History
Clovis Bray was a human exoscience corporation that was formed by the House of Bray during the Golden Age.
Dr. Willa Bray was the first person to successfully encode solid matter; this breakthrough led to the creation of engrams
The organization was responsible for a number of cutting-edge scientific and technological breakthroughs throughout Golden Age including "Transmission" and SIVA. While Transmission was intended to enhance the strength, speed, and intelligence of prospective colonists using nanomachines, SIVA used nanomachines to break down matter and reconstitute it in order to rapidly construct entire cities. With the Transmission project eventually being shuttered after it caused unforeseen side-effects in test subjects, Clovis Bray focused entirely on SIVA, which was subsequently completed and approved for deployment. During SIVA's development, Dr. Zarin Shirazi's confidence in SIVA's capabilities led her to neglect adding safety measures such as a kill switch. Following an incident where a test subject was made mute by the effects of SIVA, however, Zarin resolved to propose a failsafe for future nanotech development.
Upon SIVA's completion, the first SIVA replication chamber, Site 6, was built within the Cosmodrome in order to outfit the colony ships.
Following the visions given to him by the Darkness, Clovis Bray I founded a colony on Europa: the city of Eventide and a facility by the name of Bray Exoscience devoted to the Exo program. The researchers picked to work there had little care about ethics and the studies conducted often led to the deaths of some or all test subjects involved. Through the use of a Vex gate the company was able to collect radiolaria, which, exposed to the artifact of Darkness kept by Clovis on a space station orbiting the moon, allowed him to finally overcome the issue of Dissociative Exomind Rejection plaguing the first Exos. The gate became a problem when the Vex began spilling out of it and assaulting the colony, leading to many casualties. The facility was eventually shut down by Elisabeth Bray and Clovis-43.
The largest obstacle in the creation of Exos was Dissociative Exomind Rejection-the human mind was often unable to reconcile its new body. The solution Clovis Bray developed was two-fold: rebooting the mind immediately after transfer, and programming traditional human desires such as eating.
Owl Sector took a particular interest in the former facilities that were run by the Clovis Bray corporation.
Overview
In appearance, Clovis Bray was a Golden Age company that focused on research and technological advancements.
It was said that the goal of Clovis Bray was to destroy the world in order to remake it in their own image. During the Golden Age, they were noted to had brought people from Earth to other worlds and had paved the way for cities and colonies with children being raised on alien planets.
The company was said to had prided itself on its talent and liberality. From construction workers to researchers, they were said to had treated their staff royally.
Creations of the company included:
- Engrams :
- SIVA :
- Warminds :
- Exo :
On Mars, the Clovis Bray center located at the Skyline served as a hub to several company assets across Meridian Bay and beyond with a transit system connecting the various Bray facilities. The corporation was responsible for creating the large skyscraper that was known as the Dust Palace. Mindlabs was sites on Mars that were used to house the cores of the Warminds. Its main facility on Mars was famous for attracting talent.
After Venus was terraformed, it was noted that Clovis Bray had a headquarters situated at the Venus arcology.
At the ice covered moon of Europa, Clovis Bray established a colony known as Eventide during the Golden Age. This site also became the home of the Deep Stone Crypt facility that served as their exo-production facility and a place to study Clarity Control. Around the planet, Clovis Bray maintained an orbital platform called Morning Star that served as a support facility for the Deep Stone Crypt.
