With the restoration of Scholae Palatinae to Clan status, House Imperium was formed to further the goals of the Emperor and the Empire within the Cocytus System. Imperial to the core, each member of the House serves the Empire in a secondary capacity such as in the military, intelligence agency, or the bureaucracy that keeps the Empire going on a daily basis.

History

Foundation

At the end of Darth Ashen's reign, Emperor Xen formed two Houses that would embody the spirit of the Empire itself. One of the Houses would be known as Excidium. The other House would be known as Imperium. Respectively, one to protect the Empire and strike from the shadows, the other to be the Empire itself and to run it in the light. The first Jarl Imperius of House Imperium was Kell Dante, while the first Skald Imperius was Zagro Fenn. By the order of Emperor Xen, the headquarters of the Clan was placed on the March Isles in the northern hemisphere of Judecca.

As a testament to the strength of the House, it was given its first task. When the Entanglements uprising broke out on Ptolomea, the House Imperium was sent to put it down alongside House Excidium. After the uprising, interstellar pirates had attacked both Clans Scholae Palatinae and Naga Sadow. House Excidium excelled at the task. But this only showed what House Imperium was meant for. The Emperor cannot be bothered with every single need and duty of the civilian and military population. This is why Imperium exists. To deal with these as an extension of the Emperor. It was also around this time that Shadow Guard was formed, which was used for stealth attacks and protection of the House Leadership.

Consolidation

Under the Quaestors Kell Dante and then Lexiconus Qor, House Imperium saw the itself grow in experience and in purpose. During the Forgotten Campaign, Kell Dante lead the House in a great battle against the Pacre Datship followers and their false Emperor. With the Judeccan Abyssal eventually attacking Ohmen, Lexiconus took it upon himself to head off the destruction of the monster. In the eyes of the Emperor and the stepping down of Kell Dante as Quaestor, Lexiconus took on the face of leader of the House.

In the position of Quaestor, Lexiconus Qor brought out a new age of reform for the House, solidifying offices and organizing the Imperial ideology under his command. With the aid of a few trusted advisors, the Imperial War Office and Imperial Resource Center became united organizations under his reign, while the Imperial Academy of Judecca expanded its reach into the House, Clan, and Cocytus System itself. By the will of the Emperor, House Imperium and other elements carried out the dismantling of the nobility systems in the Clan, placing the money back into the hands of the people and the government and boosting the general happiness of the citizens. These reforms were even tested by the Emperor in his own gauntlet, pitting members against each other (the above ground elements of the Clan versus the secretive elements of the Clan). In the end, Imperium conquered the other elements within the Clan and cemented itself as a legitimate and reformed House.

Government and Leadership

House Imperium is a semi-dictatorial military scientific meritocracy. In Imperium, those who do well will exceed. Thus, House Imperium exceeds at many things, two of which are major; science and military. The system is only semi-dictatorial because the Emperor leads the entire Clan and under him are the two Houses. Also, there is a civilian advisory parliament which exists in name and slight function only. They ultimately serve the needs of the Empire.

The Quaestor is the planetary governor. He is also the epitome of Imperial ideals in public life and heads up the Imperial War Office from which he or she rules. The Quaestor also aids Imperial Scholae Intelligence and the Grand Marshal in times of need and reports directly to the Grand Marshal and Emperor. The Aedile is the planetary Chief of Operations. They lead the Imperial Resource Center and represent what the Empire could become one day in the future (always looking to it). They also directly link with the System Moff in dealing with day to day issues and economics. The Battle-Team Leader leads Shadow Guard, the main battle team for House Imperium. The BTL is also the Chief of Training for the Imperial Academy of Judecca and secretly works alongside UNKNOWN in times of need for both. Also, he or she is the hidden liaison for the shadow Imperial Scholae Intelligence program within the Imperial Academy.

Military

The military for House Imperium is backed up by the Clan military with the exception of the Imperial Guard stationed on the planet as well as Shadow Guard, which is a recognized and feared elite military group designed to defend the seemingly open House from outside threats. Shadow Guard specializes in protecting House Imperium Leadership and carrying out attacks as a stealth infiltration and special forces unit. Imperium, being at the forefront of the Imperial message and ideology, is plotted at the training ground for the Imperial futures of the Clan, as well as the shadowy undertones of the Imperial Senate. The military itself is done first by willing conscription, but then allows people to choose civilian or military life (most remaining in some capacity within the military).

