- "His rank of "allegiant general" strongly suggests he was tasked with instilling loyalty and ideology within the First Order's ranks. He'd served within the Empire for years, and can probably be classed as a "true believer" in that sense."
- ―Beaumont Kin, on Enric Pryde
Allegiant General was a rank in the First Order military that held power over both ground and space-based forces, making it an equivalent to that of a Grand Marshal.[3] Historian Beaumont Kin further theorized that the rank had something to do with instilling loyalty within those under the holder's command and maintaining the Neo-Imperial ideology of the First Order.[4]
The rank was held by Admiral Enric Pryde[6] during the war between the First Order and the Resistance. General Armitage Hux believed that Supreme Leader Kylo Ren had promoted Pryde to allegiant general as a way to mock him, and also believed that all officers and stormtroopers present on the bridge of the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Steadfast knew it as well.[7] As a result of the alliance between the First Order and the Sith Eternal, Allegiant General Pryde ascended to command the armies of Darth Sidious.[5]
