Charisma Associates

Charisma Associates is one of the central foundations of Horizon corp, responsible for thier trademark spins and media manipulation. Charisma Associates made thier first big break by completely reinventing the Tír image after the Matrix 2.0 Crash and the resulting coup d'état that ousted former High Prince Lugh Surehand in 2065. After the wildly successful campaign, Charisma Associates' headquarters were moved to Cara'Sir (then still Portland).

> I was there when the deal was made. When High Prince Larry Zincan assumed control of the govenment in shambles, the first thing he did was call up his old idol, Cline. When they met in person, Cline put his arm around the ork's shoulder and said, "Larry, leave it to me. You just concentrate on staying alive for the next thirty days. I promise, by this time next month, they'll all be so fucking happy they live here they'll be lining the streets with rose petals." We all know how that managed to turn out. — Doc Hollywood
>> Word has it that Hestaby has her talons in making sure the rebranding campaign go off as smoothly as it did. — Frosty

Charisma Associates is known for its viral and unorthodox marketing campaigns, which some people find unacceptable, but their results are top-notch, they even manage to generate sales spikes for competing products at the same time. In addition to the marketing and campaigning work, Charisma Associates also deals in the market-trend analysis that outshines all the other AAA megacorps, making thier market research specialists particularly prone to involentary extraction.
