Organization Name: Phar-Genix Corporation Profession: Security Services, Droid Manufacturing, Weapon Manufacturing, Star Ship Manufacturing Affiliation:(optional) Phar-Genix holds membership in the Corporate Sector Authority. Despite this, the majority of it's actions work independently from the CSA, and they have been known to completely ignore or, more rarely, go against the CSA Leader(s): Keiran Phar (Co-Founder) Gail Genix (Co-Founder) Kote Kaiden (White Baton Director) Persons of Importance: Name: Keiran Phar Species: Human (Naboo) Age: 57 Gender: Male Appearance: An aging Human with grey-white hair and slate grey eye. He often wears an old Imperial navy uniform that consists of several war medals, though having never been in the Imperial Navy it is apparent he never actually earned them Weaponry: Phar-Genix Model 6 Light blaster pistol (Essentially an easily concealed, light blaster pistol), Virboknife Affiliation: Phar-Genix Corporation Occupation: Co-Owner of the Phar-Genix Corporation Brief History: Born on Naboo, Keiran Phar was an exceptionally proud and cunning man who was also cold and calculating. He was also extremely intelligent and had a keen mind for mathematics. By age 20, he had already commited a large range of crimes, though was never caught. Upon the founding of Phar-Genix munitions, he changed from using his intelligence to commit crimes to using his intelligence to design large weapons with which he could make money. Keiran Phar acts as the calculating, money orientated part of the Phar-Genix corporation Name: Gail Genix Species: Mon Calimari Age: 75 Gender: Male Appearance: Genix is a rather short Mon Calimari, standing at 1.34 meters, and smells strongly of salt and the sea. He has many barbels on his chin, a sign of his age and an abnormally bulbous head, even for a Mon Calimari Weaponry: None Affiliation: Phar-Genix Corporation Occupation: Co-Owner of the Phar-Genix corporation Brief History: Born on Mon Calimari, Gail Genix was gifted with a mind for business, helped by the Mon Calimari's natural tendency to be able to avoid distractions. He has set up several businesses in his time, some of which have failed, and some of which have become successes. Phar-Genix is his tenth founding and his third co-founding in the galaxy at large. Gail Genix acts as the creative and daring side of the business Name: Kote Kaiden Species: Human (Mandalorian) Age: 34 Gender: Male Appearance: Kaiden has black hair and dark brown eyes, he always dresses in his White Baton Uniform and his weaponry never leaves him. Kaiden is always clean shaven and stands upright like a board. Weaponry: T-21 Light Blaster repeater, Vibrosword, DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, Phar-Genix Retractable Energy Baton Affiliation: Phar-Genix Corporation Occupation: White Baton Director Brief History: Born on Mandalore, Kaidens history is colourful and he has been through many different occupations including Mercenary, Bounty Hunter, Warrior and most recently, Director of White Baton, the paramilitary organisation of Phar-Genix. With a mind for tactics, a love of battle and a lack of remorse for his actions, Kote is the merciless sword of Phar-Genix, defending Phar-Genix holdings and sending thugs to destroy other corporations property as a daily course of business. Name: Delta One Species: Droid, Delta Commando Droid Series Age: N/A Gender: Male progamming Appearance: A new, shining droid, equipped with state of the art technology to be effective in combat. He has the letters/numbers D-1 painted on his left shoulder, this is his designation number, which is to be repainted routinely. Delta-1, sometimes referred to as D-1 or simply 1, stands at 6'4 and retains some aspects of the BX commando droid model, though these are mostly only aesthetic. Upon changing vision mode, his eyes change colour. In normal and tactical modes they are lit in a normal white style. In Low light vision they glow green, Thermal vision they glow a blueish red and in infrared they glow a pure red. However, should infiltration mode be enabled, then the eyes will not glow, this comes at the cost of a reduced vision range which shows only in black and white, only useful if the model is in a dark area and expect to be looked at. There is a series of bar codes on the right side which if scanned with the correct equipment reveal more about the droid specifications. Weaponry: Inbuilt Equipment, Phar-Genix Elite Blaster Rifle Affiliation: Phar-Genix Corporation Occupation: Commando Droid Brief History: Delta 1 was rigerously tested for the first four weeks of his activation. The culmination of years of work, Delta One lived up to the expectations of Phar-Genix, and the series was put into production. Delta One, as the longest living droid, was designated the 'Prime'. He is used almost exclusively for protecting Keiran Phar and Gail Genix, as well as missions requiring his level of expertise. Delta Ones hugely restricted first days and subsequent release into the large and overwhelming galaxy has left him with a systematical approach with few emotions, though that is expected to change as he experiences