Department of Operations

The Department of Operations is tasked with keeping the physical structure of HQ going. It is sometimes confused with Upstairs, whether the Flowers themselves or the actual upper level of HQ where many of their offices are located. The department was run for a long time by the Wisteria; however, said Flower was killed during the Crashing Down crisis. The Nightshade was chosen to replace it.

Divisions
The Department of Operations does not have divisions per se (at least, they have never been labelled as such). Rather, there are various categories of staff, and sites within HQ, which come under its remit, and are nominally under the direction of the Nightshade. Unfortunately, the Wisteria was rather a lax leader (the Sub Rosa stated that he "thought exercise was more interesting than management"), so many of these see themselves as fairly independent; indeed, in some cases it is unclear whether they were ever part of Operations to begin with.
