Order of Gateway

The Order of Gateway is the sixth highest order of knighthood in the Third Imperium.

• It is among the smallest of the major orders, because Gateway is the smallest of the domains, but circumstances have made it third in seniority among the domain orders.

Description (Specifications)

The subdivisions of the Order of Gateway are:

• Knight/Dame Commander of the Order of Gateway (K.C.G. / D.C.G.)
• Knight/Dame of the Order of Gateway (K.G. / D.G.)
• Companion of the Order of Gateway (C.G.)

An ordinary member is known as a Companion of the Order of Gateway (C.G.). Senior members receive the title Knight of the Order of Gateway (K.G.); there are fewer than a dozen of these. The head of the order (the "Grand Master") is currently the only Knight Commander of the Order of Gateway (K.C.G.).

• The Badge of the Order is "gules, a tree stump argent". This is not the coat of arms of the current archduke, but a badge traditionally associated with the order since its earliest days, for reasons unknown.
• The precedence of the order is after the Ancient Order of Vland and before the Order of Ilelish.

History & Background (Dossier)

The headquarters of the order are located on Annapabar, the capital of the Domain of Gateway, and contains the grand hall of the order.

• A secondary headquarters is located on Capital, in a high-rise arcology owned and occupied by Archduke Tranian.
