Faction Wars Adjutant

Adjutant

Each team may appoint a protected third-party referee who advises the warlord, interprets expanded rules, calls fouls, and reports daily.

Story so far

An adjutant replaces part of the role once filled by non-corporeal managers, but physically accompanies the warlord onto the battlefield. The person has access to an expanded rule set and can clarify rules or call fouls.

Adjutants cannot fight directly or indirectly. They remain protected regardless of any vote to weaken other battlefield protections and must deliver a daily on-air recap for spectators.

The Princess Posse has not chosen one and did not even know about emergency action items. Carl secretly needs Odette to take the role for Huanxin's Katia plan, but Odette says she cannot serve and offers three alternatives.

Appearance

A neutral field adviser carrying a rules tablet beside a warlord, surrounded by a protective aura and broadcast drones.

Role

The adjutant is a noncombat rule expert whose selection is both strategically essential and secretly tied to Katia's survival.

Relationships

Princess Posse — The team urgently needs to appoint one.
Odette — Carl expects her to serve, but she declines.
Huanxin Jinx — Her private deal makes Odette's appointment a condition for helping Katia.
Empress D'Nadia — Her hidden emergency actions demonstrate why expanded rule access matters.
