== Reconciliation notes ==
* '''"Given Rank" appears to lag.''' In every documented case the S43 promotions match the '''Achieved''' rank, not the worksheet's '''Given''' value — Shade was made Viper (R3), Xanphina Defender (R2), and Karma Rivercaller (R2). The worksheet's Given column (R2/R1/R1 respectively) is likely just behind; recommend updating it to match what's been conferred.
* '''Boons mostly undefined.''' Only the three S43 promotions have recorded boons. Define a per-rank boon for each track (Devils, Orc Ancestors, Raven Queen, Harpers, Athena especially) so future promotions have something to grant.
* '''Worksheet spellings:''' the sheet writes "Iskrathralax" (canonical [[Iskralathrax]]) and "Castle Naeyrtar" (canonical [[Castle Naerytar]]) — normalized here.
* '''Athena / Alexios:''' this track is orphaned after Alexios's soul was lost (S50); also unsquared with his S40 Oathbreaker turn. Needs a DM ruling on whether it transfers, freezes, or closes.
