Bladeleaf

The Bladeleaf is the male variant of a Crownleaf, a rank in the Old Government. They usually stay in power once given the title until the Crown Princess marries and announces her husband as the next successor to the title.

Appointment
A Bladeleaf is appointed in a different way than a Crownleaf, and most do not choose to pass the title on to their son-in-law. The Bladeleaf is appointed when the Crownleaf decides to announce, on television, the appointment of a new Bladeleaf. They are then asked to sign a blood pact between both families---with witnessess---before becoming an official Bladeleaf.
