The Imperial Scholae Guard (ISG) is the main branch of the Scholae Palatinae Military responsible for land-based military operations. It is made up of the most advanced soldiers of the Cocytus System. The ISG is headed by the Grand Marshal with support from top military officers from within its organization. With vast experience, ability and potential in the field of battle that very few military powers can rival, the ISG prowess has solidified the Scholae Palatinae claim as one of the militant pillars of the Dark Brotherhood.
History
History is not entirely accurate, as the founder of the Clan has long since embarked on a journey with an end unknown, but scrolls seemingly indicate a large deposit of soldiers were granted by the Emperor Palpatine to a devoted task force of guardians: Scholae Palatinae (The Palace Guard). These warriors were instituted to act as mystic extensions of the Dark Lord of the Sith. Additionally, they were tasked not only with executing his will, but safeguarding the Dark Lord. So, in his divine wisdom, he entrusted his Sentinels with the authority to command. With his downfall, upon the planet Byss, these soldiers swore fealty to the former Clan - becoming their personal guardians... the extension of Scholae Palatinae's will.
With their departure from dark lands, they became a solidified House within the Emperor's Hammer; acting as the Guardians of the Grand Master. However, the Dark Brotherhood broke away from the oppressive Emperor's Hammer - thus, the defenders of the Grand Master sought out a new home. Making peace within the Cocytus System, on the planet Judecca, where they have have continually added to their elements, both soldiers and officers. They are the military backbone of the House
Organization
The command structure, or element breakdown, of the Imperial Scholae Guard complies with Imperial Armed Forces criteria. With a single exception, the term battalion is instead replaced with the Royal Title of Legion. The identity of many components adopt this nomenclature.
Because the army is made of such a large number of soldiers, it must be organized into units, each with its own leaders and reporting structure. Each unit, whether it’s a squad or division, was created to respond to any mission, regardless of size or complexity.
