Default Stoopid Question: How does my handbrake work?

Might be a silly question (very likely), but here goes...

With the handbrake on, I get some rocking movement.

Does it actuate onto the transmission - hence the rocking, or is there a separate calliper on the rear rotors (haven't seen one, but haven't looked very hard) and if so, why does it allow rocking (mine not tight enough?)?

So if I wanted to do a fully sick handbrake turn, is it possible? Or would I fuck up my transmission?

And never having played with AWD before, I guess I'd need to depress the clutch when doing a handy, or does my clever DCCD work it all our for me?

Cheers, J
