Mutant Chronicles: Mishima Sourcebook

Death Before Dishonor

Mishima is the most secretive yet spiritual of all the corporations battling for power in a future solar system riven by war and labouring under the threat of the Dark Legion. Its power base on Mercury contains intrigue, power struggles and hidden agendas, as well as the truth behind the mystical power of Ki, which fuels its warriors' almost superhuman battlefield prowess.

From the underground cities of Mercury to the sprawling plains of Mars, the Mishima corporation is united by a code of duty and honour. In the boardroom and on the battlefield, the proud samurai of the management caste lead the way. Beneath them toil countless work units of commoners, among whom hide secret societies dedicated to the martial arts, organised crime and, sometimes, the Dark Apostles…
