Bureau Security Force
“The Bureau Security Force is the wall upon which our enemies break and the hammer with which we crush treason. They do not hide in shadows, for they are the shadow itself made iron, standing where others falter. When they deploy, the galaxy knows that order is not a request, it is an inevitability. They defend what must never fall, and they burn what must never rise again. To the loyal, they are guardians. To the treacherous, they are judgment. To our enemies, they are the certainty of their end. The BSF does not fail, because the wall does not fall, and where the wall stands, so too does the Regime.”
The Bureau Security Force is the paramilitary backbone of the GBA’s internal power. While Sections I–V manipulate intelligence, covertly dismantle threats, and innovate technological supremacy, the BSF serves as the physical embodiment of the Regime’s authority. Their role is not to remain hidden but to project strength, standing openly as the wall that separates order from chaos. They are the soldiers who secure the GBA’s deepest secrets, defend its most valuable facilities, and crush dissent with the force of iron.
Comprised of soldiers drawn from the finest DMDF shock infantry, the BSF is further enhanced through advanced reconditioning and indoctrination. Their training programs forge operatives into living weapons of enforcement, conditioned to execute orders without hesitation and to stand unbroken even against impossible odds. Armed with experimental armor and weaponry, they are prepared to face threats from insurgents, alien forces, or rogue elements with unmatched lethality.
The BSF’s structure reflects its dual nature as both guardian and executioner. Their divisions, Obsidian Guard, Spectral Vanguard, and Onyx Phalanx, each fulfill critical roles: from defending blacksites to purging compromised assets and leading shock assaults. Unlike other divisions that fight for recognition or glory, the BSF fights only to enforce, and their victories are measured not in accolades but in the fear and respect they instill.
Throughout UCG history, the BSF has been at the heart of the most decisive moments of control. Entire rebellions have collapsed at the sound of their march, rogue operatives have vanished under their watch, and enemy factions have witnessed their strongholds shattered by the BSF’s relentless advance. Their presence ensures that the GBA’s order is not merely maintained but imposed, shaping the galaxy’s understanding of what it means to stand against the Regime.
Structure
"Where the GBA’s will must be enforced openly, we stand as the iron wall that does not break."
I. Hierarchical Framework
The Bureau Security Force (BSF) functions as the elite paramilitary enforcement arm of the Galactic Bureau Agency. Unlike the covert operatives of Sections I–V, the BSF operates as a visible instrument of GBA dominance, acting as both military police and rapid-response enforcers. Its hierarchy is designed to combine the precision of intelligencewith the overwhelming power of shock infantry, ensuring that no breach of security, no rebellion, and no threat to GBA authority survives.
The BSF structure is pyramidal and uncompromising, with a clear chain of command:
- Director Primaris: Supreme commander of all BSF operations.
- Directus Department Heads: Elite commanders who oversee specialized operational wings.
- Praetorians: Senior field commanders who lead squads during high-intensity operations.
- Iron Phalanx Troopers: The core of the BSF; heavily armed, augmented, and indoctrinated soldiers.
- Auxilia Operatives: Support personnel including drone controllers, heavy weapons specialists, and cyber-assist units.
This hierarchy ensures absolute command unity, allowing BSF forces to strike with precision and unyielding force.
II. High Command Integration
The BSF operates directly under the authority of the GBA High Command, bypassing civilian oversight and even DMDF command structures when necessary. Its leadership maintains constant communication with the Lord Directorand Section Ø, ensuring its operations align with the highest-level directives of the Regime.
This integration allows the BSF to:
- Deploy anywhere within UCG space without requesting local permissions.
- Assume control of UCG assets, including DMDF installations, if a security compromise is detected.
- Act as the GBA’s visible iron fist, reinforcing the Regime’s presence during purges or political crises.
The BSF’s open visibility contrasts with the shadowy actions of other GBA elements, serving as the public reminder that the Regime’s power is both unseen and unavoidable.
III. Unified Combat Command Integration
While technically independent, the BSF is designed to operate in conjunction with DMDF units during high-threat campaigns. Through Unified Combat Command (UCC) protocols, the BSF can integrate seamlessly into larger war efforts, providing specialized enforcement and security contingents to ensure that GBA interests are preserved on every battlefield.
In unified operations, the BSF:
- Secures black sites and critical GBA research nodes during major conflicts.
- Enforces GBA security doctrine within allied DMDF forces, ensuring doctrinal compliance.
- Serves as the rapid reaction force against internal sabotage, insurgency, or compromised units.
