The Dlarit Special Operations Group, more commonly known simply as D-SOG, is the Dlarit Corporation's external hazard intervention, espionage, intelligence and logistics unit. It serves as the special forces and army counterpart to the domestic security provided by the Dlarit Security Force. D-SOG is led by the commander general who heads the Department of Defense.

D-SOG is fully aware that their masters are Sith unlike the Dlarit Police. They undergo conditioning to ensure their loyalty, and those that do not make the cut, are busted down to the Police.

D-SOG also provides a direct cover for the members of Clan Naga Sadow within the other facets of the Dlarit Corporation by virtue of D-SOG's senior status among the corporation's various subsidiaries.

History

The original reason for Dlarit Special Operation Group's establishment in the early part of 28 ABY was due to the failures on the DSF's part to be able to both police the corporation's assets and handle matters of external security. In truth D-SOG was conceived following the defeat at the Battle of Antei in 27 ABY.

When the corporation's owners true identity was compromised during the Yuuzhan Vong attack mass panic broke out among the troops and only the impending doom staved off a total mutiny. This served to highlight the urgent need for a unit aware of the true nature of the corporation's owners and in early 28 ABY with the drafting of Executive Order 28-021, more commonly known as the Orian System Security Act, a section of the DSF was consolidated into a single unit to become D-SOG.

Unlike the Dlarit Police a decision was made not to subdivide D-SOG on the understanding a consolidated structure would provide more security and limit the chance of leaks.

Organization

The Dlarit Special Operations Group is organised into Garrisons. There is the Tarthos and Aeotheran Garrisons, which obviously are reactionary garrisons for anything that the DSF can not handle. The Sepros Garrison is the main mobile unit, which can be moved around where needed. For quick and easy deployments, there are two Rapid Force teams, that can be deployed instantly and also a small garrison of troops aboard the Final Way.

D-SOG provides its troops and pilots to the Dlarit Navy. D-SOG does utilise a ranking structure similar to the Imperial ranking system, as follows.

Dark Jedi Commanders

The members of D-SOG are aware their leaders are Force adepts. They may not be fanatical Sith cultists but they are loyal to their commanders and respect the clan's vision to re-establish a stronger government. The members of D-SOG may not truly understand the difference between Jedi and the Sith but they recognize the clan are prepared to take action against such threats as the Yuuzhan Vong while the Jedi sit and watch.

All Disciples of Sadow receive a commission within D-SOG regardless of whether or not they wish to assume military duties. Journeymen receive the rank of subcommander to recognize them as members of D-SOG, although subcommanders have little real power. More senior journeymen receive the rank of lieutenant commander. Knights earn the rank of commander which is not to be confused with the navy rank. The rank of commander confers limited powers. Equites are afforded the rank of senior commander, bestowing them with wider powers than ordinary commanders. Finally, elders receive the rank of marshal commander, granting them further authority beyond that of a senior commander. It has also been known for Sons of Sadow in the upper tier of the Equite class to hold this rank as well.

Prefects

Prefects
Marshal Commander	Senior Commander	Commander	Lt Commander (Defunct)	Subcommander (Defunct)

In addition to the main ranks, D-SOG also appoints prefects to serve as military governors of certain sites. Prefects retain their existing rank and are recognized by the yellow square they attach their their rank bar. Head of the entire special operations group is the commander general. The commander general may promote members of the clan beyond their normal rank and it is common for journeymen to be promoted to commander ahead of completing their trials.

Special Forces

D-SOG is often required to conduct tasks such as espionage and low key insertions both of which are alien to the Dlarit Security Forces. Due to the diversity of these operations all D-SOG Garrisons have special forces units attached, so such missions can be conducted.

The smallest special forces unit is a squad of four Commandos which is usually deemed sufficient to support a company of 144 regular soldiers. One commando in each squad is designated as its sergeant. Commandos receive superior training to regular soldiers and are issued with better gear. In addition to the regular commando squads there are a handful of advanced commandos. Officially known as Delta-class Advanced Commandos, otherwise known as DACs, are designed to operate indepedently of support and receive superior training and equipment to ordinary commandos. There are only a 3 DAC troopers in active service with only thirty four in the initial batch. There is one DAC trooper per garrison as the Garrison Commander, but the Sepros Garrison DAC trooper, is the Commander of all the garrisons.
