Summer Camp 2024: A leader or high-ranking person in an organization

The High General is the supreme leader of the Peacekeepers of United Terra. The title was formed by then-Brigadier-General Aedar Kincaid and his close subordinates Jakob Desmon and Harry Wallon when they wrote the Peacekeeper's Declaration of Secession from the Democratic Peoples of Terra in 2516 following the New Athens Massacre. Aedar Kincaid did not intend to lead the Peacekeepers for longer than absolutely necessary at the time of the faction's formation, but has found himself back in command even after his attempt at retirement thanks to the untimely death of his chosen replacement.  
Five months. I was retired for five forsaken months, and now I have to go back? I'm a hundred and ten years old, dammit.
— Aedar Kincaid in 2526

Qualifications

The first and foremost qualification to become High General is military experience. Both of the people who have currently served as High General had over a decade of experience as a military officer.   The next High General is hand-picked by the current, although the second High General — Elber Wallon — died before he could name a replacement, and thus the first High General retook his former mantle.

Notable Holders

  • Aedar Kincaid (reign 2516-2525, 2526-present) — both the first and third holder of the title, Aedar Kincaid is a significant, almost deified figure among the PUT. At 116 years old, though, he is becoming desperate in his search for a second successor.
  • Elber Wallon (reign 2525-2526) — the second holder of the title and the son of one of the founders of the PUT, Elber Wallon only ruled for five months before his untimely death from lung cancer. Elber was unable to name a successor before his death.
