They are: Nobles and commoners.<br /> <br /> As mentioned, the distinctions are physical as well as social. Nobility is established by birth, but a commoner can be promoted in his or her social status.<br /> <br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Physical Distinctions&#039;&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> Nobles are taller and more muscular in appearance than average. In Vincetti, nobles have violet skin, whereas commoners have deep purple skin. (This distinction does not exist between Alandran subjects.)<br /> <br /> Nobles are much stronger than commoners, in several ways. Physical strength is increased, often by tenfold or more. Nobles are also much faster than commoners.<br /> <br /> The most obvious, and in a fight, useful, way that nobles differ is their resistance to blaster fire. Energy weapons are almost useless on members of the nobility, as energy weapons have little to no effect on a noble.<br /> <br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Social Distinctions&#039;&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> Nobles fill all high-ranking military positions. Also, in Alandra, only nobility can partake of the Wine of the Sacrament. Vincetti have a similar drink available only to nobles, but do not have the rituals associated with it.<br /> <br /> On the rare occasion when a commoner is promoted to the nobility, the promotion happens on the Day of Mourning, and the commoner can then drink the Wine of the Sacrament. Only then are they considered a noble.<br /> <br /> Such promoted nobles are neither as strong or tall as natural-born nobles. Often, a natural-born noble will not consider a promoted noble to be his social equal. This has created an un-official third caste.</div>
