Burrowgatory

Burrowgatory is the primary setting where the Succubuns ARPG takes place, and where all playable characters reside and interact.
== Location ==
Burrowgatory is located underground, separate from both the mortal realm and from hell. It originated as a network of rabbit warrens that ran too deephttps://succubuns.com/info/Burrowgatory, coming into close contact with hell and the magical energies coming from hell and causing the mutation of rabbits into succubunshttps://succubuns.com/info/Succubuns. Due to its origin as a tunnel network, there may remain connections to the surface, and it is noted that the closer one goes to the surface in Burrowgatory, the more diverse the biomes. However, as of yet, there is no indication that any succubuns have or will make contact with the surface world.
== Environment ==
Despite being completely underground, Burrowgatory mimics the surface of Earth in several ways.
=== Light ===
Luminous crystals, bioluminescent plants and fungi, and hellfire from the nearby hell provide enough light for the inhabitants to see by, however it is notable that there is no singular large light source known. These light sources wax and wane in tandem in roughly 12-hour cycles, providing an approximation of a day-night cycle. It is possible that Burrowgatory overall remains rather dim due to the size of the caverns and the relative low level light emission sources, and that rather than being bright, succubuns are simply adapted to low light conditions; however Cherubuns may disprove this idea, as they do not seem to have issues seeing when they arrive in Burrowgatory.
=== Weather and Climate ===
The main city caverns, as well as potentially other auxiliary caverns, have tall ceilings high enough to be obscured and to allow the formation of clouds. Rain is able to fall in Burrowgatory, however it is unclear if storms may be able to form. While the overall climate is warm due to its proximity to hell, Burrowgatory does experience seasons, seeing hot summers and cool, rainy winters. It is unknown if the light cycles seen in Burrowgatory shift the length of days throughout the year as is seen on the surface.
=== Vegetation ===
Vegetation is able to grow naturally in Burrowgatory thanks to the light and rain present, however it is darker in color than surface vegetation and not as prolific, likely due to the limited resources available. Cultivates plant species, on the other hand, are easy to grow thanks to the magical energies of hell and the warm climate of Burrowgatory, both courtesy of its proximity to hell. Blight is noted to be a possibility, however the risk of it is said to be low, and harvest is possible year-round, allowing relatively little farmland needed to sustain the inhabitants.
Many crops are similar if not identical to crops from the surface, however some plants have been mutated by hellish energies and allow for strange and unusual crops, including "eggplants" that produce egg-like fruit, "milkweed" that is used to create dairy substitutes, and multiple plant-based meat substitutes.https://succubuns.com/info/food
=== Animals ===
Succubuns and Cherubuns are the only true animals in Burrowgatory. If there were other animals, it is stated that they "would evolve intelligence in the same way that succubuns did".
Imps act as animal analogs, though they are not truly living creatures and dissipate into nothing when killed. As such, they cannot be used as livestock. Imps may occur naturally anywhere in Burrowgatory as they are collections of hellish energies taking on the forms of creatures.Citation needed
== The City ==
An ever-expanding city marks the center of Burrowgatory. Bars, restaurants, casinos, brothels, and similar places of entertainment are commonplace, and all of the available shops are found somewhere within the city. The majority of succubuns may live and/or work in the city, due to it being the major hub of activity in Burrowgatory.
Politicians are mentioned to exist, however as of yet no specific system of governance or political figures have been seen in-game. The closest thing to a political entity so far seems to be the Church of Sulfur, who are involved in liaising between succubuns and demons, introducing newly matured succubuns into society, helping to integrate envy succubuns and cherubuns into society, and potentially providing additional services to those in need. The Church is additionally known to leverage its connection with demons as a way to maintain their influence, further suggesting its dual existence as both a place of worship and an explicitly political entity. Despite Mercy's known embezzlement, the Church appears to be robust enough to still be able to provide such services without issue.
Despite running on ostensibly a capitalist-esque economic system, and the widespread corruption and crime found among large organizations, the social safetynet in place for residents appears to be rather robustAs seen in the integration of Envy succubuns into society.. The majority of this aid seems to come from the Church, however other political groups could potentially have a hand in things.
The city has suburbs around the fringes of the city, however these are comparatively small areas, with the bulk of the population being centered in the inner city. There are additionally a handful of scattered villages outside of the city proper, though these, too, are small and relatively uncommon.
