districts and the wings draft

District 1 / A Corp / The Head - wip

The Head is the Wing that rose above all others, becoming their dictator. (Recheck Angela’s dialogue then revise). The A from A Corp likely refers to the Arbiters, who serve as either its agents, leadership, or both. When people refer to the Head, the Eye and the Claw are often implied to be included. There is not much known about District 1.

District 2 / B Corp / The Eye - wip

The Eye is the Wing that watches over the City for the Head. B likely refers to Beholders. There is not much known about District 2.

District 3 / C Corp / The Claw

The Claw is the Wing that the Head uses as its claws over the Cityfolk. Their employees/agents are called Claws, who are depicted wearing a suit, [head thing], and a highly augmented arm that features syringes that contains powers from other Wings’ Singularities. They are often deployed to take care of anyone who violates the Head’s Laws, such as copyright infringement or failure to pay taxes. On more serious cases, more than one may be deployed alongside an Arbiter.

There is not much known about District 3.

District 4 / D Corp

What D Corp’s name is or the services it offers is unknown. Not much is known about what makes District 4 unique from other Districts, however there are some Smoke War veterans from Old G. Corp that have taken refuge here, though not under great conditions. Some have been found residing in an abandoned Lobotomy Corporation branch. District 4 also features forested areas.

District 5 / E Corp

There is no information regarding District 5 or E Corp.

District 6 / F Corp

F Corp is the producer of Fairies, which are essentially keys that can open anything, physically or conceptually. It’s applications and products are varied, from keys that can open any lock to weapons that can open the bodies of one’s opponents. It can be seen as a counterpart to J Corp and their Locks. There is not much known about District 6.

District 7 / G Corp

G Corp is responsible for spheres that control gravity. Not much more is known about the Wing or District 7.

Old G Corp was a participant in the Smoke War, and augmented their employees/soldiers with insect-like features. Gregor was one of the few if not only one who went through the augmentation procedure without many side effect and remained visually normal sans his arm, and was thus used as a propaganda piece. After the Smoke War and Old G Corp falling, veterans had difficulty surviving due to their augmentations causing others to be disgusted by them.

District 8 / H Corp

There is no information regarding District 8 or H Corp.

There was an Old H Corp that was decimated by the Arbiter Garion prior to her final mission. Beyond that, there is no information about this former Wing.

District 9 / I Corp

I Corp was a participant in the Smoke War. Not much was known other than that they hired fixers to fight for them in exchange for priority to enter a Nest. After the Smoke War, it was revealed that they along with K Corp had changed their terms, and did not grant Nest Migration Permits to veterans.

There is no information regarding their name, services, or District 9.

District 10 / J Corp

J Corp’s Singularity are Locks, which close or lock anything, physically or metaphorically. It’s applications and products are varied, from locking small boxes to preventing a person’s body from being dissected. It was likely developed due to District 10 being a gambling district and also in response to Wishpower, which is itself a semi-Singularity. Wishpower is luck that can be extracted from a person [recheck and reedit].

District 11 / K Corp

K Corp’s specializes in nano technology, which has been used for healing and recovery applications, being able to even regenerate a person’s entire limbs. Their products are most known for coming in the form of bullets (called Hepasomethingchecklater Bullets or HP-Bullets) and syringes. Because of their valuable applications, other Wings such as Lobotomy Corporation and Nagel und Hammer have made agreements with them that involves their products. So far, District 11 is the only Nest where the Nest Migration process has been shown. People who are waiting to get into a Nest will possibly need to sleep in line before they can enter (revise). One known taboo of the district is known, which involves breaking K Corp building infrastructure. Within the Nest itself, the town of Calw formerly resided here, however N Corp Inquisitors had decimated it. Eunbong’s Chicken is also found here. We’ll probably learn more tomorrow lmao

District 12 / L Corp / Lobotomy Corporation

District 12 is currently a vacant district, with the previous Wing, Lobotomy Corp, having fallen. Prior to it’s fall, Lobotomy Corporation was an energy company that many relied on, other Wings included, due to its energy, Enkephalin, being affordable and clean. Lobotomy Corporation’s Singularity was the Well and Cogito, which allowed them to extract Abnormalities which were the producers of Enkephalin. One day, Lobotomy Corporation’s Headquarters ascended from underground to create a beacon of Light that shined across the entire City. There were three days of light, four of darkness, and thus the event was called the White Nights and Dark Days. Following the White Nights and Dark Days, building that was Headquarters was converted into the Library. Due to headquarters no longer being functional, branch facilities were not given support and had initiated their burial protocols.

