VP of Client Compliance
GOOD FORTUNEField Assessment
A Good Fortune field agent in a fitted red-and-gold corporate uniform â crisp jacket bearing the seven-petaled flower, polished boots unsuited for the Dregs. No armor. No mask. The VP's face is visible â calm, professional, almost bored. A gas-dispensing device on the right forearm: a compact pressurized canister connected to a nozzle array, glowing faintly amber with aerosolized compliance compounds. The contrast between the VP's corporate cleanliness and the Dregs' filth is deliberate.
Developed in partnership with Helix Biotech. The compounds cause neurological disorientation, suppress fight-or-flight response, and leave targets suggestible. On the VP's death, the device's failsafe ruptures the canister â a "terminal compliance event." The Collective has published evidence linking VPs to Good Fortune's bio-compliance patent portfolio. Good Fortune responded with a defamation suit.
Known Activity
The most disturbing thing about VPs isn't the gas â it's the boredom. They've internalized Good Fortune's corporate culture so completely that gassing a corridor of debtors and processing field payments while they're disoriented registers as routine. Some genuinely believe they're providing a service â the compliance agents make the payment process "less stressful for the client." The fact that "less stressful" means "neurologically incapable of resistance" is, in Good Fortune's institutional logic, a feature.
