DESCRIPTION

GDI has been around for decades, owing its inception to the First Great War in recent history when the Galactic Alliance unleashed massive tax incentives for companies willing to dedicate infrastructure to support the war effort. During the rebuilding process following the war, several smaller companies pooled what resources that remained under their control to create Guardian Defense Industries, using their combined mastery acquired during the war to jump start the industry once again. Over the following years, GDI rose in both influence and capability, furnishing reliable and innovative weapons systems to local jurisdictions and major sovereign nations to rebuild devastated security & military forces. As their reputation grew, GDI eventually morphed form a conglomerate of multiple companies into a massive singular entity, expanding into other markets to ensure its stability should future conflicts arise.

Now, GDI stands as one of the keystone purveyors of defensive technologies either for personal use, law enforcement, or paramilitary organizations. Rumors have arisen that the company has involved itself in borderline testing and research practices to maintain a competitive edge amongst its rivals, but this has not been confirmed.

RATIONALE

Martin Draigo has spent the majority of his adult life in the corporate environment of GDI, coming aboard as an intern shortly after their consolidation into a centralized industrial empire. Over the following years, Draigo distinguished himself within the Cybersecurity division, and quickly ran the gamut within the other major branches of the company before rising to upper management. At this point, his charisma and keen business acumen combined with his ruthless persona, allowing him to successfully rise upon his rivals into the notice of his predecessor. Upon said predecessor’s retirement, Martin was chosen as his replacement much to the chagrin of those he surpassed. In the years that followed, however, Martin has led GDI into a seeming ‘golden age’ as a company, solidifying their reputation as a mainstay brand of defense technologies for the greater galaxy.
