The Shelter Settlement in Aurora | World Anvil

The Shelter

The Shelter is a a small, makeshift hut located in the the moors. It is the only permanent camp of its kind there. Variants who are sent out into the moors often make it their mission to find this camp, so that they have a stable and consistent place to live as they wait out their exile. This means that most Variants do not explore the moors beyond the Shelter, making the terrain, enviroment, and particularly the limits of the moors largely unknown.   The land it is located on does not rise and fall with the hills, perhaps due to being located near a forest. This makes it an ideal spot as the Shelter is unlikely to be destroyed.

Government

Whoever finds the Shelter is responsible for fixing it up and managing its upkeep. This can be quite the task, as it is often in a dilapidated state from the elements and lack of use.

Infrastructure

There is a small patch of fenced-off land next to the shelter that is used for growing food and other plants.

Assets

There are plenty of hidden stores for food and equipment designed to keep it safe from any animals that might wander into the Shelter from the nearby forest.

History

It is unknown which Variant first built the Shelter, or if they survived their exile.

Points of interest

The Shelter is located near a forest, which makes it easier to forage for food. However, this also means the Shelter can become a target for animals if the current inhabitant is not careful about protecting their stores.

Architecture

The Shelter has a surprisingly strong foundation. It is rumoured that it and the walls were infused with pieces of land from Citadel that were sculpted with smuggled tech. The walls and roof are made from wood stuck together with sticky moss.
