General Information

The black tower has a total of twenty-one levels, divided into three sections. It stands atop the "mushroom cap" of Starbase 118, and handles Intelligence for this sector. The tower itself is built as one large cylindrical structure, with two small towers joined to each side. As its name implies the black tower is completely black, due to the special treatment of the outer surface to disrupt sensors and transporter beams. All windows on the tower are specially camouflaged both from visual and sensor inspection, so the entire structure appears as one dark mass.

Sections

Each level is subdivided into seven sections, labeled in the standard alphabet. Each section is subdivided into fourteen sub-sections. When referring to a section the full designation would resemble something such as this: Alpha-5, G-12, referring to Section Alpha, Level 5, Section G, Sub-section 12. (Also can be shortened to A-5, G-12.

Section Alpha

The top section is designated Alpha, and handles all aspect of Administration (officially), and serves as a Habitat level also. The Director has two offices within the building, the primary and secondary. All command personnel have assigned offices in this section, within the central portion of level three. There are quarters available for visiting and recuperating agents. All permanently stationed agents have quarters within level six and seven. Level four and five comprise labs and medical facilities disassociated from the 'Base's facilities.

Section Beta

The center section is designated beta, and constitutes the storage facilities to the fleet of venture class shuttles which are assigned to Intel (among others). The middle two levels (between the upper bay, which takes up levels one and two, and the lower bay which takes up five, six and seven) is the section for general access, meaning that it gets visitors from captains, admirals, and other high ranking personnel frequently. Level three has the main turbolift entrance to the Black Tower. The turbolift access to the Black Tower is situated in such a way that it does not run along the tower (for security reasons) but only intersects the tower at the point of entrance. There is only one turbolift entrance to the tower (not to say that's the only entrance, but the only official one).

Section Gamma

The bottom section, Gamma, is another secured section of the tower, comprising the sensitive and 'paperwork' (as many love to refer to it) areas. Levels one and two are filled with research facilities, but the knowledge of what goes on in them is not general access like it would be on a starship. Only personnel, which are cleared for that individual area, are admitted and only for certain sections of the deck. This area of the tower has more "formal" barriers between the level sections and clearance in that area is limited to particular sections OF the levels. Levels five through seven are off-limits except by special clearance from the Director only.

Notes:

All tower systems are completely independent of the Starbase, though have direct ties to Starbase systems. Record of the tower's activities are completely classified to all Starfleet personnel, and even the standard 'Base databanks list the tower as "auxiliary storage space." Even Captain Avatar does not have free reign of Black Tower's facilities.
