ARGENT

ARGENT is the name of a criminal organization within the world of Champions Online MMO.

It is short for "Advanced Research Group ENTerprises".

Officially, ARGENT is a major corporate provider of energy and technology for the world. The fuel in your car comes from ARGENT stations brought from ARGENT refineries transported from ARGENT ships.

To say that ARGENT has a stranglehold on American business is like saying that the sun is just "a little hot".

So when that huge corporation with it's foot on the nation's neck decides that the rules don't apply to them anymore, you can't just treat them like you would, say, VIPER. The people you want to hold accountable have lawyers that get paid good money to keep them free from accountability. They have public relations agents that spin even the worst of things into blessings. They have access to lawmakers and regulators that will do everything to protect them.

In short, you have a criminal operation that is not only too big to fail, but also too big for justice.

ARGENT has a corporate office in Millennium City and were even one of the companies that helped with the rebuilding the ruins of Detroit.
