Restoration Inc

When the superhuman community throws down in a neighbourhood the damages can be astronomical. However Restoration Inc are here to clean up the mess and rebuild the property to the way it was. Considering the amount of superhuman battles there are and with virtually no competition this is a definite money maker. Restoration is an engineering and construction company that specializes in the cleanup, repair, and restoration of property damaged through the destructive activities of metahuman, paranormal or extraterrestrial beings.

They use state of the art technology so that they can finish repairs and reconstructions in record time. In order to pay for their services individuals and private companies go through their Meta Human Insurance or Paranormal Activity Assurance. However if one isn’t covered they can always apply for funds from the Federal Disaster Area Stipend from their local city to pay for Restoration's assistance.

Restoration Inc is a classic example of a superhuman finding ways to use his powers both for personal profit and to provide a valuable service for the community without putting on a costume and fighting crime. Samson Orot was born a mutant. During his adolescence he manifested the power to transmute inorganic matter. He briefly considered becoming a superhero, but the more he thought about it the more painfully obvious it was that his powers really weren’t of much use against major supervillains. So he decided to find a way he could use his powers to help people that (a) didn’t involve fighting, and (b) would benefit him personally. It didn’t take long for him to realize that construction work was the perfect answer. He started working construction jobs while he was still in high school so he could learn the trade, and after graduating switched to doing it full-time. After a few years of that, when he figured he knew enough to run his own firm, he quit and formed Restoration Inc. It was an immediate hit. His powers allowed the company to complete jobs in a fraction of the time that an ordinary firm took, with fewer mistakes or complications (and the ones that did occur he could correct easily). He soon had more work than he knew what to do with and had to go on a serious hiring campaign. Some of the company’s most valued employees, came aboard during this initial expansion phase. Orot has also been able to recruit some brilliant technicians who have been able to reverse engineer various alien technology they have found in the aftermath of invasions.

Restoration continues to expand, becoming one of the most successful construction firms in the US and one of the most specialized. Rather than take on ordinary jobs, Restoration advertises itself as the fastest builders in America. With Orot’s powers to speed things along, Restoration could erect a building in a fraction of the time an ordinary firm could, or make repairs to a damaged building almost overnight. In a country with so much superhuman activity, being able to clean up after and repair the effects of super battles was the ticket to big money, and by the time he was 25 Orot was a millionaire many times over. Today Restoration Inc is one of the most highly-regarded construction firms in the world, known as much for its cleanup services after super battles as for full construction projects. When a business needs a new building built quickly, or needs rapid repairs so it can go on functioning with minimal interruption, Restoration is usually the firm that gets the call. Despite its prominence in some circles, Trans-City Construction is a pretty basic corporation on paper. Samson Orot is the sole owner; he doesn’t even have any business partners, though he maintains a profit-sharing program for his employees. He spends a lot of his time in the home office taking care of administrative and managerial details but in the final analysis the company’s success is due to his transmutation powers, so he has to go out into the field frequently to help with building projects. He prefers to do this in the morning hours, leaving the afternoon for ordinary construction workers to get their jobs done, but it really depends on the nature of a project and the demands of a customer. Mostly the staff works on preparing bids for future work and coordinating work crews’ assignments for current projects. Depending on its current workload, Restoration may have half a dozen or more large “work crews” assigned to specific jobs. Each work crew consists of construction workers employed directly by Restoration, plus specialized subcontractors hired for that job based on submitted bids.

Restoration owns a small fleet of its own construction vehicles — trucks, bulldozers, and the like — which have all been heavily modified with alien tech. One example is a “hover-forklift” that could easily carry heavy loads to any part of a building using gravitic technology, and a similar “hover-dolly” that a single worker could use to carry a very heavy load.
