Followed from this entry
Government Sector
The Government Sector was the fortified EarthGov and CEC district of Titan Station, home to the Project Telomere research that built new Markers from the minds of Marker survivors. It was Director Hans Tiedemann's last stronghold during the 2511 outbreak before the reactor tore the Sprawl apart.
The Sprawl
Titan Station, known informally as the Sprawl, was an EarthGov metropolis built around the last fragment of Saturn's moon Titan. Home to over a million people, it housed the secret Project Telomere and the Site 12 Marker, and fell to a Necromorph outbreak in 2511 that destroyed the station entirely.
Titan Elementary School
Titan Elementary School was a school in the Concourse of Titan Station that taught children from infancy through middle school. As the Site 12 Marker's influence spread, its pupils grew violent and unstable, and the school became a source of many of the child Necromorphs of the outbreak.
USG Ishimura
The USG Ishimura was the flagship of the Concordance Extraction Corporation and the first Planet Cracker-class mining ship. After recovering Marker 3A from Aegis VII in 2508, it became the site of a catastrophic Necromorph outbreak that wiped out its crew and bound its name to the history of the Markers.
Benjamin Mathius
Benjamin Mathius was the captain of the USG Ishimura and a high ranking Unitologist, placed in command to retrieve Marker 3A from Aegis VII for the Church. His devotion and the Marker's influence drove him to madness, and he died restrained on his own ship as the outbreak began.
Crawler
Crawlers were explosive Necromorphs formed from reanimated infants, their swollen bodies carrying an organic explosive, encountered on the Sprawl and later on Tau Volantis in alien form.
