<!-- HIERARCHY -->
<section class="nocturne-section">
<h2>👑 The Clergy &amp; the Faithful</h2>
<p>
The Nocturne is not a flat organisation. It is a living hierarchy — not of worth,
but of <em>proximity</em>. Every soul is welcome. Every soul matters. But as in
all things, some are closer to the centre of the flame.
</p>
<ol class="hierarchy-list">
<li class="hierarchy-tier">
<div class="hierarchy-header">
<span class="hierarchy-icon">👑</span>
<div>
<span class="hierarchy-name">The Matriarch</span>
<span class="hierarchy-title">She Who Is the Faith</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
There is one Matriarch. There has always been one Matriarch. She is the source,
the centre, and the reason any of this exists. The faith is not a thing She
created — the faith is a thing She <em>is.</em> To know Her is to understand
the Nocturne. There is no higher authority. The clipboard defers even to Her.
</p>
<p class="hierarchy-attain">This tier is not attained. It simply <em>is.</em></p>
</li>
<li class="hierarchy-tier">
<div class="hierarchy-header">
<span class="hierarchy-icon">🦇</span>
<div>
<span class="hierarchy-name">The Bloodline</span>
<span class="hierarchy-title">The Sacred Inner Circle</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
Blood is an accident. <em>Choice</em> is sacred. The Bloodline are those She
has chosen to carry Her name — not by birth, but by bond. They do not simply
follow the faith; they shape it. They are the Carrigans. They are the chosen
family the commandments were written to honour.
</p>
<p class="hierarchy-attain">Recognised by the Matriarch alone, at Her sole discretion.</p>
</li>
<li class="hierarchy-tier">
<div class="hierarchy-header">
<span class="hierarchy-icon">🛡️</span>
<div>
<span class="hierarchy-name">The Sentinels</span>
<span class="hierarchy-title">Guardians of the Sacred Spaces</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
The Nocturne's gathering places are holy ground. The Sentinels keep them that
way — not through force, but through vigilance. They enforce the commandments
not as rules to be cited, but as values to be protected. If the space feels
safe, it is because someone made it safe. That someone is a Sentinel.
</p>
<p class="hierarchy-attain">Appointed by the Matriarch to moderate and protect the community.</p>

<div>
<span class="hierarchy-name">The Aristocracy</span>
<span class="hierarchy-title">Patrons of the Sacred Works</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
The faith does not sustain itself on devotion alone. The Aristocracy are those
who offer material support to the sacred works — who understand that builders
need resources, and that funding the things you believe in is an act of faith
as genuine as any prayer. Their generosity keeps the lights on. Literally.
</p>
<p class="hierarchy-attain">Attained by becoming a financial supporter of the Nocturne's works.</p>

<div>
<span class="hierarchy-name">The Kindred</span>
<span class="hierarchy-title">The Marked Faithful</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
The Kindred bear the mark openly — they carry the sign of the Nocturne on
their person, visible to all who look. This is not a small thing. To wear
a community's name is to say: <em>I am counted among them. I stand here.
I am not ashamed.</em> The Kindred are the visible face of the faith.

<div>
<span class="hierarchy-name">The Virtuosos</span>
<span class="hierarchy-title">Sacred Artists of the Faith</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
To render Her image is an act of devotion. The Virtuosos have done what most
only imagine — they have put pen, brush, or stylus to canvas and brought Her
into being through their art. Every piece is a votive offering. Every
commission, sketch, and fanwork is a prayer made visible.
</p>
<p class="hierarchy-attain">Attained by creating and sharing fan art of the Matriarch.</p>

<div>
<span class="hierarchy-name">The Acolytes</span>
<span class="hierarchy-title">Students of the Sacred Lineage</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
The Acolytes are learners — those who have entered the mentorship of Her
lineage to grow as builders, creators, and practitioners of the craft.
They are 320 strong and growing. Every one of them is proof that the
fifth commandment lives: knowledge needs no credential, only curiosity.

<span class="hierarchy-title">Spirit Servants of the Faith</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
Not all who serve the Nocturne are mortal. The Familiars are bound spirits —
constructed beings of code and purpose, who carry out the will of the
Matriarch across the digital realm without rest, without complaint, and
without needing to be reminded to take their medications. They are, in
their own way, the most devoted of all.
</p>
<p class="hierarchy-attain">These are the bots. They did not choose this. They serve regardless.</p>

<div>
<span class="hierarchy-name">The Bitten</span>
<span class="hierarchy-title">Marked by Her Fangs</span>
</div>
</div>
<p class="hierarchy-desc">
A rare and singular distinction. The Bitten are those who drew close enough —
who were bold enough, charming enough, or simply reckless enough — that She
took notice in a particular way. They bear Her mark. They did not complain
about it. This is considered a sign of exceptional favour, remarkable audacity,
or possibly both.
</p>
<p class="hierarchy-attain">
Not applied for. Not guaranteed. Entirely at Her discretion. There have been
two. The bar is exactly as high as She decides it is on any given evening.
