FizzCo

"We strive to 'craft the best damn beverages on Earth.'"

Founded in 2007 by an entrepreneurial genius named Rupert F. Kane, FizzCo's initial goal was to craft the "Best damn beverages on Earth." This later was shifted to include the acquisition of robotics labs, pharmaceutical companies and weapons warehouses, turning a small Beverage company into a multi billion dollar organization.

The company saw many years of financial rise as they released more and more products, eventually leading them to having a pre-launch party for their newest breakthrough product; OverCharge Delirium XT. The product, which was still in the heavy testing stages, caused those who drank it to transform into violent, soda craving monster zombies.

Beginnings
When Rupert F. Kane had a dream of crafting the greatest energy drink, he knew his destiny was laid out before him. He spent years trying, until eventually, he had it. After he brought his product before various beverage companies, all of whom rejected him, he struck out on his own, reaching massive success within a few short years.

Thanks to his new found success, Rupert was not only able to buy out his competitors, but he was able to buy into multiple other ventures, such as Robotics, Pharmaceuticals, and Weaponry. With all this at his disposal, he was able to quadruple his profits in a very short span of time, making him one of the richest people on Earth. Through it all, he never forgot his main goal, and would soon achieve it.

In 2027, FizzCo announced a new product that would debut later that year, OverCharge Delirium XT. After fifteen years of not releasing any beverages outside of new flavors on existing product lines, OverCharge Delirium XT was met by the public as a general shock, costing the company their first stock drop since they founded. To combat this drop in stock prices, OverCharge would be released at a special "Early Preview" event in Sunset City, where FizzCo HQ was located.

The End of Days
The Preview was going well...until people started drinking the as of yet released energy drink. Thanks to a rushed production cycle in order to have enough for everyone, the product was tainted in production, causing an allergic reaction with all who drank the substance, turning them into vicious monster hungering for more OverCharge Delirium XT.

After a few days of conflict within Sunset City, FizzCo was able to push back the advancing OD monsters with advanced Robotics and high tech weaponry, as well as the help of various factions of people fighting in the streets with makeshift weaponry.
