Question about Hive titles for the lore masters
So, ok, lingering question for a while.
Hive seem to have overly specific job titles that seem like something right out of the Microsoft Campus in Redmond. I've been really curious. How to hive get these job titles? Like, there's literally one called "Lead Asphyxiator", did he/she/it go to like 4 years of Asphyxiation school and get certed in the latest techniques for depriving someone of oxygen? (Mandatory 3 years of Javascript and C++ assumed as well, Ruby preferred.) Or is this like there's a special super worm who has the divine knowledge of asphyxiation and applies it to this individual, mutating them into a skilled service technician?
Like, if Hive tech support arrived, it seems like they would have a guy who does just Kernel updates, and someone who JUST handles userbase issues, and you'd be getting passed around all day. (Which may explain cursed thralls)
I know I'm using a kidding tone because the hive are absolutely hilarious, but I am asking seriously, what's up with the hyper specific hive jobs? Are hive a sort of caste system where they're born to be the role they are in, or do they start out as like Thralls and then work their way through like "Slow dipping mechanism school" until they become "Shmelchior: Guy who gets to pull lever to drop guardians into crystal chamber" or "Joey: Bringer of pizza"?

3 RepliesXX: Hive Verse 3:0 — Hive Let us speak of the terrible beauty of becoming ourselves. In the beginning we rode hollow moons from star to star. AURYX said, become as numerous and fertile as seeds in rich flesh, and thus we did become numerous. XIVU ARATH said, become as hungry and defiant as tumors in rich flesh, and thus we became cancerous. SAVATHÛN said, drink of the poisons of the worm, so that you might feed on death, and we did feed. This was preparation for our crusade. Aia! We were thus becoming. A mother Wizard gets fertility from a mate, or from herself. From the Wizard the spawn, from the spawn our Thrall, from the survivors our Acolytes who contend. If they contend well, their worm is fed, and from the well fed worm come Knights and Wizards and Princes. This is us, and our purpose is liberation, our great task is the worship and admiration of freedom, our great hunger is to pursue and eat that which is not free, and to liberate it with devouring. Aiat. This is us, we the Hive.