This integration ensures no gap in the Regime’s control, allowing the BSF to operate as both guardian and executioner.
IV. Section Departments
IV. Section Departments
The BSF is divided into specialized departments, each overseen by a Directus who ensures mastery of their operational domain. These departments combine paramilitary discipline with GBA-specific mandates, allowing them to cover every aspect of security enforcement.
- Directus Praesidium – Department of Defense
- The Department of Defense safeguards all critical GBA assets, ranging from blacksites to orbital defense nodes. It embodies the BSF’s role as the unbreakable wall of the Regime.
- Asset Protection: Ensures no enemy infiltration or sabotage breaches GBA installations.
- Fortification Command: Constructs and manages defensive perimeters during crises.
- Rapid Containment: Seals compromised areas before threats escalate.

- Prototype Deployment: Equips BSF units with experimental armaments for field testing.
- Tech Recovery: Secures and integrates captured enemy technologies.
- Cyber-Combat Support: Works alongside Section IV to deploy electronic warfare assets.
V. Doctrinal Philosophy
The BSF’s philosophy is rooted in the doctrine of visible dominance:
- Fear is a weapon: The BSF’s presence is designed to enforce compliance without needing to fire a shot.
- Order is survival: Any breach of control, be it from rebellion, sabotage, or infiltration, is treated as an existential threat.
- The Regime is absolute: Loyalty is not requested but demanded; hesitation is treason.
Their doctrine rejects subtlety when overwhelming force is required. Where other GBA forces manipulate shadows, the BSF arrives like a hammer, breaking resistance so thoroughly that no remnants survive to rebuild.

They are the iron guardians of the GBA’s sanctity, the enforcers of a doctrine that tolerates no weakness, no disloyalty, and no compromise. When they march, worlds remember; when they strike, resistance dies; when they stand watch, no threat dares to rise. The galaxy must know this truth, the BSF is not a deterrent. It is the certainty that no matter the darkness, the Regime’s order will burn through.”
— Lord Director Avery Jackson, Galactic Bureau Agency Overseer
Culture
"The wall does not question why it stands. It simply stands, and nothing passes."
I. Cultural Ethos
The Bureau Security Force (BSF) operates under an ethos of unyielding loyalty, visible authority, and unquestionable enforcement. Members believe they are the last and strongest line of defense against chaos, corruption, and treason. Unlike the covert agents of other GBA sections, BSF personnel embrace their role as a public reminder of the Regime’s dominance. Their presence is intentionally imposing, every armored step declares to allies and enemies alike that the GBA’s law is absolute.
Their ethos can be summarized as:
- Stand Unbreakable: Never retreat, never waver.
- Fear is Power: Use presence and force to enforce order without hesitation.
- The Regime Endures: Loyalty to the UCG supersedes all personal interests.
II. Symbolism and Mythic Identity
The cultural identity of the Bureau Security Force (BSF) is forged in iron, fire, and fear, embodied in their insignia, the Sigil of the Iron Bastion. This black octagon, bearing the image of a white fortress tower wrapped in silver chains, symbolizes the unbreakable wall that shields the Regime and crushes its enemies. The chains represent the binding authority of the GBA, unyielding and absolute, while the bastion itself embodies the immovable strength of the BSF. To their allies, this emblem is a promise of protection; to their enemies, it is a warning of inevitable judgment.
Within their own ranks, BSF soldiers call themselves "The Bastion-Born", a term that reflects their indoctrination as living fortresses of the Regime. They see themselves not as individuals, but as iron sentinels, the walls upon which rebellion breaks. Their identity is one of visible power, unlike other GBA elements that operate in secrecy, the BSF thrives on being seen, standing as an unmistakable symbol of order in every system they deploy.
The mythology surrounding the BSF reinforces their fearsome image:
- "The Warden of Iron": A legendary commander said to have held a blacksite against an entire UNSC strike force for nine days without reinforcements, inspiring the current doctrine of never yielding ground.
- "The Night of Chains": An operation where a BSF purge force locked down a rebellious city sector by sector, leaving only silence and smoking ruins by dawn.
- "The Last Bastion": A tale told to every recruit, recounting a squad that stood against overwhelming odds, buying enough time for the Regime to secure its assets before falling to the last soldier, immortalized as martyrs of loyalty.
Through their sigil and their stories, the BSF embodies the myth of the unbreakable wall, a force that does not bend, does not falter, and does not forgive. Their presence in any theater is both the promise of salvation for the loyal and the harbinger of annihilation for the treacherous.
