Are those MATA energy corp mercs ?

What do you mean by `energy?'

But yes, these are fully-sentient MATA mercenaries patrolling the desert.

A subsidiary of MATA whose mission is to provide energy for their servers.

They found success in energy R&D applications to WMDs and became a militant super power. Or so I've heard in the less visited corners of the public MATA-net.

I'm not sure whether techno mage & her friends really exist in canon, or are just spooky tales told by the MATA seniors to scare interns.

Remember children just because it is a story of good and evil, does not mean good always triumphs. Practice your POSIX and always be ready.
