Draped in the Accord’s Mantle; Celestial Raiment

on


 To wear the Celestial Raiment is to carry a visible receipt of the Accord’s faith. It is not always a full uniform—often it is a distinct mantle, a geometric badge of white gold, or a specific cut of field-jacket authorized only for "civilian assets" of proven loyalty. In the chaotic sprawl of the Frontier, this raiment screams two things: this person has powerful friends, and this person is watching you.

For the pragmatic adventurer, the Raiment is a key that unlocks the "good shelves." Quartermasters who once offered only surplus rations and rusted sidearms will, upon seeing the Raiment, open the secure lockers. Plasma-edged blades, high-tensile weaves, and encrypted comms units become available—tools meant for those who enforce Order, not just those who live under it. But be warned: the Accord does not arm potential threats. If your loyalty wavers, the Raiment—and the supply lines it opens—will be stripped away faster than you can draw your new weapon.

The Celestial Raiment boon signals an adventurer has earned the Accord's material trust. Beyond mere recognition, this boon grants the explicit right to purchase Uncommon equipment from Accord armories and quartermasters. Access to this military-grade hardware is strictly regulated; this boon represents the bureaucratic clearance to buy better gear without resorting to the black market.
