Hybrid's Island

### The Fortress

The Fortress itself is by far the most fascinating and unexplainable thing on the entire island, seeming to act more like an ever-changing pocket dimension rather than an actual corporeal building. The interior is modern, visually resembling that of human homes and if one didn't know better, would easily mistake it for an ordinary human structure. Alas, the geography of this edifice is simply impossible. The Fortress contains a massive multitude of rooms with many varying purposes, they are as follows:

#### Personal Quarters

Self-explanatory, there are several rooms, one each dedicated to people allowed inside the Fortress, to which there are only currently 7 rooms, however the Fortress seems to not have an issue in forming more:

##### Velvet's Room

An open room with a huge window, the bed sitting directly to the side of it. Most of the walls are covered in album posters and fan-art, most of which is of herself or her albums and music, though there are a few others, notably Belphegor's "Into The Abyss" and Necromancin' Dancin's "ARISE!". The main bedroom connects to a walk-in wardrobe with too many clothes for a sane person to be able to find their way out of, as well as an ensuite containing a shower, bench and sink, toilet and a triangle bath. Velvet's room also connects to her studio, a huge room packed to the brim with acoustic foam and musical equipment.

#### The Arcade / Games Room

A massive room with a tall ceiling, similar in size to that of the Cinema Room, but full of different gaming stations and with an entire two walls dedicated to stock of board, card, table-top, etc, games. The room, like most, if not all, the rooms in the Fortress, has a surround sound system hooked up to a control panel, where one can put on music, a video or game. Here, the Lads primarily find themselves playing games such as Dungeons & Dragons. This is also where Hybrid displays all of his hard-copy videogames and miniature collections, his miniature collects spans everything from D&D to Warhammer 40'000, and well beyond just those.

#### The Cinema

A huge room covered in pitch-black sound proofing and acoustics foam, with a large C-shaped couch in the centre and a coffee table in the centre of that, here the Lads do what anyone does in a Cinema; they watch Hybrid's videos. No, although they do sometimes, the Cinema is in fact primarily used as a cinema, used to watch movies with volume so loud that you have to bring plastic dishes in so they don't explode.

#### The Lounge

The room where the Lads would most often be found together, containing a large L-shaped couch, several recliners, a large TV and appropriate sound system. This openly connects to a large kitchen with nearly all imaginable cooking stations, most notably however is the "Eternal Frost Box", a bottomless refrigerator that contains an endless supply of nearly any imaginable beverage. Sitting between the kitchen and the actual lounge part of the Lounge, is a large dinner table which can split into 2 smaller tables, as well as 16 chairs, Hybrid does not remember why he bought 16 chairs, as only 7 people have ever actually entered this room.

#### The Pool Room

Possibly the largest room in the entire Fortress, as it houses several bodies of water (and some not water), coming with change rooms, showers and even seating areas. The pools contained within this room vary is size, shape and purpose, but all are used by various members entering here, primarily by Mexia, who greatly enjoys swimming. Other pools; particularly the hot tub, are found often being used by Los as an even more relaxing way to use bath salts. The entire list of pools is as follows:

An Olympic swimming pool, 50m long, 25m wide and 10m deep.

A depth pool, a rather self-explanatory pool with a very deep bottom, 50m long, 50m wide, 50m deep.

A hot tub, aka. a spa.

The *hot* tub, a spa filled with truly molten and quick-flowing magma. No one, including Hybrid himself, uses this, so no one knows why it is there other than a one-off terrible joke.

##### The Leviathan Pool

Across the far side of the pool room is a huge broken hole in the floor, which inside descends down into an immensely dark abyss of water. Everyone who has stood above it feels deeply uneasy, with the exception of Hybrid, who swims down into it to clear his head of troubles, and can be down there for up to several days. Hybrid states that it's safe to swim in this body of water, and to simply "watch out for the stone pillars".

#### The VR Room

A huge room of quickly morphing form, this room is a highly-interactable computer built and installed by Cybrid who took great pride in its extremely advanced creation. The room requires but a single headset to be able to be used, and games and simulations played inside of it will interact directly with the room itself, creating walls, platforms, the entire environment that is present inside the virtual world showed to the user by the lightweight headset. A truly unbelievable piece of technology.

#### The Vault / Trophy Room

A long hallway filled with countless artefacts, objects and valuables, the Vault itself only openable by Hybrid himself, for no one else is capable of budging the impossibly heavy door. Many of the items in this room do not seem of Earthly origin, and some even seem outright magical. Seemingly sentient and omniscient, the podiums, cases, containments and so on of the Vault write themselves, stating the name and a short description of the object placed on/in them. They can be used similar to a touch screen, swiping left and right to reveal more information, down to details that the person who placed the item there may not even know. The most special part of the plates on the podiums, is they love to be shameless assholes, making unfunny or infuriating “jokes”, but they can come out with some good jabs every now and then.

### The Landscape

The majority of the 15'520km² is open grassland with few footpaths traversing it, though to the south is a large forest, and the entire island is outlined in beaches of varying size. In the depths of the southern forest is a small mountain range with a waterfall and open caves that descend down into deep caverns that snake through the island's underground.

### The Surrounding Ocean

The ocean enveloping the island is crystal clear and entirely void of pollution, comparable to that of Hawaii. The island itself rests on what seems like a random patch of raised earth in the middle of nowhere, with a somewhat large stretch of slowly-deepening ground before dropping straight down into the open abyssal ocean. A reef rests on the west-north-west side of the island and is home to many kinds of aquatic life.
