[[Image:OfficioOrg.jpg|thumb|right|The structure of the Officio Assassinorum. Note that the [[Vanus]] and [[Venenum]] Temples are dubbed "classified"{{Fn|16}}]]
The primary division of the Officio is into temples (also called clades), each of which is led by a small group of Masters (often termed '''Lord Assassins''' or '''Grand Masters'''{{fn|9}}) and specialises in a unique brand of murder.{{fn|16}} These Masters rarely work directly but instead being responsible for planning, organising, research and watching over the younger Assassins. The greater number of the Assassins are unranked, though some can be more experienced than others.{{Fn|2}} Despite their hard and often short lives, Assassins can rise in the organization by successfully completing missions. Upon achieving '''Sicarius Primus''', they gain the right of refusal to any sector-level mission and even take assignments intended for other Temples. This is the stepping stone for advancement to the central Temple on Terra, where they can become high-ranking masters of the organization.{{Fn|27a}} Indeed, the Grand Master himself is a skilled assassin who has advanced to the Officio's highest position.{{Fn|28}}
