Mine Bottom
At the bottom-most depth of the mine, down a horizontal passageway, a large multi-level conveyer structure with embedded drills is connected to the wall. Connected rails and carts move the precious ore up on automated treads. The drills provide means of digging deeper into the the ground. These drills now lie stopped, partway into the crumbling earth, revealing an unearthed and natural cavern. Electrical lines, lights, and ladders provide entrance down into the fizzure.
Mine Overlook
This is where the road leads and begins its descent down into the pit mine. Concentric rail lines twist and spiral downward, like giant steps down, down, down to a depth of over 1000 feet deep.
Mining Offices
The mining offices are made up of two sets of five mobile trailers, interconnected with bridges. One set resides atop the bottom set. These offices in turn are atop a mobile flat bead platform. The platform is mobile but very slow with massive rail wheels easily three times the height of a man. In super bad weather extra cables can cinch the entier platform and offices to the mine wall. A retractable stairway at the center of the platform folds down to ground level for easy entrance into the mine via a hatch.
NPC Holding Area for Playable NPCs

Riftfall Haven - Cliffside Landing Platform
The Cliffside Landing Platform is a stark reminder of humanity's relentless ambition to conquer the stars.

Riftfall Haven - Nexus Medical Center
The Nexus Medical Center in Riftview Haven is a once-thriving facility now shrouded in eerie silence and a sense of dread. Flickering emergency lights cast disorienting shadows on the cold, metallic walls, and the faint, almost imperceptible hum of malfunctioning equipment fills the air. Abandoned gurneys and overturned medical trays litter the corridors, while unsettling echoes of long-lost patients reverberate against the sterile surfaces. Blood smears are on the walls and bloody hand prints on window panes. Something terrible went wrong here, but what? Franz, when players enter this facility, ask them to roll a Perception check. On a 15+, they see a xenomorph.
