Eshu- Yoruba Mythology
The Trickster god of the Yoruba People of modern day Nigeria. As the god of communication, chaos and ambiguity he will often cause mischief and strife in the hopes of maturing his victims.

Crimson Corp is a company built on being on the cutting edge of innovation. For many solar cycles we have done our experiments in our own home universe. With the periodic release of new Schemadyne tech we've made substantial upgrades to our existing R&D labs and now we believe that our consumers should share in the use of our equipment. Crimson Corp is proud to present, Metis Station, our signature testing facility!

Metis Station has been in the works for over a Solar Cycle and has been through countless refits and upgrades. So much so that body work was completed ages ago and all the work up till now has been refitting the station to conform with Schemadyne's newer tech. First and foremost is that this station is designed to test and develop new technology, not to use as a base of operations. But that doesn't mean that its not without its own self-sufficiency systems.

Metis Station features 3 Floors. The bottom is a public lounge and gathering room. It features 2 large landing pads for smaller ships as well as 2 Main USD docks for larger ones. The middle and top floor are for authorized Personnel only. The Middle Floor is the main production floor and features factories, Storage Chests, Shipyard Controls, as well as a block Show room. The Top floor is the Logic R&D site were you can build and test logic devices.

Since the nature of testing requires you to constantly move in and out of the station, We've provided a Special Admin Call Back Point. If you have Admin powers then you can instantly teleport (Tab+F8) into this conveniently placed ship to get into the station without any trouble. This Point also comes installed with a powerful scanning system in the event you need to scan the surrounding sectors for trouble.

She features 2 Shipyards for the construction of small to medium ships. A modest factory system has been set up to support the building of components. When ships are finished they can be pushed out of dock using our special undocker beams built into each dock. If you so wish we've also set up a Auto Docking Net that will catch ships that were pushed.

For the development of turrets we've installed 2 turret testing platforms. These platforms are linked into the stations power reserves and can supply any turret with as much power and mass enhancement as needed. They also can be extended and retracted to fit nearly any sized turret.

If you wish to test the Anti-Missile capabilities of a turret or your ship then we've also provided two of our newest Utilitycraft, the Eshu. The Eshu has two types of damage-less Dummy Missiles it can fire. Two fast dumb fire missiles for normal missile strikes and a heat seeker swarm for testing against multiple threats.

For those interested in experimenting with logic then we've set up a large Logic R&D site on the top floor. Here you can test various logic contraptions with the help of our various pre-built circuits. There is also a second Admin Call back point here for instant teleportation.

In the event of an attack Metis Station can enter Lock Down Mode. This will restrict docking on all but a few ports and retract both turret testing platforms. All rotating objects will stop in preparation for battle. 12 Artemis Turrets can hammer enemies with a barrage of missiles. For extreme cases you can use the Heat Seeker Swarm system to destroy anything and we mean anything that comes your way.
