((Loosely based on prison planet from Riddick))

"You have been brought here for one of three purposes. To live in the unnamed city. You are Necromonger/Bounty Hunter dropping off your latest bounty at Butcher Bay. You are a prisoner, the lowest of life forms, condemned to life imprisonment in eternal darkness; surrounding you are mass murderers, the mentally corrupt, the physically disfigured, rapists, masochists, and more. You are not in Hell, those who are lucky have been sent there. You are at Butcher Bay. Fight to survive, and maybe, just maybe you'll escape from this planet."

Welcome to Butcher Bay
Located 5 thousand miles from any inhabitable planet, you have arrived at Prison Planet #A35. Three times the size of Earth, now a desolate wasteland, and once called Helion Prime. An uneven rocky terrain covers the entire planet completely drenched due to constant rain and thunderstorms. The entrance to the prison is located on the surface of the planet but the prison itself is located miles underground. A single city is located on the other side of the planet, completely cut off from the rest of the universe. Once in 10 years a single cargo ship comes in with custom-ordered supplies. Communication outside the planet is a luxury.


Prison Itself
On the surface of the planet, from miles around of rocky terrain, a single cement two-story building stands with a single 5 inch metal bolted door facing East. Upon entering the building is one giant room, a hanger or sorts with no windows but flickering neon lights. A large rectangular hold in the ground draws attention to a cart awaiting. Stationed on a single metal railway heading into a cramped tunnel. The cart travels on the single rail for thirty minutes, lights line the rocky ceiling in intervals of 10 feet from eachother.

Once the cart stops you see a small platform with a second metal door. Past the door is a large brightly lighted circular room. Lining the walls are monitors, speakers, mikes, and switches of all sorts. A large gaping hole is present int he middle of the room. A heavy-duty chain attached to a pulley on the ceiling connects to a machine. At the end of the chain, is a large metal cage meant to fit and hold a heavy-weight prisoner. The hold leads down to an abyss. Five stories below the suspended circular room is the first ring of prison cells circling the the walls of a well-like tunnel. Rings of prison cells continue on for another ten stories, ending on a rocky floor. Drains jut from the rocky walls, water drips dampening every surface. Chains hang from rails. Flickering lights illuminate broken cell doors and rusting metal rails and stairs connecting each floor of cells to the other. On the seventh floor of cells coming down are two heavily locked metal doors. Each leading to a single hallway which splits to lead to a small cafeteria and a washroom. Black and white tiles line both rooms with rusted appliances. Cameras attacked to every corner capture every angle of every room.

Medical treatment is not a hospitality given by the prison owners. Crooked docs and quacks will fix you up at a price. For any valuables you managed to sneak in or for some sort of service. Fights to the death are not unusual, a form of entertainment created in between the inmates.

Prisoners are not assigned a cell, you must find one and claim it as your own. You may be challenged, or you may challenge, by another for their cell. Cells fit one and 20 of them line each ring/floor of cells. Some cells have broken cell doors.



Curfew
Clocks of any sort are absent, sunlight is myth in Butcher Bay. Day and night are indistinguishable.
Cycle:
-2 hours to eat or bath.
-Prisoners have 10 hours of recreation in the main prison.
-2 hours to eat or bath.
-10 hours of lockdown.

Both doors leading away from cells are automatic but guards line the walls of the cafeteria. All computer programmed, the guns they hold are as well computer programmed to kill with a single bullet, once detached from the body as a whole it shuts down. Lockdown is initiated with a siren. If prisoner has 5 minutes to get into their cells before the hatches lock on all prison cell doors.

5 Hellhounds are released to hunt down and kill any stragglers and left roaming for 9 hours. Before they are lead back into their cages with meat. Hounds are 500 pounds of muscle and leather-hard skin. Teeth sharp enough to bite through metal, claws hard enough to slice through flesh and bone with a single swipe.

Birth Place: Katar

Crimes/Charges: Manslaughter (15 guards, 5 men) Political assassination (4 politicians, 3 high ranking officials)

Bounty Reward: 8,545,000

Weapons of Choice: anything with a sharp edge or tip

Bio/History: Kronus was born on the Outer Rim planet of Katar, a planet destroyed by the necromongers 13 years ago. He was raised in the city of Ganya, the capitol of the world, and he learned to defend himself easily among the thugs that roamed the streets of the city. He learned to strike from the shadows and disappear before the enemy knew what hit them, and he took advantage of his races natural ability to percieve the world and move quickly. At age 11, he was fighting in a similar minded gang, called the Strikers. He had a long dagger, which he used to deadly effect on the three humans that were surrounding him, evading their clumsy attacks before darting in with his own. He quickly developed a taste for the sharp edge of a blade, and to this day uses them to full effect. One year later, he was evacuated because of a necromonger attack on the planet. He grew to be a great assassin on his new planet, and used his abilities to kill several high ranking officials for pay. On his last job, a contract to kill 5 nemy gang members for another gang, Kronus was cornered on his exit by 15 city guards. He drew 2 of his many concealed blades and fought like an animal, using his agility to full effect before the remaining 5 took him down. He was sent to Butcher Bay by the planet government, several who only voted for the place for fear of being his next target.
