“The Crucible corporation was founded in 2085 as a manufacturer of military-grade actuator technology for prosthetics and exometric suits. Over the next 50 years Crucible expanded its business model to include both military weapon and biometric technologies. Crucible survived the global economic and social collapse of 2111 by deploying its own paramilitary force to protect their corporate interests. In 2127 Crucible cordoned off most of of the North Atlantic territory to protect its employees and form the first corporate state of the Americas.” – Taken from Surge: Portcon Edition.
