One Rank. Two Paths.
Your Ash Rank (A) is universal and fluid—it shifts with your activity, but your role remains until leadership changes it. A-ranks still gate specific roles and appointments. Whether you haul cargo or command a fleet, your baseline standing follows you. Operatives may participate in both Industry and Military tracks simultaneously, leveraging their rank to serve the collective on all fronts.
