United Blimp & Freight

The largest blimp and dirigible manufacturer in the world created by Cornelius Gould Stuyvesant I who was the richest man in the world before his untimely death at the hands of Christopher Harkness.

In the book Hard Magic, on death’s door, Cornelius Gould Stuyvesant passed all of his belongings to Francis Cornelius Stuyvesant II, his grandson and the only one that the UBF founder thought of as worthy in the many sons and grandsons he had.

At the start of the book Spellbound, it is explained that the Board of Trustees and Shareholders believed that Francis would be an incredibly easy person to mold into a figure head so they would keep all of the money and power to themselves. Unfortunately for them... And quite fortunately for the Grimnoir, Francis Cornelius Stuyvesant II was not so easily manipulated. Through a process of brutal power plays, a clever use of his public face and other such things, Francis was able to procure ownership of UBF and most of his money.

On top of that, during the second book, UBF played a pivotal role in ending the OCI's reign of propaganda and scapegoating of the Grimnoir. When the Chief Financial Officer, Ray Chandler, found and bought the services of Buckminster Fuller, the cog who created their Demaxion Suppressors (a device capable of creating a space that the Power cannot activate within), Francis learned how to create a black hole that would cancel and break the Suppressors. Incidentally, it also swallowed Mason Island whole.

During Warbound, United Blimp and Freight was seized, investigated and Union attacked because Francis refused to give up his remaining Demaxion Suppressors or tell President Roosevelt where Buckminster Fuller was, stating that if the President wanted a war, he would have one.
