-Their attire again is quite spartan - simple and functional with church colours (black/red/green). Only the highest orders of the church can wear lavish armor/clothing; the fancier the garb, the more prestige of the wearer. So Gort's flamboyant coat/boots is like pope robes 😅

-Banites prefer to first forge alliances before resorting to coercion (blackmail/extortion), then violence last. If a person/entity is no use to Banites, an alliance isn't needed, and they will enforce a use (probably hard labour), or simply extinguish them.