Also, the Military Academy, Flight School, and Diplomatic Studies are all part of the Imperial Academy of Judecca, which is lead by the Battle-Team Leader, leader of the covert Shadow Guard, and Chief of Training for the Academy.

Military Academy

The Imperial Academy of Judecca is first and foremost a military training ground for those who wish to serve in the military in a plethora of differing positions and infantry tasks. This is also the main recruitment center for the System's population. Those who wish the serve the Empire and its Emperor dutifully come join the ranks of the military academy and train to serve the Clan Dominion.

Flight School

Much like the Military Academy, the Flight School serves the same purpose but for flying ships both large and small for many different purposes. The difference being that eventual trainees end up going to starships and capital ships to complete their training and graduation. The Flight School also occasionally leads pilots to UNKOWN, where advanced fighters complete training. This information is not well known, however.

Diplomatic Studies/ISI Shadow Program

House Imperium is also charged with the diplomacy of the Clan. Make no mistake, there is a diplomatic component to Clan Scholae Palatinae, and it does exist in a small vacuum to present the most objective organization as possible. However, recruits who project a savvy in specialized manners such as charisma, agency, technology, and other intelligent topics are recruited into the Imperial Scholae Intelligence shadow program (sometimes unknowingly only to be revealed later). Thus, the program serves a dual function; to protect the diplomatic interests of the Empire, and to protect and gain intelligence of the Empire (centered from House Imperium).

Praetorian Guard of Judecca

The Praetorian Guard of Judecca is ultimately under the review of the Field Marshal, Surface Marshal, Grand Marshal, and the Emperor himself. However, when it is not a time of Clan-wide war, the Praetorian Guard is mostly kept under the power of the Jarl Imperius. They protect the planet from major and minor threats, and are stationed to keep relative peace on Judecca itself. This portion of the military ultimately comes from the Clan, but is given to Judecca for that exact purpose.

Civilian Police Force

Made up of volunteers and weaker military personnel, the Civilian Police Force does little that the Praetorian Guard of Judecca already does. However, they serve as a way for people to join the Imperial system and feel like they are contributing to the great Empire itself. The Civilian Police Force promotes patriotism, superiority, and an interstellar Imperial identity. It allows people to do basic detective and protection work, and is a close reminder of the watchful eyes of the Emperor. In times of war though, the CPF becomes significantly less useable. When military with their more inclined individuals comes through to wipe the floors clean of the negative elements, it reinforces the necessity of the Empire and the need for a temporary Civilian Police Force. The personnel trained for the CPF come from the March Isles as well, although different smaller training facilities exist in different parts of the system (with a focus on the different aspects of the land as well).

Shadow Guard

Shadow Guard trains in a secret base close to or around the March Isles. It is a recognized and feared, elite, military unit designed to defend the seemingly open House from internal and external threats. It specializes in protecting House Imperium Leadership and carrying out attacks as a stealth infiltration and special forces unit. Civilians and average military personnel are not chosen for this group. Only those from the Clan with proven skill are chosen, and are given responsibility to carry out the covert operations. Shadow Guard is the Clan and House name for the organization.

Economics

The economic aspects of the House are two-fold. One aspect is the larger Clan as a whole. Judecca is one of two major Clan trading points for other Clans and other groups of people or interested parties. Thus, House Imperium becomes one of those trading hubs, and Clan trading goes through House Imperium. The second aspect is the Center for Economics and Imperial Development, a sub organization of the Imperial Resource Center (headed by the Skald Imperius, Chief of Operations and Diplomacy). This organization is the corporate liaison for all business in the Clan Dominion as well as the lead officer for development of both infrastructure and economics in the region.

Clan Trade

The Clan has two major exports, and other imports that are more specialized. The House Imperium helps in the export of theoretical knowledge, and we help the Clan trade in different steels. These steels help compose much of the blaster components, vehicles, starfighters, and buildings. In terms of theoretical knowledge, it includes Scholae's ambitious scientific division as well as basic military tactics, formations, and strategies (at least ones that are willing to be departed with).

The more specialized imports (as in beyond the usual raw materials and such), is outer agricultural needs and things that a freer society might have that the Empire itself does not. The known list is not public knowledge.

Center for Economics and Imperial Development

The Center for Economics and Imperial Development (also known as the CEID) is a large organization tasked with the operation of trade within Imperial territory. The CEID has representatives in every corporation and those corporations report directly to the CEID. However, they ultimately are in direct control of the CEID, although the illusion of self governance is maintained for the greater well being of the people and their own prosperity House Imperium leads the administration of this organization, which is also ultimately under the Imperial Resource Center (controlled by the Skald Imperius).

