Kompentia

There is no organized Civil Service in the Empire, no standardized system of rank or pay scale. Each year the schools produce thousands of Kompentia (Competents). The Kompentia are recognized by the Empire's vast networks of AIs, and offered work with whatever agency, group, or bureaucracy can best use their talents. The day-to-day business of a structure like Idara Altamira, for example, is run by the Kompentia; only in great emergencies or unforseen situations does the Idara hierarchy actually make decisions. And then, tradition usually ensures that their decisions are as conservative as possible.
