The cosm of Marketplace is governed by a triad of corporations, each of whom will stop at nothing to gain a financial advantage, for profitability is the only law on this world. One of these corporations has invaded Earth, ostensibly in an attempt to increase the market for its goods. In Japan itself, the Yakuza have been taken over by the corporations, and are used to keep the dispossesed citizens who now live on the streets from becoming a 'financial liability'. Corporate interactions often involve teams of heavily armed and armoured Samurai, Ninja warriors, and backstabbing executives. On the streets live the new clans of the homeless, or burakumin . These people are made up of those who are unneeded by the corporations, along with those who failed to show a consistent profit. Amongst these are the militant shiki, gangs of wreckers who try to hit back at the corporations; and the growing priesthood of Palan - who forswear all material trappings, and dedicate themselves to helping the broken hearted people of the streets. Martial arts, espionage, strict honour codes and corporate business takeovers make Nippon Tech an interesting place to adventure in.
