Megacorporations

The great dragons don’t live alone at the top of the food chain anymore. The day magic reemerged, governments took a backseat to more powerful forces. Corporations became the architects of our awareness. Education, the news, even social media is filtered through outlets they control. Unlike dragons, the corporate agenda is transparent. The goal of every existing corporate structure is to make nuyen. They accomplish this goal well, and as a result, corporations influence the Sixth World more than any other type of employer you will encounter. No matter how little they want to admit it, corporations need shadowrunners the way cars need mechanics. Working for the corps represents the bedrock of what shadowrunners do. We are deniable assets. Our job is to carry out the work given to us, get paid, and forget about everything we just did. Each megacorporation has its own identity beyond the bottom line. That identity presents itself in the kind of work they offer and more specifically, the kind of security you can expect to encounter when running against them.
