Gadgetron

Gadgetron Corporation is a large gadget and weapons supplier in the Oltanis series. It is based on Planet Kalebo III with its main headquarters there, and a few other locations as well! Including one on Planet Oltanis where Tanor works from if he doesn't commute to Kalebo. It is one of the largest corporations in the Solana Galaxy. It offers its services to all inhabited planets throughout the galaxy and some uninhabited planets. Tanor and the Oltanis Zeta have made uses of their technology, though mainly it is supplied and developed by Tanor's personal labs. Many weapons and gadgets have been made by him as well. After working for MegaCorp, Tanor would extend his services to Gadgetron once MegaCorp folded and was acquired by Gadgetron to better serve the Bogon Galaxy.

Gadgetron is based primarily in the Solana Galaxy, but also had a small presence in the Bogon Galaxy, originally based on planet Barlow, before Megacorp drove them out of business. In the Polaris Galaxy, Gadgetron does not operate, driven out of business by Grummel Net Industries. In Oltanis Sigma, Tanor becomes the CEO of Gadgetron with help by the previous CEO Lumos in most of the financial and non-technical parts. Tanor oversees production of the services and is responsible for the expansion. He still operates as a fighter for hire and will do missions as usual.

History
Gadgetron has been well-established in the Solana Galaxy for some time prior to the series start. They had facilities located on all inhabited worlds in the galaxy (as well as the uninhabited planet Trachea Five). Though they had a small presence in the Bogon Galaxy, based on Barlow, Megacorp drove them from business years prior to Tanor getting involved with MegaCorp and his second adventure that he came across Ratchet.

Gadgetron developed a series of missile launchers known as the RYNO series. The first developed was the most powerful missile launcher in the galaxy when it was released, but was deemed unfit for civilian use. Weapons that Gadgetron had developed like this ended up in black market hands, and even ended up on Oltanis, where the previous Grandmaster of the Mazu Seiuns used to take war action on the planet and to drive out the Oltanian Foxes that were left after the genocide decades before. It was Miles Faux that had to stop the corrupted use of these weapons, though that doesn't stop anyone else from getting ahold of them.

Business
Gadgetron is a large manufacturer of weapons and gadgets with a large presence throughout the Solana Galaxy and eventually other galaxies such as the Bogon, when Tanor is made CEO of MegaCorp and his connections with Gadgetron helped get them back in business, as well as a future merger just before the start of Oltanis Sigma, but even during the Oltanis Zeta and Oltanis Epsilon era before it, it is considered the quadrant's leading retailer of state-of-the-art gadget technology. They have vendors on all inhabited planets in the galaxy, in addition to the uninhabited planets, and a private facility on Earth that Tanor owns. Gadgetron appears to have a monopoly on weapons and gadgets sold in Solana, and admitted that critics have described them as a power-hungry monopoly bent on galactic domination.

Tanor
Tanor had been using Gadgetron products since the early Oltanis Zeta years. He actually had a prototype weapon submitted to them that later became a real weapon based on something he made himself. This was one of his first creations when he started building and manufacturing tech. After that, he started making more designs and later became a key designer and builder of weapons and gadgets. Some of his designs would end up in the hands of Ratchet. He also designed weapons for MegaCorp, that were then rebranded as Gadgetron once they noticed him and hired him as well. In fact, the CEO, Lumos liked his style enough to actually buy them and pay him for his wares.

Once Tanor starts getting bigger facilities developed, he starts getting whole sectors to manage, and no longer just odd weapons or crazy gadgets, but he started getting spaceships built for them as well as robots.

Due to Tanor working for Dr. Robotnik just before traveling to his home planet at the age of 8, and on his return to Mobius, this helped him get an edge on his growth in technological and building skills, perhaps surpassing the Doctor.

Years later after working as a commando for Gadgetron and MegaCorp, he became a CEO of MegaCorp first, replacing Abercrombie Fizzwidget, who after being used by Qwark was never viewed quite the same, because people would confuse him for Qwark who disguised as him. Due to how destructive the protopets were, Tanor had to slowly regain the trust of everyone who bought any kind of MegaCorp product, and also started getting them into Gadgetron products on the sly.

Due to his suave and powerful tactics, he was seen as a proponent to becoming Gadgetron's CEO, and this was made true and Lumos offered Tanor the job, but would handle most of the finances and political scheme they had going. Tanor not being keen in that kind of thing, let him stay as part of the leading team.
