Hades and Styx

PHOENIX’s Underground Empire

Map of Hades and Styx Network

Phoenix Deep Site Facility Network
Underground facilities designed, built and maintained beneath government, military, corporate headquarters buildings and national park sites.


Purpose
Phoenix installations are designed to withstand the harshest nuclear bombardment, or extinction-level strike from asteroids or comets. Specifications for Phoenix installations meet or exceed those of the COG (Continuity of Government) shelters, which are designated for the President and other high-ranking officials. As such, Phoenix facilities provide a natural a back-up for existing COG installations.
The Phoenix Deep Sites are designed to provide maximum survivability and mobility in event of extreme disasters. Therefore, they connect to a wide variety of surface entrances:
Construction Elements

  • Installations – Large structures or open areas containing one or more structures
  • Tunnels – Code Name: STYX (the mythic underworld river)
  • Connectors – High-security areas which connect to surface facilities or other subterranean areas: government, military, civilian (automated security systems, active denial systems)
  • Super-high-speed, Mag-lev railway systems – Code Names: STYX/CHARON Tens-of-trillions of dollars have been poured into the Phoenix Network since its inception (following WWII).

Connector Types

  • U.S. military bases
  • Intelligence community black sites
  • U.S. Navy underwater facilities
  • Defense corporations
  • Civilian agencies – Think Tanks, Private Equity & Financial Services corporations (RAND Corporation, The Carlyle Group, The Trilateral Commission)
  • Major Research Universities
  • National parks

Missions

  • Research and development of highest sensitivity special access projects
  • Compartmented training on special access projects
  • Growing and stockpiling food
  • Stockpiling potable water
  • Vaults for priceless artworks/government documents (while their replicas are on display)
  • Housing for special dignitaries / Phoenix personnel / COG emergency backup

Autonomous Command Centers (secondary or backup for major commands)
Hubs to maintain operations even if the human leadership is incapacitated. Not using A.I., but Phoenix’s equivalent, LS-enabled equipment or security systems, possibly grouped LS systems, like Cyber-minds. Highly automated facilities that are meant to operate during circumstances when the major command has fallen, incapacitated or there has been a long-term loss of communication.

Legacy Sites
Post WWII prototype sites created by the Army Corps of Engineers. These are remnants of Phoenix’s earliest operations, dating back to WWII and the Cold War. Some may still function, while others are abandoned but hold clues to Phoenix’s history–secrets they no longer want to acknowledge.
Features: Outdated technology, abandoned experiments, eerie atmosphere, and historical documentation that might expose Phoenix’s original mission.

  • hidden, sealed areas that have valuable or dangerous secrets
  • May find Phoenix historical documents, plans for the future
  • old prototype equipment that may be valuable
  • forgotten artifacts