III. Behavioral Customs
BSF members follow strict behavioral customs that reinforce their identity as elite enforcers:
- Absolute Discipline: Members never appear in public without full uniform or armor. Even in peace, they move with precision and control, projecting authority.
- Collective Identity: Individual recognition is minimal; units act as one, rarely speaking outside of necessity, reinforcing the perception of them as a single iron machine.
- Zero Tolerance: Hesitation is weakness; failure is treason. Any sign of disobedience is purged immediately, even within their own ranks.
Their demeanor in operations is cold and efficient. They do not negotiate; they issue ultimatums, and their enemies learn quickly that defiance brings annihilation.
IV. Ceremonial Rites and Traditions
The BSF maintains several rites and traditions that strengthen unit cohesion and instill fear in those who oppose them:
- The Rite of Iron Oath: Every recruit swears an oath in front of the Directorate’s sigil, pledging to stand as an unbreakable wall until death. Those who falter during training are burned from records, their failure erased.
- The Vigil of Silence: Before major operations, units stand in complete silence for one hour, symbolizing their readiness to act as one without words.
- The Ashing of Traitors: When an internal traitor is found, they are executed by the squad they betrayed, their armor burned and their name stricken from history.
These traditions cultivate a culture of fear, loyalty, and honor bound in blood and silence.
V. Worldview and Enemy Perception
The BSF worldview is binary: there is loyalty, and there is treason. No middle ground exists. To them, the galaxy is a fragile structure held together only by iron order, and any crack, no matter how small, must be sealed with fire.
- Enemies are not seen as opponents; they are diseases to be burned out.
- Rebels are considered worse than aliens, because they were born under the Regime’s protection yet chose to defy it.
- Allies are respected but monitored; loyalty must always be proven.
To BSF soldiers, fear is not cruelty, it is the most effective form of protection.
VI. Section Mantras & Cultural Lexicon
The BSF operates under mantras that encapsulate their philosophy:
- “The Wall Does Not Fall.”
- “Order Through Fire.”
- “Where We Stand, the Shadows Break.”
Their cultural lexicon includes:
- "Ashfall": The term used for a completed purge.
- "Iron March": A rapid deployment to quell rebellion.
- "Silent Bastion": A blacksite under BSF guard, rumored to be impenetrable.
These words carry both pride among BSF operatives and dread among those who oppose them.
VII. Legacy and Cultural Influence
The BSF’s legacy is written in blood and steel. Their interventions have crushed countless uprisings, secured GBA’s most valuable assets, and reinforced the Regime’s control across every star system. Civilians whisper about their deployments, knowing their arrival means that order will be restored at any cost.
Within the UCG, they are both feared and revered. Even high-ranking officials tread carefully in their presence, knowing that the BSF answers only to the GBA’s highest command. Their cultural influence extends beyond military circles, shaping propaganda, public order policies, and the psychological landscape of fear that keeps the Regime unchallenged.
The BSF embodies the visible power of the GBA, proving that while shadows manipulate, iron enforces.
Public Agenda
"We do not protect order; we enforce it."
I. Purpose
The Bureau Security Force (BSF) exists to serve as the visible enforcer of the Galactic Bureau Agency’s authority. Its primary purpose is to secure GBA blacksites, research complexes, and operational nodes, ensuring that no internal threat or external force compromises the Regime’s most critical assets. Unlike other GBA elements that operate in shadows, the BSF’s strength lies in its presence, a reminder to both allies and enemies that the Regime does not merely rule—it dominates.
The BSF also functions as the first responder to internal uprisings and compromised assets, deploying with overwhelming force to suppress rebellion and restore control. To the galaxy, their purpose is simple but absolute: to stand where order falters and to crush any who threaten it.
II. Enforcement Through Fear and Strength
The BSF’s agenda is driven by the belief that order is maintained not through words, but through visible strength. Their armored patrols, heavily fortified checkpoints, and swift intervention operations serve as constant reminders of GBA supremacy. Civilians may see them as protectors, but insurgents and traitors know them as executioners.
Every deployment is calculated to project fear as much as to enforce law. By making examples of dissidents, they deter rebellion before it spreads. Their actions broadcast a singular message across every system: defiance is not only futile, it is suicidal.
III. Support of the GBA’s Internal Stability
BSF operations extend beyond battlefield intervention; they are the stabilizing presence that keeps GBA infrastructure and personnel aligned with central command. During purges or internal investigations, the BSF acts as the hand of order, assisting Section II in rooting out subversion while ensuring no operational assets fall into enemy hands.
