It has since become the largest economic entity in the cosmos.
The Interastral Peace Corporation, abbreviated as the IPC, is an intergalactic mega corporation responsible for the economy of the entire cosmos.[1]
Description[]
"With all due respect, is there anyone in the universe more enlightened than our chair, Qlipoth? Qlipoth acquiesces in all our business decisions, never asking or questioning why. How great a privilege! How great a trust!"
To outsiders, the IPC is an enormous consortium advocating free trade. From a business perspective, the IPC is a business that issues money and monopolizes resources. From a startup perspective, the IPC is a selfless support group dedicated to the Aeon of Preservation.
When many astral citizens talk about the IPC, they talk about its ubiquitous merchandise and logo. It's as if "The IPC exists whenever there is a transaction." In fact, almost all business transactions in the cosmos are based on the credit system created by the IPC. If one were to compare interastral trade to a sports competition, the IPC would be the top athletes as well as the sports, the venue, and the rules themselves.
Its absolute dominance over wealth and relentless expansion has given the IPC the image of a conspiratorial business dictatorship. But the IPC pays little attention to lowly ambitions such as dictatorship, because its spirit hasn't wavered since its creation:
Give everything to the Amber Lord, Qlipoth.
Today, the Interastral Peace Corporation is divided into seven major departments. Perhaps the word "department" can no longer encompass the astounding scale of this pan-galactic enterprise. In actuality, every IPC department would often control dozens or even hundreds of civilized worlds of various scales and have billions of workers employed in a hereditary manner, let alone the countless masses that are affected by the impact of its commercial activities.
These seven major departments are:
The Marketing Development Department is engrossed in reaching more star systems to preach the calling of Qlipoth. At it same time, it is also responsible for pulling newly emerging worlds into the universal commercial sphere.
It is said that its chairman, Oswaldo Schneider, is a former Nameless who still holds strongly to the will of Trailblaze after joining the IPC. People believe he will soon become a member of the Board of Trustees. All he's missing is some experience and an empty spot.
When the Marketing Development Department finishes establishing relationships with a new world, the subsequent commercial dealings will be handed over to the Business Consolidation Department. This department is responsible for managing the IPC's Hyper-distant Delivery system. They stock take specialty goods, set prices, and continuously maintain the IPC's subsidiary facilities and goods inventory.
The Business Consolidation Department is the IPC's biggest department. Its staff numbers amount to 45% of the headquarter's total personnel.
The Strategic Investment Department has the second-best foresight in the IPC. Their investment will never be limited to short-term returns.
The Strategic Investment Department has an elite team of Non-Performing Asset Liquidation Specialists — the "Ten Stonehearts" — led by the mysterious director Diamond. These individuals traverse the universe, actively liquidating the bad debts caused by the Cancer of All Worlds.
The Building Material Logistics Department is the oldest in the IPC. Its former name was "The Amber Lord's Support Team" and was restructured after Louis rose to prominence.
The current director of the department is the rotund fellow Taravan Keane — One of the rare verified Emanators of Preservation in the IPC, and one of the seven members of the Board of Trustees. He shoulders the holy duty of shipping building materials to Qlipoth, and his grip on power only solidifies over time.
The Technology Department conducts thorough collaborations with the Intelligentsia Guild and turns the Guild's scientific results into commercial projects. Preferring the management practice by peer experts, the IPC acknowledges Director Yabuli's scientific aptitude and commercial instincts. The associations between this young lady and the Council of Mundanites in the Intelligentsia Guild are often also inspires waves of speculation.
The Talent Motivation Department is responsible for recruiting, training, and transporting talented employees for the IPC. This department is also the medium through which many intergalactic projects communicate and collaborate with their respective stakeholders.
Moreover, the two directors of the Talent Motivation Department — Mtooyin Raj Zazzad and Yan Shiluo — collectively control an information network that covers the entire cosmos. Their emissaries shuttle across the cosmos, befriending the major powers, and forming alliances and relationships with talents who are not yet willing to join the IPC — These "external aides" will demonstrate significant value in situations where the IPC is unable or unwilling to show its face.
The passage of time saw the rise of fall of many industries, with their influence and positions in the IPC's trade system also ebbing and flowing. When one industry's trade falls below a certain percentage threshold in pan-galactic commerce, it will be removed from the duties of the Business Consolidation Department and handed over to director Arita of the Traditional Project Department.
With its mediocre performance, the Traditional Project Department is hardly appreciated in the IPC. However, there is also the view that the true elites are concentrated in this department, where they silently conduct businesses that have withstood the test of time.
Profile[]
Once, a group of Aeonic faithful formed a logistical unit, moving materials such as stones, wood, gold, supernium alloys for infrastructure across worlds.
Eons passed in an instant and this logistical unit yet remains. In fact, they even grew to become the transgalatic business conglomerate Interastral Peace Corporation.
"From the lens of an outsider, the IPC had long departed from its initial mission. With all the changes it's undergone, it now exist as a predatory colossus in the world of business. Yet, the faith of its board of directors holds firm to the belief that every trickle of accumulated wealth will be devoted to Qlipoth in the Aeon's time of need to fulfill their wishes. As for the Preservation, Qlipoth, they care naught for the flea-like starships circling around their being, let alone the endless flow of supplies moving between worlds."[2]

Trivia[]
- The IPC regularly broadcasts news across the universe called "The Interastral Peace Broadcast" and sends free information through "Telepathy Beacons".
- The IPC has self proclaimed to be created under dedicating everything to the Amber Lord, but this has yet to tie into the story.
- The Amber Era Calendar commonly used in the galaxy, was created and promoted by the IPC. The Amber Era started at the estimated birth of Qlipoth as the Aeon of Preservation, and initiates a new Era every time Qlipoth swings their hammer during construction.
- Stellarons have been known to exist for over 700 years, and the IPC have stated that the Stellaron crisis has been going on for 11 Amber Eras.
- The IPC has claimed to have experimented on over 113 galaxies to contain Stellarons, proclaiming to be successful but this has yet to tie in with the story.
- The IPC has their own computer operating system called "Eidor" which supposedly costs more than March 7th's own computer.
- Their logos bears a strong resemblance to Qlipoth.
