The Defenders of the Universe's Headquarters

The **Defenders of the Universe Headquarters** is a Technocorp warehouse located in the Junkyard which was renovated by Loai Ismail to become the Defenders of the Universes' primary base of operations following the Battle of Metropole High.

## History

### Technocorp Warehouse

Loai Ismail had established numerous Technocorp facilities in the UAE, including a warehouse in The Junkyard which was used to store some of Technocorp's equipment. Eventually, Technocorp abandoned the warehouse, although some of the equipment remained stored inside.

### The Defenders of the Universe Base

Shortly after the Battle of Metropole High and Ivan Shreikov's defeat, the Defenders of the Universe formed, so Loai Ismail repurposed the Technocorp warehouse into the Defenders Compound. With the assistance, provided by Technocorp employees and Aron Lee, the Compound was used for scientific research, military training, weapons development, and the new Defenders program.
