A lancer is a young soldier or aide in the service of a high-ranking military or political figure, such as an Imperator or ArchGovernor. The highest ranking Lancer of a House is known as the ArchLancer,[1] and is often as close to their patron as if they were their superior's own child.[2]

The position of a lancer is highly coveted due to it being the first rung on the path to command positions, as serving a patron house well serves as a gateway to higher offices.[3]

Lancers within a House are divided into ranks based on their seniority, with junior echelon-prime being the lowest rank.[4]
