Man minus the machine is a slave; Man plus the machine is a freeman.

― Henry Ford

Founded in 2038 by Elizabeth Carter, the sixth-generation descendant of the legendary writer and occultist Randolph Carter, DMAIC is a mega corporation that rose to fame following their invention of the first generation cyberdoll.

After the start of the Second Age of Exploration, DMAIC quickly shifted its focus to developing cyberdoll models and industrial drones adaptable to cosmic environments to meet the labor needs of extraterrestrial colonies. Today, DMAIC is the largest supplier of industrial machinery in Neo England and is responsible for maintenance of the colony's infrastructure, including the Archimedes Orbital Station.

Yet her longevity still spawned many a conspiracy theory, with some calling it a marketing ploy while more radical ones claim that the Carter family has a long history of cutting deals with aliens...
