Imperial Special Operations

The Imperial Special Operations is a branch of the Armed Forces of the Imperial Kingdom, but is not overseen or commanded by Imperial High Command and instead is led by the Headmaster of Atlas Academy, that currently being James Ironwood.

The official purpose of the branch is to recruit graduate Huntsmen from the Huntsman Academies on Remnant, though this action had drawn criticisms since the idea of the four Huntsmen Academies were that all Huntsmen would not have their allegiance tied to a specific Kingdom, however, because the Imperial Kingdom was ruled secretly by the Sith, these criticisms fell on deaf ears. In actuality, the branch is used by Salem as a means to ensure that her Sith do not stray far from her idealogy, to avoid another Sith civil war as the one several millennia prior. Graduate Huntsmen that joined would be converted into Sith Huntsmen—agents of the Dark Side to do Salem's bidding and ensuring her rule over the world did not break.
