Terminus Group

The Terminus Group is a privately owned securities and technologies company sponsored primarily by three families: The London-based (Silver Fang) Townsend family, the New York-based (Glass Walker) Chavez family, and the Colorado Springs-based (Glass Walker) Altimari family.

• Note: The Corporate Wolf camp of the Glass Walkers has a hand (unsurprisingly) in Terminus Group activities, but the Group is not beholden to that camp.

General Information

The St. Claire offices specialize in the creation of security technologies (through the use of talens, fetishes, and spirits as necessary), the protection of items (and persons, as necessary), and reclamations of stolen properties.

As part of the negotiations, the Silver Fangs have agreed to make no tribal claims on the company, and have ceded rights of territory fully to the Glass Walkers. (The Fangs, however, are still important sponsors and staunch allies of the group. As such, Fangs are generally made welcome, offered asylum, etc. as appropriate to the situation.)

Naturally, Glass Walkers are welcome to visit, provided they don't interrupt normal business. All Walkers will be provided with the code necessary to use the service elevator to get to the (veil-safe) third floor. This password will be changed often, so don't lose those email updates! This is just an IC precaution in case someone should get captured, etc.

The full amenities of the Terminus Group building, however, will be available only to employees (as they will need proper clearance and so forth). Any Walker who wants to be an employee can; a place will be found for you. This is just to prevent random new bloke X from trolling on up and yanking whatever or causing a ruckus without being vetted through other means first. (The one exception to this rule will be the Walker Don, who will always be granted full access.)

Mission

The Terminus Group maintains the following objectives:

• To create a friendly and stress-free work environment.
• To innovate securities technologies (software and hardware).
• To maintain a sparkling reputation as a firm that is both reliable and vigilant in either protecting or reclaiming items and information of value.
• To support and improve local communities.
• To have a small carbon footprint.

Security

Being a securities firm, the Terminus Group building has state-of-the-art security which includes CCTV cameras, motion and thermal sensors in sensitive areas, security guards with metal-detecting wands and so on as necessary. Glass Walker ingenuity has further enhanced the place, placing the servers behind redundant firewalls, and (as IC allows), convincing spirits to help look after things.

RP Hooks

How to get involved.

• The Terminus Group is open to making contracts!
• ONSen/Plots can be run involving the protection of items/persons or the reclaiming of items; attempted break-ins and theft from the company; corporate politics/shenanigans and so on.
• The Group is open to involving other families (tribal association doesn't matter up front), or recruiting more individuals from the founder families (talk to Charley, Ishmael, or Holland as appropriate).
• Need a job? Talk to Human Resources. (Again, tribal association doesn't matter.)