They also ensure that GBA facilities remain untouchable. Whether guarding research hubs from sabotage, escorting high-value transfers, or eliminating rogue elements, the BSF ensures that the Regime’s inner workings remain flawless and uncompromised.
IV. Public Projection of the Regime’s Power
The BSF serves as a living symbol of the UCG’s absolute power. Unlike other GBA forces that prefer secrecy, the BSF’s agenda intentionally maintains a highly visible presence in key systems to remind populations of the Regime’s reach. Their marching formations, armored convoys, and intimidating garrisons are a daily visual for those who might contemplate defiance.
This visibility also extends to their operations. When the BSF is deployed during purges or counter-insurgency actions, they ensure the public witnesses their efficiency and ruthlessness. Their open projection of strength reinforces the cultural narrative that the GBA is invincible, and the BSF is its iron shield.
V. Uncompromising Response to Treason
The BSF’s public agenda makes clear that treason is not an ideology to be debated, it is a plague to be burned out. They are tasked with executing purges against compromised populations or units, often in cooperation with Section II. Their presence during such operations ensures fear spreads faster than rebellion, suppressing dissent at its earliest stages.
When confronting enemy forces or rogue GBA personnel, their reputation precedes them. The BSF does not negotiate with traitors; it eradicates them, leaving behind a lasting example of what happens to those who betray the Regime.
VI. Legacy and Influence Across Systems
Across UCG space, the BSF’s legacy is etched into the memory of every colony and every system they have touched. They are credited with ending rebellions before they ignited, holding the line against overwhelming odds, and securing GBA dominance in times of crisis.
Their influence is twofold:
- For the loyal, they are iron guardians, the presence that keeps chaos at bay.
- For the disloyal, they are the executioners, the unstoppable force that comes for all who dare defy the Regime.
Even outside GBA territories, whispers of the BSF’s power ensure that potential adversaries tread carefully, knowing that the Regime’s reach is both far and absolute.
“The Bureau Security Force does not ask permission to enforce order. They do not warn, they do not negotiate, they act. To the loyal, they are the fortress that shields them from the storm. To the treacherous, they are the storm itself, tearing down everything they touch. Across every world, their march sends the same message: the Regime does not falter, it does not forgive, and it will never fall while its iron guardians stand watch.”
— Lord Director Avery Jackson, Galactic Bureau Agency Overseer
Military
"The iron wall does not bend. It does not ask. It only enforces."
I. Role Within the GBA
The Bureau Security Force (BSF) stands as the paramilitary muscle of the Galactic Bureau Agency, bridging the gap between internal security and open warfare. Unlike other GBA sections that favor stealth, espionage, or manipulation, the BSF serves as the highly visible enforcer, a force whose arrival signals that diplomacy has failed and enforcement has begun.
Its primary role within the GBA includes:
- Guarding all GBA critical assets, from research complexes to deep blacksites.
- Supporting Sections I–V during black operations where direct force is required.
- Executing purges of compromised facilities, rogue operatives, and rebellious territories.
- Acting as the public deterrent, their presence alone discourages rebellion and enemy interference.
The BSF’s military is not vast, but it is elite, composed of highly trained soldiers drawn from the most exceptional DMDF shock infantry and subjected to GBA reconditioning and augmentation protocols.
II. Units of the Section
The BSF fields three primary elite units, each serving a distinct operational role yet bound by the same unshakable doctrine.
1. Obsidian Guard – “Custodes Umbrae” (Guardians of the Shadow)
Motto: "Umbra Stabit" – "The Shadow Stands"
Description:
The Obsidian Guard are the heavily armed defenders of GBA blacksites and operational hubs. They are the immovable wall of the BSF, equipped with bulwark exo-armor featuring enhanced shielding and advanced counter-siege systems. Their role is to hold ground under any circumstances, ensuring that no asset falls into enemy hands.
Roles:
- Fortification and defense of high-value GBA installations.
- Counter-siege tactics during planetary assaults.
- Securement of classified assets during evacuations or crises.
Culture:
Obsidian Guard operatives embrace stoicism and endurance, seeing themselves as living bastions. Their philosophy is simple: they hold, or they die standing. Failure is not an option, and surrender is unthinkable.
2. Spectral Vanguard – “Vexillum Mortis” (Banner of Death)
Motto: "Mors Celer" – "Death is Swift"
Description:
The Spectral Vanguard are the rapid-response strike teams of the BSF, specializing in asset recovery, high-value target elimination, and emergency intervention. Clad in stealth composites and armed with high-output energy weapons, they strike with the speed and precision of a scalpel, destroying threats before they escalate.
