Eversafe Enterprises & Subsidaries“Living ever safe and ever secure.”
Eversafe, headquartered at
Moline city, is the mega corp specializing in defenses and security. The
Eversafe Showroom is
its retail chain outlet found everywhere in the Frontier. They have the
contract to produce off the rack Royal Marine and Royal Guard uniform
defensive suits. Individuals looking to buy approved extra uniforms can
always find the standard BDU skien suit and dress uniform skien suit at
their base exchange but Eversafe marks these items down 10% to draw in
the military customers and try to up sell them other defensive gear.
They also produce approved grid and albedo suit versions of the BDU with
the appropriate rank and insignia regalia. Almost every show room has a
test room (more like a firing range) to do public demonstrations of
their product.
Almost always found in conjunction with the
Eversafe Showroom or as a part of it will be retail sources for
Eversafe’s subsidiaries;
Wokeekoo Scanner Manufacturing and Mikooc Cardlock Manufacturing Firm. All of there products can be found in the
Eversafe Catalog, produced in electronic and plasti-paper versions.
Guardall Inc,
by virtue of home turf, is the major security firm on Clarion. At times
when the Crown has deployed military units to other star systems the
government has contracted to Guardall for replacement personnel. They
maintain small offices in every city on Clarion for the purpose of
recruitment and sales. Personnel and equipment are deployed from central
depots. Because of the laws enacted 100 years ago requiring all mega
corps to demilitarize Guardall is perpetually under scrutiny. For this
reason they have a long practice of hiring Royal Marines, Royal Guards,
and other domestic police personnel. They emphasis a non-confrontational
but firm approach to security and their agents are quick to involve the
local police and will not turn a blind eye to illegal activities.
Despite the company’s reputation for whistle blowing they are still the
most popular security firm as no corporation wishes to follow Streel’s
example and be barred from doing business on the planet. The unwritten
rule on Clarion is any corporation trying to penetrate the planet’s
market must hire Guardall as a signal that they intend to play by the
rules.
Clarion has never seen a corporate war and the Crown will
never tolerate such behavior. For that reason many corporate executives
view the monarchy on Clarion as oppressive and some mega corps funneled
money into the coffers of the
Liberation Front. If it wasn’t for this financial backing that terrorist organization would have died out long ago.
AIPS, though maintaining a headquarters on Clarion, does most of its business here through the subsidiary,
Nova Nuclear Incorporated.
Nova Nuclear is the dominate player in the rich uranium market on
Clarion. They’ve become a major synthesizer of atomic star ship fuel
with significant contracts with Space Fleet and many militias.
Star Play The Star Play Lounge and the Stars at Play entertainment complex chains are well represented all over Clarion. Certain independent operations have greater popularity, like the
Raptor’s Roost
in Port Royal but the name recognition of the Star Play Lounge is so
strong that Star Play has little to worry about despite moves by the
Raptor’s Roost to expand to Clarion Station.
PGCA
popular statement by PGC executives is, “A planet without a PGC
presence just isn’t civilized.” It’s actually meant as a dig against Streel but carries a certain element of truth. Pan Galactic Corporation
is literally everywhere (except New Streel of course).
StreelConspicuous
by its absence, Streel is now banned permanently from doing business on
Clarion. The ban has been a priceless opportunity for local businesses
to thrive in its place. After
the Battle of Planaron and
the assassination of King Leotus, Streel's connection to terrorist and pirates was out in the open. Conspiracy theories abound
concerning their connection to the assassination. The company is fairly
open about their support of the Liberation Front but covers its
involvement just enough to prevent Star Law from getting involved (not
that Star Law doesn’t have open files on this matter).
