Demographics[edit]

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Graytch

As families among Graytch are temporary affairs, business affiliations are the closest relationships to Human family bonds. Management hierarchies can resemble blood ties; senior managers hold the status of "family elders", and their employees grant them the appropriate respect and attention. These close bonds make Graytch business ventures slightly more organized and efficient than those of most Human cultures, if only because employee turnover is much less prevalent.

Corporations[edit]

Corporations that exist or have existed within this cultural region include the following:

  • Des-li-ha Corporation: A notoriously ruthless company that operated at Twele in the early centuries of the Third Imperium.
  • Fur-vou-del: A metals corporation that once operated at Twele.
  • Han-ko-chi Corporation: One of the largest Graytch corporations, employing millions across the Imperium. It works in construction (making use of Graytch ease in zero-g) and also constructs civilian spacecraft.
  • Pas-tu-ran Trading: In the first century of the Third Imperium, this company operated traders close to Liigash.
  • Tio-ra-car Research: A small but highly regarded bioengineering firm.
  • Yu-su-ran Corporation: A large manufacturing firm, well-established and of good reputation on the Graytch homeworld of Liigash. It makes a variety of durable goods, including prefabricated products for housing and machine tools.
