The MomCorp Flagship

MomCorp is an worldwide company, mostly known from it's cornerstore, Mom's Friendly Robot Company that is the manufacturer of most of the world's robots. They also produce the prefered brand of robot oil, Mom's Old-Fashioned Robot Oil. Mom presents an image to the public of a sweet, kind, frail old woman, but this is a façade maintained for PR. Behind the scenes she rules the company with an iron fist, and will lie, manipulate, and even outright steal in order to make the company succeed. The company is among the leading universal industrial trusts and seems to have the market really cornered.
