The Cross Export Corporation originated with the old blood and money of Arkania. While it began as a means for the Cross family to gain greater control over the sale of their diamond production, it was quickly used as a branch into the criminal elements of commerce. From there the export company became just as much about smuggling as it was about the sale of goods. Now it has expanded its range somewhat to production, specifically in manufacturing certain chemicals and stimulants, but its main dealing is the same as it has always been, the moving of goods from one location to another.
RATIONALE
Damien Cross was born the first son of Lord Asher Cross, the man that owned the Cross Export Corporation before him. Damien was mentored by his father on the topics of leadership, and how to expand their enterprise when he took over the helm as CEO. When Asher was assassinated by a bounty hunter collecting a purse, control of the company fell to his heir, Damien. Now Damien runs the corporation with the same ruthlessness his father did, with the aid of the family that's been left to him.
