Manticore Research Group (slogan: "We Bring You the Horizon") is one of the eight subsidiaries of the Orochi Group. They are an international arms manufacturer with a focus on aerospace engineering and military technologies. [1] They build weapons and defense equipment, satellites, rockets, passenger jets, engines, and turbines, among others. [2] It is also said they are working on harnessing Anima for weapons and energy sources.[3]
However, there seems to be a higher than usual number of injuries and fatalities associated with the Manticore Research Group.[4] Although in virtually all cases, no negligence on the part of Manticore is ever found.
Lidiya makes mention of "Manticore oculttech"[5], and Dragan Dzoavich also seems to back up the statement that their occult defenses are top-notch [6]
Namesake
The Mardyakhor (lit. "man-eater") was a fabulous beast of Persian myth with the body of a lion, a tail that resembled a scorpion's tail or else fired poison quills, and the head of a man sporting triple rows of sharp teeth with which "The Manticore" (as in Europe it was known) ate its victims entire, famously leaving no bones behind. Due to mentions by Aristotle and Pliny, the beast was imagined in later antiquity to be real and even featured in some medieval European bestiaries.
Projects
- Fusang - Manticore has recently expanded into China, and one of it's major projects there is "regenerating the old city of Fusang"[7]
