History & Background (Dossier)

The Taoiseach was founded by Olav hault-Plankwell during his tenure as commander of the Spinward Marches naval forces. It was originally a covert paramilitary intelligence force comprised of Scout and Marine Commandos. In later years, it became attached to the IISS as a cross-Imperial troubleshooting force. After it was exposed in the late 800s, it was disbanded in 907. The public information-gathering arm is still intact, however, and generates reports on trade and technology from all over the Imperium.

• Rumors that the paramilitary branch still operates are categorically denied by Scout Service administrators.
