The Area
An enormous steel and concrete structure built into The Wall, dozens of stories tall, the headquarters of Korthar Deep Earth is the tallest building in the city. The buildings top-most floor reaches above The Wall, providing the only view of the outside in the entire city - the rest of the building is window-less. It sits in the richest District of the city, the east, on the side closest to The Wall. The building itself is imposing, casting a shadow over all buildings bellow it. A jagged, geometric pattern coats the buildings facade, a security cameras cling to every part of its exterior. On top of the concrete exterior, the building is covered in holograms advertising KDE’s various products and services - these ads continue high above the clouds.
Inside, the building is a bright white, on the bottom half of the floors. Lights on the top half of the floors will only turn on for humans. Plastered on much of the walls are TV screen displaying current news. Sterile floors and walls are accented by red carpet that leads from its main door into the lobby. Access inside the building is guarded by heavily armed Simulants, purpose built to be able to take down an army.
By the time the player arrives, the building is devoid of humans. Everyone had long been evacuated when news of the terrorists coming broke. Simulants on the other hand, are numerous. Janitors, caterers and transport Simulants are present all over the building, but by far the most common is The company’s security Simulants. Seven feet tall bipeds wielding riffles stand guard at every door in the building. Constructed of bullet proof metal with exposed electronics and servos, their internal LEDs providing a dim red glow in the darkness. When leaving an elevator, before the lights turn on, you’ll see rows and rows of dim red lights echo down a seemingly endless void.
The People
Executives and business people are scattered throughout the many floors - the space so vast its possible to go an entire day without seeing a living thing. Simulants on the other hand, are numerous. Janitors, caterers and transport Simulants are present all over the building, but by far the most common is KDE’s security Simulants. Seven feet tall bipeds wielding riffles stand guard at every door in the building. Constructed of bullet proof metal with exposed electronics and servos, their internal LEDs providing a dim red glow in the darkness.
