Pithos Genesis Research Station
A lost research station that fell into the event horizon of a super massive black hole.
Witnesses: N/A
Investigation Summary: No traces of the station were found in the sector. Operatives surmise the station was sabotaged and purposefully de-orbited into the black hole's event horizon. Motive unclear.
We are unable to investigate further, insufficient technology to search beyond the event horizon.
Action Report: Nearby star systems have been alerted to look out for survivors. House Serpentes agents have notified the next of kin. Investigation concluded.
Spacebook doesn't work here but there's plenty of friendly Sentients here and enough Jills to form a Gathering so Jill has someone to talk to about her day.
The Future is Now is a cheesy sci-fi setting set in a nonsense universe where humans were exterminated without a trace eons ago and are long forgotten. The only remnants of humanity is that it's culture survived in a universe full of humanaboos.
We Sentients used to gaze at the stars and wondered what enigmas hid in the heavens. Now we stare into the abyss, praying nothing lurks in the darkness.

History
What do you mean they're in the walls? They're coming out of the walls? ... oh gods the bodies are in the walls.A state of the art Genesis class research station can sustain 800 standard carbon based lifeforms indefinitely in hostile environments. The station is autonomous and able to maintain orbit without maintenance. The station was commissioned several space decades ago, skirting the event horizon of Pandora of P-320-X4, a super-massive black hole with an unusually weak gravitational field safe enough for a habitable space station.
Groups of Interest
What brings Sentients to this god forsaken deep space backwater nebula? Surely not for hunting Space Elf. Is it the Elf steaks?Before the disappearance of the station, several major races were involved in the station's operation for their own various agendas.
Dwarf Enterprises
What brings people to the deadliest thing in the universe? I don't know but I bet we'll make a killing.Invested resources to build the station at maximum efficiency, resulting in hundreds of Dwarves falling into the black hole's event horizon due to lax, but cost effective, safety regulations.
Orthodoxy of the Keikoku Otaku Itai Doctrine
Known as K.O.I, they're the station's researchers. The K.O.I believe that with modifications to a Penetration drive, a ship could warp through the event horizon of the black hole and explore it safely, providing valuable academic and philosophical insight into what lies inside a black hole, believing it to be another scientific discoveries that would lead them one step closer to God.Silics Institute
The Silics Institute recognize the location's unique condition are valuable testing grounds for high gravity prototype drives. Rather on focusing on large innovations like the K.O.I, Silics prefer testing and discovering minor improvements to their current technology.Jill
You can find Jill everywhere, no surprise she's here too. You know, i'm actually dating Jill and I asked her to come along, she's a bit plain but that's what I like about her.Since she was a little girl Jill always wanted to live an exciting life although danger was not her middle name, so she instead works at a Genesis station on the edge of Pandora of P-320-X4's event horizon, wait until her friends hear about this.
Spacebook doesn't work here but there's plenty of friendly Sentients here and enough Jills to form a Gathering so Jill has someone to talk to about her day.

Layout
It's a fancy sealed box with windows along the whole thing? Windows, structural weak points, so you can stare at one of the scariest, most dangerous, hellish landscapes in the universe? Fine but a therapist will cost ya extra.
Core
Common area for daily operations between races.Entertainment Bay
The black hole's gravity interferes with communications. Only contact with the outside universe are weekly barges containing personnel and data drives with news, space mail, and last week's episode of Game of Helmcontrol.Docking
A specialized hangar bay that neutralizes the effects of the black hole's gravity. Due to high gravity, only transport barges with prototype high grav engines can escape the black hole's gravity.Cost of fuel, stress, and maintenance of these engines can only operate once per week on a strict schedule.
Habitats
Throughout the station there are 12 habitats used for housing, each environmentally sealed atmospheres catering to the preferences of specific races.Habitat of Note: Habitat 7
I love the way you've formatted your article. It really makes it easy to read each section. Are Jills a species or are they like Nurse Joy from the Pokemon universe where all the members of a family are named the same and look identical?
Thanks! Glad to hear the formatting's good.
I'm not sure if you caught but the links have tooltips with the races information, I may have to put it in the article if people aren't aware of that feature.
Which links? I was looking specifically for them, but I only see tooltips for space decades, Penetration drive, and gathering. If you're talking about words like Space Elf or Elf that are a different color those aren't showing up as clickable links or tooltips.
Oh, I see the tooltips don't appear unless the linked article is public, that would explain it. My mistake, I'll fix that now.
