'''Sangvis Ferri Manufacturing''' (铁血工业制造公司) was a weapon manufacturer based in Eastern Europe, created in 2031.<ref name=Timeline>[[The Art of Girls' Frontline Vol.1]], Timeline</ref> They were a major [[Tactical Doll]] manufacturer and researcher under the lead of AI scientist [[Lycoris]] before the 2061 [[Butterfly Incident]], when Sangvis Ferri's headquarters were destroyed and their main AI {{enemy name|Elisa|boss}} took control of their T-Dolls and turned against mankind. From then on, Sangvis Ferri was no more the name of a renown military manufacturer, but of a threat to humanity the PMC [[Griffin and Kryuger]] was tasked with destroying. As such, they were the first antagonist in [[Girls' Frontline]].


The '''Sangvis Ferri Industrial Manufacturing Company''' was a limited (Ltd.) company that formerly supplied both state and private military contractors with T-Dolls, weaponry, and other military hardware. Established in 2031, soon after the Beilan disaster struck the world, Sangvis Ferri (often referred to as SF) went on to fulfill military contracts to critical acclaim during the Third World War. However, after the [[Butterfly Incident]], SF mysteriously lost its head of research and development, [[Lycoris]], along with the entirety of its human employees due to uncertain circumstances; The immediate result of the Butterfly Incident led to the rise of a rogue Sangvis AI, [[Elisa]], taking over the former company's assets, as well as the contracting of Griffin and Kryuger to contain the new threat.
Unlike other T-Dolls, SF dolls are subordinates to the mainframe Elisa and do not require direct human orders to act.<ref name=Glossary>[[The Art of Girls' Frontline Vol.1]], Glossary</ref> Furthermore, they follow a command structure where the mainframe directly control defense-type and command-type "ringleader" dolls, who can then further delegate tasks to lower-ranking ringleaders. Regular dolls and other combat units are subordinates to ringleaders.<ref>[[The Art of Girls' Frontline Vol.1]], p. 160</ref>


The first antagonist faction of the game, Sangvis Ferri features in the first 10 chapters of the story, as well as in the events of Arctic Warfare, Deep Dive, and Singularity. Although Griffin and Kryuger have been contracted by the Russian Army to deal with the relatively minor threat, their partner companies IOP and 16LAB are also highly interested in unveiling the mystery behind the events of Butterfly.

===Origins===
{{clr}}
Established as a military hardware company,<ref name=Timeline /> Sangvis Ferri became one of the early partners of [[IOP]] through their Ukrainian branch. At the time, SF was rapidly growing and developed an interest in the resilient ALR-52P dolls rather than the advanced technologies of the CSD-03H and invested large amounts of money in IOP while also offering to provide AI researchers. Despite his surprise of seeing SF's interest in older models, the president of IOP [[Havier Witkin]] gladly accepted the partnership. Relations between SF and IOP fell through as national armies lost interest in IOP products early in [[World War Three]] and preferred the modified ALR-52P [[Jaeger]] produced by SF as subcontractors for IOP, using the technical documents they had provided. Wiktin was particularly enraged when IOP lost contracts to SF, but nevertheless pushed for improving his versatile Tactical Dolls designs. IOP would rebound later in the war when hiring former [[90WISH]] members and their ACD series were the most used during World War Three, with 11 730 units produced, including 2300 by Sangvis Ferri.<ref name=Files1G>[[The Art of Girls' Frontline Vol.1]], Confidential Files, The First Generation of Tactical Dolls</ref> The war was overall profitable to SF due to the satisfaction of their clients.<ref name=Timeline />
== Products ==
Sangvis Ferri was best known for their series of combat-model dolls and war machines, however, they were also involved in furniture production, construction contracts, post-Beilan mining and research into precursor technology. In addition, they were sub-contracted by IOP to manufacture bulk military orders that IOP couldn't fill out fast enough on their own. Notably, their [[Jaeger]] series of dolls were highly effective in World War Three, and were praised by military leaders over IOP's initial designs.<ref name="Girl's Frontline Confidential Files">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IQJym0C6vVIx9UBBdrZKbcLZqiZu7scZALvHvZCSQyk/</ref>


== History ==
===Lycoris===
=== Establishment ===
The rivalry between SF and IOP would continue after the war when AI scientist [[Lycoris]] approached SF during business conferences to leave IOP, who refused to fund his research on autonomous AI. SF gladly accepted and hired [[Griffin and Kryuger]] PMC to escort Lycoris to their underground research labs and protect him from any retaliation by Wiktin. G&K accepted in exchange of complete access to Lycoris' future research.
Sangvis Ferri Industrial Manufacturing Company was established in Anno Domini 2031, based in Eastern Europe with facilities in Ukraine, Russia, and London. With a focus on rugged durability and reliability even in the most hostile of environments, SF products quickly grew in popularity in post-Beilan Europe.


