'''Clovis Bray''' (abbreviated as '''C.B.''' in its logo)<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''Destiny: [[Rise of Iron]] - Grimoire:[[Grimoire:Allies|Allies]]/[[Grimoire:Allies/Iron Lords|Iron Lords]], [[Grimoire:Allies/Iron Lords#Lord Timur|Lord Timur]]''</ref> was a [[Golden Age]] exoscience corporation founded by [[Clovis Bray I]].<ref name="CB1"/> Clovis Bray I himself and his progeny, the [[House Bray]], played key roles in the corporation's research and technological advancements, including the development of [[Engram]]s, [[SIVA]], the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]] and the creation of [[Exo]]s. Having vast resources at its disposal, the corporation built many research installations across the [[Solar System]].

==Overview==
Clovis Bray was responsible for the construction of the [[Dust Palace]] on [[Mars]],<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''Destiny - [[The Buried City (mission)|The Burried City]]''</ref> funding and subsequent construction of [[Freehold]]. The [[Crucible]] map [[Blind Watch]] is located atop an old Clovis Bray facility on the outskirts of the city,<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''Destiny - Grimoire:[[Grimoire:Activities|Activities]]/[[Grimoire:Activities/Crucible Arenas|Crucible Arenas]], [[Grimoire:Activities/Crucible_Arenas#Blind_Watch|Blind Watch]]''</ref> and [[Skyline]] is situated within the Clovis Bray Health Center.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''Destiny: Rise of Iron - Grimoire:Activities/Crucible Arenas, [[Grimoire:Activities/Crucible Arenas#Skyline - Meridian Bay, Mars|Skyline - Meridian Bay, Mars]]''</ref> The corporation also helped fund a colony and create laboratories and factories in the frozen moon of [[Europa]] during the [[Golden Age]]. After the [[Collapse]], the [[Fallen]] [[House of Salvation]] started looting the ruins of Clovis Bray colony and laboratories.{{Citation needed}}

==History==

Founded by [[Clovis Bray I]] during the [[Golden Age]], the Clovis Bray corporation was responsible for a number of cutting-edge scientific and technological breakthroughs throughout the Golden Age, with some of its most notable achievements including the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]] and at least two powerful and versatile swarm nanorobotics-based technologies, "[[Owl Sector#TRANSMISSION incident|Transmission]]" and [[SIVA]].{{Citation needed}}

While Transmission was intended to enhance the strength, speed, and intelligence of prospective colonists using nanomachines, SIVA used nanomachines to break down matter and reconstitute it to rapidly construct entire cities. With the Transmission project eventually being shuttered after it caused unforeseen side effects in test subjects, Clovis Bray focused entirely on SIVA, which was subsequently completed and approved for deployment.<ref name="OSR">[http://owlsector.bungie.net/archive.html#en Bungie.net - Owl Sector Records]</ref> During SIVA's development, Dr. [[Zarin Shirazi]]'s confidence in SIVA's capabilities led her to neglect adding safety measures such as a kill switch. Following an incident where a test subject was made mute by the effects of SIVA, however, Zarin resolved to propose a failsafe for future nanotech development.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''Destiny: Rise of Iron - Grimoire:Activities/[[Grimoire:Activities/Other Activities|Other Activities]], [[Grimoire:Activities/Other Activities#Fortitude 3.1|Fortitude 3.1]]''</ref> Upon SIVA's completion, the first SIVA replication chamber, [[Site 6]], was built within the [[Cosmodrome]] in order to outfit the [[colony ship]]s.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''Destiny: Rise of Iron - Grimoire:[[Grimoire:Enemies|Enemies]]/[[Grimoire:Enemies/SIVA|SIVA]], [[Grimoire:Enemies/SIVA#Dormant SIVA: Clovis Bray 1.9|Dormant SIVA: Clovis Bray 1.9]]''</ref>

Clovis Bray also worked on a variety of secret projects during the late Golden Age, with some of the most notable being the development of Vex-based AI systems at [[Vesper Station]] around Europa<ref>'''Bungie (2024/10/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Revenant]] - [[Vesper's Host]]''</ref> and the [[Ares Spire]] facility on [[Mars]],<ref name="TMCustomPlate">'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''Destiny 2: [[Season of the Seraph]] - Item Description: [[TM Custom Suits#TM-Earp Custom Plate, Vest, & Duster|TM-Earp Custom Plate, Vest, & Duster]]''</ref> as well as "[[Project ECHO]]", a planned colony mission intended to set out for the Andromeda Galaxy,<ref>'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''Destiny 2: Season of the Seraph - Item Description: [[Terminus Horizon#Lore|Terminus Horizon]]''</ref> which also seemingly included a contingency protocol which would partition Rasputin into twelve segments and store them in "pillory" facilities, including [[Caelus Station]] around [[Uranus]], if the Warmind went rogue.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/3/10)''', ''[[Weblore]]:[[Weblore:Season of the Worthy|Season of the Worthy]] - [[Weblore:Season of the Worthy#Legacy|Legacy]]''</ref>

===Activities on Europa===

Following the visions he received from the paracausal force he knew as "[[Darkness|Clarity]]", Clovis Bray I traveled to [[Europa]] in search of immortality, and founded the [[Bray Exoscience]] research facility and [[Eventide]] colony to further the development and implementation of the Exomind program.{{Citation needed}} The researchers who worked there had little regard for ethics, and the studies conducted often led to the deaths of some or all test subjects involved.{{Citation needed}} 

Through the use of [[Glassway|a Vex gate]] constructed by a captive Vex specimen stolen from the [[Ishtar Collective]], Clovis Bray was able to collect [[radiolaria]], which when exposed to "Clarity" yielded a miraculous substance Clovis Bray I termed "[[alkahest]]" that was able to solve the issue of Dissociative Exomind Rejection that plagued the first Exos.{{Citation needed}} However, an army of [[Vex]] began spilling out of the gate, leading to many casualties and forcing [[Elisabeth Bray]] and [[Banshee-44|Clovis-43]] to close the facility and its associated colony.{{Citation needed}}

===Post-Collapse===

By the time of the [[City Age]], the work and surviving records of Clovis Bray had attained a near-mythical reputation, with some going so far as to assert that the corporation single-handedly sustained the Golden Age and was an epitome of innovation.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''Destiny: Rise of Iron - Grimoire:Places/[[Grimoire:Places/The City|The Cty]], [[Grimoire:Places/The_City#Ghost_Fragment:_The_Dark_Age_3|The Dark Age 3]]''</ref> During the [[Owl Sector]]'s investigation of the Transmission incident, however, previously suppressed Clovis Bray records were uncovered, revealing the conglomerate to be more reckless in their pursuit of new advances than previously assumed.<ref name="OSR"/>

==Arsenal==
Clovis Bray and its subsidiaries manufactured numerous firearms during the Golden Age, many of which have survived into the [[City Age]].
