Officio Assassinorum
The Officio Assassinorum was a concept created and pushed by a handful of Incubators, led by Kyuubey, in order to bring a semblance of formalization and organization to contractees all oevr the world. This was mainly to keep territorial disputes and infighting to a minimum. It was also a way to legitimize the operation as a whole, raise it from its clandestine underground status, and basically make the entire thing a well-greased machine running on tangible resources and adequate support rather than counting on the mettle of a few bright, but still decidedly fragile Magical Girls. To prevent the heat death of the universe requires more than just a clean heart, a pure Soul Gem and a handful of grief seeds - one also needs synergy. Bureaucracy. Zazz. With the Officio Assassinorum came the classification of Magical Girls.[1]
The Officios work mostly like huge businesses with their respective Incubator as CEO. Some formed international alliances, some are rivals and some sworn enemies. But while their employees might consider each other enemies, the Incubators themselves still see themselves as brothers. [2]

The best. The brightest. The Ultramarines of the setting. They only induct Warmasters and Magical Girls of note.

It is said that a candidate for the First needs the combat prowess of Kharn and the heart of Mami to be half as good as what it takes to get in. The First Incubator is confirmed to be the leader of the Incubator operations on Earth.

Incubator:
The Third Incubator arrived on Earth long before Kyubey and helped him get started. They shared friendly relations until the Third Warmaster, Ahriman, sacrificed a large number of magical girls in a plot to gain the Blessed Lady's favor. She was struck down by the Ninth Warmaster at the time, Kharn Valnikov, and the Third's contracts were transferred to the Ninth.
It has recently been revealed that not all of the Third's contracts were transferred over to the Ninth Officio. Several rogue squads broke off in a rebellion which nearly cost Murderface her life.
