The Savant is the nominal Leader of the Black Hand, a mysterious figure unknown even among the organisation. All the members owe allegiance to it.
Members are divided among three branches, Agents/Administrators/Soldiers. Members may receive ranks from each of the branches but this is extremely rare, most choosing to focus on advancement in one area.
Rankings do not necessarily reflect combat strength, as intelligence, completed missions, loyalty etc. play a role in determining the ranks.
The Savant is the final arbiter of ranks and must be approved by it.
