	== ~~History~~ ==		{{MainArticle\|Ultor Security Guards}}
	~~=== ''Red Faction''~~ ===		Throughout Red Faction, Ultor's defense against the Red Faction uprising was primarily driven by its security guards.
	As the twenty-first century progressed, Earth ran out of usable minerals. Ultor decided to take advantage of the shortage, expanding its mining business to Mars and establishing numerous mining colonies on the planet. By the year 2070, Ultor was well-established, having become an integral component in Earth's economy. Unbeknownst to the general population of Earth, however, human rights abuses ran rampant in the mining colonies, and Ultor's miners were regularly subjected to deplorable living conditions, sub-standard medical treatment, and physical violence. Ultor also allowed miners to fall victim to an unidentified disease known as the [[Plague]]. Miners often used recreational drugs as a temporary means of psychological escape; it was possible that Ultor ~~profited off the distribution of such drugs.~~		===Mercenary Corps===
			{{MainArticle\|Mercenary Corps}}
	~~In 2074, a miner operating under the alias "[[Eos]]" formed a small and secret group of rebellious miners known as the [[Red Faction (Rebellion)\|~~Red Faction~~]]. Eos~~, ~~who had been motivated primarily by~~ Ultor's complacency with the Plague, planned to bring about the complete destruction of the Ultor Corporation. Over the course of the next four years, Eos and her followers stole weapons from the guards, hiding them in covert, improvised weapon caches strewn throughout the ~~mining camp. The~~ Red Faction ~~also took advantage of the Plague, distributing pamphlets that blamed Ultor.~~		In the latter half of Red Faction, the Mercenary Corps, led by [[Masako\|Col. Masako]], were called in by Ultor to quell the uprising.

	It was ~~in 2075 that [[Parker]] joined the Ultor Corporation, becoming employed as a miner and witnessing Ultor's brutality firsthand. Later that year, he was contacted~~ by ~~[[Hendrix]], a rogue~~ security employee working for Ultor. Hendrix provided Parker with critical assistance, allowing him to link up with the Red Faction. Parker helped the Red Faction discover the truth behind the Plague: the Plague was the result of [[nanotechnology]] experiments conducted by [[Capek]], an Ultor scientist. Parker's assistance would later allow the [[Earth Defense Force]] (EDF) to land. The EDF dismantled the Ultor Corporation and arrested or shot many of their employees. ~~It is assumed that the company would've stood trial on Earth for the abuses on Mars.~~

	=== ~~''Red Faction II''~~ ===
	In 2080, the EDF reconstructed the Ultor Corporation, and the company became more humane. Ultor's new objective was the production of biological enhancements and improved weaponry for EDF soldiers, with research into the former being facilitated by Capek's supplies. The resulting research would be stolen, sold, and resold repeatedly, eventually ending up in the ~~hands of Victor [[Sopot]], who used it to create a squad~~ of ~~supersoldiers. Quickly fearing his own creations, Sopot tried and failed to kill the enhanced beings. The Ultor Corporation's fate after that is unknown.~~

	~~=== ''Red Faction: Guerrilla'' ===~~
	~~It is unknown whether Ultor plays a part in ''[[Red Faction: Guerrilla]]'' or not. The Ultor symbol has been spotted on propaganda in~~ Red Faction~~: Guerrilla~~, ~~on signs and buildings within~~ the ~~tutorial mission~~, ~~and the [[Nano Rifle]] features an Ultor symbol; however this is most likely because the [[Nano Forge]] powering the gun was created~~ by [[~~Capek]], an enemy in [[Red Faction (Game)~~\|~~Red Faction]] and an employee of Ultor~~.

	~~Throughout the story, Ultor is mentioned in various [[radio tags~~]] ~~and in some missions~~, ~~such as the one~~ in ~~which the Nano Forge is obtained. Throughout [[the Badlands]], you can find ruins of the old Capek nanotech labs from~~ the ~~first [[Red Faction (Game)\|Red Faction]]~~.
