Secunda City

Secunda City is a vast metropolis within the habitat zone of Station Omacron. It is said that if a city and a shopping mall were to mate, then this would be the result. Most of the city is on “ground” level like most on any given planet, but the residential areas are on levels 100 feet above that. In the middle of what seems to be a plaza is a pillar that serves as an elevator from the Station Control above them, and then downwards to the other levels. This is somewhat on the border that separates the Square from the rest of the buildings.

History

Secunda City and the station it inhabits, Station Omacron was built to provide the Mining Guild and anyone else who came to visit a home. A sanctuary from starships and a place to sleep when none of the planets were either known about (Frostopia) or made yet (Prazoa) or even found their way into the system (Planet Pele). Though some of the ships had technology that allowed a faux bedroom to sleep in or quarters. They decided that having an actual bed, not in a starship, would be a better idea. 

Habitat Environment

The Station Systems have special life support systems that aid in cleaning the air that the organics breathe out as well as the water needs of Organics, is also present. It also has access to all waste disposal systems which were carefully cleaned by the Station’s Custodians. The station and the homes within use Space Heaters, and air condition for a comfortable environment.

Sky Feature

The habitat’s ceiling uses technology that makes it seem as though there is no ceiling. Instead, it appears as if there is a gigantic hole in the station’s top, allowing for the viewing of the Yolus Nebula above. At night, the sensors that do this shut down so that the inhabitants can get some sleep. Because of the levels and distances, some of the places appear to view the ceiling/sky closer to themselves. Only those in the Square would view the ceiling/skies at their true distance.

Central Secunda City

Within the Square and a meter away from the elevator is a large ornate fountain that periodically shoots water like a geyser towards the ceiling/skies above. The fountain’s water is a two-foot deep plunge, and in the middle area is a transparent diamond-coated fixture, which has water falling over it. The fixture covered an invisible force field containing plasma, which fills the fixture and emits multiple hues of various colors which affect the water and the reflection.

Central Station

When newcomers or returning individuals arrive in Station Omacron, and go up to enter the City, Central station is part of where they end up. It’s a massive station where the light rail cars stop to pick up passengers to go anywhere in the City. The floors are white marble stone, though it's covered by a substance that kept its appearance, but prevents scrapes, scuffs, and other damage caused by robots, and people walking. White Marble stone pillars seem to hold the station up and the station is primarily underground like a subway station on the planets.

Government District

The City hall is a large structure, that’s shaped of a Palace, rather than an actual typical City Hall.  The building houses the Servers for the entire city, as well as an archive room where history and citizenship data are stored. It’s also where the decisions for the city and the planet happens.

Here is a list of government departments

  • Department of Advanced Research and Development
  • Department of Engineering
  • Department of Communications
  • Department of Public Services
  • Internal Security Division
  • SCPD (Secunda City Police)

Principle Sation

Principal Station is the stop for government employees, including those who do oversight of the law enforcement officers. It is also where those working in Mining Guild’s Corporate building stop to go to work. There were also a few city blocks that contained restaurants and other shopping-related buildings that can be traveled to by going to the Principle Station. It follows the same design as the other Stations in terms of Marble stone design. The station is primarily underground like a subway station on the planets.

Commercial Center

Across from the border are small restaurants and bakeries to provide food, laundry buildings for cleaning, and then schools and hospitals. Closer to the merchant district are a few Stores, Food Markets as well as Black Wing Enterprises stores, though carefully placed so that it doesn’t affect the competition. In addition, there were kiosks here for shopping requirements.

There are also a few cultural learning centers and Dojos, for those wishing to train in Martial arts. Places can also be found to soak in the hot tubs. Other recreational areas are also present that might appeal to various species.

Nurseries and Hatcheries for reptilian eggs can also be found in the Commercial Habitat to take care of the Station’s young. There is also a portal entrance to The Blitz Cabana club.

Corp Plaza Station

The Corp Plaza Station is the main hub transit station for all corporate buildings in the city, as well as where other businesses are located. The station is primarily underground like a subway station on the planets.

Mining Guild Headquarters

The Secunda City branch of the Mining Guild Headquarters is much bigger than the New Dusk Conclave’s Capital City branch. This was because of the limited amount of space, and how new the company had been when it was being built. Much like the Main Headquarters, the layout of the Secunda City branch is similar. Receptionists are on the bottom floors. The next few floors up are the classrooms for the new miners, future overseers, and other roles. Typically, the CEO’s office will be at the top, but here, however, is the Branch Head’s office. Quantum communication is set up so that the leadership can communicate.

First Avenue Station

This station is located within First Avenu, east of Corp Plaza Station about a block away from it and the Mining Guild’s Branch Headquarters. Unlike the Corp Plaza, Med way, Principal, and Central Station First Avenue Station is smaller, primarily only a platform with an open concept above group type station.

