The Curtain of Divinity is the secretive organization which serves as the actual power behind the throne of Stel Kesh. Knowledge of the Curtain is carefully guarded, and its membership is even further protected.
History
The Curtain was founded by the Peaceful Princept, after an expedition into the Scutum-Centaurus arm of the galaxy met the True Divine and established the Honourable Oath.
The Curtain was originally established to rein in the Principality’s most tyrannical institutions and encourage growth and equity over generations, while hiding the truth of what lied beyond the Scutum-Centaurus Portcullis. Over time, their more noble aims were eroded, and only this final goal remained, along with a much more selfish goal of controlling the state. Because of this goal, though, the group is currently engaged in a silent war against The Pact of Necessary Venture.
The Curtain keeps a simple, cell-based hierarchy, with individual worlds reporting up to star sectors, which then report up to the highest tier of command.
Tier Ranks
At each tier there may be countless operatives, but each reports to one of five key figures in their tier:
The Silk
Minister in charge of Curtain diplomatic corps. Commands undercover agents who have infiltrated foreign governments.
The Damask
Philosopher, theologian, and scientist whose purview is performing and obtaining heretical and otherwise forbidden material.
The Lace
Marshall in command of the Curtain’s military forces, including reconnaissance and martial saboteur units.
The Linen
Steward, Quartermaster, Armorer, Bookkeeper. In charge of industrial espionage.
The Gabardine
Chief spymaster, keeper of all information, and (traditionally) the executive who proposes large scale, cross-branch action.
Each planet and/or sector has their own chief operatives in these roles, which roll up to the top, Divinity-wide tier. When referenced in speech or text, the operatives use only these titles, e.g. “The Lace of Partizan” or “The Gabardine of Divinity.”
