Pangent Technologies is a company experimenting with Project 555, the Cube. It is the central organisation of the Human Souls ARG and employs all known characters except Eric. The company was named by Dean Schreyer, and "Pangent" comes from a corruption of the word "penguin".
History
The beginning of Project 555
Pangent was cofounded by Dean Schreyer (also known as "Lancelot"), who originally retrieved the Cube from Lot 555 during a military operation in the 80s. He realised that its properties could be perfect for data storage and returned to Pangent in London thirty years later. He hoped that his mind could be stored in the Cube as he was dying of cancer. Lottie was a scientist who was put to work on Project 555, as it became known. Dean's son, Alex, was originally Lottie's assistant on the project, but he continued to rise through the company and eventually became her boss. Even nastier and more manipulative than his father, Alex continually frustrates Lottie, who is already worn out from working on the Cube project.
The Spice Girls
Lottie forms a group that becomes known as the "Spice Girls" with her friends and colleagues Leslie and Sharon in an attempt to form an opposition against Alex.
