In the middle of the south pacific ocean lies The Watchtower. The Watchtower, a name taken from old comics, is to this date the second most advanced piece of technology in humanity's arsenal. A truely titanic station, the central building shines a metallic grey and is rounded and smooth on the top, as if someone had pressed a sphere.
Ten large circular landing pads branch off of the central building, below each of which are three rectangular attatchments that spin at a blurring pace, blue lights giving the feel of small tornados.
These attatchments are responsible for keeping The Watchtower hovering above sea level, a development gained from a Kaiju that was capable of doing the same (the physicists managed to get their hands on it just before the RIEP crew came).
The Watchtower houses enough facilities for one to live there comfortably. There is a mess hall for employees, comfortable dorms, leisure facilities, weapons rooms, training rooms and enough other distractions that one could be raised here and still not know everything about it.
Now you may be wondering what the purpose of The Watchtower is, or how this is the second most advanced thing humanity has achieved. The answer to both?
You.
The Watchtower was made initially for the purpose of housing Walker Pilots, but with the introduction of the RIEP has experienced some major overhaul in order to accomodate more organic tastes. Due to The Watchtower's close proximity to the Rift, both Walker pilots and Shifters are able to catch Kaiju before they reach the walls. Usually.

Currently you are in the Mess Hall for your assigned lunch. Some of you have been here for weeks already, and others transferred in just hours ago and have only now escaped the clutches of the generals and scientists that swarm the building in order to be introduced to the rest of the Shifters, who you will work with until you die in the name of humanity.
