RvneTek Corp.
Headquarters: Byfroest City
Nationality: Midgardian
Specialty: Machinery and Magic
Storefront:

The RvneTek Corporation is a corporate world government (or rather, known world government) ruling the continent Midgard, the presumed only landmass in the world (which, in question, does not seem to be RL Earth, but some norse fantasy setting). The RvneTek rules through a clever combination of steampunk style machinery with the ancient forces of magic, "crystalized" in the magic "Runes". The corporation's name is thus a combination of the word "Rvne" / "Rune" and "Tech" for "technology", and always given in CamelCase.

History

Little is known about the early history of the world of Midgard. Apparently, 1000 years before the events of today, a malevolent "force" of some kind attacked the planet, which was then a purely fantasy tech place. A long war followed, at the end of which the invaders were either defeated or put into a magic stasis. However, as a result of the magic battles, the planet's landmass broke apart and large parts were covered with water. The energy teared holes into the surface of the earth and changed the climate. One of the remaining land masses was the continent of Midgard. During the Ancient War, a small blacksmith had produced Golems for the war.

Guild Wars

Runes

Runes are the corporation's source of power. It is said that when the gods died sealing the ancient evil, their knowledge flowed into the magic symbols known as Runes. Any sentience perceiving and knowing Runes can draw upon the power of the god associated with the Rune. The corporation, of course, quickly seized control of most Runes to prevent anyone from gaining control over the divine powers. In older times, oil seems to have been an energy source on the planet, since an old oil rig can still be found rotting in the ocean around the Cyberia Sprawl.

Services and Products

The Corporation does not seem to be focusing on any business anymore. Apparently, it merely collects "taxes" from subordinate business, like the large entertainment facility "Aqua Park".
