Preface
Ranks are a great way to earn GP. Each rank structure provides a different career your character can embark on - you can also do more than one. As you gain rank you gain more money per week, and in some cases you get other bonus perks as well. For example, if you reach the pinnacle of the nobility rank you get a free territory that you get to reside over as its King. Ranks are a fun way to add depth to your character and earn great bonuses at the same time.
Adding/Editing
When adding a class a special template has been designed to generate a page with consistent headings. {{subst:Rank}} is all that is required for a page to be generated. After the page has been saved it can be edited normally.

Rules
To advance in a rank you must roleplay a sufficient amount towards achieving the next rank. For example if you're an army private you'll have to perhaps go run errands for an officer, or if in a time of war show your valour and leadership abilities on the battlefield. The exact details of these posts are left very open for you to play with, and we encourage members to get creative, but a staff or admin must ultimately approve you to take on the next rank. They will look over what you have written and decide on whether they think its sufficient or not to move up. Ranks take a long time to level up, so please be patient and have fun.
Also at certain special ranks you may get special rewards or powers. The specifics vary with each rank structure and are specified in them. For example, goldsmiths get to own their own shop to sell items from, animal masters can have exotic animal pets or train wild beasts, military officers can gain their own personal units to command around, airship captains get command over an airship, airship engineers can design and modify their own airships, and the list goes on. Also, if there is something specific you want that fits in line with a rank structure but isn't specified as a reward feel free to ask for it! We reserve the right to deny requests so please understand that and be respectful of it. If you wish to plan a storyline around achieving that particular object you can request it from the get go and have it pre-approved for when you achieve the rank you need.
Lastly, Each PC and their level will be taken into consideration as those with higher fighting abilities might be allowed to skip the lower ranks if it is staff approved.
