	'''Dame Commander Annaliese Strelitz''' - If anyone were to be considered the face and heart of the Order it would be its treasurer, Annaliese Strelitz. The Dame Commander invests much time attending and organising social events within the Order, often inviting non-members and fellow Imperial aviators to observe its activities. This cavorting has won her friends both inside and outside of the Order – especially with those who wish to associate themselves with the prestige of knighthood or aspire to become knights themselves. Many connections useful to Annaliese and the Imperial Flying Corps were made through the Order. Annaliese is known for her commitment to the ideals and image of Knighthood, proclaiming herself to be the, “Paragon of Knightly Virtue, '' even amongst her peers. She is always decorated in symbols of the Order and has a reputation for being exacting on any younger knights who fail to reach her high standards, particularly those of the Imperial Flying Corps. Annaliese is well-known for her attendance and organisation of Parades, where she rides atop a pure white horse dressed in a commissioned set of gleaming platemail with grand wings rising from the back and adorned with full Order regalia.

	'''Knight Commander Kasz Han’san''' - Granted a knighthood due to his work as Chief Minister of Unathi Affairs, Han’san fills a vital position as the most respected Unathi of the Order and the only one of his species among its commanders. Due to the dominance of House Strelitz within the Order, many of its upper echelons want little to do with Unathi knights - which has led to Kasz becoming unofficially responsible for matters concerning the Unathi knights of the Order. While this duty goes unrecognised by the Order’s leadership, Kasz has acquired a great deal of goodwill among the Order unathi for his work. Despite his advanced age Kasz is frequently seen at Order events decorated in its livery, and frequently speaks on the importance of the ideals and virtues of knighthood in maintaining the Empire’s dignity and honour.

	==Interspecies Relations==		==Interspecies Relations==

	Though Unathi have joined Dominia’s rise to the international scene, points of contention exist between humans and Unathi in the budding country. A sect of humans, a noteworthy amount being Fisanduhian, resent Unathi being accepted into the country. For some, this can be attributed to xenophobic roots; isolation from the greater galaxy for some time could explain this general behavior. Alternatively, their allegiance is sworn to the Emperor could be seen as a form of meddling in an internal conflict the Unathi should never be a part of. The problem still exists either way, and discrimination and hate crimes targeting Unathi are a significant problem within the empire.		Though Unathi have joined Dominia’s rise to the international scene, points of contention exist between humans and Unathi in the budding country.

For some, this can be attributed to xenophobic roots; isolation from the greater galaxy for some time could explain this general behavior. Alternatively, their allegiance is sworn to the Emperor and role played in the occupation of Fisanduh could be seen as a form of meddling in an internal conflict the Unathi should never be a part of. The problem still exists either way, and discrimination and hate crimes targeting Unathi are a significant problem within the empire.

	Another sizable distinction between these two different groups is their views on religion. While it is true the fanatical Unathi contributed some of their religious ideals to the Morozi religion, various people of either species struggle with a singular and unifying interpretation of the religion. The Han’sans and the Strelitz lean towards traditional, stricter interpretations of the Kaelkahist denomination, whereas many Dominians within the Empire -- particularly those affiliated with Houses Volvalaad and Zhao -- and the Kazhkz go by more liberal Jakakhist interpretation. Religious disputes often flare over decisions in faith as a result. More interestingly, however, is the tendency for some Unathi to revere the Aspects of the Goddess and the Goddess herself as great powers in a pantheon rather than singular parts of a whole. With this, a few Unathi even recognize and venerate powerful spirits, whether ancestors or those of lore, and pay regular tribute to them. The Han’sans are more prone to this traditional worship, stemming from their Th’akhist practices and both admirable and stubborn dedication to the old ways. Compared to the overly devout practices of the Unathi, most worship towards the Tribunal from humans remains seemingly tokenistic and unenthusiastic for most, merely going through the motions to satisfy the state-mandated religion rather than having faith. In either case, the clashing perspectives on the Morozi faith have yet to be settled and reconciled, and likely will not for some time.		Another sizable distinction between these two different groups is their views on religion. While Kasz Han’san, as Chief Minister of Unathi Affairs managed to convince Dominia’s Sinta population to convert over matters of honors, it’s clear that some worship the Goddess more out of necessity rather than out of honest devotion. On the more sincere side, while it is true the fanatical Unathi contributed some of their religious ideals to the Morozi religion, various people of either species struggle with a singular and unifying interpretation of the religion. The Han’sans and the Strelitz lean towards traditional, stricter interpretations of the Kaelkahist denomination, whereas many Dominians within the Empire -- particularly those affiliated with Houses Volvalaad and Zhao -- and the Kazhkz go by more liberal Jakakhist interpretation.

