- Canon: N/A
- Links: N/A
- Military Base Name: Invicta Castellum
- Classification: Military Base
- Location: Osseriton
- Affiliation: The Fel Empire, Clan Mortui
- Population: Heavy
- Demographics: 90% human. 99% of all living here are part of the military
- Accessibility: The building was once accessible to the citizens of the Fel Empire. However, since it has become a military complex, only military members and ally's may enter. Everyone, without exception, must go through multiple checkpoints. The farther in you go, the more advanced the checkpoints. If you are not part of the Fel military or Clan Mortui, one must request temporary access via the state embassy. Should anyone attempt to enter without proper identification, troops will be put on high alert and attempt to arrest the perpetrator. Should this not work, they will then try to kill said perpetrator. Next, it is essentially impossible to get to the base via boat. There are several AT-ADs stationed there at all times, along with turret emplacements. Any uncleared craft in the airspace will receive only one warning before being shot down.
- Access to the building is open freely to citizens of the Fel Empire after passing a security check. Non-citizens of the Fel Empire must apply for temporary access via their state's embassy or by sending a request directly to the government's administration bureau. It is almost completely unfeasible to access the castle by boat as it used to be, so two launch pads remain open 24/7 provided by the local municipality. Uncleared craft entering the airspace are liable to be shot down without any warning.
- Description: The Invicta Castellum is massive. Massive is the only good way to describe it. At first glance it looks like any other military base, only larger. But looking closer one can see the hub of activity that is ongoing at all times.
- Ground access point - Main military entrance. This checkpoint is where the first check occurs. This is where one proves who they are, and their purpose in the base is confirmed and allowed.
- The 'Harris' Airstrip - Named after the current Premier. Used for larger craft that would not be accommodated by the launch pads, and also used by permanently stationed interceptors. At the front are two air traffic control towers. This is mainly used for important officials.
- Landing Runway - This is as the name implies, the landing runway. Whereas before one had to use the airstrip, that simply wasn't enough for a full military complex. Thus, the runway was built.
- Imperial Information Center - Main processing facility for most data that the spy network collects and stores, used as a backup for any civilian records.
- External waste pipes - Constantly pumping out excess sewage, waste etc. Can be closed off temporarily by manual control, or can have a gate be brought down by manual operation preventing any potential enemies from accessing the facility without stinking up the entire base
- Imperial Barracks section - As the name implies, this is the part where all the barracks are located. There are enough to hold a portion of the normal Fel Empire if need be. However, usually only occupied by 3k troops. This part of the base was rather small and has been significantly been expanded to properly accommodate all of these troops. The barracks are usually several stories tall, with all having been expanded into the ground.

The military base was nothing of the sort, it was a complex that acted as the capital of the Empire. It used to merely be a castle surrounded by a series mountains in the center of a rather too large lake. The building has stood the test of time, with many archaeologists unable to pinpoint its exact construction date. As such, it's not difficult to see why its rather awkward logistical position would prove difficult to justify spending any money on it by modern standards, though the vicinity actually used to be filled with water. The natural erosion along with a nearly cataclysmic natural earthquake caused the once enclosed basin to open and flood flat ground near it.
Since then, the ground has become lush with greenery that the government has refused to destroy - partly because of a millitant environmentalist minister, partly because of the natural deterrence it gives to citizens which allows the bureaucrats to keep an eye on visitors - it has since been used as a center for administration for the majority of government departments.
Repairs were made and fully added in. Among those were the additional sewage outline pipes, the two landing pads and the airstrip that has been expanded from the time of the "complex"
Repairs have had to be undertaken in the forms of constructing additional sewage outline pipes, blocking up the former ones and shutting them off completely, with the only possible access other than the two aforementioned landing pads being a heavily guarded and heavily restricted elevator to the miniature airstrip that has been constructed.
Under the rule of Toran, the base was a symbol of oppression and terror. Thus when he lost his power, the base was left to rot because of it's symbolism. However, one day Adenn Kyramud came along and wished to renovate the base. He was given permission by the Premier to do so, on one condition. The removal of the palace. Said palace was quickly destroyed in a PR stunt to garner support for the base. It was a resounding success. Thus, the base was renovated. This is the subsequent product.
Once he received permission, Adenn Kyramud had some of his best engineers come to Osseriton to renovate the base. They worked for months before it was all finished. When it was done, it immediately became the military center. Now, whenever a member of Clan Mortui is seen within this base, they are treated with respect. After all, the base is only possible thanks to their clan.
