RPPR Illustrated: Labyrinth of Lost Futures - The Bunker Level

The Bunker is where the real money is. It’s bigger than the surface and the subway although no one knows how exactly how big it is. Explorers keep finding new hubs and sections and older sections are often repopulated by newer inhabitants. It’s extremely dangerous, so be wary. They started building it shortly before the Cold War began and they haven’t stopped. [REDACTED] still sends in teams to excavate new sections, although they won’t say why they’re still digging.
The Bleak are very common down there, in a lot of different forms and sometimes in groups. There’s even more dangerous entities as well. A lot of scientists built labs down in the Bunker during the Cold War, mixing science with the occult. Some of these experiments escaped and still wander the halls of the Bunker. The rewards are worth taking the risk. Explorers have made fortunes from their discoveries down there. Not just in wealth, but in power. Artifacts that can warp reality, secrets that can change history. The allure of the Bunker is irresistible to many explorers and a graveyard to countless others.
EXCERPT FROM DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE INTEL BRIEFING
This photo indicates a fascinating and unusual architectural history. The statue houses an industrial-sized inflow fan for air circulation. The statue is clearly a product of Socialist Realism, possibly from the 1940s. However, the bunker doors do not show signs of Soviet design style. The Vickers machine gun dates back before World War 1, although they were in use in some parts of the world well into the Cold War. Analysis of the graffiti reveals multiple languages and slogans linked to Latin American guerrillas, American dissident groups from the 1950s, and even deserters from the Red Army, circa 1950. The most troubling aspect are the empty uniforms and the torn open double doors at the end of the hall. The door shows no sign of a blast or explosion, as there are no scorch marks or scratches. It looks more like a piece of crumpled paper than a steel door. An enormous amount of force was applied to the door to do that. What could have applied that force? The uniforms show no damage - no tears, bloodstains, or holes. Presumably the people wearing the uniforms manned the machine gun. Why did they remove their uniforms and leave them arranged like that? Or did something happen to them that left their uniforms intact?
