The Companions of the Imperator

As the lovers and wives of the Imperator, as well as his closest friends and comrades, The Companions of the Imperator take their name from the meaning of the ancient word Hetaira and its most popular use, the Companions of Alexander the Great. While the Companions of Macedon were all in fact male, they were Alexander's close friends and elite bodyguards. The Companions of the Imperator simply take the "bodyguard" aspect one step further into the carnal and romantic field.

Widely respected and honored, the Companions never travel without at least a half-dozen guards, though all of them are perfectly capable of defending themselves long enough to escape any ambush that was foolish enough to attack them, if they did not simply crush it off-hand. each speaks with the authority of the Imperator Himself in all matters, whether they be personal or affairs of State.

In the military field, each is regarded as second only to the Imperator himself, and any orders from them are to be obeyed as such.

Attempts to get 'familiar' with one of The Companions is tantamount to a death sentence, as each member is deeply loyal to their husband and sister wives, and defend that bond with vigour bordering on savage brutality. Indeed, it is considered better to be caught by the Imperator or one of the Legates themselves, as they will most likely simply kill you. The Companions, however, are more likely to make one suffer.
