MTT Corp

Lore & Background

The corporation was established to bring media and fame to the monster population. Mettaton serves as the owner and CEO, performing in various segments ranging from news reports to dramatic game shows. His popularity is immense, often overshadowing other political or military concerns within the kingdom. Behind the scenes, Dr. Alphys provides technical support.

She constructed Mettaton's robotic body as part of her research and as a companion for the ghost that would become Mettaton, who then possessed the body. She frequently operates him remotely during broadcasts. This arrangement allows her to support his career while managing her own anxieties about public perception and human relations. Despite its focus on entertainment, MTT Corp reflects the broader desire for connection among monsters.

By broadcasting their lives, they attempt to reach out to the world above, even if only through a screen. The brand represents hope that fame might one day lead to freedom or understanding between species.

Reader's Guide

MTT Corp operates as the premier entertainment conglomerate within the Monster Kingdom, headquartered in the bustling Capital City near Hotland. Led by the charismatic robot star Mettaton, the organization focuses on producing television broadcasts and selling branded merchandise to both monsters and humans. Their primary goal is maintaining high viewer ratings while spreading joy through variety shows and news segments. Key personnel include Dr. Alphys, who secretly constructed Mettaton's robotic body and often writes scripts from behind the scenes.

While other monsters occasionally appear as guests or staff, Mettaton remains the sole public face of the brand. The corporation maintains a generally positive stance regarding the barrier between species; they actively welcome human interaction through media consumption and product sales. However, their influence is largely cultural rather than political. They do not directly lobby for barrier removal but normalize coexistence by making monsters famous to humans via leaks or broadcasts. This soft power approach contrasts with the Royal Guard's military focus.
