Here is a guide to all of those fancy terms I use for the Rin empire. Some of these have alternate spelling also (Which I will include).

Adepta:

A Adepta is a major branch of government there are 5 in total they being the Administratum, Ecclestum, Vigilistum, Militum, and Classis.

Alternate spelling: Adeptes and Adeptum they are interchangeable with Adeptes being both singular and plural. (Although the proper plural is Adeptae)

Vigilistum:

The law and order arm of the galaxy.

Alterante spelling: Vigilistia/Vigilistae

Primus:

A leader of a legion.

Alternate spelling: Primia (Only used for the plural Primiae, seeing as primuses is rather clunky)

Schola:

A School in all senses of the word. Proper plural is Scholae

Alternate spelling: Scholum (Generally used as the term for all Scholas)

Officio:

A smaller branch of the government under a Adepta and focuses on a more narrowed subject.

Alternate spelling: Officium, Officia.

terms for things outside of the empire (Mainly other Races)

Theia:

The term normally used for Jiral within the empire. Theia was an old Rin godess of sight who fell out of fashion and symbol was a all seeing eye (red and black eye on a golden cross) ever since Jiral was 'allowed' they have reincorporated the temples of Theia and goddess herself to use for Jiral worship (Mainly financial reasons) some with a more heretical mindset claim the princess Lustinia (The bride of the avatar) is Theia incarnate.

Hominum:

The term for human.

Adtonitus:

The name for the Atenii within the empire. Although some prefer the more insulting term of Puer.

Aegypti:

The term for the Mahaal within the empire.

Persae:

The term for the people of Ashur, Naji, and many others.

Paedor:

Common term used for Green Belters, although some use the term Squales.

Catillatio:

Used for any Non-Citizen Merchant/trader.

This is just a few terms. If you have any question or wish to know a term not listed, ask away.
