The Scholae Palatinae Military is the collection of the Armed Forces of Scholae Palatinae and consists of all elements necessary to help ensure the security of all House assets and interests. It is headed by the Emperor of the Cocytus System and Quaestor of the House, and has five major subordinate elements: Imperial Scholae Guard, Marines of Scholae Palatinae, The Fleet of Scholae Palatinae, Scholae Palatinae Fighter Corps and Imperial Scholae Intelligence.
History
After the Reclamation of Judecca, Scholae Palatinae took many losses in the areas of personnel and equipment, so the Summit saw fit to recruit new troops and refit old machinery to compete in today’s galactic warfare. Under the direction of the Supreme Commander of Military Forces, Phoenix Olkyssagh Palpatine; and his Grand Marshal, Lucien Kaeth; the military was reorganized into a cohesive unit, with each sub unit having a very defined mission and purpose.
Chain of Command
The Emperor has the highest authority over the Scholae Palatinae Military, while the Grand Marshal is the principal assistant in all these same matters. Together they exercise control over the entire military down through the respective War Councilor of the different major subordinate elements. Each individual element performs their duties and carries out orders under authority, direction and control of its respective War Councilor.
