"[T]hough i think me and the readers need some clarity on who is a crew boss with their own faction in the empire besides Hookwolf and Kreig and who besides Fenja and Menja is in the Anders loyalist camp." <- Came up.
Power flows from Kaiser in the Empire. Right now, the Empire 88 is more circles than factions.
Kaiser at the top, followed by Krieg and Viktor(The Captains if you will). Both are loyal to the Empire, but Krieg has the most direct ties to the Gesellschaft(His greater loyalty). Fenja and Menja are arguably at this level, but they act as bodyguards and agents of Kaiser's will for the most part, they don't really advise or anything. Viktor takes the space Krieg did for Allfather. Krieg is the older advisor loyal to the (dead) Grandfather, Viktor is the younger advisor loyal to the Father.
Othala is kinda in weird political spaces. She has a lot of worth, being a Trump who can heal. Rune is her closest relative, and Rune kind of falls into the same space, due to her age and relation to Krieg.
The rest sort of fall into Lt type positions, and are a bit more ground level. Hookwolf, Cricket, and Stormtiger all hang out, and 'work' together. Crusader is loyal to the cause but his heart aches at the missing Purity (who would be a Captain in her own right, due to her power levels (over 9000) but likely without a whole lot of troop support). Alabaster (and Crusader) is a bit more involved on the street level because of his power, so a lot of the mooks know him. Night and Fog are really loyal to the cause but are retired and loyal to Purity before Kaiser, but more loyal to the cause than Purity.
Hookwolf and his friends are probably more loyal to Kaiser than anyone else in the organization, but that's because Kaiser is charismatic. Hookwolf heads up the 'lead enforcer' type position and is the 'kill sponge' for the organization. He has the highest personal kill count followed by Stormtiger and Cricket, who are pretty equal in terms of kills.
Hookwolf is the kind of guy who would be a cop if only to abuse the fuck out of the position and hurt people. He's a so-so leader in the modern age. Back in ye olden tymes, he'd be given a decent command, a few dragonships and sent a viking. He believes, and the cause is what allows him to be big, mean, and powerful. Stormtiger and Cricket fall into the same boat. They -are- racist and have always been, but it's more about being in a position of power for them(Even if they don't realize it).
If Purity left town, Crusader would probably follow.
Alabaster is not fond of Krieg at all, and usually works under Viktor.
... I don't recall much of this coming up in canon, so I could have some details messed up if it did.
But Theo will jump straight to a position of power. He is expected to inherit, and so everyone expects him to start getting leadership jobs right off. Mostly his commitment to the cause will be questioned, if anything. It would behoove his initiation kill to be brutal from capture to kill. Or have really good words about why animals deserve a quick clean death. Everyone kind of expected Theo to join the Empire if he did trigger, despite his previous distaste concerning the cause. That or run straight to the PRT ASAP.
Word has already reached the other Parahumans in the gang, that Theo triggered and is joining the Empire. Most of them will figure he won't be pulling a mole plan, if he debuts with the Empire. If he runs, that's when they'll start having issues, or if he starts trying to make the Empire not white-supremacist(Honestly, they'd, in general, probably be alright with if the Empire went KKK WN style, but you'd lose a lot of Gesellschaft backing.). Kaiser is going to have an extra few eyes on Theo. Or have the ones he already has be a bit more attentive than usual.
