Bering

Bering was an American genetics and cloning company that was founded in 1979. It employed some of the brightest minds in the world of genetics.

History
In 1979, a group of entrepenuers financed a a team of twenty scientists coming from many biotech fields including genetic manipulation, cloning, and extrasensorey perception.

The group operated mostly underground with few direct public interactions. Mostly the group was known as Meteor, Pathos, Gloster Inc, and Haggard. None of these companies were real, but were instead shell companies that held few assets and could be closed without the loss of excessive revenue.

Gloster Inc. was sued in 1980 for holding test subjects for extended periods of time without their consent. By the date of the hearing Gloster Inc.'s two buildings had been demolished and their computers moved. All personal associated with the company disapeared.

Haggard took on the assets of Gloster when it "vanished". However, Haggard itself came under investigation by the Chinese government for similar experiements. In 1983 Chinese special forces stormed a Haggard research facility only to discovered it was an empty building.

Pathos Division
In 1989 Pathos became a full fledged department that specialized in the study and weaponization of ESP. They were moved to Brazil to avoid American taxes and license requirements. Their sole creation, was a way to seperate consciousness from a brain and place it into digital media theoretically making it possible to place human thoughts into a machine. Unfortunately a common side effect of the process was the creation of dangerous psychic monsters called Taurants. The company continued to work up until the onset of the plague trying to find away to avoid this.

Excreodi perfectus
The main genetic research division was constantly ahead of the curve when it came to genetic engineering and cloning. Their most famous creation was the Excreodi perfectus.
