Imperial Military

The most fearsome fighting force in history, the Imperial Military holds the most advanced technology the most well trained soldiery and the highest standards of discipline that there ever was and will be. We strike fiercely and unrelentingly to demoralize our foes and to crush them under the weight of our walkers and harry them to annihilation with the firepower of our Star Destroyers. In turn, our dedication to Imperial Authority and Galactic Unification is an inspiration to our Imperial Citizenry.

Those who are loyal shall reap the benefits of Imperial exceptionalism and shall find great comfort in the knowledge that the Imperial Military is ever present to ward off rebellious traitors and barbarian alien hordes. Those who forget their allegiance and loyalty, however, shall face the dire consequences of which they are promised. The iron hand of the Empire reigns supreme and those who would challenge Imperial Resolve will be ground to dust and made a forgotten note in the grand history we build for the future of our great Empire.

Imperial Navy
Service, Fealty, Fidelity

The Imperial Navy is the Galactic Empire's formidable presentation of power throughout the Galaxy. Plying the stars to patrol and defend the Empire's borders while striking forth in exploration of the unknown to advance the cause of prosperity. But most important of all is the role of Space Superiority in the utter pacification of the Empire's enemies may they be foreign or domestic.

The primary goal and mission of the Imperial Navy is the absolute dominance of known space.

Naval Command - The operational brain of the Imperial Starfleet. All commands come from the top echelons down to the Fleets. This is where entire wars are strategized for and overseen.

Imperial 1st Fleet - The core defensive front of the Empire and the most vigilant symbol of power. Primary mission is to defend the Imperial Core Worlds and Bastion.

Imperial 2nd Fleet - Guardian of the Interior. With the ever present need to police and command order throughout the Imperial Territories and Holdings the 2nd Fleet is designated for primary pacification and maintaining order throughout Imperial Space.

Imperial 3rd Fleet - Vanguard Fleet of the Navy. The Outer Rim Territories are a lawless realm, however, the Empire is ever vigilant and the 3rd Fleet holds the formidable task of patrolling the Rim Region while remaining stalwart along the Imperial Southern Border to keep the treacherous Galactic Alliance in check. Recently with the Sith Resurgence the 3rd is also tasked with keeping a weather eye upon Sith Space.

Imperial Auxiliary - Support forces for the supply and operation of the Imperial Fleets. No particular jurisdiction and the behind-the-scenes men and women of the Navy that keep the whole show moving forward.

Inquisitorius

Truth, Justice, Vigilance

Harnessing the unfathomable energies commonly known as "The Force", Inquisitorius is the Empire's premier regiment of Force Sensitive operatives within its borders. Whether maintaining tranquility in domestic spheres, or striking out against foreign aggressors, Inquisitorius fights to preserve stability and transparency within and around Imperial Space.

The primary goal of Inquisitorius is the defense of Imperial citizenry, as well as the investigation, and situational termination of independent Force-based powers within the Empire.

Charter of the Imperial Inquisition
Article I: The Inquisitor's Creed

The Inquisitorius branch will be known and upheld as a quasi-civil institution, in so far that it will be held responsible to, and provide services to both the Imperial Military and the commonwealth of Imperial citizens. Unlike the Imperial Knights, whose first and primary loyalty is to the Throne itself, Imperial Inquisitors will henceforth be bound in service to the preservation of order, execution of justice, and the staunch protection of life and liberty in the interest of all peoples of the Empire. Though Inquisitors may be called upon to assist in martial efforts across Imperial territory, the aforementioned directives are to remain tantamount to all others.[/center][/center]


Article II: The Inquisitorius Hierarchy

In the interests of efficient and fluid autonomy, the leadership of Inquisitorius will be split into two distinct sub-branches. The first of these, the military branch, shall be headed by a military director appointed by the Admiralty. The director will be chiefly responsible for allocating resources and funding for Inquisitorius operations, overseeing administrative assets, working with High Command to delegate missions to Inquisitors, and to check the influence and powers of the Grand Inquisitor. The director will be supported in their endeavors by select army, naval, and security bureau staff.

Second, in the interest of regulating and understanding the abilities of Inquisitors and their potential to serve the Empire, a single subject will be assigned the rank of Grand Inquisitor. This designation shall be determined hereafter on a board of inquiry by academic specialists and the Admiralty. The Grand Inquisitor stands not only as the pinnacle of the Inquisitor program, but its overseer, mentor, and arbiter in all matters relating to the status and active duty of Inquisitors at all times. In internal matters the Grand Inquisitor may act with full authority. Regarding external affairs or assignments however, the Grand Inquisitor must reach an agreement on logistics and the nature of any mission in quorum with the military director.


Article III: The Power and Ordinance of Inquisitors

The rank and file of the Inquisitors shall be split into three echelons. In ascending order, these are Inquisitor, High Inquisitor, and Grand Inquisitor. It shall be understood that, unless provided temporary rank on assignment, an Inquisitor will be recognized at rank of Senior Lieutenant. Similarly, a High Inquisitor shall be seen synonymous with the rank of Commander, and the Grand Inquisitor as a Captain of the Line. At any given time, Inquisitors may requisition munitions, supplies, and assisting staff at any time before and during assignments, and may make use of any and all equipment so long as their use has been sanctioned by the Grand Inquisitor.


Article IV: Inquisitorius Funding and Facilities

Funding for the Inquisitorius branch will be fixed at a set budget by a panel appointed by High Command and or the Admiralty. Provisional funds may be awarded or augmented at a later time on request by the acting military director. The Citadel Inquisitorius on Prakith shall serve as the primary headquarters for all Inquisitor functions. Concurrently, a field office will be established on Bastion, and further stations may be constructed on key worlds with approval by the funding panel and the initiative of the acting director.


Article V: The Acquisition of Inquisitors and Prospective Assets

Among the duties of the Grand Inquisitor shall be the active assessment and evaluation of potential recruits. For the sake of removing matters of faith and fantasy from the branch, the abilities of Inquisitors and hopeful members will be designated as Metaphysical Aptitude or MA. At the discretion of the Grand Inquisitor, a litmus for MA will be established and carried out in order to determine the nature and potency of applicants for the role of Inquisitor. Similarly, the acting director will martial resources to locate and identify persons of MA and invite them to apply for a position with the branch. It should be duly noted that coercion of any sort will not be employed in acquiring assets.


Article VI: Training of Inquisitors

High Command acknowledges the extreme lethality and danger associated with certain metaphysical skills. To that end, descriptions of acceptable and appropriate skills will be compiled into a compendium by the acting director and the Grand Inquisitor such that the broader security of the Empire and its people are guaranteed. The compendium will serve as essential literature for Inquisitors, and may be edited in the future with a mutual understanding between the acting director and the Grand Inquisitor. The Grand and High Inquisitors may take novice Inquisitors under their wing as pupils for the sake of proliferating knowledge and building experience at any time and for any agreed duration. However, the powers to promote a Inquisitor to the rank of High Inquisitor lies solely with the Grand Inquisitor.
