Corporations of Cyberian Knights

• AEON: Though a Major player in the Corporate world not much is known about the inner workings of the company. Publicly they are an inovations company leading the way in computers, cybernetics, genetics, general consumer goods, and medical services. Over 60% of all general goods wear the AEON brand and all hospitals use thier advanced medical technologies. There are rumors that there is a darker side to the company. Recently lawsuits have been levied by private parties suing for information regarding possible illegal genetic research. Currently theses lawsuits have been stonewalled by company lawyers.

• ARC-Tech: The developer of Arcane Conduction technology, they supply power to the residents of Cyberia through the use of their exclusive technolgy the ARC-Reactor. ARC-Tech is a leading energy production company with interests ranging from Engery Production to Military and Civilian Defensive and Offensive Technologies. They currently have an exclusive contract with Broad-Hammer Industrial to develop ARC-Batteries to power all their military and Civilian Vehicles that they produce. Resent terrorist attacks on ARC Stations have the company on edge.

• Broad-Hammer Industrial: An industrial powerhouse, their business plan is simple but effective make your goods indispensible to the populace. They are the only manufacturers of ballistic firearms, and are the leading producer of automobiles and civilian hovercraft, and military vehicles.

• Ryujin Heavy industries: Once the big kid on the play ground, they are one of the reasons for the current state of things. Though levied with numerous economic sanctions they are still a major player. They are exclusive developers of Teleportation technologies, also they have recently start selling to both civilian, corporate, and military their latest technology, Power Armor. Most belive that this is grand standing to help with their public image. Rumors indicate that officaly they are limited in thier influence they are still a powerful force on the City Council.

• Syvahn Pharmaceuticals: The leading developer in Bio-tech augmentations and in medical technologies. Though the other reason the world is like it is. SP recieved few sanctions against them due to the fact that they were not the aggessors. They have numerous law enforcement and military contracts for their augmentations, which keep them in the black. SP recently filed with a City Council a plan to build Charity Hospital designed to help low income families and idividuals.
