Helixo

Helixo Corporation: From Energy Titans to Interdimensional Conquerors


Overview

The Helixo began as a powerful corporate entity known as the Helixo Corporation, which dominated the global energy sector in the late 22nd century. Helixo revolutionized energy production through the development of zero-point energy extraction, becoming the largest and most influential corporation on Earth. However, their ambitions extended far beyond the energy industry. After pioneering advancements in quantum mechanics and dimensional theory, Helixo discovered the means to travel between parallel dimensions. This breakthrough marked the beginning of their transformation from a corporate power into an interdimensional empire, leading to a massive expansion that would eventually culminate in the invasion and conquest of multiple timelines across the multiverse.


Origins

The Helixo Corporation was founded in 2150 by Piers Dallen, a visionary entrepreneur who sought to solve Earth’s energy crisis. The company’s breakthrough came with the invention of the Helix Reactor, a quantum-powered device capable of harnessing zero-point energy. By 2175, Helixo had become the world’s foremost energy provider, fueling a new golden age of technological progress. However, this period of prosperity was short-lived.

As Helixo continued its research into quantum physics, its scientists discovered the existence of parallel dimensions, each a slightly different version of their own timeline. Fascinated by the possibilities, Helixo diverted its vast resources toward perfecting interdimensional travel.


Discovery of Interdimensional Travel

By 2190, the Helixo Corporation had developed the Quantum Rift Engine, a device that enabled travel across dimensions. Initially, these expeditions were exploratory, with the goal of learning from alternate timelines and acquiring new technological advancements. However, it soon became clear that many of these parallel Earths were less advanced, lacking the sophisticated energy infrastructure of Helixo’s home dimension.

Realizing the potential for untapped resources, Helixo shifted its focus to exploitation. The corporation began sending expeditions to extract energy, materials, and technology from other Earths, making itself indispensable—and eventually, uncontested—across multiple dimensions. Over time, Helixo’s interests became more imperialistic, no longer content with mere resource extraction.


The Expansion: Conquest of Timelines

As the Helixo Corporation’s influence spread across dimensions, it transformed into a full-scale empire. Using its technological superiority, the newly-minted Helixo Dominion launched invasions across parallel Earths, toppling governments and seizing control of their societies. Their military arm developed advanced weaponry, powered by quantum energies and time-manipulation technologies. Elite operatives who could shift between dimensions at will led Helixo’s legions, making them nearly impossible to counter.

In their most ambitious move, Helixo initiated Chronostorm Protocols, powerful dimensional rifts capable of mapping alternate Earths into their control. This invasion strategy allowed them to crush entire civilizations with minimal resistance, assimilating entire timelines into their growing empire.


The Helixo Authority

In time, Helixo transformed from a corporate entity into a nearly religious authority, known simply as the Helixo. They were no longer bound by corporate profits or even resource acquisition. Instead, they sought total control over all known dimensions, viewing themselves as the rightful rulers of the multiverse. Helixo imposed a strict, authoritarian regime on every timeline they conquered, erasing cultural identities and replacing them with their own order. They used their technology to manipulate time itself, removing key figures from history, altering events, and collapsing dimensions that opposed them.

One of their most sinister methods involved the Chronostorms, violent temporal disruptions that could rewrite reality. Helixo used these storms to weaken or completely erase individuals, even entire populations, from existence. The erasure of individuals became a favored tactic for dealing with insurgents and rebels, as seen in the mysterious disappearance of Jekka Falcyon, the wife of Ash Falcyon.


Resistance and Insurgency

Though Helixo’s dominion is vast, resistance movements have formed across multiple dimensions. These groups, led by rebels like Ash Falcyon, seek to overthrow Helixo’s regime and undo the damage they’ve caused. The Paper Unicorns, an enigmatic faction rumored to possess knowledge of hidden dimensions, are one of the few entities that hold the key to stopping Helixo’s interdimensional conquest.

The ultimate goal of these insurgencies is to disable the Helixo Protocol Chip, a highly-guarded technology that allows Helixo to chart, invade, and conquer dimensions with precision. Without it, Helixo’s grip on the multiverse would weaken, potentially allowing the rebellion to turn the tide of the conflict.


The Helixo Legacy

The Helixo’s legacy is one of unparalleled ambition and ruthlessness. What began as a solution to Earth’s energy crisis has spiraled into a multiversal empire, fueled by a hunger for control. Their use of interdimensional travel has forever altered the course of countless timelines, leaving a trail of conquest, erasure, and resistance in their wake.

Now, as they continue to tighten their hold on reality, the multiverse braces for a final confrontation. Whether the Helixo can be stopped—or if they will become the undisputed rulers of all known dimensions—remains to be seen.

Jorge Wilson

Jorge Wilson, a former Chief of Police of the South Gate Police Department, was a figure who left a lasting impact on the City Stae’s law enforcement and political landscape. Known for his bold initiatives and controversial methods, Wilson played a pivotal role in shaping the security apparatus and political landscape of the country.

Under Wilson’s leadership, the South Gate Police Department established the Gamma Units, a specialized force tasked with protecting the Bluezone border. This initiative aimed to enhance border security and prevent unauthorized entry into the designated protected area. However, this move was met with mixed reactions, as some viewed it as necessary for maintaining order, while others criticized the militarization of the police force.

Jorge Wilson

Expanding on his vision of a secured Bluezone, Wilson further modernized the police force, equipping officers with advanced technologies and tactical training. These measures, although aimed at improving law enforcement capabilities, also intensified tensions between law enforcement and the surrounding slumlords.

Wilson took a controversial approach by using the enhanced police force to invade and suppress the slumlands, seeking to expand the Bluezone Protectorate’s control. These actions drew both support and condemnation from the public, sparking heated debates about the balance between security and human rights.

As a result of his overhanded methods and increasing public scrutiny, Wilson was eventually forced out of his position as Chief of Police by the Executium, a governing body overseeing the City States government and economic affairs. However, his ambitions did not waver, and he seized the opportunity to pursue a political career.

Running for the Prime Executive elections, Wilson utilized his reputation as a strong and decisive leader to secure victory. As Prime Executive, he implemented the LandBond currency model, which aimed to stabilize the region’s economy and promote economic growth. This move drew both support and skepticism, with debates surrounding its long-term impact.

Unfortunately, Wilson’s tenure as Prime Executive was cut short when he was assassinated at the Grand Opera House while giving a speech. The notorious slumlord known as Cancer was identified as the assailant, highlighting the deep-rooted tensions that existed between the government and the marginalized slumland communities.

The legacy of Jorge Wilson is a subject of ongoing debate. While some view his efforts as necessary measures to protect the Bluezone and promote stability, others criticize his authoritarian tendencies and disregard for civil liberties. Regardless of one’s perspective, Wilson’s actions had far-reaching consequences, leaving an indelible mark on the region’s history.

His daughter is the current head of Department 47 (Counter-Corporaterrorism Initiative), Jacinta Wilson.
