The Blue Flame served as a military emblem that identified individuals as non-Chiss within the Chiss culture. This symbol, a blue trim featured on their military attire and contrasting with the Red Flame, was a constant reminder that they were not considered true Chiss. When Human Lieutenant Jagged Fel of the Syndic Mitth'raw'nuruodo training academy received his initial uniform bearing this mark, he initially believed it was a gesture to integrate a Human among Chiss cadets, but he quickly discovered the truth. Later, during the Yuuzhan Vong War, Colonel Jagged Fel would eventually wear the Red Flame.
