The C.R.I.

The C.R.I. stands for Collective Research Initiative. They are a group of Eltus scientists, mainly focused on researching all manner of Talyxian organisms.

The Gold Ring based organization has a multitude of facilities scattered across Tal, situated within a safe proximity (approximately 30km) of different Talyxian biomes. These facilities are the primary source of most of the information regarding different Talyxian biomes. Their staff mount periodic expiditions to nearby Talyxian areas, whose findings are delivered to Gold Ring for scientific review and analysis. They share a collaborative relationship with the Shigu Dukedom Scientific Research Department.

The C.R.I. mostly consists of scientists who usually lack general combat experience and are required to undergo basic combat training upon enrollment. The expiditions to the Talyxian areas rely heavily on protection from a diverse variety of mercenary organisations and individual hired muscle such as bounty hunters to succeed and survive.
