The Silo

**The Silo** is an underground bunker complex serving as the last refuge of ten thousand people. Buried deep underground, no one knows why the Silo was built or who built it. Outside the Silo is a toxic and apocalyptic wasteland. No one knows how old the Silo is, though it is said to be at least 140 years old.

The Silo contains 144 levels, connected by the Stairwell, a spiralling staircase that runs down the center of the facility. The Silo is divided into three general areas: Up Top, the Mids, and the Deep Down. Several levels are given over to crop production and livestock rearing, and communal Cafeterias are located on several levels. Up Top houses the Airlock to the outside world and the headquarters of the Sheriff Department. The Mids houses residential areas and food production facilities. The Deep Down houses the generators that keep water and power running in the Silo.

A cavern exists beneath the Silo. The remains of the digging machine that created **the Silo** and an old tunnel with a door are located in there. Very few know about its existence.