Roles:
- Retrieval of compromised GBA intelligence and technologies.
- Emergency reinforcement of endangered blacksites.
- Silent elimination of rogue elements or infiltrators.
Culture:
Spectral Vanguard soldiers adopt a hunter’s mindset, blending speed, precision, and lethality. They see themselves as the wolves of the BSF, stalking threats until the moment they strike.
3. Onyx Phalanx – “Ferrum Ultimum” (Iron to the End)
Motto: "Ultio Ferri" – "Vengeance of Iron"
Description:
The Onyx Phalanx is the BSF’s breacher and purge unit, deployed when enemies must be ripped from fortified positions or erased completely. They wield advanced suppression technology, including anti-personnel shockwave cannons, incendiary devices, and adaptive breaching shields. The Phalanx is most feared during facility purges, where their appearance guarantees total annihilation of hostile forces.
Roles:
- Purging compromised facilities and insurgent strongholds.
- Leading assaults in urban warfare or tight quarters.
- Executing total destruction orders where no enemy survivors are allowed.
Culture:
The Onyx Phalanx embraces ruthless finality. They are indoctrinated to believe that every purge is a cleansing, a necessary act to preserve the Regime’s strength. Their mantra is: “No shadow remains where iron treads.”
III. Strategic Role in Galactic Campaigns
In galactic campaigns, the BSF serves as the GBA’s visible iron shield and hammer. While other sections operate in secrecy, the BSF’s strategic role is to:
- Secure GBA interests across contested worlds.
- Reinforce DMDF operations, deploying alongside front-line divisions when suppression and security measures are required.
- Provide overwhelming force during operations where stealth is no longer viable.
The BSF’s presence in campaigns is a clear indicator that the GBA expects total control. They often secure war-critical installations, protect high-value personnel, and enforce order in the aftermath of battles, preventing uprisings or theft of GBA assets.
IV. Reputation and Legacy
The BSF’s reputation is one of awe and terror.
- Among Civilians: They are viewed as protectors when loyalty is assured, but as executioners when dissent stirs.
- Among Insurgents: Their name is synonymous with certain death.
- Among the GBA itself: They are regarded with respect and caution, for their authority is absolute and their judgment merciless.
Their legacy is written in the countless uprisings crushed and facilities defended against impossible odds. Where they deploy, resistance dies, and order rises from the ashes.
“The Bureau Security Force is not an army, it is the embodiment of the Regime’s will. They are the wall upon which rebellion breaks, the hammer that crushes traitors, and the shadow that falls upon all who dare to defy us. When they arrive, the enemy has already lost; they just haven’t realized it yet. The BSF does not negotiate. It does not hesitate. It enforces. And in its enforcement, the galaxy learns what it means to stand against the UCG.”
— Lord Director Avery Jackson, Galactic Bureau Agency Overseer
Foreign Relations
"Where diplomacy fails, our presence speaks with fire."
I. Diplomatic Stance and Strategic Posture
The Bureau Security Force (BSF) does not engage in diplomacy directly; instead, it serves as the enforcer of the GBA’s diplomatic will. Its presence in foreign relations is symbolic rather than political, projecting strength and reinforcing the message that the United Colonial Group tolerates no threats to its sovereignty. When deployed to foreign zones, BSF forces function as living declarations of the Regime’s resolve, often arriving as both deterrent and warning.
Strategically, the BSF is proactive in maintaining GBA dominance. They are often stationed in high-tension regions or near key installations where political negotiations are ongoing, reminding all parties involved that words are meaningless without power to back them. Their posture is not one of negotiation but of absolute enforcement, the galaxy understands that where the BSF stands, the GBA’s patience has limits.
II. Relations with the UNSC / UEG Remnants
The BSF’s relationship with the UNSC and UEG remnants is hostile and uncompromising. Unlike other GBA sections that prefer covert subversion, the BSF’s encounters with UNSC forces are direct and brutal. Whenever conflicts arise, they deploy as the vanguard of suppression, crushing UNSC footholds with overwhelming force.
In diplomacy, their presence serves as a clear statement: the GBA does not fear the UNSC’s fleets or politics. BSF units have been known to escort GBA delegations during high-risk negotiations, their imposing presence a constant reminder that any aggression will be met with annihilation. To the UNSC, the BSF is a symbol of the Regime’s iron discipline and willingness to use force without hesitation.
