Numenera - The Void Repository

In northwestern Malevich, strangers have been found and continue to be found from time to time.  They appear human, but speak in strange tongues, wear unusual garments, and seem completely bewildered by the Ninth World.  At first, they were thought to be ultra-terrestrials, somehow related to those on the other side of the portal in Yenth, but neither group understood the other.

The fourth expedition to locate the source of the strangers finally revealed the origin, but further reconnaissance produced only more mysteries.  In the forested hills south of The Wyr River, a chasm was found with a sloped path leading to the surface.  Within, a bizarre and mostly inaccessible installation was found to be the gateway these odd humans were coming from.  With the use of Comprehension Grafts, the newcomers told strange stories of bright lights, odd humanoids, terrifying machinery, and vehicles that could only be Voidgliders.  All awoke in a circular room ringed with unique crystals.  After contact with a crystal, yet more strange lights infused their bodies before a door opened and they were forced into the installation in the chasm.  No one has yet been able to open the door from this side nor force it to remain open when a newcomer arrives.

Working for one of the organizations competing for power in the Steadfast, you have been charged with helping to establish a research outpost in the forest.  Further study of the installation is necessary, and the outpost will need space for living quarters, laboratories and workshops, food and equipment storage, and defense.  You will need to navigate the mortal dangers of the forest denizens and the deadlier threat of power clashes among the competing factions grasping for more of Malevich's mud.
