abstract
| - Central Command Operatives are specialized internal security agents of the Sith Empire. Their roots lie in the Sith'ari Centrality, where they made their name, but they have been drastically expanded in recent months and given jurisdiction over the entire Sith Empire. Their mandate is threefold:
* When Jedi cross the border of the Sith Empire, it is the CCOs' role to greet them, inform them of all pertinent laws (including laws against assault, brandishing weapons in public, threats, slander and vigilantism), and make it clear that Jedi jurisdiction and mandate ends at the border. They are also responsible for ensuring that Jedi keep said laws, through surveillance and corrective action. In all respects the CCOs' behaviour must be beyond reproach as agents of law. Summary capital punishment is itself a crime.
* The CCOs are responsible for police actions involving Sith and other Force-users within the Sith Empire. They are empowered to investigate and arrest any Force-user other than significant power players and those operating on their direct orders. If serious law-and-order or public relations issues arise involving those power players, the issue will be discussed between them, the Sith High Council, and the senior officers of the CCOs.
* The CCOs may assist internal security forces, including police and counterintelligence divisions, when called upon. According to the will of Lord Koss, they may also assist in some military operations. For example, CCOs served at the Battle of Mon Calamari, and played a key role in the Battle of Arcanix. They have also supported the military in the conflict on Runnel for some time.
* Additionally, when seconded by influential Sith Lords, CCOs can fill specialized, often secret functions. For example, both Guardsman Anrakk and Lord Ahkris rely on teams of CCOs.