III. Relations with Alien Powers and Xeno-Species
With alien powers, the BSF’s relations are shaped by intimidation and control. They serve as the Regime’s visible deterrent against alien incursions, ensuring that no xeno-species dares to challenge GBA dominance directly. When alien factions engage diplomatically with the UCG, the BSF is often deployed alongside high-value GBA sites, demonstrating that the Regime is always ready for war, even during peace.
For hostile alien species, the BSF’s interactions are typically one-sided, eradication and suppression. Their tactics against alien threats often involve rapid insertion assaults, fortification of captured worlds, and public displays of power that leave lasting impressions on alien populations.
IV. Relations with Insurgent Forces and Rebel Worlds
The BSF’s relations with insurgent forces and rebel worlds are defined by absolute hostility. There is no diplomacy with rebels, only eradication. To the BSF, insurgents are plagues that must be burned out, and rebel-controlled planets are infected zones to be purged until they return to Regime control.
Their deployments to rebellious worlds are swift, overwhelming, and final. Entire cities have been leveled as warnings to others, and countless insurgent factions have vanished under the BSF’s relentless campaigns. Their reputation among rebels is one of terror and inevitability, they know that once the BSF is sent, their cause is already dead.
V. Relations with Neutral Powers, Mercenary States & Minor Factions
Neutral powers and mercenary states view the BSF with a mix of fear and reluctant respect. Though not directly hostile, the BSF’s presence in neutral territories is often enough to alter political decisions in favor of the GBA. Their deployment during peacekeeping or enforcement operations serves as a silent ultimatum to these factions: align with the Regime, or risk annihilation.
Mercenary groups, in particular, avoid direct confrontations with BSF units, knowing that their advanced armor, weapons, and tactical precision far exceed anything a private force could field. Many minor factions have chosen subtle cooperation with the GBA solely to avoid BSF intervention.
VI. Symbolic Relationships
The BSF’s symbolic relationships transcend politics. To allies, they represent security incarnate, a wall of iron that ensures stability. To enemies, they are the storm that follows disobedience, a relentless force that leaves only ashes in its wake. Their Black, Sapphire Blue and Silver armor, their unflinching discipline, and their imposing formations have become iconic representations of the GBA’s authority.
Their very presence in any system reshapes the political landscape, as factions weigh the risks of defiance against the certainty of destruction. In this way, the BSF functions not just as a military asset but as a psychological weapon of the Regime.
VII. Reputation Among Friend and Foe
- Among Allies: The BSF is respected but feared. Even loyalist leaders tread carefully, knowing that BSF enforcers answer only to the GBA High Command.
- Among Enemies: They are a legend of dread. Stories of their purges and sieges travel faster than their ships, demoralizing opponents before they even engage.
- Among Civilians: They are “Iron Sentinels”, embodying both safety and oppression depending on one’s loyalty to the Regime.
Their reputation ensures that few dare to challenge the GBA directly, and fewer still survive when they do.
“The Bureau Security Force does not seek alliances. They do not ask for treaties. They stand where the Regime demands order, and they enforce it with the weight of iron and the fire of judgment. To the galaxy, their presence is a warning; to our enemies, it is a death sentence. When the BSF arrives, diplomacy is already over, the only language left is fear, and the only outcome is control.”
— Lord Director Avery Jackson, Galactic Bureau Agency Overseer
Laws
"The wall does not bend, it does not break, and it does not forgive."
I. Foundation of the BSF Laws
The legal framework of the Bureau Security Force (BSF) is built on the principle that security and order are absolute, and anything that threatens either must be eradicated without hesitation. The BSF’s laws, known internally as the Codex Ferrum, are founded on doctrines that prioritize loyalty, protection of GBA assets, and visible enforcement of the Regime’s will. Unlike the subtle laws of Section I or Ø, BSF laws are blunt and uncompromising, reflecting their role as the iron fist of the GBA.
These laws do not simply guide behavior, they dictate survival. Within the BSF’s jurisdiction, there is no ambiguity between right and wrong: you are loyal to the Regime, or you are against it. In this legal paradigm, neutrality is not an option.
II. Structure and Creation of Laws
The BSF’s laws are issued and maintained by the Director Primaris in consultation with the Directus Department Heads, with oversight from the GBA High Command. The laws are codified into the Iron Edict, a classified but rigidly enforced legal document stored within the Bastion Vaults, accessible only to BSF high command.
Unlike civilian law, the BSF’s legal structure is:
- Hierarchical: Only the Director Primaris can authorize new laws or alter existing ones.