Second Avenue Station

The Second Avenue Station like the street follows the First, and it is due east of where the First street ends. Like the other station, it is smaller, primarily only a platform with an open concept above group type station.

Medical Center

The Medical Center hosts a variety of medical techniques and technology. Each bed is separated into rooms where the doors can be opened and closed or remain in either state for privacy requirements. The beds themselves are made with the patient’s physiology in mind.

The medical staff, both organic and synthetic, are trained to help the citizens to the best of their abilities. There’s even an area for synthetics where they can be repaired. All areas are brightly lit, clean and sterile, ready to serve. Whether the patient is organic or synthetic, it wouldn’t matter here, the medical staff will treat their patients with respect, and help them recover so that the patient whoever they may be can get back to their lives and their work.

Med Way Station

The Med Way Station is the station where those needing medical attention can go via the system, and they will immediately get there, though of course for extreme cases, they’d have the The 505 Emergency Medical Vehicle taking them there as they take care of them. The Secunda City Medical Center is the City’s main medical facility in the system, though there were multiple smaller hospitals all over the City. The station is primarily underground like a subway station on the planets.

Cultural Areas

As a way to honor the Species that were a part of the Mining Guild. The Architects of the City had decided to allow special Cultural Areas for these individuals.

These areas are

Senti Burial Forges

The Senti Burial Forges are holy sites, due to their connection between the realms of the living and the dead, and their task of producing the steel that makes up most of their society. As a sacred area for the Senti the Senti Representative worked with the architects and builders to choose an area that was appropriate, and as a religious site, this area is given respect by the rest of the Dracotownian population.

As a location, it is between a (NDC Naga species) grove and the lift that would immediately take a person to the lower industrial areas of the Station at a respectful distance from each other. As such those going to the industrial sections will likely see the forges and the groves before they go down.

Third Avenue (Crimson District) Station

The Third Avenue Station is in the middle of the Third street, and like the Second, it follows where it ended.

Residential

The lower level has hotels and apartments close to the Commercial area and the Secunda City Medical Center, which is the Station’s primary medical center. Additional Residential areas are set on levels that are 1000 meters high above the other buildings in the Commercial District.

Level 2 Apartments

The second level is exclusive apartments. There is 63 meters distance between the railing that prevents falling off the level and the beginning of the apartments, with a pathway between them, and a rail system that allows for quick travel if the inhabitants don’t have a bike of any kind. Each apartment is a large building with balconies of its own that allows for viewing of the ‘ground level’. 

There is technology to block excess noise from the lower and upper levels so that the inhabitants can sleep. This technology does not prevent Elysians or others with wings from flying from the lower or upper floors.

Due to space, the apartments here are more for single-family households or couples who don’t have kids. Secunda City has prefabricated housing in terms of ArcoBuildings For their apartments.

Upper Level Stations

The upper levels within the city part is primarily residential, starting with Level 2 being Apartments, Level one, through to the top most level has which has its own station. Level one Station is built like a subway, where passengers go downstairs and there's the car arrives.

Level 3 Suburbia

Level 3 is a level for suburban life. As with Level 2, there are 63 meters distance between the railing that prevents falling off the level and the beginning of the homes here. Level 3 contains the neighborhoods geared towards larger, bigger families and Overseers who are in charge of mining operations. There are pathways, bike trails, and a rail system here for quick travel to areas where an individual’s home might be. There’s a person in charge of home assignment here much like the apartment level.  Nicer amenities, including pools, can be found in these larger homes.

As with the other residential levels, noise reduction technology is present to make things comfortable for the level’s occupants.

Suburbia Stations

The Station for the Third level is open concept like most Avenue Stations; this was to allow those people living in the suburbs to get to their homes easily enough. Though considering the size, there is still travelling time.

Level 4 Cyborg Apartments

The layout of this level is similar to that of Level 2. The ArcoBuildings in Level 4 are geared towards Cyborgs, but with a more tech twist to accommodate the need for repairs and maintenance that they can do alone.

Mid Stations

The Station for the Third level is a subway concept like most Avenue Stations; like the second level. This is this was to allow those Cyborgs living on the level, to get to their homes easily enough. Though considering the size, there is still travelling time.

Level 5 Synthetic Apartments

The homes in Level 5 are a bit different because these are designated for the AI, Androids, and Gynoids robots with no organic parts to them. While their minds may be as sentient as organic, their bodies aren’t, and their needs may not include bathrooms or food. The living accommodations are typically small, studio apartment-sized rooms with recharge pods and a living room area. While other necessities are met on a case-by-case basis, the apartments are considerably more spartan compared to those used by the fully organic crew. There is a communal shower area for those that got dirty from their work.

Yolus Stations

Yolus Stations are primarily for the technicians going up as the structures here, are massive complexes containing Synthetics these are individuals who prefer not to use an organic body. Those Synthetics leaving their homes to go to work where ever that would be can also use the station.