=== Interactions with I.O.P. ===
In late 2054, Lycoris installed [[Elisa]] as the mainframe for computing human orders and relaying it to T-Dolls. As SF established a new Dolls manufacturing plant in a dangerous but resources-rich area,<ref name=Timeline /> Lycoris exploited their robust manufacturing capabilities to eschew the software compatibility with a wide range of firearms supported by Persica, instead developing miniaturized particle weapons and mount them on dolls, then testing the results and iterating. Individual SF dolls had better performance as a result and their capabilities was more unified,<ref name=Files2G /> though SF dolls were expensive to produce and Elisa suffered from lapses of consciousness Lycoris still needed to resolve.<ref name=Timeline />
Sangvis Ferri's rise soon caught the attention of the newly-formed Important Operation Prototype Manufacturing Company (IOP) and the two companies soon entered into a partnership, with IOP providing SF with new designs and research while the latter put their renowned manufacturing capabilities to good use. Relations between the two companies were high until the start of World War Three, where Sangvis Ferri's independently produced designs outperformed and outsold IOP's more complex and less reliable dolls. Economic competition between the two companies grew fierce, though IOP eventually took back the lead after hiring two prodigious researchers, [[Persica]] and [[Lycoris]], to develop enhanced designs for war.


After World War Three, Sangvis Ferri's growth began to slow down, while IOP's lead only grew thanks to refocusing their attention on creating civilian-model dolls. This recession would last all the way until Lycoris became disillusioned with IOP's priorities and began to secretly negotiate with Sangvis Ferri for a new job in greener pastures. When Lyco finally quit IOP, he hired the newly-founded Griffin and Kryuger private military company to escort him to Sangvis Ferri, where he would become the head of research and development.<ref name="Girl's Frontline Confidential Files" /><ref name= "Chapter 9 Story">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ee07e9qahjH6_3EkslCcENcQg-9eXHQW-pguH-Nd60Y/edit</ref>
In 2061, [[90WISH]] and the [[KCCO]] launched operation Butterfly, an assault on Sangvis Ferri to kill Lycoris. By confronting Elisa to Lycoris' death, they hoped to accelerate the maturation process of [[OGAS]], the basic system used to build Elisa, which would evolved further thanks to Elisa's self-learning abilities. Elisa's reaction was to become indiscriminately hostile toward humanity. The reasons and culprits behind the “[[Butterfly Incident]]” stayed a mystery for two years until 90WISH and the KCCO made another move that would betray their intentions to the [[Federal Security Service]].<ref name=Sing2A2>[[Singularity]] 2A2</ref> All of SF's research was lost in Area S09 and IOP basically controlled the Tactical Doll market.<ref name=Files2G>[[The Art of Girls' Frontline Vol.1]], Confidential Files, The Second Generation of Tactical Dolls</ref>


Despite now working for competing businesses, Persica and Lycoris remained close and corresponded often. One of these correspondences would lead to data from a human girl, [[Lunixya]], being shared with Lyco, who would later use it to begin his new project.

{{Main|Butterfly Incident}}
As part of his work for Sangvis Ferri, Lycoris immediately began by upgrading Sangvis weaponry and software using Precursor technology, developing particle weaponry and a top-down structure. Under his direction, SF began to perform research on Precursor ruins, and would later repurpose and modify the abandoned Soviet [[OGAS]] Precursor-based network for communications. At the same time, work on the "perfect" AI started, with the first prototype, Elisa, created based on data gained from Lunixya and designed to be integrated with OGAS.<ref name="Chapter 9 Story" />


At some point, Lyco's work caught the attention of the New Soviet Union. Before Elisa was complete, a raid conducted by an unknown entity led to the "accidental" death of Lycoris, who activated his creation with his dying breath. Shocked into action by the death of her creator, Elisa ordered the immediate termination of all non-Sangvis and non-doll entities within the facility, leading to the Butterfly Incident.

Now under the command of Elisa, Sangvis Ferri's automated and autonomous units went to work, purging threats and defending Sangvis-held territory. Sangvis Ferri's command structure is a top-down, tree-shaped structure based on the OGAS network and protocol, with no need for dummy-linking units. Specialized units designated as "ringleaders" take direct command of all lower-ranked SF units within range, with command-type ringleaders such as [[Intruder]] and [[Gager]] giving orders to combat-type leaders, which then assign tasks to field units, and so on. SF units often prioritize efficiency and effectiveness, however, special directives (such as rescuing and retrieval of high-value targets, or certain orders given directly by Elisa) can be assigned that take precedence over immediate combat.

"The truth is much more complicated than you think."

This article is written from a Lore perspective. It contains spoilers and different reference materials might be contradictory.

"This is classified information!"

