Hollow Rock

Hollow Rock is a small mining community located beneath the surface of the planet Pearl.   Hollow Rock has a healthy manufacturing industry:
  • They produce a variety of salts from processing methane through halogenation.
  • Various rare metals come from mining operations utilizing Burrow Boars for the digging.
  • Meat from the Burrow Boars is also a popular export.
Burrow Boars are a porcine adjacent life form. They typically have a body mass of about 140 kg (308 lbs.), and a shoulder height of about 1 meter (3' 3"). They gain nutrients by "eating" rock and stone with their powerful jaws. Their tusks and clawed feet are well adapted to digging through rock and dirt. Their meat is mineral rich and considered to be quite tasty. "Rock Bacon" being widely held as the most delicious portion of the Burrow Boar.   Long cylindrical vehicles, called Carriages, are used for transportation. People, boars, and ore are all moved around Hollow Rock by carriages. Carriages have motorized wheels in the front and back of the carriage, and in all four ordinal locations to provide maximum grip while traversing the cavern systems.   Many of the population of Hollow Rock belong to the Conerite cult , an anti-AI, anti self-relegating mechanoids cult.