the galaxy. Should his emotion stray to far, he has a viral termination code in his primary memory core which he knows nothing about (Or he does, and has removed it, simply having the tact not to mention it) which can be activated at any time. Military and Civilian Assets: Telos IV: Telos IV, often called simply Telos, was the fourth world within the Telos system, located in the Outer Rim Kwymar sector. Given that it is situated on the strategically-important Hydian Way hyperlane, thus giving it an economic power base, it was somewhat inevitable that Corporations such as Phar-Genix would wish to exploit it. The Phar-Genix corporation used White Baton to instigate a Coup and install a puppet Government. While at a glance it appears the Government is running the planet, behind that facade the Phar-Genix corporation is pulling the strings Bonadan: Corporations quite literally own Bonadan due to the brutal and tyrannical corporatocracy known as the Corporate Sector Authority. Phar-Genix owns the largest percentage of the world and effectively own the planet. In deals with the Corporate Sector Authority, White Baton Security was installed as the planets police force. Phar-Genix Munitions: Phar-Genix Munitions was the original company famed for producing weapons and equipment. It supplies White Baton with it's Energy Batons, Blaster weaponry and other equipment. White Baton Security: White Baton Security was originally formed mostly out of Thugs looking to make some credits. As Phar-Genix grew and became better known, these hired thugs became a threat to the companies image. As such, they were fired and replaced. At the current time, White Baton is a Paramilitary force that not only holds contracts in personal, corporate and sometimes planetary security, but also serves as the muscle of Phar-Genix. White Baton Security has massive numbers and numerous contracts throughout the entire galaxy. White Baton has come to be known as Phar-Genix private army and rivals the power of some official armies, making wide use of Phar-Genix equipment, droids and ships. There are rumors that White Baton Security has shady underworld dealings and that Phar-Genix hires out White Baton Security and Assassin Droids if a client is willing to pay a price. Phar-Genix has denied these claims. While White Baton does have some standard issue equipment, the majority of their equipment has been brought over time, meaning that their fleets can look non-uniform. Land forces, on the other hand, possess a much more uniform structure. They use Phar-Genix produced security battle armour, Phar-Genix produced Energy Batons, Phar-Genix produced heavy blaster pistols. The standard issue weapon for Sergeants and above is the Phar-Genix Elite Blaster rifle, while Standard Issue weaponry for those below Sergeant is a modified KX60 Blaster Rifle. Gentik: Gentik specialises in Computer Systems manufacturing and creating advanced Droid Brains. Under Phar-Genix it has exceeded it's previous levels after several successful droid ranges. Along with it's work creating Phar-Genix droids, it is lesser known for it's equally profitable holocron and terminal productions. It's Computer Systems are incorporated into ships created by Phar-Genix ship yards Compart Corporation: Compart Corporation is the main powerhouse of Phar-Genix. It mass produces the bodies for Droids and the parts required for creating the ships in the Phar-Genix ship yards. Phar-Genix Ship Yards: Phar-Genix shipyards makes a variety of craft ranging from Fighters to Battleships. Craft can be custom made should the client be willing to pay the additional prices, and they have many different ranges and supply several factions throughout the galaxy. Brief History: Phar-Genix Was set up part way through the Clone Wars, originally entering a crowded market and failing to win contracts for the Republic in spite of their best efforts as the Republic was not interested in the weapons presented to them. Towards the end of the Clone Wars Phar-Genix were on the verge of collapse after failing to enter the market. But following the Clone Wars, the Empire started a process of stabilization and expansion of the economy. While the Imperial Period saw some increases in state control and centralization of economic procedures, it had little effect on the galactic economy, as witnessed in the virtual non-existence of inflation. The Empire did nationalize some corporate entities, though such actions were mainly reserved for those companies that were part of or supported the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and later those who favored and aided the Rebellion. The Empire did assume direct control over some of the spoils of war from the Separatists, but most of the assets were given over to loyalist companies, and Phar-Genix was counted among these, finally allowing it to enter the market properly. By the time of the Gentis Coup, it had bounced back from the verge of collapse at the end of the Clone Wars and in less than a year became a profitable, if small, company. After the Gentis Coup, there was a sudden rise in demand for weaponry as Chaos reigned and the company