Description (Specifications)
Gentlemen or ladies aren't technically nobility, but their prestige is based upon their own accomplishmnets as well as interaction with the nobility.
Entitlement Synopsis
Not technically a rank of nobility. An Imperial Gentleman is one who is independently wealthy at a level in which he interacts with Imperial Nobility. He may be a significant member of local planetary aristocracy, the descendant of an Imperial Knight, or related to a non-inheriting cadet-line of an Imperial Noble Title. An Imperial Gentleman might be known by any number of different local titles from local world cultures or traditions, including such Galanglic titles as, Lord, Esquire, Patrician, Thane, Master, Holder, etc., or alternatively, might be known by no special title at all other than "Imperial Gentleman".
- The bearer of a Medal for Conspicuous Gallantry or Starburst for Extreme Heroism ranks slightly below a Knight of the Empire in social status before the Emperor, and thus falls into the category of Imperial Gentleman. [1]
In addition to personal property and lands, an Imperial Gentleman may occasionally hold a single terrain hex as a land grant, usually on a non-mainworld within a system. An Imperial Gentleman's land grant is generally known as a Lordship or Seigneury or (if it is the location of the Gentleman's estate) a Manor. Note that until claimed and improved, the Imperium pays the holder of noble lands Cr1000 per Terrain-hex per year. [2]
- The bearer of a Discoverers' Land Grant (usually an award associated with members of the IISS) generally falls into the category of Imperial Gentleman.