Following the fall of Lobotomy Corporation, District 12 fell to chaos, with many syndicates and factions aiming to fight for territory in the newly Wingless district and the even the Nest became as dangerous as its backstreets. Spoilers censor: Over time, active factions fighting in District 12 came to decrease as the Reverberation Ensemble and the Library had either crippled or outright wiped out the other factions. After a second releasing of the Light which also released those who died in the Library, the Library was ejected by the Head from District 12 to the Outskirts. End spoilers

Old L Corp (Smoke; not to be confused with Lobotomy Corporation due to recent media referring to Lobotomy as Old L Corp) was the previous Wing before Lobotomy Corporation. Like Lobotomy Corp, they were an energy company, however they were notably stingier with energy cost and their Smoke was considered a terrible pollutant. Due to this, the would be founders of Lobotomy Corporation were able to gather other Wings and Syndicates to fight for them in the Smoke War in order for them to replace Old L Corp (Smoke).

District 13 / M Corp / MDMEnterprises

MDMEnterprises is known for Moonstones, which protects the wearer from mental damage. Beyond that, there is not much information about MDM or District 12.

District 14 / N Corp / Nagel und Hammer

Nagel und Hammer’s (or Nail and Hammer) services involves “canned experiences”. Further details on the mechanics of such a technology is not clear (or at least to me), however rations that are likely to be these canned experiences are described as “mushy stuff” and there has been mention of a “suicide vending machine” (I heard this was in the untranslated leviathan chapers??). Nagel Und Hammer appear to be very strict with their taboos, even compared to other Wings. They hire fixers as taboo hunters for actions like simply recording or watching footage of District 14’s backstreets.

Nagel und Hammer has been described to have always been devoted to scrutinizing the idea of humanity. This, alongside their product being canned experiences, may be why they do not like video recordings and have criticized mechanical prosthetics, although the video recording part is merely speculation. One notable faction within Nagel und Hammer, Kromer and her inquisitors, have not only merely criticize prosthetics but seek to “purify” them.

District 15 / O Corp

There is no information regarding District 15 or O Corp.

District 16 / P Corp

There is no information regarding District 16 or P Corp. However, there may or may not be a connection with the Abnormality, Shelter from the 27th of March.

District 17 / Q Corp

There is no information regarding District 17 or Q Corp.

District 18 / R Corp

R Corp is a Wing that specializes in combat and deploys mercenaries. It’s units are named after animals that start with R, so far, we seen Rabbits, Reindeers, and Rhinos, and there have been mentions of Ravens. It’s Singularity is the Hatchery, which allows them to clone their soldiers. Due to the Head’s laws regarding cloning, no two instances of a person, clone or original, is allowed to exist for more than seven days. As a result, R Corp only clones their soldiers upon death, however they still make the most of it in collaboration with Timetrack. They do not simply clone a new instance of an employee, instead they clone multiple and have them fight until there is only one remaining, ensuring that only the fittest clone may see the light of actual assignments. With Timetrack technology, this “incubation” process can happen for several years within the Hatchery, while in the real world it would never pass seven days.

Because of R Corp’s effectiveness as mercenaries, other Wings have contracts with them and can call for their help, Lobotomy Corporation for example (W Corp too I think?). A notable squad within R Corp was the 4th Pack led by Nikolai, who were responsible for L Corp’s nest. Not much is known about District 18.

District 19 / S Corp

There is no information regarding District 19 or S Corp.

District 20 / T Corp / Timetrack

Timetrack is a Wing that deals with manipulating and storing time. Applications are varied, such as its use in R Corp’s hatchery, allowing the manager in L Corp’s Headquarters to pause time or even reset to a checkpoint in time, or letting a pot cook meals faster. Not much is known about District 20, however.

District 21 / U Corp

There is no information regarding District 21 or U Corp.

District 22 / V Corp

There is no information regarding District 22 or V Corp.

District 23 / W Corp / WARP Corporation - unsure how to word this

WARP Corporation is a Wing that offers the services of WARP Trains, which allow passengers to get from one place to another in just 10 seconds. In actuality, WARP Corporation possesses two Singularities. The technology to open gates between dimensions was actually purchased from a previously fallen Wing, who were not able to commercialize the Singularity. This was due to the uncertainty regarding what’s inside, however this was solved with collaboration with Timetrack who pauses time within it for hundreds and thousands of years, who then collects the time that happens within the trains. Their second Singularity which they owned in the first place, is restoration to a previous status. Whatever happens to the passengers in the train for all those years, can be reset and the passengers would none the wiser.

District 23’s Backstreets is also known to be the only Backstreets that openly partakes in cannibalism.

District 24 / X Corp

There is no information regarding District 24 or X Corp. However, there may or may not be a connection with the Abnormalities, All-Around-Cleaner and We Can Change Anything.

District 25 / Y Corp

There is no information regarding District 25 or Y Corp.

District 26 / Z Corp

There is no information regarding District 26 or Z Corp. However, it is notable in the fact that Z Corp or District 26 does not appear in any known map of the City. It’s existence however, is still implied due to the City being referred to having 26 Wings or Districts.