The CEID also promotes smaller business practice and self business practice with the options to grow into larger economic powerhouses, or be bought up for large sums of money. This allows the CEID to remain in control of the economy without sacrificing individual ideas that one might usually accidentally oppress in a larger government.

Imperial Ideology

House Imperium is the ideological center of the Clan. While UNKNOWN serves as the guard and Main Fleet of the Clan, always in hiding and in cells all around the Cocytus System, Imperium serves as the forefront of what the Clan is and always will be; an mostly self-contained Empire. There are ways the people are kept in line and ways the Clan makes this happen. There are also ideological backdrops that service what the House is to the larger Clan and what Imperium wishes to accomplish.

Society of Imperial Research and Development

The Society of Imperial Research and Development (also known as SIRD) is an organization devoted to scientific discovery and application of scientific principles within the House and greater Clan. Not only are they the leaders of their respective fields, but they also provide ethical procedures in which to practice their fields. SIRD is what every citizen should strive to be; an intelligent and open-minded person in the fields of science, with a loyalty and dedication to service of the Empire. House Imperium is responsible for the administration of this organization, which is also under the Imperial Resource Center.

Imperial News Agency

The Imperial News Agency is one of the most important and widespread civilian organizations within the Cocytus System. Reporters, Editors, Writers, and Admin staff work around the clock to create quality material ready for dissemination by the public. They control the holovids, the holopapers, radio, viewscreens, and other such activities meant for viewing work and pleasure. They also offer the best services from outside the Cocytus system, that go through quality assurance providers to make sure the material is up to Imperial standards. House Imperium provides the resources and extensions necessary to carry out the message of the Emperor and his War Advisors. The INA is also under the Imperial Resource Center.

Imperial War Office

From the front lines of war to the logistical backdrops of small Cainan ice villages, the Imperial War Office has a hold. The Jarl Imperius controls this prestigious office in four different ways. Firstly, the IWO is the central nervous system of the Imperial war machine. Every Admiral, every Captain, every soldier, every munitions officer, every combat supplier, and so forth goes through the IWO. Every ship is connected to it, every speeder from it, and every military report has gone through it. It is the home base of battle in the Cocytus system.

Secondly, the IWO has the Imperial Diplomatic Control as a sub organization. This is the central office with embassies from different systems, Clans, and governments represented here and where Imperial diplomats are sent off from themselves. The function of the office is to implement strategy abroad and to serve as masters of economics, psychology, and wellness to our allies, while convincing our enemies that we are not a force to be reckoned with. Our reckoning is their destruction in face of the Emperor alongside his Grand Marshal.

Thirdly, the IWO also is in control of the Imperial Civilian Government. It is an unofficial government set up to allow the people to have a choice in who they wish to advise in some civilian matters dealing with the Empire. Although it has no real power, the power of the ICG lies within the effect it has on any potential for rebellion. Amongst loyal followers, the ICG serves as a place for average citizens to prop up the Emperor and the ideology of the Empire itself even with toxic democratic ideologies in the Empire's midst. The IWO controls the ICG because advice from the ICG is sent to top level civilians in the War Office itself.

Lastly, the Imperial Police Force allows people to interact with the government in a different way. A combination of two major forces, military and civilian, allows the IPF to deal with hard-line cases the military comes across and has to deal with and cases that civilians need on a day to day basis that the military need not directly deal with. The IWO receives all these reports and places them into an intelligence folder that allows the Jarl Imperius to see statistical day to day activity of the populous.

The Imperial War Office is a juggernaut of war and bureaucracy. It is not bogged down though. It is efficient and mathematical. Civilians look up to the office, and the Jarl Imperius who guides it. The office is respected and those civilians who fall into the graces of the Emperor may one day work within the confines of the War Office itself.

Center for History and Artifacts

Clan Scholae Palatinae has a rich antiquity of artifacts, titles, history, and formerly nobility. This form of heraldry needs tight controls and limits in order to function properly within the Clan and House environments. That is why CHA exists; to make sure that the process of this is tracked. The Empire needs the ability to control tradition and art within the dominion as well. Without the history of the Empire, it would certainly fall prey to said history. CHA also checks on outside influences and what they have on the Empire. CHA makes the Empire a marketable place to live to those who might remain unconvinced and they also aid in tourism and the keep up of museums all around the dominion itself.
