Wylde Labs
Location: Unnamed mountain range, Copper 9
Elevation: Unknown
Wylde Labs, also known as Doctor Wylde's Laboratory, is the home of the Wylde family and a top secret facility hidden in the mountains. It's actually built into the mountains themselves, with much of the laboratory located underground.
The laboratory is heavily guarded on all sides by thick stone walls and powerful defensive batteries, ranging from sniper nests to anti-air missile launchers, not to mention the countless automatons constantly patrolling the grounds. The interior is also guarded with automatons patrolling the halls and various turrets hidden in the ceiling. The paths to and from the laboratory are extremely easy to miss if you don't know what you're looking for, and to even enter the place without being captured or killed you need permission, proof of permission, and ideally an appointed guide who's already familiar with the area and trusted by the guards. This guide is usually either one of the staff or a member of the Wylde family.
Anyone and everyone who enters the facility must first swear an oath of secrecy that what they see and do in the facility (pertaining to the work done in the lower levels) stays in the facility. Because of this, it's unclear what exactly they do in there. Some say the lab researches the various life forms, commonly referred to as "monsters," that have survived and adapted to Copper 9's eternal winter and poisonous atmosphere. Others say they build weapons and put them up for auction on the black market. No one knows for certain, though.
The mountain range that houses and hides the laboratory is an hour's drive north of the old city near Outpost 3.
