Series Canon

Raptor Tec. Industries is a cold, scrupulous and faceless weapons company. But a machine is only as good as its gears, and gears as good as their cogs.
This series shows a side of Raptor Tec. Industries that is hardly ever seen.
A side where R. T. I. has a heart.
A heart as cold as the steel they were made of.

Special Thing

Special Thanks

I would like to thank oGER Toxic for letting me use his interest group for this "fan fiction", for being the one to motivate me to continue this series.

What is the idea of this series?

I wanted to write a series of stories with the interest group Raptor Tec. Industries. I was inspired by what I saw at Marshall, Carter & Dark and Anderson Robotics. Since Raptor Tec. Industries is intentionally conceptualised as faceless, I wanted to show my vision of this "nothingness".

Is this even in the R.T.I-GoI canon?

Yes and no.
Despite Toxic's approval, it's not yet canon for him. I hope that by expanding the series, this will change. Of course, I dutifully abide by the rules of the group, even if it doesn't seem that way in some stories. But first and foremost I try to have fun with the characters.

How can I contribute to this series?

Even though only I have written something so far, I don't want to forbid you to write a story, GoI format or even SCPs for this series. If you have an idea for an article, feel free to contact me via the official INT Discord or Wikidot.
