[c.] Units of the Romulan Legions'
The foundation of the entire Romulan Legion is the individual Romulan.
• Individual Romulan /Legionnaire (Rei'karanha) - Members of the Legion fall into one of two general categories as individual soldier: Active Duty or Reservist.

o Active Duty - An Active Duty Romulan participates in MFI only as a Romulan and they are known solely by their task force rank. These members use their Romulan (Rihan) name, rank, and position in all official functions, forms, and written documentation. Only Active Duty Legionnaires will be permitted to hold official rank in the Legion’s command staff.
o Reservist - A Reservist is a 'sometimes' Romulan. They sometimes use a legionnaire’s rank and uniform. They could participate in their chapter as a Romulan but be naval or marine officer otherwise.
• Legion Detachment (Khellrea) - The basic unit of the Romulan Legion is the cell, group, or chapter.
Detachments may be classified as brigades (Khellrea’hauol'niykmar), battalions (Khellrea’lhanntho), or companies (Khellrea’lhanmei).
o In the case of an all-Romulan chapter, this can be a ship, station, fighter squadron, etc. In an all-Romulan chapter, the commanding and executive officers may double as the Commander and Deputy Commander, respectively, or appoint others. An MFI Chapter that is entirely or named to be Romulan use the Ship or Station Designation of MRV (Starship) MRS (station/outpost).
o A Romulan detachment on board a non-Romulan vessel is commanded by the senior legionnaire in charge, who in turn reports to the Commanding Officer of the vessel, or in the case of a singular unit, that officer reports directly to the vessel’s commanding officer. This would be the case of a Legion Liaison.
o The Patrol/Wing Commander (Ael'Riov) would either serve as or appoint a liaison to the Zone Coordinator. Each state within the patrol is a battalion (Khellrea’lhanntho).
• Legionnaire Council (seiHehllirh) - The Legionnaire Council assists the Commander of the Legions in the administration of the MRL. Key staff positions are noted in the Staff section.
