The Tretonin research facility is located on Phoenix planet in the Milky Way galaxy. It was originally created by the Goa'uld queen Taweret, who used it to experiment with bioengineering larval symbiotes. Later, it was found by the Phoenix Alliance, who used it for synthetic Tretonin research. (RPG: "Watershed")
History[]
Taweret founded the facility to experiment on larval Goa'uld to improve symbiotes and create a better soldier. She had hoped to bioengineer the next evolutionary advancement. She and Apophis hid the facility from the other System Lords.
Two years later, in August 2002, the facility had begun to degrade after months of no resupply shipments from Goa'uld ships. The pipe on the lowest level that pumped water from the river for the experiments burst. The facility worked at max capacity to pump the water back into the river. However, each day a floor would flood. The first day flooded the lowest floor which trapped Taweret while she rested in her sarcophagus. Taweret ended up drowning in her sarcophagus, which had failed due to the flooding. After a few days, the Jaffa's food stores also flooded. (RPG: "Watershed")
Seven days into the flooding, Phoenix-1 investigated for the cause of the river's water levels dropping. They dove into the river and located the entrance of the facility underground. After Bervell learned of the situation, he attempted to shut off the inflowing water.[3] (RPG: "Watershed")
Due to the events that happened on Pangar, Major Abraham Ross brought up that the facility could help provide an alternate supply of Tretonin for the Pangarans and the possibility of Taweret's unfinished research leading to a synthetic Tretonin. The Council of Haven voted on the fate of the facility and ended up deciding to keep it. The facility was developed and Taweret's research continued.[3] (RPG: "Watershed")
In 2003, when Phoenix planet was undergoing seismic activity, due to Ancient technology, Major Jared Bell informed the Phoenix Site Gate room that there were reports of a possible fault line opening up under the Tretonin research facility. (RPG: "In Ruins")
Areas[]
The facility has 9 floors in a diamond shaped layout of hallways with rooms along the inward side of the corridors and another room in the center of the floor.
While it was under Taweret's control, floor -1 held a lounge area in the center of the floor. Floor -2 had a circular control room in the center, and the lowest floor held Taweret's sarcophagus. (RPG: "Watershed")
