The most secret of all secret societies in the four Empires, the Broken Arrows organized itself in quartets, cells of four members each. Their system of command was both lateral and hierarchical. Each member had contact with only three cells. Each cell member led one cell and was a follower in two other cells. No two members of the same cell were co-members of another cell. No single member knew more than nine fellow members. Of these nine, two were superiors, three were subordinates, and four were equals. Encoded into each member"s psychic signature was a special frequency combination known only to that person"s contact-cell members. Does this arrangement confuse you? It did Imperial counter-insurgency forces.—Secret Societies Before the Fall, by Spreading Rumor.
