A probatio is a member of the legion who hasn't proven his bravery, worth, etc. yet. Once a probatio performs an 'act of valor' and proves him/herself, they are given a tattoo on their arm, which is the letters SPQR over as many stripes as years that person has been a full member of the legion, a legionnaire. Next to the letters SPQR is the symbol of your godly parent or ancestor. A legionnaire has higher rank and status than a probatio. There are five cohorts, the first being considered the best and the fifth considered the worst. Each cohort has two centurions. A centurion is basically co-leader of a cohort, and the centurions for each cohort stand for that cohort and are responsible for the members of that cohort. There is one standard bearer for every cohort. Basically, they carry the standard. The Romans are all about the drama. There is one standard bearer for the whole Twelfth Legion, which is basically all of Camp Jupiter. Their standard is the eagle. This is a very honored position-unless they've lost the eagle to their enemies. Then they hold the empty golden pole. There is only one augur. The augur does the job of an Oracle, since the Romans do not have an Oracle. The Romans' book of prophecies, the Sybilline books, which outlined the entire destiny of the Romans, was lost a long time ago. The augur slaughters stuffed animals and uses their stuffing to sacrifice and study the future, and receive prophecies and such. Their approval is important on many things and they have a great influence on the camp. The praetor has the highest and most powerful role in the camp. There are two praetors, and they work together. They are basically the leaders of Camp Jupiter. They are treated with most respect, and their word is the final ruling.
