# The ZEZRAN Corporation

## ZEZRAN Corporation

The ZEZRAN Corporation was established in 1981 following a significant incident known as Operation Yellowmind. During this operation, a yellow unidentified crystal submerged underwater was shattered, leading to the release of hazardous chemicals into the water. Consequently, a wave of extraordinary unrest ensued as unfamiliar creatures emerged from the depths, and the contaminated water proliferated throughout the oceans and sewer systems, rendering it unfit for consumption. During a time of crisis, The Corporation emerged as a peacekeeping entity, taking on the role of actively combating the creatures' attempts to prey on the population.

In an official capacity, The Corporation partook in numerous confrontations against ESS Wildlife colonies, strategically deploying explosives and fire to eradicate their nests. This approach aimed to impair the creatures' ability to reproduce and ultimately compel them to retreat back into the rivers. The ZEZRAN Corporation, on the other hand, was left isolated to confront the enemy on its own, as the Timo-5 Government had relocated to non-threatened planets. In this situation, the ZEZRAN Corporation leadership took on the crucial role of not just maintaining peace but also governing the remaining inhabitants.

Following an intense 24-hour battle, the Corporation effectively defended against the genocidal phase initiated by the opposing species. Consequently, it continued its operations and remained actively engaged. The ZEZRAN Corporation officially recognized that the species was still active and dangerous, despite being dormant. Within a few weeks of the 24-hour time frame, the ZEZRAN Corporation took extensive measures to secure the remaining cities by blocking off all water sources with fences and establishing multiple checkpoints at their perimeters. One month after the war, the ZEZRAN Corporation actively conducted rescue operations in the wastelands, assigning their dedicated ZEZRAN Operatives, who were affiliated with the esteemed Armed Protection Corps. These operatives characterized the wasteland as an ESS Wildlife habitat, intertwining with a few dilapidated villages and small homes that had endured the aftermath of the conflict.

However, despite engaging in battles against ESS in different wastelands and RCD's, ZEZRAN faced accusations by various anti-militant groups who labeled them as terrorists. These groups accused ZEZRAN of being responsible for numerous massacres and killings. ZEZRAN, however, formally denied these allegations and continued their operations and engagements across the planet. Nonetheless, ZEZRAN Protection groups were forced to withdraw from several Northern Wasteland regions due to the heightened presence of ESS, which, as per findings from specialized ZEZRAN scientists, was likely caused by breeding.

According to reports and statistical data, although the genocidal phase of ESS was halted during the 24-hour war, their activity remained alarmingly high, posing the same level of threat as during the war. In response, the Corporation carried out a large-scale operation involving nest raids and migration ambushes targeting the wildlife, aiming to diminish their activity. This conflict came to be known as the First Wildlife War, a series of significant confrontations between the intelligent alien species and ZEZRAN.

Regrettably, ZEZRAN was accused of committing atrocities in several warzones. These allegations included incidents where ZEZRAN was purportedly engaging innocent bystanders in wasteland areas and subsequently executing them. Disregarding these accusations, ZEZRAN chose not to acknowledge them. The second report noted that, following the operation, ESS wildlife had retreated from various nests surrounding the RCD's.

After the war, ZEZRAN scientists embarked on escort missions to explore the ESS species. Through various encounters, they were able to discover and capture new species. In-depth investigations revealed that the ESS species did not originate from Timo-5. Despite conducting extensive research efforts, ZEZRAN was unable to officially determine the planet of origin for these mysterious creatures. In 1984, reports emerged about a missing scientist, causing significant concern for ZEZRAN. A major rescue operation was initiated to locate the scientist, but unfortunately, they could not be found. Instead, the operatives from Specialised Operations reported heightened encounters with the ESS species, surpassing the usual frequency. In fact, one operative was lost during these intensified engagements. ZEZRAN after this reported a dormant ESS state and little to no deaths from ESS. And for several years ESS was no major threat. Taking advantage of the prevailing peace, the priorities of the ZEZRAN Corporation underwent a shift from military actions towards research and reconnaissance operations. ZEZRAN's diligent research efforts yielded multiple techniques for filtering small quantities of water in bottles. However, their endeavors proved less successful when attempting to eliminate the lethal chemicals present in ocean and river waters. Notably, in 1985, a substantial ESS assault on RCD-3 (Remaining City District-3) resulted in the destruction of several ZEZRAN laboratories. Despite successfully driving the ESS out of RCD-3, there was a significant toll on both human lives and infrastructure, emphasizing the substantial level of casualties and damage incurred during this event.

The ZEZRAN Corporation, within 48 hours of the attack, carried out comprehensive armed sweeps and patrols on the outskirts of RCD-3. During these operations, it was discovered that a significant mega-nest was present beneath the city. Despite a major raid resulting in substantial damage to the nest, it proved impossible to completely obliterate it. Consequently, ZEZRAN had to establish an exclusion zone around the vicinity of the nests. Regrettably, allegations arose that ZEZRAN personnel resorted to using lethal ammunition against innocent bystanders who attempted to pass through the exclusion zone, instead of opting for non-lethal means of control. The aforementioned event sparked significant controversy among multiple RCDs, leading to extensive riots in RCD-41 and RCD-64 that lasted for approximately six days. The Joint Protection force successfully quelled a majority of the rioting within four days, with the final two days witnessing the apprehension of several high-profile rioters, some of whom required the use of lethal force.

After the "Quantcommon riots," ZEZRAN Corporation initiated a second significant raid on the large nest, resulting in a successful breakthrough. The overwhelming force led to the complete destruction of the nest, causing the ESS to withdraw from multiple RCDs due to limited resources and lack of nests to sustain themselves. However, despite dealing a blow to the major nest, the ZEZRAN Corporation began experiencing the consequences of their violations. A prominent terrorist group, known as the Timo Succession Army (TSA), emerged and became active in various RCDs, resorting to bombings and engaging in shootings against ZEZRAN. The TSA not only failed to acknowledge ZEZRAN as the official leadership or ally of T-5 but also branded them as traitors, according to ZEZRAN's account. In an official statement, the TSA unveiled their extensive armed campaign targeting ZEZRAN and its loyalists, vehemently advocating for the conversion of T-5 into a demilitarized planet. The TSA boldly branded them as oppressors rather than heroes.

Notably, the TSA encountered numerous confrontations with Joint Protection Officers within the confines of RCD's alleyways. The JP's commendable efforts predominantly resulted in successful outcomes, significantly undermining the reputation of the TSA and inflicting a significant blow to their pride. In the northern region of T-5 in RCD-19, a significant bombing campaign occurred, leading to extensive collateral damage and substantial losses. Notably, the TSA promptly conducted targeted shootings, eliminating 1-2 ZEZRAN personnel before swiftly leaving the area. Nonetheless, the JP demonstrated adaptability, strategically organizing ambushes on multiple occasions to apprehend the escaping assailants. The TSA made efforts to adapt to the sewer system, utilizing it as a strategic underground pathway to avoid detection by ZEZRAN and remain inconspicuous. However, Septic Protection managed to surround and capture several groups of TSA operatives on multiple occasions, thus foiling their plans. Nevertheless, the Septic Protection faced their own challenges when the TSA deployed underwater IEDs, planting them in the depths of sewage water and detonating them as the SP personnel passed through. The Septic Protection successfully intercepted the TSA's recon spots multiple times, thwarting their plans before they could be put into action. Consequently, the TSA decided to cease their pursuit of armed campaigns in the sewers due to concerns that repeated failures would ultimately lead to a complete collapse of their entire armed campaign.
