Administration

The true glue that keeps Vanguard both together and moving in a strange paradox. Administration manages our website, promotion processing, and a myriad of other necessary evils that come with running a large organization.

Orientation Services

Human resources are responsible for first contact with new recruits. Starting with a message to private message to help them find the website. Premiere's Orientation is like no other where you have someone help you get started, giving you a welcoming talk that covers the most basic rules. The Talon assessment helps people figure out what Wing they wish to be part of. Premiere is also responsible for the placement of each person as they begin their journey with Vanguard.

Human resources are the ones who search through the records and logs looking for lost personal, hoping to make contact, bringing them back to us. If they have moved on and no longer wish to be a part of Vanguard, we remove old records updating the logs of active members. By keeping up with this off-boarding, we keep our active players to the front allowing us to concentrate and use our resources wisely.

Outreach Operations

Reaching out into the Verse, this is the team that manages the image of Vanguard and recruits new personnel. If you fully support Vanguard, especially its ideals and direction, and like to mingle and market, join us in Outreach Operations.

Diplomats

Are you an explorer at heart? Do you love meeting new people and going new places? Have you ever dreamed of jumping in your spaceship, papers in hand to go out and meet the Verse? Are you good at making yourself clearly understood and listening? Do you have nerves of steel? These are the very qualities that will be needed for a Diplomat of Vanguard. New Faces and Strange Places! Join the Diplomatic Corp of Vanguard today!

Here are the skillful negotiators, first contact specialists, and speakers of Xi’an and Banu. Diplomacy is their specialty and they handle both Vanguard issues as well as hire their services out to outside clients. 

Dignitary Protection

The Dignitary Protection Squadron, a unit within Premiere that hold skills most would deem polar opposites, or even ironic. Their primary duty of being dedicated to diplomacy and peace is served by being ready to use violence and the tools of war. They are charged with protecting the VIP guests of the Vanguard organization or those that hire our services for VIP tours or events. Yet they are also required to be skilled negotiators and capable valets to serve the needs of any visiting dignitary they are protecting.

These "Plum Paladins" can look the part of a holo-vid action star, both in profile and action. Dignified while guarding those they protect, they will respond with righteous wrath upon those that endanger their charges. Trained heavily by Security (many are ex-security), those in Dignitary Protection Squadron need to know how to handle combat and transportation to do their one duty - protect the asset. On the other side, conversation, etiquette, and protocol, plus skillful negotiation, can hopefully prevent any incident from turning ugly.
