| - The roots of this company stem from a Protodermis harvesting corporation. Frequent and expensive repairs to machinery due to protodite attacks caused the formation of a sub-sector of the company that was charged with the task of removing the protodites from the area to prevent them damaging the equipment. Finding that harvesting the protodites worked better than trying to repulse them or exterminate them, the sub-sector's budget allowed some research finances to be expended. Upon research of the protodites, and many experiments, it was found that they could not only be tamed and bred, but that there were ways to 'program' them, enabling the use of these protodites to repair damaged equipment. Further experimentation found the development of 'living' machines formed entirely from the protodites. The first successful organism, the robot called Lefty, was both a triumph and a catastrophe. Highly intelligent and full of initiative, Lefty took over the sub-sector and the entire company through political suave- blackmails, extortions, unfulfilled promises, etc etc. Switching the company to focus more on the construction of machines like himself- with differences in programing to prevent a takeover like he had pulled off- and the harvesting of protodites, Lefty and a select few of his workers and products made the journey to Alveus-abeo to set up their newest outpost and attract new customers. Unfortunately, the venture quickly fell through due to a massive natural disaster that resulted in the complete obliteration of their outpost, and so Lefty had the remains of the company packed up and moved across the seas. Using his Matoran employees as the go-betweens, Lefty had managed to procure a small area within No-kiri- a very run-down factory and warehouse. Great leaps and bounds have been made in the fields of medicine and genetics recently. It has been found that the protodites can not only be programmed to be appliances and objects, but can be programmed to hunt down and destroy diseases and bacteria and viruses within the body. They have even been found to enhance selected attributes of a person such as speed or strength and even grant attributes to people that had not yet existed. Unfortunately, these enhancements and generation of abilitys only apply to organics, and cannot be used to imbue a fork with the ability to shoot flame. Though a fork-with-flamethrower-attatchment could easily be made.
