	In late 2463, the [[Zo’ra Hive]] announced publicly a partnership with Zavodskoi Interstellar after selling the rights to the production of the hydrogen rifle, a complex Zo’rane design that is cheap in ammunition. Shortly after, a meeting in [[New Sedantis]] was held with Zavodskoi executives and Hive officials to allow Vaurcae enter their workforce, akin to the synthetic introduction following the Necropolis rebranding. Besides [[Nanotrasen]], Zavodskoi is the other megacorporation that is comfortable in employing Bound assets, particularly in engineering, though they have no issue with Unbound as they are considered similar to the Z.I. synthetics, despite their many differences.

	Before striking a deal with [[Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals]], the [[~~C’thur~~ Hive]] considered a deal with Necropolis Industries as an alternative. However, the proposition never followed through and the conversation between the two parties did not resurface until 2463. It is rumored that the Zo’ra deal with Zavodskoi was made only after C’thur began to sell their workforce mainly to Ingkom. Whatever the case may be, both Hives are now on equal terms with Zavodskoi Interstellar, which has no trouble dealing with them despite their differences.

	Prior to the Solarian Corporate Authority's establishment and the mass nationalisation of corporate assets, Necropolis Industries was one of the primary weapon suppliers to the [[Solarian Armed Forces]], and Zavodskoi Interstellar continues that tradition. Despite the chaos ensuing form the nationalization of corporate assets, including the accusation by Solarian Intelligence Agencies that it was Zavodskoi who murdered former Prime Minister Frost, when the dust settled Zavodskoi was still there, with a majority of its manufacturing facilities, patents, and experience in manufacturing the tools of war still belonging to it. Being realistic, if a state wants arms for its army, it needs Zavodskoi Interstellar. So despite some small withdrawals, Zavodskoi remains basically just doing what Necropolis did before it, selling arms to the Alliance - as well as everyone else, of course.

	In the aftermath of Necropolis Industries' rebranding into Zavodskoi Interstellar, [[Synthetics]] and [[Positronics]] have become more of a common sight in company facilities outside of the [[Empire of Dominia]].

	Newly implemented and with some in the company opposed to their presence, Zavodskoi positronics face systemic fragility within the company. In an effort to employ and contract out the best representation for the company, Zavodskoi will routinely memory wipe, retool, or outright scrap and sell their IPCs for workplace accidents, failure to execute an order, or underperformance. This process has been largely seen as a lighter version of the Burzian Method. This authority does not extend to Zavodskoi Interstellar corporate liaisons although they are encouraged to check in with their positronic contractor personnel from time to time. Therefore, Zavodskoi positronic contractors are often those struggling to maintain a positive evaluation or saved from the scrapyard all together.

	Necropolis Industries was founded in 2259 by Yefim Dementyev, a former aerospace engineer within the Soviet Union, the final step in conglomerating the defense, heavy industry, and medical corporations within the Soviet sphere under one banner (one of the reasons for their operations on [[Pluto]]), primarily to avoid them being bought out by competitors from other regions, such as [[Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals]] and [[Hephaestus Industries]].

The rival corporations to Necropolis were forced to desperately cut costs, shutter facilities, even close entire branches, as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailout the government bailed them out to stay solvent], allowing Necropolis to move into the markets they had abandoned, and in those that the established players didn’t leave, compete with them. They moved quickly, taking much of the defense manufacturing industry from [[Hephaestus Industries]], and a significant portion of the genetics industry from [[Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals]]. This move would be the start of a rivalry that would last centuries.

	Necropolis [[Spurian Economy\|prospered alongside NanoTrasen and the rest of the spur]], and while it was always the smallest and least profitable of the original seven megacorporations, it still became extravagantly wealthy as the technological revolution which followed phorons discovery in the decades after - known as the phoronic revolution - saw [[constant technological advancements]] that Necropolis could employ in defense manufacturing. From communication devices to tanks, and from voidsuits to small arms; for militaries, militias, private security contractors, and asset protection forces, Necropolis was the only corporation offering cutting edge equipment that might make the difference between living and dying in a firefight. It even branched out into cutting edge military specific AI applications. However all of the above required phoron to manufacture. It is during this time, Necropolis would bear witness to the contact with the [[Empire of Dominia]] by the Alliance. The corporation quickly took advantage of the nascent Empire's newness to the galactic stage, and established relations with the Great Houses and Emperor Godwin Keeser himself. From then on, Necropolis and the Empire's intimate ties meant that Necropolis boosted the efforts of not just [[Dominian Imperial Military\|Dominia's conquest]], but the efforts of its [[technology\|genetic modification]].

	Yet there is one discovery that neither NanoTrasen nor Necropolis speak much about, even today, and that is the discovery of the potential within '''[[Phoron\|Diphoron and Phoron Oxides]]''', both colloquially referred to as “[[Phoron\|Weapons Grade Phoron]].” What mudders the waters further is a lack of clarity as to when it's far scarier applications were discovered - those applications being the creation of '''[[Phoron\|Phoron Warheads and Phoron WMDs]]'''. Contemporarily, these weapons are known to exist and may be the end of the Spur as we know it.

	'''Zavodskoi Interstellar''', formerly Necropolis Industries, is the weapon’s development and manufacturing megacorporation of the Orion Spur. Originally founded in 2259 as a mishmash of corporations, the Zavodskoi of today is in a very different industry, instead developing, manufacturing, and then distributing all the tools of war; from light to heavy weaponry, space vessel weapons, ship-building, aircraft, ground vehicles, combat spacesuits, and even military software. While the business of war remains their main focus as a corporation, Zavodskoi also has a significant Security Solutions Branch, split further into civilian and paramilitary departments, the former known for their professionalism. Lastly, they also produce the Z.I. line of positronics, used by all branches of the corporation, but with an emphasis on use in private security and military contracting.

	Since the beginning of the [[Phoron\|phoron scarcity]], Zavodskoi Interstellar has seen, alongside the myriad of issues in manufacturing, research, and weapons development, the scarcity brought, a surprisingly rise in relevance and profits, as civil and international unrest continue to grow across the Orion Spur. As the scarcity continues and tensions - both those between nationstates and corporations - grow, Zavodskoi has made a fortune acting as a merchant of death for all parties; as fighting forces of all kinds continue to grow larger and larger, Zavodskoi is there selling any willing customer whatever tools of war they require . Most notably, its continued relationship with the [[Empire of Dominia]] has earned the corporation an unexpected pretty penny from defense contracts for both the Imperial Army and Imperial Navy, alongside an uncontested market within the Empire, as no other corporation has been able to establish a real foothold there.

	Yet there is one discovery that neither NanoTrasen nor Necropolis speak much about, even today, and that is the discovery of the potential within '''[[Phoron\|Diphoron and Phoron Oxides]]''', both colloquially referred to as “[[Phoron\|Weapons Grade Phoron]].” What mudders the waters further is a lack of clarity as to when it's far scarier applications were discovered - those applications being the creation of '''[[Phoron\|Phoron Warheads and Phoron WMDs]]'''. Contemporarily, these weapons are known to exist and may be the end of the Spur as we know it.
