Tribune

"Tribune" was a rank which existed in several hierarchies.

In the Roman Empire's army, a Legate leading a Legion was assisted by six "military tribunes"; their duties "include[d] both administrative and combat functions", from "supply procurement one day" to "command[ing] a scouting force" to acting as a messenger between the Legate and the overall army commander should they become separated. Tribunes were generally high-born young men at the start of their careers, who would go on to become military commanders or governors. (GAME: ) Marcus Cornelius Falco was a Tribune of the Second Legion, under Legate Vespasian, when he became embroiled in the War Chief's plot in 43 AD Britain. (GAME: )

"Tribune" was the "lowly" rank held by the Goth of House Duskeriall when he was a minor member in the court of Time Lords which dealt with the aftermath of the War Chief incident. (PROSE:, ) As a Tribune, he worked under the Supreme Being who oversaw the trial, (PROSE: ) otherwise known as the First Time Lord — who had a close physical resemblance (TV: ) to Goth himself (TV: ) because the latter desired the Supreme Being's job, which had subconsciously influenced his choice of appearance. (PROSE: ) Tribune Goth's dissent from the rest of the court on the matter of what to do with Ossu (PROSE:, ) looked prescient in hindsight after the course of action he'd been opposing led to an unexpected deviation in history. As a result, he was quickly promoted, rising through the ranks and eventually ending up as Altissimus Cancellarius. (PROSE: )
