The following would be posted from a reputable news source:


Data breaches, black-market dealings, barbaric lab testing: medical corporation Roman Enterprise's PR team certainly has their hands full.

Leggatt Roman: Founder and CEO, or mad scientist?

Following a fatal systems malfunction on Roman Enterprise's Nerullian research facility, exabytes of data were compromised and leaked throughout space. What was found was shocking: while it is well-known that the corporation is beginning to develop clones so citizens can resleeve into them to lead better, healthier lives, what goes on behind closed doors is quite another matter.

These clones, in order to be fit to be resleeved, are put through the utmost grueling tests including differences in atmosphere -and lack thereof-, extreme amounts of radiation, and were injected with dangerous viruses to test their durability. Billions of credits have been spent on this research, thousands of clones have died, and the success rate of all of these cruel and unusual tests is 0%: not one of their experiments have survived. Perhaps most sickening of it all is that these clones have consciousness all their own; these human beings are treated like dispensable lab rats.

The horrors Roman Enterprises inflicted cannot be put into words.

In defense of Roman Enterprise's actions, Leggatt Roman responded, "We are horrified and saddened by the way our clones were treated. Roman Enterprises does not condone this kind of testing, which was performed without our knowledge and by researchers operating outside of the organization. Moving forward, we will enforce stricter hiring guidelines to ensure this kind of scenario never happens again."

But the mistreatment of the consciousness-having clones isn't the only dirty deed of Roman Enterprises to be swept under the rug. The corporation not only utilized an actual virus to inject into their subjects, but they also sold it on the black market. This virus-serum, which literally drives the subject mad in addition to extreme emaciation within scant hours, was sold to potential terrorist organization The Eye. From there they tested it on their own members, in addition to innocent civilian populations and even children.

Thanks to Roman Enterprise's data breach, which was deemed as purely accidental and non-malicious, we now know that the initial substance the virus is derived from comes from nearby Roman's research base in the Nerullian system- the company's particular moon, and surrounding planet, was picked specifically because of this hazardous material. Roman Enterprises clearly wants to use this virus for itself, though doesn't mind sharing it with other questionable organizations.

Everyone in the Nerullian system is advised to use caution and protective measures until the Peacekeepers arrive to run preliminary tests; tune into your local news sources for future updates.
To be fair, resleeving robots into humanoid bodies does sound like a good idea.