In either case, the clashing perspectives on the Morozi faith have yet to be settled and reconciled, and likely will not for some time.

	Between the two species, despite their differences, developments in culture see them both coming together. House Caladius in particular enjoys close relationships and collaboration with House Kazhkz; while they are not nearly as established as the other Great Houses, the Unathi house is seeing quicker development thanks to House Caladius’ abilities with infrastructure development. In turn, some Unathi see service within Caladius as religious acolytes or, should they feel their talents are away from battle, banking and management. Though there is some disdain between them, the Houses usually see some interplay and “swapping” of members, with House Kazhkz and Zhao seeing the most resistance to exchanging talents between them. The Kazhkzs hold open arms to those who wish to make a little more money and “have a little more fun” as they would impishly put it, and similar minds craving adventure (and that are more liberal in nature) often venture to House Volvalaad.

	Unathi have taken a liking to most Dominian pastimes— fencing and martial arts were both contests of skill and prowess on Moghes, and even the Emperor remarked on their skills before they swore into the Empire. However, the most surprising of these activities was their interest in video games. Due to Unathite physiology though, special controllers and grips have to be ordered custom made for anyone seriously into the hobby.

	The first, dubbed ‘'''Jabgi''',’ was established by Lord-Admiral Eun-Kyung Zhao along with the renowned Eun-Kyung Zhao Imperial Naval Académie on Moroz in the late 2390s. Jabgi is an evolution of the naval combat techniques that made the Lord Admiral famous within the Imperial Navy, and as such, it incorporates many techniques found in ship-boarding melee combat. The most popular weapon used by Jabgi duelists is the saber, followed closely by the epee. Jabgi is characterized by its aggression, and is the more offensive style of the three. Jabgi is the foremost style of dueling taught at all Zhao-affiliated institutions.

	'''Chevalerie''', popular among House Streliz, evolved from the Morozian Order of the Hallowed Treutdoro and is a dueling style that incorporates elements of the knightly order from which it was founded. The ~~Holy~~ Treutdoro, founded by Imperial Knight and Governor Emil Johannes Strelitz in the early 2400s, originated as a primary-only Order dedicated to physical fitness and honor-bound virtue. However, as the Empire shifted slowly towards relative liberalization, the Order was forced to charge. It allowed citizens of all castes into the order, and began to spread a new form of combat— Chevalerie— to Moroz and abroad with the intent of teaching a more refined form of combat to the masses. Chevalerie is considered the more traditional form of dueling, and is characterized by its defensive, precise and ‘showy’ nature. This style of combat is taught by most Strelitz institutions, in particular the Dorothea-Frieda Strelitz Académie on Moroz. The Académie, and House Zhao’s Imperial Naval Académie have a fierce rivalry which reaches its boiling point every November with His Majesty Godwin's Royal Dueling Tournament.

	'''Kirihide''' is a relatively new style developed within the Empire, and is of itself a direct product of the Empire’s love of dueling. For as long as geneboosting has existed in the Empire, tournament-devotees have sought ways to close the gap between those with gene-editing and those without. Kirihide was originated by Lord Melchior Caladius, a prominent tournament financier who was known for sponsoring skilled Secondaries and even Ma’zals and turning them into regional tournament champions. After watching a local Ma’zal custom that involved wrestling on an occupied world, Caladius had an epiphany: what if grappling was allowed in official tournaments? It was thus that Kirihide was born, named for the translation of “inner strength” in the local language. Kirihide is a demanding fighting style designed for grappling with larger and stronger opponents in mind, using their own strength against them. It is considered the most difficult to learn of the three mainstream forms of Dominian dueling, and is often looked down upon for its origin. The style is usually only practiced by duelists who anticipate fighting larger, typically geneboosted opponents.
