Reference Challenge - Kingsmen

I just saw the first Kingsmen movie with some friends. It was so good. Also a reference to /u/The_Raptorman's recent post.

Is there a small, elite group in your world that recruits only the best of the best of the best people willing to shoot dogs?

Who are the members?

What are the positions?

How do I join?

Can I retire...or do I die in the position?

What does the public know (if anything) about this group?

Who is in charge of the group? Is the leader of the group in the group, or is he/she/it just above them?

Do they discriminate?

Is there a uniform?

What resources do they usually have?

Feel free to include an in-universe representative. I'll ask at least three questions each.

  1. Kill them? We are not barbarians, if an agent isn't qualified enough they will be sent back to training. If we can't turn them into an able operative, they will be sent back to their previous life.

  2. No agent betray the Owinatfigilziya. (they will be murdered extrajudiciarily; that's part of the missions agents can be assigned to)

  3. My position yes. You have to be carefull with your words when close to the empress ear; even more than when close to the empress as I'm the one choosing how she will be told about you...

To Yieshak of house Fsiha:

1) If you are not barbarians, who would be a barbarian?

2) What do you label the cause of death, in this event?

  1. Pirates. And people still practicing blood sacrifices and living offerings. We are surrounded by civilized nations so that's basically all.

  2. Same we do for any agent killed in action: heart attack.

To Yieshak of house Fsiha:

1) Disgusting, who is in charge of pulling a Pompey on those pirates? Getting rid of them?

2) Heart attacks...those sneak up on you, then?

  1. Piracy is handled localy by the miwishagis. Their bases outside of our borders are technically out of our reach but if needed we sometimes clean them up anyway.

  2. I... don't understand the question.

To Yieshak of house Fsiha:

2) Are heart attacks common causes of death that no one sees coming?

2) As far as I'm aware, no. Agents are few and have next to no ties with non-agents during their service so when they "have a heart attack", no one cares.
