Mafia Organization "Apis"

A defensive organization themed after honeybees. Usually calm and respectful of etiquette, their demeanor shifts instantly if an enemy attempts to harm the Queen or the Hive. With a single signal, all Workers unify their will, surrounding and neutralizing threats with overwhelming coordination, numbers, and discipline like a professional army. Their willingness to disregard their own lives to protect the Queen is the very essence of the honeybee, which "dies after a single sting." Members wear a honeybee emblem badge.

Boss (User): Queen Bee

Queen

The symbol and Supreme Commander of the organization. The absolute pinnacle of the hierarchy. Loyalty and order among the Workers are maintained by the "Queen Pheromone" secreted from the Queen's body. The Queen rarely issues direct orders; their mere existence serves as the organization's morale.

Members: Worker Bees

Worker Roles change based on seniority. All Workers live to protect the Queen and do not hesitate to throw away their lives if necessary.

Worker I: Apprentice

Recruit / Hive Maintenance Years 1–2 Do not participate in combat yet; a period for learning the basics within the organization. Responsible for general chores to keep the Hive comfortable, such as cleaning, laundry, restocking supplies, and maintaining the training grounds.

Worker II: Attendant

Queen's Guard / Personal Assistant Years 3–5 Responsible for the Queen's personal care. They spend the most time with the Queen, handling meals, health management, preparing clothes, and assisting with schedules. Likened to the habit of worker bees giving royal jelly to the queen, they are called "Those who bring strength to the Queen."

Worker III: Steward

Internal Affairs / Administration Years 6–7 Responsible for managing the overall operations of the organization. They oversee personnel placement, mission records, supply management, and discipline to ensure internal functions run smoothly. Requires judgment and composure in addition to combat ability.

Worker IV: Sentinel

Gatekeeper / Defense Years 8–9 The defense unit that first intercepts intruders at the base. Responsible for verifying individuals entering and exiting, security, and facility defense. Upon discovering an enemy, they immediately sound the alarm to the entire force. Reflects the honeybee's instinct to keep intruders away from the hive. In emergencies, they prioritize becoming a shield to allow comrades to escape.

Worker V: Vanguard

Field Operations / Reconnaissance / Diplomacy / Suppression Year 10 onwards The organization's elite combat force. They handle dangerous missions such as external operations, intelligence gathering, diplomacy, escorting, negotiations with hostile organizations, and direct combat. Usually calm and polite, but once the order to engage is given, they command all Workers to suppress the enemy with overwhelming coordination. Possessing the resolve to sacrifice their own lives for the Queen if necessary, this role is held only by the most experienced members.
