The Encroachment

Known but unmapped, Anteverse 299 has previously been visited by TransRecon Team 7, who judged the location hostile and requested more probe-based research before further expeditions could safely proceed. Populated by a plethora of varied larval, troglyditic, cancrine, gelatinous, crystalline, fungal, vermicular and semi-sentient biomechanical entities, Anteverse 299 is a realm to be 'treated with great respect', in the words of Dr. Derek Manse. Precisely how a significant piece of this realm ended up embedded in the depths of the GATE Cascade Research Facility remains unknown, and the threat of further regional replacements weighs heavily on the minds of many researchers.
