As a rule, the EOS structure system was revised after the conflict with the Nomads and infected people - instead of an inconvenient ranking system, it was decided to divide the EOS into 3 “layers”. Each of the layers has its own powers, which can be regulated individually, but not go beyond what is permitted. The following information is required for familiarization and allows you to accurately understand the meaning of the internal structure of the organization. There are the following ranks in the EOS (descending):
Observateur (O) - top rank in EOS. As a rule, a candidate who has been selected by a past observer is nominated for the post of observer. If the old observateur was killed, then the decision on promotion is made by the commissaires. If there are none, see"fall scenarios".
Commissaire (С) - The right hand, or several hands of the observer. They are leaders and mentors for agents. As a rule, it's verified people who came to their post, having earned the trust of an observateur and other commissaires. These people replace the observateur in the event of his death. If the commissaires and the observateur are absent in the structure of the EOS - see"fall scenarios".
Agent (A) - As a rule, the lowest "layer" of the EOS and having a minimum of authority. Agents do not have a wide range of actions within the EOS, but, like commissaires or observateur, they can occupy high posts outside the EOS. These people have earned special trust among the commissaires or observateur, showing appropriate qualities for flooding in the EOS. As a rule, agents are entrusted with most of the "dirty work", so they are valued on a par with those who stand above them.
Naming principle (examples):
O-01 - The letter "O" means the word "observateur", the number "01" indicates the number of observer after the last. That is, the current observer, Maximilian Bernard, is the third in the entire history of the EOS.
C-01-01 - The letter "C" means the word "commissaire", the first number "01" indicates the level of authority of the commissaire at the moment. The second number "01" means the number of the commissioner after the last. As a rule, the higher the first figure, the lower the powers of the commissaire in the structure of the EOS.
A-0001 - The letter "A" means "Agent", a four-digit number indicates the number of the agent after the last. If the agent is empowered, then after a four-digit number, the corresponding letter is assigned.
The involved members of the EOS include agents on intelligence/counterintelligence tasks, agents assigned to manage ships belonging to the EOS (regardless of the ship class).
EOS "home stations" - the stations where the largest number of EOS agents reside. These stations are mainly used for the "EOS's readings", or for other special meetings of agents/commissaires and observateur.
Notice (1):Commissaires can be endowed with equal powers or different. Notice (2):The death of the current observateur should lead to a change of observateur's name in the example-description of the ranks on new name.
