SECRET INTELLIGENCE SERVICE
FOUNDING DOCUMENT – PARLIAMENT OF BRETONIA

From Right to Left: Intelligence Officer Chelsea Jenkins (Byron), Director Harry Weber (V. Steiner), Unknown Special Aerospace Service (SAS) Operator, Intelligence Officer Hanna Wyghtham (Kara.Heinrich) & Chief of Staff Adrienne Perry (Stolt.)

[Background & History]

After the reformation of the BIS (an act of the Queen, the reasons of which remains classified), the BAF was authorized by the Parliament of Bretonia to explore the possibility of a smaller intelligence agency which would require less funding so that the government could focus funds towards the military and shoring up stockpiles of strategic resources, now that the route to Liberty had been partially cut through for obtaining resources. The BAF created an agency which borrowed trusted officers from the Armed Forces as well as trusted outsiders who would primarily rely on their own influence and resources as the intelligence-collection equivalent of a “force-multiplier” to compensate for the smaller agency and its lower funding than its predecessor.

Once Parliament received the proposal for the creation of such an agency from the BAF|, it amended that the agency would fall under the purview of the Foreign Office while conveniently leaving out who exactly within the Foreign Office was responsible for the agency’s day to day administration and execution of its long term goals. This allowed the agency to retain almost complete independence while also reserving the resources of the MFA to use for the creation of cover identities and falsified travel and diplomatic documents which would assist independent agent operations in setting up assets in foreign houses or uncontrolled space. Through the Chamber of Commerce of the Foriegn Office, their resources were also used to set up shell corporations inside and outside of Bretonia. The agency had just enough government funding that it would remain dependent (and thus loyal) to the Crown, but also relying on the wealth, influence and resources of its independent agents and shell corporations, it achieved the economic freedom to pursue their own projects without the interference of government red tape bureaucracy. This agency was henceforth known as the Secret Intelligence Service, SIS.

SIS, although officially under the Foreign Office, reports to the Queen and the Prime Minister. The name(s) of the Director(s?) remain confidential and are only known to the highest levels of government and as such, even the officers of SIS do not know who the leaders of SIS are. Most run their operations and projects independently whether it’s setting up a shell corporation or recruiting foreign intelligence assets/sources agents. They receiving orders from the top down in addition to running their own operations.

[SIS Hierarchy]

[Directors]:

Harry Weber (Director), Adrienne Perry (Chief of Staff) & Jack Frasier (Liaison from the Bretonian Government), they report directly to the PM and Her Majesty. They are entrusted with the long term goals of the organization and devising a viable intelligence collection strategy.

[Intelligence Officers]*:

Generally taken from the BAF, usually Bretonian citizens these high potential individuals are sought out, vigorously trained in espionage, leadership and other relevant skills and qualifications. They are in charge of developing the overall intelligence network of SIS, recruiting intelligence assets/agents in foreign space, working on their own projects and working on projects handed to them from the top. To an extent, they are also expected to analyse the intelligence they collect with the help of Defence Intelligence Staff.

[Intelligence Assets/Source Agents]*:

Locals or other individuals selected for their potential in espionage, to spy for SIS. They are not official members of SIS, but in general they do work for the SIS officer who recruited and trained them. They have a chance to become officers themselves, with few exceptions (e.g. Outcasts due to their dependence on Cardamine).

*You do not need to become an intelligence asset first in order to become an officer, they are more like different roles.
