Card Codenames

Card Codenaming refers to the method Knights use to catalog members, opponents and significant denizens of Ayepeessee. It follows the standard 52 playing card deck, with extra cards.

Structure
The Codename list contains 52 names, divided into 4 suits, and further organized by rank (numbers) and royalty. It also contains a Joker, and a special card called Marlon.

Suits
The suits refer to a generalization of all those under it. It accompanies a formal name that is no longer/rarely used. (in parentheses) For Knights, these categories are loose and vague, some members actually choosing their own names because 'it sounds cool'.


 * Spade (Swords) refers to those with a focus on combat ability. While most under this suit are known for their physical prowess, not all have a significant rating.
 * Diamonds/Derps (Coins, now Pentacles) refers to those with a focus on their skill in pursuits of knowledge and power outside battle. While it once was used to categorize wealth, it became too broad and thus was replaced with the current definition after the King of Derps was placed.
 * Hearts (Chalices) refers to those whose focus or pursuit lies outside combat or knowledge. It mainly involves rivers and swimming in them. Believed to deal with those who pursue relationships.
 * Clubs (Wands) refers to threats, annoyances and opponents of the Knights. This list changes rapidly - one such example is the upgrade of Paps Jools from King of Clubs... to Joker.

Aces
Aces are usually persons who fall under the category yet do not seem to be the 'best' at the direct meaning behind the suit itself. However, they still remain very significant to the others in the suit. It is said that the Aces represent the 'raw' meaning of the suit.

Numbers
The Numbers refer to 9 of the most significant people in the category. The rankings differ depending on suit. Some suits use symbolism while others use actual ranking. Whether 9 to 2 or 2 to 9 differs, however.

Royalty
The Royalty refer to the most significant people of the Suit within the Knights. They are usually members with the best ability in the chosen suits. However, unlike numbers, they do not necessarily outrank each other. As such, a Jack may actually be better than the King or Queen in a certain aspect of the suit's meaning. (Such as the hearts suit)

Joker
The Joker is PAPS JOOLS. And for good reason. It can no longer be merely branded under any category, because it outclasses and corrupts the meaning of any suit it falls under. Also, it is a threat to all of Ayepeessee, and not just the knights alone. As such, it bears this distinction.

Marlon
Marlon is a man-god. He can have his own card when he wants to have his own card.

Plus, it trumps all the other cards. That's just how awesome it is.
