The Envoy Corps is a diplomacy-focused society responsible handling the Brotherhood's efforts to build a positive image on the greater stage of the Galaxy. While it might look like a public-relations gambit by the Brotherhood, the Council has put their full weight and support behind the Envoy Corps altruistic and philanthropic endeavors.

Guided by the Exarch, the Envoy Corps accepts and assigns out contracts in the form of operations, bounties and missions that benefit communities, cultures, and systems that are in need of resources and support. This outreach initiative operates for the betterment of the Brotherhood's reputation among rival organizations and to cement their position of power beyond the Unknown Regions, all while bridging relationships between the Council and the Clans.

History

Exarch Marick wearing the Envoy Threads uniform with Golden Envoy Glasses and Badge.

As the Brotherhood looked to rebuild its image as a powerful organization in the Unknown Regions that was unafraid to stand up to the likes of the Children of Mortis, Grand Master Evant Taelyan green lit a new initiative proposed by former High Councilor Alethia Archenksova in 40 ABY. This initiative would serve multiple purposes, with the primary being the improvement of the The Council's reputation with the seven Clans and their respective allies. Parallel in importance was the Brotherhood's image to both rivals and potential trade partners which, in theory, would lead to more opportunities for cementing their seat of power and the growth of commerce.

Alethia was appointed as the Brotherhood's first Exarch, and laid the foundation that would lead to eventual codification of the Envoy Corps.

When Archenksova was elevated to the Council role of Headmistress, she called upon a trusted college who been consulting remotely until that point. So it was that retired Voice of the Brotherhood - Marick Tyris Arconae - took over as the new Exarch. Tyris leveraged his extensive experience and background in overseeing the restructuring of the Inquisitorius, his respect with the active Council members aiding in clearing the administrative and technical hurdles required to bring the Envoy Corps to life.

With the Envoy Corps undertaking its first missions, Marick has begun to organize and deploy Brotherhood members and personnel.

	Name: Charon Reddick Position: Concierge Faction: Envoy Corps [ Character Sheet]

Having "retired" from active service as a Grand Inquisitor, Charon came out of retirement to help aid Exarch Marick Tyris Arconae in bolstering Envoy Corps operations. The two shared a long history working together in the Inquisitorius while Marick was serving as Voice. This relationship made it easy for Marick to trust Charon with being the "face" of the Envoy Corps as its "Concierge".
