Magnetic Research

The purple Merm man returned as always "I must thank all of you greatly for the support for our magnetic weaponry. We've developed far beyond our first prototypes and are now ready to start making magnetic weaponry for deployment in police and army forces. Now we still have other research open, such as magnetic fields to protect our soldiers, as well as creating magnetic armour. I assure you all that the protective abilities of magnets are just as potentially powerful as our weaponry. Thank you." the merm was getting more confidence with the year.

Crystal Research

The bumbling scientist woman came up once more. She came up to her microphone, adjusting it her size before speaking. "H-hello. I uh... Made the thing. With the guns.... I hope its f-fine. If y-you could uh... Give more money... That would be great." She hurridly tried to get of stage again, but just before leaving, she stood still. For a moment she stood there, before red-headedly coming back to the microphone. "Y--yeah uh.. w-we have... Cat-tatalysts and... Armour too..." She bolted it the moment she got it out.

Electronics Research

The werewolf was around this time, presenting himself proudly on the podium with his white coat and brown fur. He adjusted his small, round glasses before speaking. "Welcome, welcome. I am proud to present my findings. Our AI research has been making bounds of progress. Now I must ask you all to continue funding this project. We have much more ground to cover, before we can make AI match viro intelligence quite well on the emotional level. Also, I would urge you all to continue spending on our other research projects. Radiation and hardlight show promising results, and our modifications might prove useful too for those on the field. Give them the extra edge they need to deal with the threats that shadow us all daily. We still have our laser and plasma projects eagerly awaiting your hard earned money. I will assure you all. Putting your stakes on us will ensure a brighter and saver future for all of us."

Artificial Magi Reseach

Bloody mary once more showed her face. She hoped over to the mic, bumping the werewolf away almost. "Heeeelo everyone. We've got some great results, keep spending. Souls are coming along nicely, which is really cool. Psionics are weird too. Hell, everything we make is weird. Now im off to join the afterparty and uh... Enjoy myself" She winked at the crowd and walked right off again. Wobbling a bit as she did, and her speech somewhat suspiciously slurred.

Theromite Research

The podium remained empty for some time. People were almost starting to think fate wouldn't show up, until she did. She put up a barstool, clumsily got on it, and started a balancing act on it as she tried to support herself on the microphone stand. She coughed, then finally spoke. "Give us your money." She got off again and walked off stage.

Robotics Research

The bird-cat girl walked back up, bringing the mic back up to a decent size "Hah. Wow. We sure did show you all how amazing it was to put money on our project. I mean, we saved all of Poland with our robots. Now I'm sure you all don't need any more convincing to understand just how much potential our work in robotics, mechs, exosuits and power armor is!" She got off, allowing the next and final researcher to take the stage.

Medical Research

A giant stride into the stage. Not onto, but into, because one of his foots made part of the podium collapse. He stumbled but regained himself. From his awkward position, he reached out to grab the microphone and start talking. "Ah... Sorry about that. Medicine has progressed a long way. Now that our prosthetic are ready to hit the market, we'd like for everyone to consider our other projects as well. Implants and stimulants will be just as invaluable on the battle field in these restless times. Thank you." The giant was stuck, and so they closed the curtains before he got off.
