Finding loopholes in the following rules will result in a warning, suspension, or demotion depending on the severity of the situation. This includes the encouragement of others to break the rules of the handbook rather than yourself.
At all times, the following must be strictly followed:
When representing TDF at any event, you are required to wear the according uniform unless otherwise stated.
Any regulations, rules, or instructions posted on the Discord server must be followed.
Higher ranking personnel are to be referred to as “Sir” or “Ma’am” depending on their preference.

Any disrespect or insubordination - respect of your high ranks should not at any point falter.
Any kind of exploits (aimbots, auto-clickers, general script attacks) are strictly prohibited.
Disrespecting or threatening fellow TDF units in any medium that involves our group. If disrespect outside of the TDF medium becomes severe enough, a harsh punishment will be enforced.
Leaving any TDF institutions to avert any kind of punishment will result in further punishment.
Any abuse of group admin privileges are strictly prohibited and will likely result in an indefinite rank-lock and is subject to exile.
The act of wearing TDF attire that is not meant for you (e.g. the Officer Armor or any divisional uniforms) will result in punishment.
Impersonation of any TDF official or division, whether it be a low rank or high rank, will result in punishment.
Our society is composed of three main political roles. That being stated, an elaboration upon each political rank and their duties can be found below:
The Emperor
The Emperor of The Duskan Front is the supreme authority in our ranks and holds full power to exercise his sovereignty upon his domains.
Any large military action or deployment must first be authorized by him, with the Directorate members as counsellors.
In addition, the emperor is able to dismiss, contract or promote an officer he deems fit, to any position within TDF, including its divisions and departments. This, however, is only a provisory measure in case of urgency, for the Emperor always acts with rationality and for the well-being of his citizens.
The Directorate
Appointed by the Emperor himself, the Directorate acts as the political and military senior leadership of TDF.
They are tasked with the appointment of Generals and division leaders; management of technologies, troops, housing, funds, security, et cetera.
Furthermore, the Directorate may act as the central political figure in absence of the Emperor.
Viceroy
Responsible for the government of a local sector, they are the Empire’s proxies on its vast domains.
May be selected by a general election or appointed by the Emperor himself.
Together the Viceroys compose the Senate Chamber and are able to pass new regulations, acts and laws, which will then be voted by the Directorate.
There are also a few mechanisms which may be used accordingly to the well-being of the Empire. Below are two of the most important ones:
Magistrate’s Will
Should the need arise, the Emperor and the Directorate have full authority to act upon their own wishes for the clan without consulting.
This includes formal nominations for political or military roles, declarations of war/peace, and use of other mechanisms such as the Martial Law.
Martial Law
Martial Law may be declared on the event of a dire situation which may threaten the sovereignty of the Empire, the Senate Chamber, the Directorate or the Emperor.
This will lead to the creation of a temporary Order Committee, formed by Generals and one Director (who holds veto power), which has absolute power within the Empire.
The Martial Law can only be revoked by order of the Committee or the Emperor.
The Duskan Front is composed of a complex militaristic rank structure in which powers are balanced equally throughout the group. That being stated, an elaboration upon each militaristic high rank and their duties can be found below:
General
Generals of The Duskan Front are the administrators and strategists of the military and are accomplished leaders.
They have shown their valor and military might through vigorous combat and leadership excellence.
Generals are sworn in by a vote through the recommendation of a Viceroy or Directorate member.
Colonel
Colonels are individuals who have excelled in combat, leadership, and education of lower ranks.
Colonels are often tasked with any duties that a General would wish to execute, and they are then obligated to perform their duties to the full extent of their power without any interception from the high political system.
They are handpicked by the Generals, and can only progress to the rank if they have been an existing Field Officer.
Field Officer
Field Officers, as the name entails, are officers that have experienced field combat multiple times and have shown their military prowess while deployed.
These units are tasked with teaching lower ranks how to perform in and out of the field, how to prepare for fighting on both foreign and domestic lands, and how to act in general.
These can be appointed by a consensus between a Colonel and a General that agree to take full responsibility for the actions that a Field Officer makes.
Lieutenant
Lieutenants, the second officer rank, are ensigns that have shown their dedication to the Front and its militants.
They are experienced in teaching soldiers, and are required to host trainings to further excel fellow soldier’s careers.
Ensign
Ensigns are the first officer rank of The Duskan Front.
Through their experience as a low and middle rank, they have mastered the ability to efficiently train soldiers and are officially authorized to do so.
Ensigns achieve their rank through the Officer Academy, which they have progressed through while they were a Staff Sergeant.
Currently The Duskan Front operates under a system of merit and expertise. This means your activity, maturity, skills, etc. are taken into consideration to hand out merit points for you.
Merit can be earnt at events, such as trainings, raids, rallies, etc. Once the required number of merit points are earnt, the soldier can progress to the next rank. (Note: This does not apply to the political hierarchy)
A member is able to view their accumulated merit points by navigating to the #bot-commands channel of the discord and typing “?merit”.
You can achieve superior ranks by collecting the certain amount of Merit. Below is a table showing how much you need for each promotion.

Officer Selection
However, the process for Staff Sergeants is more complicated. If they wish to pursue a career as commissioned officers, they must enroll at the Officer Academy. To do so they should request an instructor to allow them to join the school and attend classes weekly.
Officer Promotion
Every promotion they must be recommended by a higher officer who agrees to take responsibility for the former’s actions. The rank of General is only achievable through direct recommendation and vote of the Directorate.
The Empire consists of many departments, divisions and detachments - here are the most important ones.
The Administrative Board
The ADM is, jointly with the Domestic Affairs Department, in charge of administration decisions and human resources. Its activities include reporting and evaluating promotions, invitations, internal-affairs, corrections, et cetera.
Public Security Department
The PSEC is responsible for the safety of our citizens while inside our domains. Its sub-deparments are the Strategic Protection Detachment (SPD) and our Automated Defense System (Aegis).
Marine Corps

Intelligence Department
The INT is under direct supervision of the Directorate and is responsible for gathering, assembling and protecting vital information for the functionality of the Empire.
