Welcome to Symphonia Labs!
A home for old knowledge, a place for new discovery
Themes of the Fossil Laboratory - Into the Past - Torvus Bog
Residing Professor: Arthur Symphonia, The Fossil Professor
Assistant: OPEN - LOOKING FOR AN ASSISTANT.
Location: Tyntill Town, Nearby Lake Luna
Research Specialization: Pokemon Fossils and Paleontology
Symphonia Labs, a far cry from the apartment it used to be, is located on the northern shore of Tynntill's Heights District 1 mile from Lake Luna's shore.
The grounds - their outside is well-embellished, plants and foliage decorating the walls and gardens in a way that makes the home-like structure feel natural, as if it belonged nestled in that niche near both the nature and the city. Behind the manor, there is ample woods which connect to the park of Lake Luna, which loom peacefully and protectively over the Laboratory - the grounds also include a Berry Garden, from which most of the food in the Laboratory is produced. Sometimes, the Professor's Pokemon, or maybe the Assistant's Pokemon, are playing or working in the garden or the grounds, tending to them and relaxing. Once the front door is reached, a simple electronic doorbell is reached, the echo from the chiming sound audible. The door opens smoothly, revealing the...
Entrance Hall. Either the Professor's assistant, one of their Pokemon, or Professor Symphonia will open the door, leading them into the entrance hall which doubles as a library. The room is large and extensive, and while a bit dark, filled with lines and lines of shelves and books, all of different sizes, ages, styles, and topics. These are all Arthur's great collection which he has hoarded over the years, and one can see where it is still growing, volumes being acquired every so often. The floor is well-detailed, elegant in design, while chairs and a small, study-like table. Sometimes, the floor is littered with leftover papers of frantic research, often the result of the Professor's studies. The visitor will then be asked to wait for the Professor in the entrance hall, or will be led deeper into the...
Research and Laboratory area. Many flora and fauna cover this area, some in test tubes and tanks, and others growing in pots nearby. Most of them seem alien and unusual, results of plants and growth that was revived from fossilized remnants. The tanks glow with a warm, energetic light, some filled with water and marine flora, others with ground and terrestrial forms. A main computer, complete with access terminal and chair, stands near the middle, from which most of the large machinery is controlled. Some tables with books, others with more research material, are nearer the walls. A skylight lets sunlight in, bathing the otherwise seemingly-dark room with warm sunlight.
Other rooms in the manor include the Professor's personal study, the Professor's, Assistant's, and a visitor's living quarters, kitchen, bathrooms, cellar, and a storage room (partially a gardening shed).

Lab Information and Details
- The Laboratory's main purpose is research and information-housing, being a home to much information and books, as well as technology for the purpose of researching Pokemon Paleontology.
- By extension, unlike some Pokemon Laboratory, there is not a large amount of Pokemon living in the laboratory - most, if not all, are owned by the Professor, the Assistant, or a visitor.
- The second function of Symphonia Labs is to serve as the living quarters and main command of Arthur Symphonia, Fossil Professor.
- As a center of operations, adventurers might find times where the Fossil Professor will need their help for some form of mission or quest (possible plots).
- Furthermore, weary travelers can stop by Symphonia Labs and, if space allows, receive food and shelter for a night or two.
- Most actions and RP'd events will be required to be RP'd in another thread, so as to prevent clutter

Laboratory Services and Operations
- Pokemon Fossil Resuscitation (in other words, grabbing a Fossil, i.e. a Dome Fossil, and reviving it through technological means into a Kabuto) can be performed in Symphonia Labs, as long as the request is RP'd out in a separate thread so the Professor can also profit. More services related to Resuscitation will be available as the Professor's funding increases.
- Symphonia Labs is willing to serve as a small rest stop for weary travelers. They will sleep in the guest room - the cost would be an RP in a separate thread. Only one person can rest in the Laboratory at a time, and any breaking of the rules (which Professor Symphonia reserves the right to change as necessary) will result in a immediate and near-permanent expulsion from the grounds.
- Symphonia Labs also provides a Breeding Service. One Breeding Slot is allotted per week, and it is on a first-come, first-serve basis. More information on Breeding can be found below.
