Editing Dark Angels Grand Master (section)

===Other Masters===
It's important to note that the normal Company Captains are simply referred to as "Master" and there is no requirement that they even be members of the Inner Circle at all. There are instances in the novels where Company Masters have been outranked by Deathwing Sergeants and Interrogator Chaplains when matters involving the Fallen have arisen, such is the way that the Inner Circle operates. This is also particularly true with the addition of Primaris Marines to the Chapter while the Unforgiven attempt to assess their loyalties, and only one example seems to have made it into the Inner Circle so far (to be fair, he was an established member of the Chapter to underwent the Rubicon Primaris rather than a fresh face).

Company Masters may also have different responsibilities to their equivalent codex Captains, and this is often irrespective of their position within the Inner Circle.

For instance: rather than being the Master of the Marches and overseeing the logistical deployment of the Chapters assets, the Captain of the 5th Company is instead the '''Master of the Unseen Ritual''', whose purpose is to collate knowledge of the ancient Orders of Caliban. While this sounds like somewhat a trivial task better left to a librarian, it must be remembered that even at the Legion's height, there were hundreds of secret orders of the ''Hekatonystika'' each with their own specialist fragments of lore, ritual, and experience in different aspects of warfare and against opponents both living and since extinct, that was also kept secret from non-members. Making it a much larger and deeper role than it seems and presumably makes the Captain of the 5th the go-to guy for information on obscure or esoteric subjects.

Similarly, instead of a Chief Victualler overseeing the serfs, the Captain of the 7th is styled '''Master of the Watchers'''. Their duty is to oversee a [[Alpha Legion|network of thousands of mortal sleeper agents all over the Imperium]], who feed back sightings or rumours of the Fallen, often under heavy hypno-indoctrination so that they are not even aware of what they are doing and in such a way that it seems innocuous to outsiders. This is how the Chapter is able to perpetuate their Hunt without Space Marines being directly present. It is interesting that this role is assigned irrespective of the Captain's own membership in the Inner Circle and knowledge of the Fallen. Therefore there may be instances where the Captain must rely on his companions and subordinates to appropriately act upon the intelligence gathered, in such a way as to not compromise the secret within the Chapter itself.

The head of the [[Techmarines]] is also ranked as a "Master", yet not Grand Master, not least because of the dual loyalties of the [[Techmarines]] to the Priesthood of Mars which specifically disqualifies him from the role, but because he is physically hooked up into [[The Rock]] and cannot participate in the Hunt to any appreciable degree and the less know the better.
