Bases And Their Stories

1: Gargantuan Leviathan Research Site

A: About the base

This base was build with a specific research task in mind: Study the Gargantuan. This base was build recently, being build about 32 years ago. Not much is known about this research site, as it was attacked by ghost leviathans and the people there were actually smart enough to NOT drop their PDA.

B: How it died

This base was attacked by ghost leviathans every day, creating more leaks for everyone to fix. Everyone working on scanning the thing dropped their scanners and swam inside as soon as they saw the ghost leviathan.

C: What YOU can do

However, the base can be better, the lack of power, the low structural integrity, the 'attackings', they can all be fixed by YOU! Yep, YOU! You can rebuild this base, make it better and do what you want with it! All the people who used to live in it died, so what's stopping it from being yours?

2: Void Aquarium Base

A: About the base

Just another alienmanmade storage cache to contain a Cuddlefish egg... Sadly does nothing else... Though it might contain some stasis rifle fragments!

B: The 'Shield'

As you might see, there will be a weird thing surrounding the base, not the ghost leviathans, but the I, U and X corridors around the base. This is used as a shield against the ghosts, because the ghosts can attack through the walls.

3: Void Creation Site/Grassy Plateaus Base

A: About the base

This base was made for the purpose of only one thing, which was creating a black void, or black hole, while also making it not damaging. Well... They succeeded but also failed because you see... Their entire base got destroyed because of it, and all the crew were eaten by sand sharks.

B: How they made the black hole

Making a black hole is hard, but they did it. The black hole was made with a round ball of energy, heat and iron. We're talking about a mini-burned-out-star. Then the star got crushed, and it magically became a black hole
