@Lady Selune Banks? Tech? God Carolus is gonna hate your guts. As far as I see it, your guys can assure the security of the funds. Though through the SEER prediction program my guys use, investments have bigger returns. Would that be agreeable to you? Just so there is a balance in the world.


BALANCE? THE SWISS DO NOT DO BALANCE!

Yeah, sounds good.

All done I think, just the CEO left to go.

[hider=My Hider]

Aegis International

“Your Security, Our Hands”
(Slogan/Motto)
[.hr][.hr]
Common Name

Aegis or ATI


Origins

Originally Independent Swiss Telecoms, Aegis grew out of a small combined telecoms and entertainment company founded in the late 1990’s. First running only a small variety of TV programs and offering mobile phone contracts, they hit it big and branched out, becoming one of the leading TV news and film companies in Switzerland, Germany and a number of the Slavic countries, leading to the first of its two name changes, this being European International Technologies. It was around this time that they moved away from their primary focus of telecoms as well as entertainment to IT security as well.

With the great collapse edging nearer, they continued their march, until they had begun to become powerful enough to launch their own satellites into space, and were at the forefront of an operation to supply radio, TV, and eventually internet to the entirety of Africa. With the increased focus on IT security, and the absorption of various banks into their business, they made a final name change, this being the now-familiar Aegis Technologic International.

When the Great Collapse arrived, they used their vast funds in order to prop up the Swiss Government, whilst also secretly shifting vast amounts of assets into offshore accounts in Luxembourg, Monaco and, of course, Switzerland, and bought up as much property as they could around these territories to expand their territories. With the complete collapse of the Madagascan government, they saw an opportunity to move into a separate base in Africa, and with the takeover of Italy with Sicily left free, they found the perfect place to locate their new space operations.

With then-CEO ___ being elected in democratically as the president of Madagascar, they set about mass ‘refurbishment’ of the country, bringing it up to the same elevated status as the rest of the countries now under their control, forming the African-Eurasian Aegis Territories, the formal name for the physical land they control (however not the actual company themselves.)

In the chaos directly after the collapse, they offered vast amounts of money in the form of loans to whoever would take them at outrageous interest rates, as well assisting companies who had lost huge amounts due to cyber-attacks to set up proper defences using their technology, which as of now (many updates included,) has never been breached

Their original industry of telecoms had not been forgotten however, and with their base in ___ they officially founded the Aegis Aeronautics Agency, or simply ‘Triple A.’ They attempted to make connection with as many satellites as possible. They also worked closely with AUC in an attempt to make light, resilient shielding capable of allowing spacecraft to get past the layer of ‘space junk’ as it were in orbit.


Leadership

Aegis uses a very simple system. There are four directors, and when one dies or otherwise steps down, it requires a full consensus from the other three to elect a new member. These directors hold enormous power, but are slightly edged out by an elected CEO position, normally called ‘President’ or ‘Holder of the Aegis’ in extremely formal setting. The four directors must elect a CEO from the heads of the company (one cannot be the CEO and a director at the same time,) and whilst the directors handle most day-to-day business in the company, the CEO is important in emergencies, where he or she is allowed to wield executive power (said power can only be granted by the directors.) In order to prevent the director position from becoming hereditary, any direct blood relatives of a director or the CEO cannot become either CEO or director, up to two generations. (So a director’s grandson could become another director.) The CEO can be relieved of his position by the directors.


Major Industries/Brands/Subsidiaries


Aegis Finances- Whilst not the original brand, this is now the most powerful out of all of them, and controls a large proportion of finances across the world. This industry is what makes them truly neutral; anyone attempting to attack them will quickly find their finances frozen.

Aegis Technologic Security- Aegis’ IT security. Relies on their own technology to keep others safe, and prides itself on the fact that its tech has never been breached by a hacker. This is, of course a PR stunt, it has been breached multiple time, but the speed in which they’re able to shut down an attack and physically track down the attacker is astounding.

Aegis Aeronautics Agency: How Aegis keeps broadcasting still. Responsible for satellites in orbit, and desperately trying to figure out a way to punch through the layer of junk orbiting the Earth, their ultimate goal is Codename: Saint’s Rest, a mimic of the Apollo Program almost a century earlier.

Aegis Entertainment International: The original and largest broadcasting company in the world. If you ever wanted TV set up across half the planet, a radio broadcast post in the middle of the amazon or internet in the centre of the Sahara, nobody can do it as efficiently and quickly as AEI. They’ve got half a century of experience behind them, and whilst Aegis has moved away from them as a main focus, they’re still a vital part of the company.


Company Culture

Elitist, aloof and actually fairly ethical, Aegis, bar one or two outliers, make sure to keep good relations with everyone. Their cashflow relies on not pissing anyone off, and whilst clients will quickly realise that they can be arseholes sometimes, they’re damned efficient arseholes who can assure any company that their funds will be safe.


Security Detail

[indent]Curiously, Aegis doesn’t maintain a military. Whilst the AUC’s OzSec has been called in in the past, this isn’t a common occurrence, and they try to remain outside of the quarrels that most corporations undergo. War or peace, it matters not to them, as long as they don’t have soldiers knocking on their door. [indent]

I'm curious about this rp and am wondering if I could still join? also wondering if there is any position for a sort of MGSV corporation, one that likes to keep to the water and get their resources form the sea, the only ones knowing of them being those who buy their products, they rescue people off the street and give them work on the offshore bases collecting fuel, fish or other valuables available below the seabed. it'd start as they being to flesh out into other business, putting investments onto the lands of other corporations, skilled people being hired into the megacorporations of others and slowly feeding money back to the main base, soon buying off certain parts of the company. of course if they are found out then there will be a large change in tactics and a corporation getting that big in the shadows would be a threat, it's a very risky system.

I'd probably toss my hat in again if things were fleshed out more and maybe a reboot occurred.

@Asura Mind if I ask for suggestions on how to flesh things out more?
Also, I'd preferably just continue working off of this thread.

The GM taking on more of a dungeon master role, providing corporations with challenges and such in a round based system. It gives people something to do other than scramble around or sit on their hands.

More defined technology. These corporations are constantly innovating to get a leg up on the competition; they gotta know what has already been invented.

Maybe some kind of stat system because I like gamey aspects.

Pingery time, lets hope this works.
Would any of you be okay with just trying to continue/reboot this preferably in the same thread unless there is some pressing reason we have to move? I will very likely be taking on some of the things with Asura said to try and see what they would do, namely the more Tabletop DM style of role and stuff.
