They support (and mostly enforce) cooperation between the Elected Kingdoms and the High Kingdom, by pooling together their technical and specialist skills of the institutions of Empire and the Elected Kingdoms. These agencies are scattered all over Dalmeran.

### Executive Agencies

Executive Agencies are established for a limited lifespan by the Commission of Empire so as to manage the specific tasks linked to the Empire’s program.

### Non Permanent Organizations

## Institutions and bodies concerning policy making

### Imperial Parliament / The Arc

Dalmer society is tetracameral with two chambers representing the people at large divided by age (the Patri and Matri Courts), the other two representing respectively the technocracy (Technicans), and the economic interests of the people (Directorate).

These chambers exist for each Elective Monarchy of the Dalmer empire, as such, each settlement whose land meets certain requirements may very well have its own Arc in time.

Historically, there is no clear alliance between the chambers, though and there have been attempts to add a fifth for the magical or religious communities in some settlements.

#### Patri (National assembly)

Lower Court of Dalmer politics, destined to be the “Court of ideas” designed to be filled with young(er) dalmer representatives to try out and test policies that can improve dalmer society, essentially acting as a discussion chamber for voting laws, they are considered inventive and enterprising by the rest of the Dalmer political class.

#### Matri (Senate)

After the industrial revolution, lowering production costs became the norm, then assembly lines. Then came robotization, and then the Aethernet, which made technology companies gigantic. The platforms act as redistribution, indenturing feudal lordship over the infrastructure of society. Everything is software leasing, then the government bought them all out. The cost? Information, data became the price of admission, to control the consumption and behaviors of people by creating trends which the government has to auto regulate.

## Science and technology

### Technology Safety

The S.A.F.E.T.Y. (Sovereign Armed Forces for the Extraction of TechnologY) is a police force dedicated to the safeguarding of Dalmer technology. The Safety is an Imperial agency with an empire wide jurisdiction.

The Safety recovers technology to ensure it doesn't fall into the wrong hands. The victims can ask for reparations, but they never see the object again.

The Safety’s reliquary includes technologies such as Words, Enchantments and Totems. Words are weaponized voice commands. Spells are offensive, defensive and utility technologies. Enchantments are Weapons and Personal Protection technologies. Totems are werewolf related technologies.

The Safety has many powers at its disposal in order to accomplish its missions. Among these are immunity against prison time, the ability to form posses and armies, to own and man barracks and safe houses and naturally access to some of the technologies they keep safe. Lastly, the Safety maintains sponsorships with Curators in order to ensure their ability to exercise their activities. This is usually done in exchange for help with police work on the Kurat.

A serious issue in the empire is ensuring that Dalmer technology does not fall into the hands of the other races. As such missions to find and secure technology that was left behind by adventuring dalmer and repossessed by other races is a common government issue mission.

There are two scenarios, either the adventurer has a portable molecular scanner that disassembles the technology on a molecular level, whilst adding the technology to its personal database, or the adventurer must bring the technology to a molecular scanner where the technology will be added to its personal database.
