| Yet, this heightened sense of purpose was not enough for the self-appointed Emperor of the Cocytus System, Braecen Kaeth. With his wide-sweeping advancements - for better or ill - he seized control of the Naval Forces of the Clan, forcing them to defer to his Right-Hand, the Grand Marshal, and the combined, entrusted Leaders of the Royal Clan.

Then Quaestor of [[Caliburnus]] and Surface Marshal, [[Thran Occasus]], pleaded for an Imperial structure for future development and advancement within the Fleet. His counsel was not refused, thus the Sith's hand still factors heavily into the current mold of the Scholae Palatinae Naval Forces. | | Yet, this heightened sense of purpose was not enough for the self-appointed Emperor of the Cocytus System, Braecen Kaeth.

The Fleet of Scholae Palatinae is the force of starships tasks with the defense of the House and all of her.
History
The Fleet of Scholae Palatinae is the Clan's primary defense against rivals and usurpers of their fraction of space known as the Cocytus System. The Fleet has been compiled since the days when the Clan was originally a House under the military regime known as the Emperor's Hammer. Though those original ships have been either retired, dismantled or destroyed - the original vessels began a long, proud heritage of Naval Command under the banner of Clan Scholae Palatinae.
Thus, when the Dark Brotherhood broke away from their oppressor, and the Royal Clan was able to assume control of the Cocytus System's inhabitants through a show of force. Shortly thereafter, the ground forces were able to establish control of the System's government by capturing the capitol upon the surface of Judecca. Yet, this amazing feat could not have been achieved without the blockade and bombardment provided by the Clan's Fleet.
Many changes have come to the fleet, mostly additions during the time of peace through the Galaxy; however, many skirmishes and space defense scenarios have threatened the existence of elements in the Fleet. But great stability was found during the rule of the Clan's Consul Timbal, whom was passionate about the maintenance and command of the Clan's warships. Under his steady hand and all-knowing gaze, the Fleet of Scholae Palatinae established a sense of duty, hard work ethics and unbreakable stratagems to ensure the defense of the Royal Clan.
Yet, this heightened sense of purpose was not enough for the self-appointed Emperor of the Cocytus System, Braecen Kaeth. With his wide-sweeping advancements - for better or ill - he seized control of the Naval Forces of the Clan, forcing them to defer to his Right-Hand, the Grand Marshal, and the combined, entrusted Leaders of the Royal Clan. But a sole voice cried out, insisting that the Naval Forces act as an independent military structure when need be. Then Quaestor of Caliburnus and Surface Marshal, Thran Occasus, pleaded for an Imperial structure for future development and advancement within the Fleet. His counsel was not refused, thus the Sith's hand still factors heavily into the current mold of the Scholae Palatinae Naval Forces.
After massive losses sustained by all of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood's fleets in the Eighth Great Jedi War, steps were taken to recoup the losses. Then High Admiral Timbal helped the Consul in the bid to replenish the Clan's Fleet, successfully acquiring three heavy cruisers, the Renown, the Relentless and the Repulse, two Imperial II-class Star Destroyers and a relatively new design of star destroyer, the Nebula-class.
The Nebula-Class Star Destroyer would be appointed as the flagship of the Clan's fleet, and would be named for the Victory-Class Star Destroyer which was once the Fleet's flagship, the Excidium. The Excidium II would be put to use soon enough, with the Ninth Great Jedi War taking center stage in the Brotherhood.
The two Imperial II-class Star Destroyers to be acquired via Operation: Strike Back, named Warspite and Indomitable, would be the primary attacking force for the Clan as they assisted the Dark Council in the retaking of Antei from Omancor Crask. While both vessels bombarded specific targets, softening them for the attacking ground forces, the Warspite dropped troop carriers and drop ships almost constantly during the first few hours of the attack.
All the vessels of the Fleet fought admirable, with special honors being awarded to the Captains of the three Star Destroyers of the Fleet for their presence under fire. For their efforts in the Ninth Great Jedi War, the Clan was awarded with two Escort Carriers, named Subjugator and Afflicition, and four Corellian Gunships, named Dauntless, Conqueror, Tenacious and Pinnacle.
In 33 ABY, the fleet structure was examined by top military officials and altered to fit the times, as well as the newly acquired support vessels. It is the hope that this powerful fighting force will keep House Scholae Palatinae safe, and maintain it's power amongst the Houses.
Structure & Ranks
Structure
The command structure, or element breakdown, of the Fleet of Scholae Palatinae complies with Imperial Naval Forces criteria. With a single exception, the term fleet is all encompassing for the total sum of all ships serving under the Scholae Palatinae banner. As such, the collective identity of the entire House Naval Forces falls under the official title: Fleet of Scholae Palatinae.
Because the Navy is made of such a large number of ships and personnel, it must be organized into units, each with its own leaders and reporting structure. Each unit—whether it’s a battlegroup or line was created to respond to any mission, regardless of size or complexity.
