Omnitopia

When Professor Sidney Ruffleberg envisioned the city of tomorrow, he imagined a world where humans were free to pursue their dreams and the menial tasks of managing the world were left in the hands of robots such as Carltron. The city of Omnitopia was created with the vision of a Jetsons-Esque future of fantastical Science Fiction. A flying city of brushed steel and aluminum, where small drones took out the garbage and served the food court. It is an ideal utopia comprised of outdoor areas and habitats, as well as many interconnected indoor areas.

During the parties visit, only a small fraction of these areas were visited. Now that the station belongs to the party, it is open for exploration. Several systems which had been disabled during Carltron's tenure (such as external vegetation and life support) have been restored.

Omnitopia is divided into four primary sectors. Each sector is constructed into and ontop of a large asteroid, and joined to the center of the city by a metal strut that serves as a bridge. Each module has it's own independant power core of a type that has still not been identified, as well as it's own independant life support system, environmental control, and security system.

Omnitopia West is the residential/commercial module of the station, and as such, is the one most residents were intended to spend their time in. Many of its internal spaces have a Mall of America type feeling with multiple levels and hallways opening up into larger open spaces. The surface of the asteroid is a lush park dotted with several towering arcologies that rise above the parks, each featuring lavish living quarters and amenities. This module also contains the 'Arrival Room', where Professor Ruffleberg and his guests first arrived, and where he was forced to remain with his granddaughter Elizabeth for several years.

Omnitopia North is the research and development wing of Omnitopia, created to be the next great center for scientific research into any and all fields. Dozens of laboratories study everything from Arcane Science and Philosophy to Biology and Physics. R&D is overseen from a central control room. During the Siege of Omnitopia, Carltron unleashed several research experiments into the module in the hopes of slowing the party. As such, this sector is still considered dangerous and cordoned off. It is known to contain over a dozen functioning laboratories as well as at least one substantial habitat biome (likely more). The surface of this module is entirely covered by the upper levels of the Research Center, a large grey stone building with tiered sloping levels of glass overlooking the edge of the module.

Omnitopia East is the cities industrial center. The majority of this sector of the station is comprised of automated manufacturing plants, hangars, and storage depots. The surface of the module is primarily a set of interconnected factories which produce the mechanical parts and food supplies needed to cover the cities basic needs. The asteroid itself however has been hollowed into a honeycomb, 40 stacked hangars and 16 storage bays descend all the way to the lowest point of the asteroid. Each hangar bay is quite massive, stretching two kilometers into the asteroid, and features adaptable gantries for parking craft up to the size of a Star Destroyer. Each hangar can hold one capital ship, multiple frigates, or thousands of personal ships.

Central Omnitopia is the nerve center of the city. Connected to all three modules, it is a large saucer shaped section atop a central descending spire. The asteroid here is largely inaccessible, as the saucer sits atop the rock and largely occupies it's surface area, while the spire hangs below it for some distance. The perimeter of the saucer is lined with some trees and grass areas, however it quickly terminates in a rocky cliffside that forms the edge of the station. It houses the command center, hospital, security and armory sector, Core Engineering, Interloper Assembly, the cities own Computer Core, and the disused Server Bay that once housed Carltron's core.
