Nogros Family

The Nogros were among the first colonists to Pluto around 2199 OTT. Norbert Nogros a chemical engineer co founded Hyper Tox Inc.

A company dedicated to the research, storage and disposal of the most toxic substances known to man.

Background
After humanity ascended many new materials, compounts and substances were discovered. Some of which were toxic (harmful and lethal to life). This was not lost to human weapon designers. The idea of Chemical warfare was an old one on Earth.

Admiral Stahl wrote in one of his earliest books. "Earth is the new kid on the block. There are hundreds bigger and stronger ones. Therefore we must be smarter, more resilient and use everything we can to our advantage."

TSI (Terran Space Intelligence) initiated  Operation Nightshade. A research initiative to research collect, create and warehouse the most lethal toxins. Cataloged and stored by type, dispersion method and for what life form.

The most toxic substances were first stored on Mercury and then on Pluto nder the cover of a toxic waste storage and recycling company.

 CLASSIFIED : This program is ongoing and the big secret of Pluto.

Norbert Nogros was the first director and lead scientist of that project. He used his knowlege and connections to privatize part of the research, able to openly attract and retain specialists and researchers.

The company grew (with generous government funding) and continues to operate to this day. (Now working on contracts with the Union Space Force)

Family
The Nogros family had little interest in the actual company. Managed and run by carefully selected individuals (NAVINT selected) and just act as a front and spend the considerable fortune.

The fmaily moved to the pluto moon Nix, and made it their own. The family is large and owns and operates other investments and businesses.

Old money families like this, who have considerable resources over centuries are often called "Neo Nobles "

The Nogros have an old feud with the Hemmerich family on Hydra moon.
