Enzyme
The All-Powerful Enzyme!
The year is 2064, New York (the hub of the countries' technological advances) has become oppressed and dominated by technology. Orthrus Corp and Nanostrasen Industries, the two largest corporations, battle for control over the countries' source of technology. While there are still legal guidelines to try and keep business practices ethical, large corporations hold no moral obligations when it comes to surpassing competition. New York's citizens are pitted between two massive companies. With new discoveries every day, this city is only big enough for one corporation. Who will do what it takes to succeed?The polestar for technological breakthroughs, the city has become the whole world's icon. While it looks sensational from the outside, under New York City's glamours sheet is a grim underworld, filled with dirty cops and power hungry corporations. Large scale heists and senseless murders are common conversation pieces. Most NYPD officials turn their backs and those who don't, end up floating in the harbor. Like a psychotic, megalomaniac hiding behind a mask, New York City is a true force to be reckoned with.
Often considered "The Wasteland", New Jersey is a shell of it's former self. Alternative-power companies, most notably - NanoTrasen, have sanctioned off the state for the purpose of dumping harmful bio-hazards and other waste. Using tall walls and deflector shields, New Jersey withers away without harming surrounding states. Despite the fact that most of the infrastructure has crumbled, the state is still very much inhabited. While the population is relatively high, most residents are far below the poverty line and have been deeply affected by the waste.
Relatively new in comparison to companies such as NanoTrasen, Orthrus has a strong foothold in the military industry. The company's main sell is their highly intelligent, military-grade androids. Selling mostly to armed-forces (both US and private), their presence in New York is focused more on advertising their alternative form of Sirius (Tesla). Orthrus, while never convicted, has been accused of bribery, blackmail, and murder. They have even been suspected of selling weapons to the Bolshevik Syndicate, while arming the NYPD.

The veteran corporation of Sirius energy, located in the heart of New York City. NanoTrasen mainly focuses on augmentations and it's own form of Sirius (Singularity). NanoTrasen remains at the top of the food chain, knocking companies off with their elite advancements. They have been open to sharing space with other corporations, but have begun to expand their reaches throughout the city. Those that don't back down, tend to go under - their COO either getting spooked or mysteriously going missing.

The pride of New York City. It's purpose? To protect and serve those who inhabit it. Despite that being their backbone, they hold the reputation of being megalomaniacs who let their stun batons do the talking. While there are plenty of corrupt agents on the force, there are also many who hold the badge with pride, eager to end corruption. Those who oppose the corporations have to grow an extra pair of eyes, because to the large companies, the only good cop is a dead one.

This underground syndicate, molded in the rubble of New Jersey, has stretched out into downtown New York. While they had openly protested in the past, the McCarthy Act of 2056 outlawed Communist ideologies, prohibiting the freedom of speech on the topic. The radical group now primarily works from the shadows, ranging from small protests to firebomb attacks.
ROLES:
TEMPORARILY CLOSED
Have you lost the ability to use a limb/organ or do you simply want to run faster, jump higher? If either of these apply, then augmentations are for you! With this incredible technology (provided by NanoTrasen) you can become superior to your fellow man! No operation is off the table! Just ask the United States Military, who opened a SO unit dedicated to augmented personnel! If the future is now, why not be super?
These automatons come in all shapes and sizes, serving a verity of purposes. Orthrus Corp's line of androids are strong, intelligent, and unfeeling - the perfect killing machines. While these are the most advertised; regular AI units can help complete day to day tasks, without human error.
