Knight-Captain Nicoðima, Junior Lieutenant Andrano and Senior Lieutenant Ota (adjutant to Nicoðima); during their share deployment two-year deployment to the Southern Army Central Group, before it was redeployed and reorganized to the Northern Front following the cessation of hostilities (and the forcible demilitarization of the province in question, including dismantling of strategic castles). The post-feudal model of the royal knights and royal shock army, with military houses and clans responsible for supplying their own clothing, basic equipment and light materiel, led to a high level of visual fragmentation common to the military. However, within the last century after the opening of relations with sovereign states in Eurasia, many among the nobility and military leadership promoted the idea a uniformed mode of dress (or uniform) among the officer corps, to be issued rather than purchased. Ideally, rather than just wearing armor, or leather underclothes, or even civilian clothing, outside of combat deployed military could wear matching uniforms that would minimize class distinctions during war. Change is hard, and the best they could manage were dress uniforms specific to each major army group, such as the black gold-trimmed uniforms adopted by the Southern Army, that were not adopted elsewhere. A woman (or man) like Séirye Nicoðima, with a military career lasting centuries with dozens of different postings, could end up with just as many, nonmatching uniforms (which defeated the purpose of the project).

[Author's Note: This is perhaps the only way I could easily sneak in a male character (which is something this new asset model manages better than the old one); yes, their species has males (the text has already explained that). Don't worry, I will still keep overwhelmingly generating female characters and sexy pin-ups.]
