• CABAL & BUSINESS •

Geargoyle is the co-owner of The Foundry, a hackerspace co-op located in Cleveland, Ohio. For the past few years, it's been home to a wide variety of eccentric inventors - from transhuman cyberpunks to swordsmiths, glassblowers to roboticists. In addition to hardened, conditioned power and full fiber internet connections, The Foundry offers Biosafety Level 3 labs and EM Shielded workspaces in limited quantities. Shared equipment includes large-scale CNC and 3-D printing, laser cutting, forges and ovens, and so much more! The co-op's members and crew call themselves Tesla's Irregulars.

In addition to their work within the workshop, Tesla's Irregulars sell their creations and services to other Secret Worlders and in the wider world as well. They travel worldwide to improve their various crafts, advancing research and making new contacts. One final amenity is the Faraday Cage, the on-site Industrial club with a bird's eye view of The Foundry's main workshop floor.

Following the crisis in Tokyo and the unusual bee infestations, Geargoyle and some other members of the shop have taken on new roles, new talents. The business is shifting, and Tesla's Irregulars are ready to bring their unique brand of troubleshooting to bear against the horrors and wonders of the Secret World.
