Rheelas has had a rememberancer tradition dating back to the Great Crusade. The past ten thousand years has been kind to the institution on the mining world, and while the Granite Guard has nothing like a Commissariat, it does tend to assign squads their own Rememberancer, typically some form of artist or poet to record the deeds of the squad and to produce what largely amounts to propaganda for distribution to the common folk of the Hive Cities. In this way, the rememberancers help to maintain the morale of both the soldiers that they observe as well as the citizens of the Hive that consume the art that they produce. Most rememberancers come from the upper class gentry of the Hive Cities, where they bring prestige to their aristocratic families as well as bear their families influence in the field. In the troubled times of the 41st millenia, some of these Remembrancers harken back to the muckraker/news reporters of old.
