===4th Layer: Worker’s Ward===
The Worker’s Ward is bustling with activity every day, everyone trading all sorts of goods with each other, goblin alchemists and periodic elementalists producing all sorts of hazardous pollution. Gnome industrialists lead the construction of new buildings and production lines. The streets are filled to the brim with humans – this is the only place where you are truly likely to find that many. They mostly remain with the dull jobs, never getting very far or very high in life. The wizards also work in the Worker’s Ward, conjuring food by the ton and water by the gallons. Trolls also make their living here, as manual labor. Thievery is rampant on this level, with pickpockets working the huge crowds of humans, though they have little worth stealing.

Locations within Überstadt

5th Layer: Pseudo-Crypts

The Pseudo-Crypts are the beginning of the lower sections. This area is filled to the brim with mindless undead, pounding away at machinery and generating energy for all of Überstadt. They are constantly being maintained by the gnolls, who hungrily feed off the undead who has reached their final stage of decay and are now completely useless. It is the job of the gnolls to usher in the dead that have and put them to work at the millions of pistons and pumps, to keeping Überstadt running. Worryingly, a group has recently been attempting to sabotage these machines, claiming that Überstadt has no right to force the unliving into slavery. They are rumoured to be led by a prominent 2nd Tier Liche, though as of yet, their movement is not well known or taken seriously.

6th Layer: Sewers & Slums

The home of the halflings. This area is pretty much a no-go zone, even for the Clock itself. Halflings are a race of psychopathic cannibals with a bizarre fetish for sophistication. They love being sophisticated and will do anything to be more sophisticated. It has been known for halflings to fight to the death over a simple top hat or a cane. The Sewers & Slums constantly filter out all sorts of filth that drains out into the Cesspool of the 7th Layer. All the filth from the other Layers goes to the Sewers & Slums. Through these tunnels and these shafts, the halflings have access to every Layer from the 1st to the 7th and it is never known exactly when they will strike.

7th Layer: The Pits

The Pits. The home to the crazed albino elves, obsessed with ancient technology that they do not truly comprehend. They are few in number due to their constant harassment by the halflings but some say that it is they who are keeping Überstadt standing. Others say that they will bring about the fall of Überstadt with the tinkering and their meddling. No one truly knows from sure. The Cesspool is a well-known location in the Pits, rumored to be a bottomless pool of filth that is home to a leviathan known as the Serpent, so huge that it is of a size that cannot be measured. Rumors say that the machinery is what keeps this at bay. But yet again – no one really knows.
