Fractal / FRCTL

In the Beginning…

Fractal’s earliest roots can be traced back to the year 2823, with the legendary exploits of Marthin Vinzer, the founder of the company. With no citizenship, a 4000 UEC loan and a converted cargo freighter, it was Vinzer vs the world, and he didn’t give up. He mapped his own trade routes, weaseling out of the grasp of the megacorps. He gambled excessively, and lived life to it’s fullest on the rim of space. And he followed the one rule he set up: Go anywhere, ship anything, no exceptions. It is this pioneering spirit that guides Fractal to this day.

In the Middle…

No one is quite sure when Vinzer died, but when he did, he had a small company of merchants on his hands. After arguing for ownership, it was agreed that nobody could really own Factal. It was more of a spirit than anything else, a conglomeration of honest traders. To this day Fractal has no head CEO: it’s members care more about a job well done than reporting to a boss, and the name stands not for any one company, but for a group of dedicated and trusted traders.

Today…

In today’s world, corporations like Fractal are hard to find. Still relatively small, they work in and around the rim, taking jobs whenever one is available to take. The pioneering spirit of Vinzer carries on through them; some pilots take a risky route simply because they enjoy the rush. Nobody really minds, as long as the cargo gets shipped and delivered.
