Umm, not to sound rude or anything, but who are you?

Just a random stranger saying things indirectly to Cristo that I am being butthurt about not being able to RP with the Cristo's last, (imo more epic) app in the future.

That being said... who might you be? Are you planning on joining?

[Oscalantine]

Umm, not to sound rude or anything, but who are you?

Oops, thought you were objecting to my cynical nature.

I am RPing as Korea. Faction atm is Biodirectionalist, Promethean. My app is either in page 1 or 2.

Speaking of, OP, could you possibly link each of our apps? As OOC gets bigger it would be difficult to track everyone down ^^

Corporation Name: Divinity United

HQ Location: Raleigh, North Carolina, United States

Primary Source(s) of Revenue: Providing fast, reliable genetic modifications to infants and adults well into their seventies.

Size (Regional, National, or Multinational): National

History and General Description: Divinity United was founded in the later half of the 21st century by renowned philanthropist Yumash Fonte and his brother Levi Fonte. Having directly inherited the Fonte fortune, the two brothers were multi-millionaires by the age of 23. Expecting to live the remainder of their lives in relaxing silence, insulated by their riches, Yumash was one day approached by a homeless man on the street. The homeless man begged Yumash for five dollars, complaining of hunger and thirst and disease. Yumash inquired if the man had an education, and received a solemn reply. "My mum and pa had me working the streets for the cheapest you could pay, no time for any schooling! Ain't no one want human labourers nowadays, it's robot this and robot that. They're faster, stronger and smarter than most people anyways. Thank you kind sir, at least the one thing people are better than robots at is being human."

Yumash, in a quest to prove the homeless man wrong, used his wealth to set up the Yumash Clinic. His brother Levi offered his wealth to develop the humble branch into a regional competitor, and the name become Y&L Genetic Modifications. Their demographic expanded from more rich customers to a wide range, including infants and the elderly. In his effort to make every human life matter, as if God himself had given everyone a purpose, he settled on the final name of Divinity United. Four years ago, Yumash tracked down the very same homeless man he had met nearly a decade earlier. He was still alive, although in much worse condition than before. Levi commented on how his brother was 'almost glowing' as he wheeled his most recent genetically modified patient out with an improved immune system, increased memory/capability to learn and the ability to gain and retain muscle mass much easier than before. Yumash found out this homeless man's name was Devon Parish, and immediately employed him into his company as a CEO in training. Today, nearly six years later, Divinity United, lead by Yumash and Levi Fonte as well as Devon Parish, dominates the American market. With affordable, dependable genetic modifications that range from increasing cardiovascular endurance, to modifying hair and eye colour, and even eliminating almost all genetic diseases, Divinity United is here to stay.

Sure, Accepted. I really need to start writing down who is accepted, don't I?

[Greater Soviet Ukraine]

My plans? Uplift humanity into a new species, transcending pitiful homosapians altogether in search of new heights that we were destined to be.

Promethians ^^. Well... the lead political party (corporation) is supporting that, and they have no intention to step down. Our country already has quite a progress into the biological augmentation.

Now, my plans for you... my guess is that since your HQ is in Japan, you tagged Korea within your operating range. I am going to be sending specialists (all probably heavily biologically enhanced) to Japan in hopes to snuff Black Phoenix out. Probably not going to happen... but I am hoping that it will make an interesting lore in the process without killing the main casts ^^



Why would I hurt you? If anything, Inovtatium Solutions would be supporting Revivalist movement. I cannot honestly see my main factions arguing with you at ALL. I guess you intended for that to happen, right? XDD

Could i help you out with that?
and woudl you help me out with China and india?
I dont wanna fight you. I like you

I am watching you. One more word and the PLA will be on your sorry arse.

Petur Ingason. We're a cybersecurity and cybernetics company with plans to set up massive virtual worlds in which people can *upload* their minds to - under the full control of Voransky-Sung, of course. Here's the app:

Corporation Name: Voransky-Sung Corp.
HQ Location: (Officially) San Jose, California (Unofficially) Venice
Primary Source(s) of Revenue: Search Engines & Browsers (Ad Revenue), Cybersecurity, Computer OS & Other Software Sales, Data-center Operation, (Lesser Source) Pre-order Mind Uploading.
Size (Regional, National, or Multinational): Multinational
History and General Description: Voransky-Sung was co-founded in 2056 San Jose by the former Stanford professor Alek Voransky and his close friend and Hong Kong Institute of Technology University professor, Lai-Ying Sung. A small startup based around the newly created Vorsung search engine and web browser, the company grew very quickly early on. The Vorsung search engine was the only search engine at the time able to completely circumvent both Chinese and American surveillance and censorship. Voransky had previously served in the American NSA, and Sung served in a secretive branch of the Chinese Military which dealt with cyber-attacks and surveillance. Usage soon exploded within China, which was aggressively cracking down on "perverse and disloyal content." As a result, the US government began to aid the company in its dealings, expanding it substantially. Soon after, as civil unrest began growing in the US, the government began a secretive mass-censorship campaign. The Vorsung search engine soon exploded in popularity in the US - the government quietly withdrawing aid.

As many new developed nations began similar censorship programs, Voransky-Sung corp now found itself in an open war with the world's governments. During this period, the company began a period of rapid staff expansion and diversification of investments. Now controlling its own massive datacenters, Voransky-Sung recognized the danger of keeping such a large amount of dangerous information in the now-hostile US. The company, looking for a place to move, found an unlikely ally in the newly independent state of Venice, which was offering to allow construction of floating data-centers around the island. To minimize scandal, the company maintains an "official" headquarters in San Jose - which primarily serves as a recruiting center at this point.

Faction: Uploaders - The new CEO, Petur Ingason, is a major supporter of the Uploaders - as was Voransky before him. The company is simultaneously developing a practical implementation of both full virtual uploading and the Voransky process. Biological Ioading is lower-priority, but is expected to be relatively simple once the Voransky process is fully developed.
Subgroup (Optional): N/A, Voransky-Sung has a number of packages for offer.