- Operational: Laws are crafted to support BSF tactical and security objectives.
- Non-Debatable: No court, tribunal, or senate can overrule them; they exist outside civil authority.
Every law is designed to ensure the Regime’s security remains unchallenged.
III. Core BSF Laws
Despite their broad authority, the BSF operates under core legal principles that guide every action:
- The Law of Iron Vigilance: All threats to GBA assets, no matter how small, must be neutralized immediately.
- The Law of Absolute Loyalty: Any act of disobedience or hesitation is treason and will be punished without delay.
- The Law of Controlled Force: Violence is a tool to enforce order, and its use must be decisive and overwhelming.
- The Law of Asset Sanctity: GBA installations, research, and personnel are sacred; failing to defend them is an unforgivable offense.
- The Law of the Wall: The BSF itself must remain incorruptible; internal betrayal is purged without mercy.
These laws ensure that order is preserved not by negotiation, but by strength.
IV. Enforcement of Laws
Enforcement is carried out by the BSF itself, with Directus Custodiae (Department of Internal Order) overseeing all internal investigations and loyalty sweeps. Their enforcement philosophy is visible and absolute:
- Internal Audits: Loyalty is monitored at every level through surveillance and mandatory checks.
- Rapid Response: Any breach of law is met with immediate action, often in the form of overwhelming force.
- Public Enforcement: When appropriate, punishments are executed openly to reinforce the consequences of defiance.
Unlike other sections, BSF laws are enforced in plain view, making an example out of every violator.
V. Punishments and Penances
Punishments under BSF law are swift, brutal, and final. They serve both as justice and as a deterrent:
- Eradication Protocols: Offenders are executed, their existence erased from all records.
- The Ashing: Traitors are burned from history, armor melted, name erased, body incinerated.
- Iron Exile: In rare cases, offenders are sent on suicide missions, stripped of identity, and left to die serving the Regime.
- Public Termination: Used when fear needs to be reinforced; executions are staged for maximum psychological effect.
There is no rehabilitation; loyalty is absolute, and any crack is destroyed.
VI. Flexibility and Reach of the Law
BSF laws are rigid in principle but adaptable in enforcement. They can be applied to any territory, any unit, and any individual under the jurisdiction of the GBA. Unlike civilian laws, which may vary by region, the Codex Ferrum is universal across all UCG-controlled systems.
Their reach extends:
- Across military and civilian sectors no one is above BSF law.
- Into allied DMDF ranks if loyalty is in question, BSF authority overrides local command.
- Beyond UCG space their laws follow them wherever they deploy, even in foreign territories.
No one is beyond the long arm of the BSF’s authority.
VII. Legacy of the BSF Law
The legacy of BSF law is one of fear, respect, and stability. Entire colonies have been pacified not because of open battles, but because their populations feared the iron enforcement of BSF doctrines. Within GBA space, the BSF’s legal system is both a sword and a shield, protecting the loyal and annihilating the treacherous.
Over time, the mere mention of the Codex Ferrum has become synonymous with absolute control. Civilians live under the shadow of its authority, insurgents perish under its enforcement, and the galaxy at large understands that to defy the Regime’s law is to sign one’s own death sentence.
“The law of the Bureau Security Force is not written for debate, nor is it softened by mercy. It exists to preserve order and crush all who would challenge it. When they enforce their law, it is not with hesitation but with the certainty of iron. To the loyal, these laws are the wall that shields them; to the treacherous, they are the executioner’s blade. There is no escape, no appeal, and no forgiveness, only the iron truth that the Regime endures, and all else burns.”
— Lord Director Avery Jackson, Galactic Bureau Agency Overseer
Education
"The wall is not built—it is forged."
I. Education Structure and Purpose
The education system of the BSF is meticulously designed to create elite enforcers who embody the Regime’s authority both physically and psychologically. Unlike the more clandestine training of other GBA divisions, BSF education is highly regimented, structured to break down individuality and forge unwavering loyalty. Training occurs in Iron Bastions, heavily fortified academies hidden in remote sectors, where recruits undergo years of reconditioning, indoctrination, and physical enhancement.
The purpose of this education is clear:
- To transform recruits into living symbols of order and enforcement.
- To instill absolute loyalty to the Regime above all else.
- To create soldiers capable of both holding the line and delivering overwhelming force.
Graduates emerge as unshakable instruments of GBA will, prepared to stand against any threat.