made huge profits selling to many sides of the conflicts. They expanded rapidly, and acquired Gentik, a company specialised in Computer Systems manufacturing. This lead to the first line of Phar-Genix Battle droids. The Droids programming was above average, but product testing showed the designs of the bodies to be heavily flawed, and as such the droids bodies were quickly scrapped and the Droid brains sold off separately. Phar-Genix founded a Security Service known as White Baton Security, after the white Energy Batons used by it's members. Many security personnel employed by Phar-Genix were recruited into White Baton Security, with others released as the contracts fell through. White Baton Security drew it's other, less respectable recruits, from street thugs looking to make some credits. Phar-Genix expanded into Star Ship Manufacturing, creating a company called 'Phar-Genix Shipyards', shortly after the formation of White Baton Security. Phar-Genix Shipyards originally specialised in production of fighter and bomber craft. Four years later Phar-Genix proceeded to acquire Compart Corporation, a company which mass-produced various types of droid circuitry and components. With the ability to mass produce the parts required, Phar-Genix produced a second line of Battle Droids. This was the first line commercially available (At least legally). With an upgrade to the Droid Brain from the original model, as well as now properly produced bodies, they became commercially successful to some degree. A mere two years after that and four years prior to the current date Phar-Genix purchased large areas of Bonadan as well as the operations of many smaller corporations that were set up there, performing hostile takeovers by purchasing the stocks in large amounts. Smaller Private Companies who refused to sell out were coerced into finally giving in to Phar-Genix demands. A set of deals with the Corporate Sector Authority as Phar-Genix slowly rose to a more prominent position within it gave White Baton the privilege of being the police force of Bonadan, effectively handing over control to Phar-Genix. Phar-Genix and the other large Corporations on the world seized up smaller corporations using White Baton to devalue rival property and coerce potential rivals Just over a year ago, Phar-Genix acquired the planet of Telos IV. The Phar-Genix corporation used White Baton to instigate a Coup and install a puppet Government. While at a glance it appears the Government is running the planet, behind that facade the Phar-Genix corporation is pulling the strings Other: White Baton Military Unit Designations Security Force - Four Corps led by a Security General Security Corps - Ten Divisions led by a Security Superintendent Security Division - Two Brigades under the control of a Security Division Leader Security Brigade- Eight Contingents led by a Security Commander Security Contingent- Four Detachments controlled by a Security Major Security Detachment- Five Sections led by a Security Captain. Security Section - Four squads led by a Security Lieutenant. Security Squad - Two Security Teams, led by a Security Sergeant Security Team- Four Man Unit, Led by either a Security Sergeant or a Security Corporal Patrol Unit- A Two Man Unit Major Products: Phar-Genix Retractable Energy Baton: The signature baton issued to White Baton security, it was designed by Phar-Genix munitions for White Baton, but found some popularity among other Security Forces in the galaxy due to it's compact, cheap but reliable design Phar-Genix Model 6 Light blaster pistol: Very much an 'upper class' blaster, the Model 6 Light Blaster is highly expensive and weak hitting, but small, compact and surprisingly accurate. Phar-Genix Model 102 Heavy Blaster Pistol: Practically the Polar Opposite of the Model Six, the Model 102 is heavy hitting, cheap and rather bulky with moderate accuracy. It is issued to White Baton forces as a side arm Phar-Genix Model 5 Elite Blaster Rifle: Essentially, the design was copied from a DC-17m ICWS that was brought from scavengers who had salvaged it on Geonosis. Phar-Genix made aesthetic changes to it, but the internal workings, and the attachments, are mostly the same, albeit updated to more modern standards. This weapon is sold openly for a hefty price, and is issued to Phar-Genix assassins and higher ranking White Baton members Vengence Class Frigate: A Frigate Class ship that is renowned for it's cost-effectiveness and reliability (Unlike it's smaller cousin, the Vengence Class fighter), the Vengence Class Frigate has become used widely by pirates for it's relatively cheap pricing and surprising speed. It is also used by White Baton for system security and es courting transports Exalted Class Destroyer: A highly expensive ship, but well worth the asking price. Quick and deadly, though relatively small compared to other counter parts. Despite this, it has turned a large profit in the market for Phar-Genix, and like the Frigate, is used by White Baton for escorting transports Vengence Class Fighter Bomber: Perhaps one of the biggest flops of Phar-Genix as a whole. It was over priced and unreliable, with