A.R.C.A.N.E. – Anomalous Research, Containment And Neuro-Experimental Facility

Facility Overview

A massive, multi-structure research complex designed to contain, study, and experiment on anomalous beings (“Subjects”).

Layout:

Main Tower Dozens of floors, each dedicated to a research category Each floor holds 300+ subjects Every floor is divided into 3 wings (A, B, C)

Lower Levels (“Basement Floors”) ~5 highly restricted levels Designed for extreme containment Houses the most dangerous, unstable, or unknown entities

Connected Buildings:

Staff Residence Complex Housing for high-ranking personnel Includes recreation areas, private labs, and restricted lounges

Data & Research Hub Central analysis building Used for: Reviewing test results Storing subject data Large staff meetings Strategic planning

Subject Classification System

Each subject is identified by:

Subject Number (primary identifier) Wing Letter (A / B / C) Behavior Color Code:

🔴 Red – Highly aggressive / dangerous 🟡 Yellow – Unstable / emotionally reactive 🟢 Green – Docile / cooperative

Example: #4821-C 🔴

Wing System (Per Floor)

Wing A Docile, cooperative, or weak subjects

Wing B Moderately aggressive or unpredictable subjects

Wing C Highly dangerous, powerful, or uncontrollable subjects

Floor Types

Demi-Human Floors (2) Superpower Floors (3) (largest विभाग) Mental/Emotional Instability Floor (1) Subjects whose abilities are tied to emotions or mental state

Entity Floors (~5) Unknown, non-human, or incomprehensible beings

Medical Floor (1) Neutral ground Run by a widely respected lead researcher

Containment/Isolation Floors (~5 underground)

Staff Hierarchy

Head Researcher (1) Assistant to Head Floor Leaders Wing Leaders Head of Security Specialists Researchers / Doctors

Intake Process (New Subjects)

Pre-Capture Observation Subjects are secretly monitored beforehand

Initial Contact Staff attempt communication and personality assessment

Temporary Containment (~3 weeks) Placed in reinforced holding cells Abilities tested and analyzed

Final Assignment Floor designation Wing classification Color coding

Added Worldbuilding (New Ideas)

Security Measures

Automated Lockdown System Entire floors can seal instantly

Power Dampening Fields Weakens or suppresses abilities in certain zones

Wing-Specific Barriers Stronger containment tech in Wing C

Surveillance AI Tracks movement, behavior, and anomalies in real time

Response Units Rapid-response security teams for breaches

Rooms on Each Floor

Each floor includes:

Containment Cells Customized per subject (temperature, materials, restraints)

Testing Chambers Ability testing (combat, endurance, control) Often reinforced or modular

Observation Rooms One-way glass monitoring Behavioral analysis

Interview Rooms For psychological evaluation and questioning

Recovery Rooms Post-experiment stabilization

Isolation Cells Temporary punishment or safety containment

Medical Floor Expansion

Neutral territory (even aggressive subjects are treated)
