  Spoiler

  
• Description: The Elysium Intelligence Agency is an internal and external intelligence organization created to spy on enemies of The Empire and monitor internal and external threats.

GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

• Headquarters: Spindle VI
• Domain: They have a heavy presence in Elysium Territory, but their domain extends to territory surrounding The Empire in the southern Mid Rim, and southern Outer Rim. Agents often work in hostile or foreign territory, though their presence in these territories is not constant, and is always changing depending on the situation.
• Notable Assets: N/A

SOCIAL INFORMATION

• Hierarchy:
  • The King: The ultimate authority
  • First Agent: The Head of The Elysium Intelligence Agency.
  • Provincial Agents: Provincial Agents are the heads of an entire planets' intelligence sector.
  • Sector Agents: Sector Agents oversee a single zone of a planet....for example a sector agent may oversee all operations on Theed, Naboo.
  • Agents: Agents are the men and women on the ground, the most common and most vital rank.

• Membership: Only the best are allowed into The EIA, usually those with military or engineering backgrounds are allowed in. Recruits are mostly recruited in the same place where they will serve, and most recruits were already working for The Empire before the EIA was formed. Each member takes a loyalty oath and a political science test which they must pass.

• Climate: Members are almost always casual, posing as "the average Joe". Only those within the agency, and the extraordinarily observant will know if they are in the presence of an agent. When interacting with one another, agents are very professional.

• Reputation: The EIA would be a myth if not for the official announcement by Rex Valhoun. The organization is new but many members are veterans. Since the formation of The Empire, agents have been across the galaxy, raising support for The Empire and reporting on any significant events.

• Curios: Every agent has a lion tattoo on the back of their shoulder.

• Rules: Agents must never give their identity or affiliation away. Agents must always obey orders.

• Goals: Monitor Internal and External threats, spy on hostile nations at the planetary level.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Since the formation of The Elysium Empire, it has had supporters throughout the galaxy. These supporters often provided King Heath Valhoun with reports, giving vital information about enemy forces, economic situations, etc. In fact this is how The Empire knew when to attack The Agents of Chaos.

When Rex Valhoun took the throne, he made this intelligence network an official organization, recruiting the most loyal and promoting the most talented spies. While he didn't reveal their names, locations, etc. for obvious reasons, he did announce the official formation of The Elysium Intelligence Agency to the galaxy.

Under Review Rex Valhoun

We have a few things to clear up here before approval.

• Image Credit: Direct image links are not acceptable in the Codex; we need a link to the page where the image was found, preferably crediting the originally artist whenever possible.

• Links: "The Elysium Empire" is not actually linked in this section, it's just normal text. Please link it.

• Organization Symbol: Not a deal-breaker, but I'm a bit confused by the bottom text on the symbol. Is the Elysium Empire now also identifying as the Galactic Empire?

• Headquarters: Please provide a link to Spindle VI.

• Domain: It would improve your submission to expand on this section. I'm assuming that "Everywhere" means they are active across the galaxy, though it would be helpful to clarify that. The Hierarchy section implies that there are agents who oversee individual sectors full of agents on every planet where the agency operates. It seems unlikely that any intelligence organization can have dozens of agents on every single planet in the galaxy; are there regions where the EIA has a strong presence, versus areas where its presence is limited?

• Notable Assets: This intelligence agency has no safehouses, no notable headquarters, no important ships, nothing?

Please reach out with any questions or if you need any assistance.

Did all the edits except the symbol and the Notable Assets. I left Notable assets out because we currently don't have any specialized submissions for the EIA to use. I'll eventually pull this submission for edits, once we have a considerable amount of subs for them.

As for the symbol, Rex Valhoun proclaimed The Elysium Empire as "The Galactic Empire" in his inauguration, and he's working on making it more like the old empire, so yes to answer your question However nobody has to accept that. There could be 50 Galactic Empires...we're just one of them.

Edits look good to me. For future reference, Notable Assets don't have to be Codex or Factory subs. Simple narrative descriptions are fine.

Approved.
