	The Regario Dossier is first and foremost a Bourse seat. Beyond the [[#Annual Report\|annual report]], it does not provide additional information about events in the Empire, or in any foreign nation, nor does it allow the player holding it to request special reports or downtime actions. These details are assumed to be below the abstraction layer. The title holder is encouraged to create their own stories about their activities within reasonable limits and to get involved in events appropriate to their title during the game, but they do not have any powers beyond those explicitly listed in the section on powers.

	The Regario Dossier is an Imperial title. It is a national title, that can be held only by a citizen of [[the League]]. While it provides a small bounty of the miraculous material [[ilium]] each season, its real purpose is to provide the holder with an annual report from agents based in [[foreign ports]], with a special focus on matters pertaining to international trade. It is technically operated from a small office in [[Tassato#Tassato Regario\|Tassato Regario]], but in truth this is merely a convenient front used by the civil service.

	The agents of the Regario Dossier are based in foreign nations where they sift through endless reports for useful information which is sent back to the Empire once it has been verified. The agents always referred to by pseudonyms, each named after a significant river. Agent Couros is based in Nemoria in the Asavean Archipelago; Agent Vassa based in Zemeh and the Sumaah Republic; Agent Scorrero based in the city of Jarm in the Jarmish Principalities; Agent Gancio based in the port-city of Leerdam in the Commonwealth; ~~and agent~~ Umshalla based in the Sarcophan Delves in Sarcophan~~. In reality, these Agents tend to be figureheads responsible for collecting~~ and ~~compiling reports from one or more other agents active~~ in ~~the foreign nation~~.

	These agents are largely able to avoid detection because residents of the nations where they are active are used to seeing Imperial merchants and even Imperial citizens who have settled there. Consequently, while the Regario Dossier has been able infiltrate Faraden successfully, attempts to gain a foothold in the Iron Confederacy and Axos have proved much more difficult.

All communication takes place through an office of the civil service (referred to as ''Agent Catazar'' on the occasion that they provide any documents themselves), allowing for the security of the agents to be preserved in the face of regularly changing seat holder. The autonomy the agents possess is generally considered to be a key to their success, and endangering it would almost certainly reduce their usefulness.

	===Spies and Informants===		===Spies and Informants===
	The agents of the Regario Dossier gather intelligence from a network of spies and informants, with the latter far outstripping the former. In practice most informants are Imperial traders who regularly visit a nation, or former Imperial citizens who have settled there~~, but the~~ most successful agents have been able to subvert minor government functionaries and others though the use of judicious bribes.

	There are far less ~~real~~ spies - perhaps no more than a dozen as of 379YE. ~~These~~ are usually Imperial citizens, who claim their first loyalty is to the Throne ~~but~~ who have found a way to gain employment serving the government or the powers-that-be of a foreign land.

There are far less actual spies - perhaps no more than a dozen as of 379YE. Spies are usually Imperial citizens who claim their first loyalty is to the Throne, thought they may also be malcontents or revolutionaries who are opposed to undermining their own nation. The most useful have found a way to gain employment serving the government or the powers-that-be of a foreign land and are thus in a position to provide the Empire with inside information. They tend to produce vastly less information than informants; usually they will be unable to provide anything of value for years at a time. However when they do stumble across something of value, it can be incredibly useful, giving the Empire advance warning of things that no amount of informants would ever have passed on.

	The custodian of the Regario Dossier receives a report each year, comprising information compiled from details passed on by both spies and informants. On the ''rare'' occasion that an Imperial spy discovers something of exceptional value and urgency, it will be passed back to the holder of the Regario Dossier immediately.
