Creating an Origin Character

Creating an Origin character is very simple; they can be nearly any race, and come from nearly any background. Origin typically attracts people who are outgoing, and adventurous, but don't want to join the military. Typical Origin employees are also often thinkers and dreamers, who want to create, design, or build things. Alternatively, Ex-military members often come to Origin to join Origin Security, which is seen as a semi-rigid military or police-like force which avoids much of the dangers of a normal military, and does not fall into the grey legality of most Paramilitary companies. Origin security members can be found providing a variety of tasks, from a simple security guard, to the police force on Origin-controlled stations, even as escort personnel and expeditionary forces to provide security to researchers and explorers.

Inventory and Uniforms

Origin employees are expected to wear the Origin Industries Uniform, unless part of Origin Security, which they would use the OriSec Uniform.

For standard inventory, Origin employees, if part of a starship crew or working on a space station or Origin Mart, get issued A standard set of items while those working as Origin Security receive A more combat-focused inventory.

Pay

All Origin employees, upon signing their contract, receive a bonus of 3,000 KS, in order to pay for any potential travel or moving expenses, as well as to ensure they are able to make ends meet until their regular pay starts coming in. All employees are paid on a weekly scale, and their pay rate chenges depending on their ranking within the company, as well as whether they are working at a station or Origin mart, or if they are Starship crew or Origin Security. The Pay Scale is fairly simple 2) and mimics military ranks for Origin Security.

Expectations

Origin Employees are expected to show up to work on time, perform their duties in a timely manner, and be loyal to the company. Also, professionalism is seen as quite important, although being relaxed and friendly are also important aspects of an Origin Employee's behavior. Origin tries to show the Kikyo sector a good face, and Origin Employees are expected to uphold the good name of Origin Industries, and are asked to be helpful and altruistic if possible, which Origin may reward or at least compensate for.

Higher performing individuals tend to get better treatment, but those that can at least remain satisfactory are still given competitive pay and benefits, with a low stress environment essential, Origin makes sure that none of its employees are to live in poverty, and can provide aid to those that do end up falling on hard times. Open communication is a necessary part of this, and Origin employees are expected to speak to their superiors when they need something that cannot be provided by their peers.