II. Doctrinal Education
Doctrinal education forms the ideological core of BSF training. Recruits are taught that they are not just soldiers, but the guardians of the GBA’s very existence. Through constant indoctrination sessions, they internalize the principles of strength, fear, and loyalty.
Key tenets of doctrinal education include:
- The Doctrine of the Wall: The BSF stands as the unbreakable barrier between order and chaos.
- The Doctrine of Visible Power: Presence is power; their appearance alone must deter rebellion.
- The Doctrine of Iron Loyalty: Personal identity is meaningless; only service to the Regime matters.
These teachings are reinforced through propaganda, psychological conditioning, and ritualized reinforcement, ensuring that every operative views themselves as an inseparable extension of the GBA’s will.
III. Combat and Tactical Training
BSF recruits undergo extensive combat and tactical education, designed to make them masters of both defense and suppression. Their training surpasses that of standard DMDF shock infantry, incorporating advanced weaponry, breaching technology, and suppression tactics unique to their role.
Training includes:
- Heavy Assault and Defensive Tactics: Specialization in both siege-breaking and fortress-holding.
- Urban Warfare and Purge Operations: Expertise in controlling tight spaces and executing facility purges.
- Prototype Weapon Mastery: Usage of GBA-exclusive armaments and shielding systems.
- Tactical Coordination: Drills that emphasize unit cohesion, ensuring that squads act as a single entity.
This rigorous training ensures that BSF units never falter, regardless of the battlefield environment.
IV. Trial of The Iron Crucible
The final stage of BSF education is known as The Iron Crucible, a grueling ordeal designed to separate the unbreakable from the weak. During this trial, recruits are placed in a live combat scenario simulating a full-scale rebellion inside a fortified installation. They must:
- Defend a GBA blacksite against overwhelming forces.
- Execute purge operations on hostile elements hidden within.
- Survive without external support, relying only on their training and their squad.
Failure is not tolerated; those who falter are executed on the spot, their names erased. Those who succeed earn the right to wear the Black, Sapphire Blue and Silver armor of the BSF, joining the ranks of the Iron Guardians.
V. Disparity and Class Access
Access to BSF education is strictly selective. Candidates are drawn from:
- Elite DMDF shock infantry with proven loyalty and combat records.
- GBA security personnel who demonstrate exceptional aptitude.
- Outer Colony recruits hardened by survival and war.
Class origin matters little; loyalty and strength are the only criteria. However, the process is so brutal that only a fraction of those selected survive to graduation. Those who do are stripped of their previous identity and reborn as guardians of the Regime.
VI. Culture of Education
The culture within the Iron Bastions is one of discipline, unity, and fearlessness. Recruits are forbidden from using personal names during training, referred to only by designations, reinforcing the erasure of individuality. Competition is encouraged, but failure is punished mercilessly, not as cruelty, but as a reminder that weakness endangers the wall.
Rituals such as the Silent March, where recruits train for hours without speaking, and the Oath of Iron, sworn before the GBA insignia, reinforce their collective identity. By the time they graduate, BSF soldiers no longer think of themselves as individuals, they are the wall.
VII. Reputation and Legacy of Section Education
The BSF’s education has earned a reputation as one of the most brutal and effective training programs within the UCG. Its graduates are feared across the galaxy and respected within the GBA as paragons of loyalty and strength. Their presence in any theater of war immediately changes the balance of power; enemies fear them, and allies know that as long as the BSF stands, the line will not break.
Their legacy is built upon the countless rebellions they have crushed and the facilities they have defended against overwhelming odds. The Iron Crucible ensures that every BSF soldier is a survivor of impossible trials, making them legends before they even step onto the battlefield.
“The Bureau Security Force is forged, not trained. Their education is not about learning, it is about becoming something greater than human. They are remade into the iron walls upon which chaos breaks, the guardians who do not flinch when the galaxy trembles. To pass through their Crucible is to die as a man and be reborn as the embodiment of the Regime’s will. And those who emerge from it carry with them the unshakable truth: the wall does not fall.”
— Lord Director Avery Jackson, Galactic Bureau Agency Overseer
The Bureau Security Force (BSF) serves as the elite military police and enforcement arm of the Galactic Bureau Agency (GBA). Unlike the covert operatives of other GBA divisions, the BSF operates as a highly visible force of dominance, tasked with securing blacksites, defending critical installations, and executing purges with overwhelming precision. Known as the Iron Guardians of the Shadows, they embody the Regime’s unbreakable will, standing as both a fortress to the loyal and a nightmare to the treacherous.
