I actually think the Founder himself placed all of the gems, based on how an exit portal appeared when the zombie mom hugged with her kid and the mystery was solved when we acquired the 1st gem. The portals are his creation.

Maybe he's just looking for the strongest individual for reasons unrevealed, possibly then to control them via the neutral implant, and William is mistaken thinking he's trying to get the gems for himself. I mean, William never even met the guy based on how he was bitching about him never showing his face anywhere.
Didn't anyone react to the fact that the Founder held the 9th Gem? Wasn't it supposed to be undiscovered?
The one Gem that mc found was in the Red Herring server, hidden behind a puzzle, was handed to him by an NPC.
NPCs are controlled by Ulysses/Founder.
I think the founder at one point had all 10 gems, but don't know how to use them. So he's seeding them into Eternum to have the players engaged and hunting/fighting for them.
Sounds like something Thanatos would conjure up rather than the Founder, searching for someone strong (tho in his case it's likely to test his mettle and all).

Also, the portals are his creation and the NPCs are "reprogrammed" by him, but I don't buy that he planted the gems. Would make the entire VRMMO deception feel unnecessary when he could, say, create a Battle Royale style VR game instead if the objective is to find who is strong enough to utilize the gems.

Plus while the Founder could control the NPC's memories and personalities, the Ekabar incident in 0.7 showed that NPCs can break away from their programming and do things on their own free will. So it's possible that the gem provided by the NPC in the Red Herring server was something that they had in their possession* and they gave it to Orion because they wanted to, not because they're preprogrammed to do so.

*or they could manifest it, which tracks with an old theory of mine that the reason why the dead are trapped in Eternum is because they alone could manifest and give the gems to someone worthy enough, and the person responsible for closing Acheron (the Founder or possibly one of the Immortals of old) knows this, which is what led to Eternum's current state

I think the woman who helped them with the clue in The Red Herring belongs to the Syndicate. The Syndicate most likely consist of human souls that haven't been chipped and mind controlled by Ulysses/Founder yet and I think they are tied to Idriel (in Limbo) somehow. Like they are her acolytes she uses/influences to steer events in a certain direction to break the cycle.

But that little girl who handed Orion the box with the gem was definitely an NPC controlled by the Founder.

She said so.

The one who gave us the letter we weren't supposed to open that got delivered during our heist planning meeting was also syndicate IIRC. On my path I didn't get a good enough look at her to see if it's the same little girl tho'.

That's what I was saying in my post tho: the Founder may have control of the NPC's behavior but 0.7 showed that it is not absolute and Orion being rewarded the gem could be one of those moments where an NPC went against its programming because they found him worthy of it.

Orion would have recognized her if she was the same girl.

How do you explain the 9th gem being in the hands of the Founder?

Why does it need explained? If having all 10 make you CEO and he's the CEO now maybe he had them all to begin with. Or not.
CEOs are appointed by a board of directors. This whole 10 gems to become CEO is just the lure to get people to hunt/fight for the gems IMHO. The real reason why the Founder created the neural implant, exit portals, inventory system is far more sinister I bet. At least that's the info we got from William Bardot if he can be trusted. I bet he has his own hidden agenda as well.

-The easiest explanation is that he found it prior to the creation of the VRMMO, realized the enormity of the task required in finding all of them, and thus made him come up with the whole scheme of using unpaid normies to do the dirty work for him. The only reason he's putting it as a reward is because the xenomorph crisis is threatening to unravel the truth about Eternum to the world and thus put a halt to the gem hunt (and the Founder could ill afford that from happening, not when only one gem remains unfound)

-An intern or agent from Ulysses found it recently, but rather than announce the find to the world Ulysses decides to use it to motivate players to clean house and keep the VRMMO deception going. The Founder is okay with this since ultimately the gems will end up in his hands once all are found

I put off playing this game because of the whole virtual reality thing since that kind of things in other games here are usually pretty dumb. In other games when all the characters play an RPG or something it's usually my least favorite part. But I started Eternum two days ago and this has to be one of the most well made games here. The writing is good, this is first game from this site where I have actually laughed at a joke. And this game does more with the renpy engine than any other I've played. The sex scenes are also excellent even though I've seen only a few so far. The BJ scene with nova was great.
