The Shadow Force of the Dark Empire is comprised of several sub-guilds, just as the Shadow Force itself is one of many Forces that make up the Dark Empire. This compartmental behavior allows for the members to highly specialize in their particular field of interest.
All Shadow Force sub-guilds are controlled by their guild commanders, who in turn report to the Shadowlord, who is in charge of the force in its entirety.
The facets of the Shadow Force consist of:
The Imperial Diplomatic Service, nicknamed the Envoys, is a guild specializing in diplomatic relations and linguistics for the Empire and the realm. The IDS is tasked with diplomacy, mediation, and communication between the Empire and other external entities. Their services can be employed by any individual or faction that is in good standing with the Dark Empire.
The Shadow Brigade is the martial branch of the Shadow Force, and functions as the internal security and bodyguard unit for the IDS and other Imperial dignitaries. This unit also assists with the Imperial Guard as the situation requires. Their services cannot be employed by any non-Imperial person or persons.
The Imperial Intelligence Agency, otherwise known as the IIA, is another facet of the Shadow Force and specializes in intelligence gathering and reconnaissance work. The membership of this sub-guild, as well as their sources, are a closely held secret. Their services can be employed by any individual or faction that is in good standing with the Dark Empire.
