Megacorporations of Corporate Space

Arland, Kobayashi, and Chilton-Hoos Corporate Agents.

Here’s a list of most of the major corporations currently inhabiting my Corporate Space setting (that I can remember off the top of my head. I have GOT to organize my notes!!!). I’ve included information on their past characteristics before the mass migration from earth. Current descriptions are harder to convey, as they have all considerably expanded their roles into multipurpose providers as they gobbled up various planets and systems and established themselves as independent technocracies. Whether a particular company may be considered ‘good’ or ‘evil’ is entirely based on one’s particular point of view (read: current employer).
