VAT CONTROL CENTER. The walls are lined with metal machinery. In the
center of the room is a smooth white metallic dome with pipes and
wires sticking out of it going to the floor and ceiling. Next to the
dome is a metal box about the size of a lunchbox on a four foot high
pole. It has a slot to accept the cards from Rooms 44, 53, and 67.
Placing
a card within the slot reader will cause the metal dome machine to
begin creating a vat creature specified on the card. The pipes will
start pulsing and throbbing as they feed in vat media and electrical
surges. After about a turn, the dome will split revealing the vat
creature. For creatures whose statistics depend on their creator, the
creator is the person who placed the card in the slot. Explanations
given are based on the assumption that the creator adopts the vat
creature. Unless noted below, creatures created in this way become
the followers of their creator, actually viewing them as a parent.
