Clove

The Sovereign Army . . . There are five known branches of the Jutrani's military: Offworld Fleet (Local space-force, recruited from provincial planets), Onworld Infantry (Local ground troops, recruited from provincial planets), Sovereign Fleet (Cultivated, specialized space-force charged to oversee Jutran and Jutrani ports), Sovereign Infantry (Cultivated, specialized troops often located on or near Jutrani occupancies), and Outermost Regiment (Sovereignty expanse border protection). Only the highest of powers are aware of the true nature of the unspoken sixth.

The women of the battalion are no exception to female principles. In fact, they are prompted to follow such guidelines more devoutly than some of the higher ranks within the Sovereignty. Their unique position amongst Jutrani's champion males warrants etiquette and self-accountability where carelessness would inevitably bring about harm. The rules and principles are as follows:

► Celibacy is to be maintained until official word allocates individual pairing.
► Provocative language, gestures, or implications are disallowed.
► Maintain modest dress. Exposure of waist, cleavage, stomach, crotch, backside, nape, or thighs are prohibited. Facial coverings mandatory during drills and active duty.
► Any flirting, excessive banter, or attempts at seduction must be reported.
► Extended privacy between any two individuals must recieve prior clearance.

Clove's personal approach to the principles trumps most. Whether tethered to duty or subjected to abeyance, the Second Mate not only clothes every inch of skin, but maintains veils of various forms to conceal her face. On the rare occasion, she exhibits her naked eyes. Simple fashion, soft silhouette, and easy against stark color make up every one of her appearances. And where eyes can't feast, she supplies excellent company. Her voice carries just the right tone, her frame bears just the right posture, her conversational contributions indicate just the right diligence.. One would think she hailed from a line of nobility if not for her title. It is the careful balance of virtue and confidence that makes Clove the ever popular Baroness. It is the careful balance of virtue and confidence she puts forth to please her Sovereignty.
