Whether it's improving the existing Denarius architecture or coming out with new products that rely on the Denarius for power, everything revolves around them. ==== Design ==== As mentioned above, all new products are built to support the Denarius token system. Two teams work on the system, rotating half the team out every six months to maintain a fresh approach while the other team works on the products that use the system. Anything from appliances to generators to mobile devices is fair game. ==== Production ==== Hekate gets around the usual difficulties in the mass production of magical goods by avoiding the production of magical good altogether. Instead, primarily what they focus on is magical receptors and capacitors, which are far easier to build and maintain than a whole magical item. Both parts are formed on an assembly line, and then divided into whatever product line they need to be installed in. ==== Distribution ==== As their primary monetary gain is through the Denarius system, they have a hand in many governments supplying it as their monetary system. Naturally, they easily market outwards from there, applying to be in every storefront out there. They do maintain a storefront in economies that aren't controlled by magical coins. Their storefronts maintain a regal appearance, covered in deep purples and golds with velvet fabrics. ==== Marketing ==== Their primary customer is governments, so they rely on a direct appeal approach for that. For the societies that don't utilize their system wholly, they go for a more common approach of commercials and displays. ===== Holdings ===== === Distribution === Hekate maintains distribution in Aleph, Equilibrium, and Aleph Gamma. === Production Facilities === Hekate has a main production house in Reliquary, but maintains a handful of distribution centers and localized mints for governments that use the Denarius.