poor maneuverability and sub-par weaponry. The product was quickly retired after just a year of service and replaced by the far superior Phar Genix I92 Fighter Bomber. Despite this, it has limited usage within White Baton, and has been sold on the Black Market (Mostly to unsuspecting individuals who believe they are buying the more reliable I92 Fighter Bomber due to aesthetic similarities) Exalted Class Destroyer: A highly expensive ship, but well worth the asking price. Quick and deadly, though relatively small compared to other counter parts. Despite this, it has turned a large profit in the market for Phar-Genix, and like the Frigate, is used by White Baton for escorting transports Maurauder Class Cruiser: The Maurauder Class Cruiser is akin to that of the Tartan Patrol Cruiser, and fulfills a similar purpose. Ironically, while it was not a stolen design like several other Phar-Genix products, it's design leads to some allegations that it was. Gamma Battle Droid Series Model One: The mainline battle droid produced, sold and used by Phar-Genix. Cheap, easy to mass produce and cost effective, the Gamma Battle droid is commonly armed with light weapons and used for security, as well as sold for comparatively cheap prices Gamma Battle Droid Series Model Two: The second variant of the mainline battle droid produced, sold and used by Phar-Genix. It is more expensive to produce, but stronger with better armour, more advanced systems and even a built in electrical stun system. Phar-Genix Standard Battle Armour: The Standard Security armour used by White Baton. It is durable, light and contains air filters as well as a limited HUD system, mostly providing limited tactical information. It could also be pressurised to allow White Baton to work in Vacuums, though this function is rarely used Phar-Genix Exalt Battle Armour: The Elite Security armour used by White Baton, retaining the functions of it's predecessor and more. It is more durable thanks to more duraplast plates and better alloys, slightly heavier and has support for external attachments such as a range finder, as well as a much less limited HUD system which has alternate vision modes. In addition, it has a retractable vibro blade and deflector shields as well as. Issued to Lieutenants and above, as well as Elites and Veterans in White Baton Delta Commando Droid Series: The Delta Commando droid is Phar-Genix experimental Commando droid, designed to replace it's Assassin droid. The Delta Series incorporates light sabre resistance materials such as Beskar into it's design, as well as a wide range of equipment. It is a highly deadly, effective and versatile droid, but costs the upkeep of an entire White Baton detachment for a month simply to produce Gauntlet Vibroblade, Mounted on the right under arm, this is occasionally used for close combat fighting but is mostly used for quick kills Wrist mounted Blaster, Mounted on the right arm, above the right hand. This blaster fires powerful blaster shots at their opponents, but has limited fire rate, making it used more as a secondary weapon Wrist mounted launcher, mounted on the left arm, above the left hand. It is also capable of firing poisoned darts and a grappling hook Primary memory core: The memory core is very complex, the droid is designed to pick up skills along the way via observing or doing an action. This has the side effect of possibly developing a 'personality' based on what they see and hear. As such, the Droid has an ability to adapt that is beyond most other droids. Unfortunately, this increases the possibility of the droid betraying it's creators should it decide that one function supersedes the other. The Solution was the implementation of a secondary memory core which will be activated when the primary core is disabled. The secondary memory core is programmed to be a combat droid and the creativity of it's primary counter-part. Beskar laced structure: Light saber resistant materials are laced into the droids primary structure materials giving a resistance against lightsabers and thus evening the playing field against Jedi. Magnetised feet and hands: The droid has magnetised feet and hands for use in zero gravity operations, as well as walking along metallic surfaces. The Delta series are known to use this for infiltration Thruster pack: The delta series have built in thruster packs for zero gravity infiltration as well as traversing terrain and heights. It's often used to give the droid a quick escape if outmatched Computer spike and security spike: A computer and security spike is mounted on the left under arm and is useful for opening locks and hacking into computer terminals, after which any required information would be copied to the Droid Upgraded Commando personal shield: A personnel shield that provides additional protection for the droid, but like most personal shields, collapses when under constant damage. As such, it essentially provides a mere defensive boost Vocal Mimicker: The Delta series has a vocal mimicker akin to that used in the old BX series Commando Droids, which they occassionally use to trick their opponents into believing they are allied
