Department of External Security

The Department of External Security is one of the three Security Departments in the PPC, and is tasked with protecting PPC HQ from attack, by Mary-Sues or other external agencies.

History
The DES was in fact in existence prior to its organisation as a Department. The group of Flowers known as the Weeds was formed near the very beginning of PPC history, on Origin. Once the Organisation had moved into Headquarters and Makes-Things set off the Cascade, the Weeds set off into the plothole network, exploring it and expanding HQ.

In 1999 HST, following the breakup and exile of the Department of Internal Security during the Reorganisation, the Weeds were recalled and renamed the Department of External Security. The Department is still led by Captain Dandy; all the members of this Department are Flowers, and the majority (about 5/6) are Security Dandelions. There are currently 107 living Weeds.
