The Imperial Court Mage Corps (帝国宮廷魔導士団, Teikoku Kyūtei Madōshi-Dan) is a military unit of the Alzano Empire, under the authority of the Ministry Of Defense. It serves as a separate unit alongside the Imperial Army.
Background & Purpose[]
The Imperial Court Mage Corps was formed as a specialized division of military mages, tasked to conduct special assignments on behalf of the Royal Family. It consists of several branches, such as the Special Missions Annex (特務分室, Tokumu Bunshitsu), and Imperial Court Mage Corps First Unit.
The Special Missions Annex are an elite unit of 22 Operatives who serve as the Royal Family's right hand in dealing with various affairs. Due to the high mortality rate of members serving in the branch, the unit is encumbered by a consistent shortage of manpower to conduct their operations, in addition to the lack qualified mages to recruit into their ranks.
The Imperial Court Mage Corps First Unit is another branch that consists of elite mages serving the same role as the Special Missions Annex, only for more generalized missions instead of assignments received directly from the Royal Family. They work in tandem with the Special Missions Annex during various operations, whilst also having them assist in cleanup duty.[1]

Official Note(s)[]
- The designation for Operative #1 "The Magician" is reserved for members of the Ignite Family, or any individual worthy of the position. Non-Ignite Family members such as Cyrus Schumacher are such examples of these individuals.[2]
- Former members of any military branch can be forcibly conscripted into assignments by any active military officer for the duration of an assignment. An example during the Academy Ball Arc, when Glenn Radars was conscripted by Eve Ignite to assist the Special Missions Annex in their mission.[3]
- The Special Missions Annex always have a minimum of at least 2 open slots to fill their roster.[4]

Trivia[]
- The Special Missions Annex's structure is inspired by the Major Arcana, a type of Tarot deck.
- The ordering of cards used is based on the Rider Waite Tarot Deck, where the places for Strength & Justice have been swapped.
- Glenn Radars is the only Special Missions Annex Operative who utilizes an Arcana card for his abilities.
- The anime's portrayal of Albert Frazer, Celica Arfonia and Re=L Rayford's Arcana cards is misleading, as it's more of a visual depiction of their roles in the Special Missions Annex, rather than anything that references them having special Arcana cards with abilities.
- Bernard Jester is the only Special Missions Annex Operative who was assigned a different codename.
- He was former Operative #8 "The Strength", a role succeeded by his successors, Illas & Fergus Stregger.
- Interestingly, among the 3 operatives assigned as Operative #8 "The Strength", he is the only one to have survived his time under that codename.
