In the unyielding darkness of the Underground, power is the key to life, and the source of all power is held at Bibere Station. A once pristine geothermal power station has since transformed into a hot, damp, sprawling mass of pipes, steam and cables, fixed and fixed again, and somehow still standing, still running endlessly to supply the people with electricity.
Nearby, a processing plant collects waste water from the power plant and the rest of the Underground, supplemented by a nearby aquifer, and purifies it for distribution along the many tunnels and tracks to the people. Each day, hard-working folk of the Underground grind tirelessly at Bibere to ensure that no-one has to go without their basic necessities.

Scientist Jules | They/them | One of the valued workers of Bibere Station. Just don't speak too loudly around them…they haven't slept in a few days. |
This station is home to the Director’s Office. Access is not expressly forbidden, and there’s certainly no one at the door…but the careful red eyes of a few CCTV cameras keep watch over the station regardless.

Director Avgust Kovač | He/him/zie/zir | The current Director, and the third since the disaster struck. |
Secretary Aslan Nureyev | They/them | The Secretary to the Director's office, and Kovač's right-hand… guy? Suave, sly, and just a little cold, but tolerated fairly well amongst the populace. |
Enforcer Fatima | She/her | Works in the Director's office. Her role is a little ambiguous, but no one really wants to be the first to ask what she does. |
In the far depths of the Underground’s periphery, toward the end of a long, winding tram line, lies the Midnight Oil. Part speakeasy, part casino, Nocturne is a vibrant station, boasting surprising space and luxury, given its location. Entry is not easy, of course, and not all that make it to the station are permitted admission - the Lady of the Light runs a rather tight ship.
Many know of this faraway station, yet few could say anything more.
