Darwin's Lair

Darwin's Lair, or the Deployable Architecture - Reloovian Design Issued Standard (the DARDIS) is a circular chamber beneath Darkstone Manor home to Reloovian researcher and student Darwin Archimedes.

History
Darwin's lair originates from his home planet of Reloo and remained active beneath Darkstone Manor for at least some lengthy period of time, unbeknownst to its owner, Moe Frankfort. The "deployable" section of its acronym suggests that it may have some degree of portability.

It was discovered in the present day by Andrew Wheatley and Elizabeth Glass, lost in the catacombs beneath Darkstone Manor, where they confronted Darwin about the exact nature of his presence under the mansion. It was completely wrecked after a battle with the Securobot guarding it, and Darwin went to live with Andrew instead.

Appearance
Darwin's lair has a vaguely Renaissance style and features several workbenches, control panels and pillars, as well as bookshelves set into the wall. Books and paper are strewn across the lair, and holographic screens line the walls. A large, metallic circle is embedded in the floor; beneath which is located the main defence system for the lair, a large and dangerous-looking robot. Pipes and cables are built into the ceiling and appear to be poorly-maintained.

After the Securobot was destroyed, it was reduced to a smoking ruin. Panels and concrete are strewn everywhere, and parts of the room appear to still be on fire.

Contents
As well as being the presumed home of Darwin Archimedes, the lair also houses Reloovian technology. Contained in the lair, amongst other things:
 * The Har-Doom
 * Memorb
 * The Securobot

Trivia

 * The official name of the lair, the DARDIS, is very obviously a homage to British sci-fi series Doctor Who.
 * According to Darwin's Twitter, the lair has very expensive Wi-Fi.