This article contains unmarked spoilers. You have been warned.

Sangvis Ferri Manufacturing (铁血工业制造公司) was a weapon manufacturer based in Eastern Europe, created in 2031.[1] They were a major Tactical Doll manufacturer and researcher under the lead of AI scientist Lycoris before the 2061 Butterfly Incident, when Sangvis Ferri's headquarters were destroyed and their main AI Elisa took control of their T-Dolls and turned against mankind. From then on, Sangvis Ferri was no more the name of a renown military manufacturer, but of a threat to humanity the PMC Griffin and Kryuger was tasked with destroying. As such, they were the first antagonist in Girls' Frontline.

Unlike other T-Dolls, SF dolls are subordinates to the mainframe Elisa and do not require direct human orders to act.[2] Furthermore, they follow a command structure where the mainframe directly control defense-type and command-type "ringleader" dolls, who can then further delegate tasks to lower-ranking ringleaders. Regular dolls and other combat units are subordinates to ringleaders.[3]

History

Origins

Established as a military hardware company,[1] Sangvis Ferri became one of the early partners of IOP through their Ukrainian branch. At the time, SF was rapidly growing and developed an interest in the resilient ALR-52P dolls rather than the advanced technologies of the CSD-03H and invested large amounts of money in IOP while also offering to provide AI researchers. Despite his surprise of seeing SF's interest in older models, the president of IOP Havier Witkin gladly accepted the partnership. Relations between SF and IOP fell through as national armies lost interest in IOP products early in World War Three and preferred the modified ALR-52P Jaeger produced by SF as subcontractors for IOP, using the technical documents they had provided. Wiktin was particularly enraged when IOP lost contracts to SF, but nevertheless pushed for improving his versatile Tactical Dolls designs. IOP would rebound later in the war when hiring former 90WISH members and their ACD series were the most used during World War Three, with 11 730 units produced, including 2300 by Sangvis Ferri.[4] The war was overall profitable to SF due to the satisfaction of their clients.[1]

Lycoris

The rivalry between SF and IOP would continue after the war when AI scientist Lycoris approached SF during business conferences to leave IOP, who refused to fund his research on autonomous AI. SF gladly accepted and hired Griffin and Kryuger PMC to escort Lycoris to their underground research labs and protect him from any retaliation by Wiktin. G&K accepted in exchange of complete access to Lycoris' future research.

In late 2054, Lycoris installed Elisa as the mainframe for computing human orders and relaying it to T-Dolls. As SF established a new Dolls manufacturing plant in a dangerous but resources-rich area,[1] Lycoris exploited their robust manufacturing capabilities to eschew the software compatibility with a wide range of firearms supported by Persica, instead developing miniaturized particle weapons and mount them on dolls, then testing the results and iterating. Individual SF dolls had better performance as a result and their capabilities was more unified,[5] though SF dolls were expensive to produce and Elisa suffered from lapses of consciousness Lycoris still needed to resolve.[1]

In 2061, 90WISH and the KCCO launched operation Butterfly, an assault on Sangvis Ferri to kill Lycoris. By confronting Elisa to Lycoris' death, they hoped to accelerate the maturation process of OGAS, the basic system used to build Elisa, which would evolved further thanks to Elisa's self-learning abilities. Elisa's reaction was to become indiscriminately hostile toward humanity. The reasons and culprits behind the “Butterfly Incident” stayed a mystery for two years until 90WISH and the KCCO made another move that would betray their intentions to the Federal Security Service.[6] All of SF's research was lost in Area S09 and IOP basically controlled the Tactical Doll market.[5]

Against Griffin

"Let's take out the trash."

This article may require cleanup, for the following reason(s): Add information about Plan Parapluie.

In 2062, Griffin and Kryuger PMC received the contract to stop Sangvis Ferri dolls from spreading outside of Area S09.[1] As time went, Elisa continued to progress and created new units to bolster her army, like Dreamer and the Jupiter Cannon,[7] while 16LAB also acted to study Sangvis Ferri technology to counter them with projects like SG M1887M1887M1887.[8]

After a year without results, the KCCO and G&K partnered to launch an operation on SF's headquarters and capture Elisa, under the cover of a joint exercise for a PR event.[9] The true objective of the KCCO was to force Elisa to deploy her Parapluie virus, then counter-hack her to neutralize and capture OGAS,[6] but OGAS proved to be a formidable opponent in electronic warfare[10] and Elisa was brought to safety by the converted T-Doll M16A1 (Boss).[11]

Units

Trivia

  • Sangvis Ferri's name (铁血) is derived from Latin: "sangui-" meaning "blood" (血), and "ferrum" meaning "iron" (铁). The name can be interpreted as "Iron Blood", which is fitting given SF's role as a wartime heavy industries manufacturer.
