Rank. Discipline. Labor.

Red Rock is an Armada prison station anchored in an iron-red asteroid field, where a world used to be. It holds those too troublesome to free and still able to work. A prison roleplay in Second Life.

The station

Built as a top-secret research base, hidden by the field's radiation and magnetic storms, then refitted as a high-security prison. It has no engines and no gate. Parts of it are still sealed. Its doors, alarms and power are run by the game, so the station itself takes part in the story.
