The Pale Legion being commanded by a vanir they are also pursuers of the dark magic and science taking in the swarm and wydownin after the Black Garden War to gain more numbers as well as study them for further progression.
Structure
Absolute leadership rests in the hands of Saveara Olgrim who delegates certain jobs to certain undead. Sevarog acts as her second in command being able to command the others at Saveara's will. The Pale Legion has other high ranking divisions like the coven groups of arc mages that cast high mages and perform experiments. Pale Lords are elite warriors that perform various jobs for the Pale Legion.
- Carrion: Carrion is the highest rank of the Pale Legion aside from absolute leadership. The Carrion is the war priest and the right hand of the Pale Witch. Being the war priest is something attained through strength and victory among the pale legion. The first Carrion was Aldrich before he was demoted to Lord, the second was Sevarog now the spot is vacant.
- Pale Lord: The Pale Lords are elite warriors tasked with typical mercenary work retrieval of items, defending an area, assassinating someone, or extermination of an entire area. There are only ever 5 Pale Lords in the Pale Legion when one dies another lower member of the Legion is allowed to ascend to take their place. The Pale Lords are the strongest members of the Pale Legion all being put under some form of extra undead transmutation and augmentations and have the ability to use spirit, something only mortals or other things with souls can do through another experiment. Each Pale Lord is aided by three subordinates called Barons who aid them in their work.
- Pale Baron: A rank below the Pale Lords given to powerful pale legion warriors next up to become lords if one were to perish. Pale Barons do jobs that aren't worthy of lords simply to gain enough renown to become chosen as the next lord.
- Pale Knight: A rank below the Pale Barons growing sentient undead soldiers training to become higher in the power structure.
- Pale Specter: A high rank of mages in the Pale Legion typically part of the High Coven, a collection of up to 12 arc mages that conduct high magic. High Mages are given a slot of freedom regarding the magic they can practice although these mages specifically use arcane magic typically made of swarm mages that cast away their larva.
- Pale Spirit: A rank given to mages of the Pale Legion typically swarm mages that cast away their parasite opting to practice arcane magic hoping to become Pale Specters.
- Pale Scream: A high rank of mages of the Pale Legion that make up the death coven mages that kept their larva and use swarm sorcery for the coven.
- Pale Echo: A rank of mages typically made of swarm mages that kept their larva and work to ascend to the rank of scream.
- Pale Phantoms: Pale Phantoms are Couriers & salesmen used to get jobs secretly from dead drops around settlements and gauging whether or not they can actually accept the job. They will also sell alchemical substances in those same dead drops and settlements. They will contact the one who issued the job and discuss terms of the job if the original terms seem to not meet their standards, they also catalog every single job the Pale Legion has done.
- Pale Ghosts: Alchemist, scholars, & researchers that follow in the footsteps of the Cromwell family making various alchemical substances for jobs and sale, using their knowledge for further support for the Pale Legion and their experiments making new weapons and alterations.
Culture
The culture of the Pale Legion is one of love and devotion to each other and their "mother" Saveara who gave them new life or defended their new lives as the theocratic light of Zodia hunted them. The undead lionize their mother and work to appease her out of love as she is one of the few necromancers who treats them with compassion giving them purpose and a place to belong under her. Through this feeling of admiration and loving towards the Pale Witch many of these undead use their time in service of her whether it's being a warrior, alchemist, or scholar.
Public Agenda
The Pale Legion seeks to aid and enrich the world through undead using undead as a means of aiding others and providing a safe haven for undead so they don't become an issue.
