Dracksil Forg sells ideas. For the right price, he's got a solution to every possible problem. His reputation is impeccable, and whilst his ideas aren’t flawless, he has a 100% money-back guarantee.
Dracksil has started selling to a new type of customer. They are dictators, warlords; species having trouble conquering galaxies or controlling populations. However, for these clients, Dracksil's ideas keep falling apart.

Notes
- Tedds developed the idea for Forg's business after speaking with a friend who had also entered the competition. Tedds "bemoaned [his] struggle to come up with something, ending [his] own message with ‘Why can’t we just go into a shop and buy an idea?’".[1]
