DelphicWorld

Delphic Industries is a mainstay of Freedom City's economy and a major portion of its revenue. Likewise, its main theme park is a major source of tourism in the city and a place that everyone has brought their children too at least once (Constantine even lets children under the age of seven get in free to expose them to new horizons). Tickets, oddly, have gotten cheaper since the founder has gotten back into the group and are now reasonable with rides' lines now being no longer insufferable.


DelphicWorld[edit]

DelphicWorld is the re-creation of the 1930s established theme park, DelphicLand. DelphicWorld is the heart of a massive media franchise that has since branched out to cover most of the world with its mindless drivel. It's founder, Constantine Urallos, has only recently resumed control of the board of directors after being cryogenically frozen for a number of decades using 1950s technology.


DelphicWorld is built into a number of Lands and Artificial environments that now covers more than a small city in size. In addition to the theme park sections of the amusement center, there's also employee housing, hotels, shopping centers, animation houses, movie studios, and technological research centers with at least one bio-dome. Famous monuments at DelphicWorld include the King Arthur Palace, the NONCOM Golf Ball, and Crash Mountain.


Employees frequently complain that Constantine Urallos expects his company's men to live, breathe, and die Delphic. Those employees who make these complaints usually find themselves swiftly terminated without benefits. Corporate morale is *THE* most important thing at Delphic Industries and anyone who doesn't understand this is welcome to seek employment elsewhere.


Since Constantine retook control over Delphic Industries, it should be noted that employees have an exceptional number of benefits should they sign on as lifetime employees. Just don't expect to have any luck trying to get out of one of Constantine's life-time family contracts. Constantine takes employees attempting to seek employment elsewhere as a personal affront.


Despite the vaguely sinister overtones of DelphicWorld and its founder's employment practices, DelphicWorld is actually fairly beloved by most Freedomversers. Constantine is a passionate liberal and champion of social causes while also believing strongly in laizee faire government. The libertarians could not find a more worthy champion of their beliefs (or so they think). Plus, really, almost every American and European has grown up with at least one of the man's stuffed animal characters.

Constantine Urallos' Secrets[edit]

Constantine is actually a member of SHADOW's Penumbra. Arguably, Constantine is the sanest man there (though that is a case of damning with faint praise).


Constantine believes that government has fundamentally failed humankind and that corporations must step in to guide humanity to the next stage of human evolution. A non-violent man by nature, Constantine disdains the methods of other members of the Penumber and prefers instead to advocate the slow erosion of previous moralities through entertainment while exploring how to survive the inevitable collapse of human society. He is a constant explorer of brainwashing techniques and ways to transform human society through soft methods like inserting fluoride into drinking water or birth control into certain populous' food supplies.


Bizarrely, despite being a pacifist by nature, Constantine is in no danger of being overthrown right now. For some reason, Overshadow genuinely LIKES Constantine and Taurus finds him to be one of the few individuals he'd recruit into the Labyrinth should Shadow collapse.


Appearance: In the words of Homer Simpson, "He's exactly as rich and famous as Walt Disney. Looks a little like him too." He's a remarkably fit man for his late seventies, looking no more to be in his early thirties and there's no sign he's aging a day from the time he stepped out of the frost.


Role-playing Hints: Incredibly personable, 50s dad sort of likable. He has hands like a corpse.
