Tiger Cooperative
The Tiger Cooperative is a shadowed and enigmatic syndicate operating at the intersection of biotechnology, religious fanaticism, and military conquest. Originally conceived as a loose collective of like-minded visionaries seeking biological perfection, it has since evolved into a vast corporate cult with decentralized yet ruthlessly efficient command structures. The Cooperative venerates Changelings- shape-shifting entities of myth and terror, as divine beings, viewing their genetic malleability and predatory cunning as the highest form of life.
Blending esoteric doctrine with cutting-edge biochemistry, the Tiger Cooperative engineers both living weapons and indoctrinated soldiers through a fusion of fervent worship and brutal science. Corporate directives are often handed down as religious edicts, and its "employees" are as much zealots as they are scientists, soldiers, and agents. Loyalty is absolute; defection or failure is met with swift and ritualistic retribution.
While their operations span clandestine biolabs, hidden strongholds, and front companies scattered across the sector, the Cooperative remains largely insular, maintaining strict barriers between their inner sanctums and the outside world. Their presence is typically heralded by outbreaks of bioengineered plagues, disappearances of research teams, or sudden cult uprisings - all signs that the Tiger's gaze has fallen upon a region.
The Tiger Cooperative is not merely a corporation: it is a crusade. A crusade to remake the universe in the image of their sacred patrons - a universe where flesh is mutable, faith is absolute, and survival belongs only to the most perfected.
