The Works

Overseen by the holographic artificial intelligence, P.L.A.T.O., The Works is a high tech building built to house Force Works and the Hextrix. The Works can accommodate up to sixty residents. There are ten common living areas that can house four people each with a shared washroom per common area. There are also eight apartment style units designed to accommodate two people per unit. Additionally, the Starks have a double unit where their family lives when not at Vanderpump in LA or Stark Tower in NY.

This is what is known about The Works from a rules perspective. We have developed it enough to know the basic layout and what might be available, but are not beholden to this since the team has Tony Stark funding them.   The Works   Size: Gargantuan Cost: 4 Toughness: 6 Cost: Spaces: 125   Features   Artificer Lab Cost: 38 Spaces: 1 Accommodates 5 people 30 points of magical inventions (6) Any combination of magical invention traits (x5) Reduced Design Time (2): 1/2 (1/4 if trained) Reduced Construction Time (2): 1/2 Design Checks +4, Construction Checks +4 (4)   Automated   Barrier (Steep Cliff) Cost: 7 Spaces: None (Outside of Base) DC 16 Athletics Check.

The Works is is a large metal and glass capsule shaped skyscraper built into the side of a cliff next to a waterfall. Some of the amenities include a motor pool, a forensics lab, a workshop, and a ritual chamber.

The Works is a new building. It was built as a response to some Avengers wanting to continue to work after they were no longer being affiliated directly with the Avengers. It was also an ideal location for some of Tony Stark's experiments.
