Serpentis

Salvador Sarpati founded the Serpentis Corporation as a holistic cutting-edge R&D company, with a core comptenency in biochemistry. Rumours of illegal research, shady deals and underworld connections grew in frequency as the corporation moved its operations more and more into lawless space, and by the time the Gallente Federation started seriously pursuing the tycoon and his corporation it was already too late - he had installed himself in Fountain and was all-but untouchable. Today Sarpati is rumoured to live in luxury in his own outpost in Serpentis Prime, while his corporation pursues unfettered research in Boosters and other illegal hardware, and his Guardian Angel allies ensure the security of his domain.

Like their sometime-associates the Guristas, the Serpentis are paying a great deal of attention to recent developments. Their business relies heavily on indirect links to the Federation, and it's rumored that Sarpati still has unfinished business there. Serpentis Corp employees were glued to the newsfeeds as events unfolded, and they're still talking about it today. There's a degree of uncertainty as to how exactly this will affect their work, and many are waiting on the edge of their seats to find out how the Federal government reacts.
