The Special Forces were composed of some 200 Lovian citizens and was led primarily by individuals with past military experience. The Special Forces possessed a basic rank system, and advanced equipment. While for the most part, they used firearms lent to them by the Lovian Coastal Police, many of the weapons that they fielded were confiscated from the insurrectionists that they had captured during the war. At the end of the conflict, there were only 69 casualties in the Special Forces. Among those serving in the Special Forces was Rosana de Oliveira-Torres, who shortly after was given the position of Federal Police commissioner for her honorable actions.
