Welcome, Doctor Ellison.

Microcorp Peacekeeper

Figure: AT-43 - UNA Fire Toad

The Peacekeeper program as we know it was established in 2184. Immediately successful, the Peacekeeper mechanized hardsuits proved an invaluable asset when conducting a multitude of operations, from POI defense, to quelling riots, to breach and clear operations. The current model, the V4, is much improved over its past iterations. More agile, heavier firepower, equipped with lethal and nonlethal weaponry.

As of the date of writing, the Peacekeeper program has only experienced seven casualties - two destroyed by King Street Jesters, two destroyed by White Hat, one destroyed by the 12 Burroughs Bomber, one by the New City Resistance, and one currently MIA.




Professor Abraham Scranton

Figure: Horroclix - Gyrus

[DATA PARTIALLY CLASSIFIED: LEVEL 4 CLEARANCE REQUIRED]

After clarifying his intentions to go forward with his plan to strip himself of his "mortal flesh", Professor Scranton was offered a choice: leave Microcorp's employ and be considered non-human as per Microcorp's Humanity Requirements best practices, or become property of Microcorp in his ab-human state and be granted a Conditional Humanity License. Professor Scranton chose the latter.

After his procedure was completed, a failsafe was hard-wired into his chassis in order to ensure his compliance. Thus far, Professor Scranton has served Microcorp faithfully.

Update 7/11/2210: After cross-referencing reports on his whereabouts and actions, it has become clear Professor Scranton's abilities have developed far beyond what he has told us. Psychic research specialist Yi has suggested that Scranton has been feeding his guards and "inner circle" a telepathic vision of what he wants them to see, hiding his true intentions behind a mental projection. This represents an obvious security breach, and I am logging my official recommendation that the failsafe be activated. - Dr. Ellison



Microcorp HR Agents

Figures: Star Wars - Galactic Alliance Scout & Galactic Alliance Trooper

After several attempts to use the bureaucracy of Microcorp against itself, the need for internal and external security was clear. The HR Agent program was founded to provide Microcorp's best assets - its employees - with comprehensive coverage in cases of physical danger. Whether the job is escorting one of Microcorp's top scientific minds, or providing one of our clandestine operatives extra backup, HR Agents provide a valuable service to our community and our workers.

White Hat

Figure: Heroclix - Scourge

Person of Interest #272
Please, call me Walter.
Aliases: Walter Hanover, White Hat, The Ghost, Street Justice
They do like their names for me, don't they?
Wanted For: Destruction of property, murder, arson, assault and battery, theft of physical and intellectual property, threatening Microcorp personnel with violence.
I'd be insulted if you hadn't included that last one.
Microcorp personnel are advised not to approach PO#272 without specialized training or clearance from at least one level 4 personnel. POI is known to work against Microcorp personnel, with them, or ignore them completely. POI seems to operate under his own morality, punishing what he sees as the oppressor. This may sometimes mean Microcorp personnel, and sometimes means other Groups of Interest such as gangs, cults, and terrorist organizations.
My to do list is very, very long.
As Walter Hanover has been considered deceased for two years, it is not currently known how POI#272 continues to appear in public. It is speculated that, using stolen Microcorp technology, Walter Hanover modified his own body to increase his resilience, strength, and reflexes, and conferred the ability to seemingly teleport. It is not currently known how this functions.
Secrets, secrets. We all have them.
All personnel are advised to stay cautious and do not engage with POI#272 until there is no other option.
Ta-ta, gentlemen.
