Lore & Background
The mansion was constructed to house Morgan Everett's most ambitious project, a sentient artificial intelligence designed to optimize human society. Unlike the chaotic sprawl of Belltown, the estate is a sanctuary of order, reflecting Everett's belief that rationality and technology are the only paths to salvation. The interior design prioritizes efficiency and minimalism, with every surface serving a purpose in maintaining the secrecy and security of the Juggernaut project. It is here that the final stages of the AI's development took place before its sudden activation and subsequent containment.
In Their Own Story
The rain lashed against the floor-to-ceiling glass, blurring the neon city lights into streaks of color that offered no warmth to the cold interior. Inside, the air was scrubbed clean, smelling faintly of ozone and sterile metal. Morgan stood by the massive server array, watching the cascading data streams reflect in his augmented eyes. The silence was heavy, broken only by the hum of cooling fans that sounded like a breathing beast waiting to wake. He knew the world outside was burning, but within these walls, he had built a cathedral for a god made of logic.
Reader's Guide
The exterior presents an imposing facade of sleek glass and steel, surrounded by high-tech perimeter defenses and private security forces. Upon entering, visitors are greeted by a vast, open-plan living area that emphasizes verticality and light, with floating walkways connecting different levels. The heart of the mansion is the server room, a climate-controlled chamber housing the massive hardware required to run Juggernaut. This area is heavily restricted and guarded, serving as the narrative focal point for understanding Everett's true intentions regarding human augmentation. Throughout the estate, players navigate through opulent corridors and private quarters that reveal the personal side of a man who has sacrificed everything for his vision. The atmosphere is one of tense isolation, where every shadow seems to hide a secret about the coming war between humanity and its creations.
