Arderials
Arderials, known most often simply as Tidani before the arrival of the humans of Tidan, are an avian species that developed on the rocky world of Karik. Their world is a vast landscape of cliffs, peaks, and spires broken by forests, oceans, lakes and valleys. Their civilization has risen up from this harsh landscape. Massive cities suspend over cliffs, climb mountain slopes, and hang over oceans from towering rock formations. This land has forged it's inhabitants from the fragile avian form into a hardy and tough beast. Fragile and beautiful as their appearance may be, it hides remarkably strong flesh and soul inside.

The Navy is responsible for Tidan's sovereignty and defense. This national force falls under the under the authority of the Admiralty, the six highest ranking officers in the Navy lead by the Hegemon. The department is divided into four major offices: Naval Command, Future Initiatives Division, Strategic Production Division, and Eclipse.
The Navy is a priority for Tidan and receives the second most funding of all government deparments. They are kept equiped with state-of-the-art equipment and receive galaxy class training. All citizens are required to serve in the Navy for at least two years, in the branch of their choosing. If demand is too uneven the recruits will be spread around. In the event that citizens are unable to serve, they are encouraged to serve in logistics. Manditory service bolsters the Navy's ranks, enstils pride and patriotism, and teaches descipline.

Eclipse
Eclipse is Tidan's Intelligence Agency. Though it is still a military organization under the command of the Navy, the necessary amount of secrecy involved in its working and autonomy given to it eventually resulted in an independent and parallel department. Eclipse falls under the direct command of the Admiralty who oversee and coordinate its endeavors and objectives with the rest of the Navy. Other departments, especially the NavCom, resent Eclipse because of the regularity with which agents appear within their ranks. Eclipse's mandate is to keep the political and military leadership informed of everything going on internally and externally, perform clandestined actions of the government, and to keep the government accountable.
