TAKE A SERIES OF TESTS KNOWN AS THE INITIATE TRIALS IN ORDER TO PROGRESS TO THE NEXT RANK. THOUGH THE INITIATE TRIALS HAVE CHANGED OVER TIME, THEIR ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO TEST A SEED PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY TO DETERMINE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF THE CODE AND ABILITY TO CONQUER THE DARK SIDE.
