Indestructible Inc
Become a master of war!Indestructible Inc is the premier manufacturer and seller of military-grade armor, fortification, and other defense. They're a massive corporation with dozens of subsidiaries, standing at the cusp of ascending to the rank of the Megacorporations. From plated windows to anti-air defenses and security Cybiders, Indestructible boast that all their products have been tried and perfected in real conflict, even if they had to start it themselves.
Corporate Fortification
Accept no substitutes; warriors go to war with Indestructible confidence.Indestructible's products can be found everywhere in Megacorpolis, from the armor on private security forces to the deployable barricades used by the criminals they chase. They produce some of the best (and some of the worst) defenses in Megacorpolis, with a sleek and impressive style. They market their wares to anyone and everyone, willing to build a fortress to whoever wants to pay for it. In the grand scheme of competing megacorps, Indestructible has remained neutral and sold to everyone.
This might soon change as the corporation's fortunes continue to rise. A recent partnership has been signed with Legendary You to produce the next generation of "indestructible personal defense." The mercenary world is waiting with excitement to see how Indestructible's armor technology will mix with Legendary's chemical enhancements, while others brace for the carnage that'll probably follow such a release.
It's not our name - it's our promise.Indestructible operatives are present in every high-conflict area of the Megacorpolis. Sometimes, they only observe to see how new weapons function and how they might be countered in real situations. Other times, they escalate gang wars and other conflicts, seed it with prototype and experimental products, and watch the results. Such bloodshed is often recorded and used as marketing material - at least when the Indestructible tech looks good.
Structure
Indestructible has a standard corporate ladder, spawned from a conglomerate of a dozen weapon contractors from when the old world fell. The CEO is Samantha "Sunshine" Ysei, described either as a gifted visionary or a vicious psychopath, depending on who you ask. It has a board of directors, investors, and emissaries from the Megacorporate council.Down the ladder, each department is its own entity and run like a little fief. As long as they produce results, they're given relatively free reigns. When they don't, someone always has to be the first to really try out a new line of body armor.
Corporate Culture
BE INDESTRUCTIBLEWithin Indestructible, everything is second to the image. Indestructible has taken great pains to project the quality of badassery and gritty heroics on their equipment, with a "sleek and sexy" style that "helps consumers look good while kicking ass." This line of thinking has lead to more than a few engineering faults in some products, but consumers knew what was in the liability waiver. It isn't enough to simply be efficient for Indestructible - it needs to look like the best, too. This attitude trickles down to every other aspect of the corporation. Workers are expected to look and act confident. Even where it doesn't matter, decisive action is repeated ad-nausea at every corporate meeting, even if it's just to decisively go print that report. People who can't live up to the image are shunted down the corporate ladder, no matter their performance. Despite this, much of Indestructible's engineering remains top-notch and the people who make the gear take pride in the quality. There's a constant simmering conflict between looking like and being the best, which is encouraged by upper management.
Assets
Indestructible is spread out across the Megacorpolis, with offices and divisions in nearly every sector save for the Omegaplex. Their main office and the bulk of their high-grade manufacturing facilities are located in the Damocles Sector, as is most of their conflicts. Their buildings are well-fortified and heavily defended, often bristling with barely concealed turrets and patrolled by elephant-sized Hunter-Killer Cybiders.Tours must be booked well in advance and the corporation is not liable for any injuries should visitors remove their visitation badge.
The corporation employs tens of thousands in everything from marketing to orbital mining. They are wealthy enough to draw attention and jealousy, with good profit margins and forecasts in the next financial year. The future still looks bright for Indestructible Inc, but as they move into the big leagues, so does their competition.
Important Subsidiaries
Among the many dozen minor subsidiaries, manufacturers, partners, and vendors, there are a few that stand out as being particularly important to Indestructible's long-term business plan.Invincible Entertainment
Producer of video games, movies, and serials, Invincible specialize in power fantasies. Their heroes and heroines are the rugged, never-say-die types who grit their teeth and armor themselves with Indestructible equipment to get through anything. With Indestructible's recent partnership with Legendary, Invincible has risen to even greater prominence and stands at the forefront of a grand marketing campaign.Discount Defense
For security on a shoe-string budget!Discount Defense is where all the failed prototype, manufacturing errors and rejected designs end up. Most DD stores are like scrapheaps filled with a random assortment of things from every branch and department of Indestructible. Discount Defense is there for when there's no other choice.
Safety Security Inc
The Safety Security subsidy combines law enforcement and prison management into one, guarding not only most of Indestructible's properties but also a chunk of the slums in Damocles. They take care of Indestructible's private prisons and make sure that there's always a ready supply of inmates available to stir trouble, test new product units or whatever else Indestructible might need them for.Indestructispeak
Corp-Speak within Indestructible uses a large amount of military jargon, down to where the janitors refer to cleaning a clogged toilet as "ops". Even pencil pushers and product managers talk like they are grizzled vets who's watched a man bleed his last in some muddy ditch somewhere. Those who actually have within Indestructible generally don't talk about it.Corper Families
Indestructible has a few Corper families within it and while most assumed them to come from illustrious warrior-clans or weapon-makers of yore, most come from the startlingly successful Image Department. These Corpers embody the Indestructible spirit, often to the point of lunacy. They are fond of using their own product to prove its superiority and are terrifying specters to the regular workers.Cybernetics
Indestructible has a small but top-grade cybernetics department that specializes in combat cybernetics. They produce everything from the useful to the ridiculous with all the bells and whistles a transhumanist death-machine could ever wish for.Try out integrated palm-mounted flamethrower today and get 15% off your next purchase!
