On the second sub-basement level is the X-Men's famous Danger Room, an
impressively lethal training facility, a technological masterpiece and unique
battle simulator.
Also on this level are emergency living quarters (complete with
independant food storage), Cerebro's main banks, the X-Men's crime files and back up
computers, the War Room, mission planning areas, a small library and reading room,
and a Shi'ar power tap and transducing room. Also there is an access point to the
Morlock Tunnels on this level.
The Morlock Tunnels
Though the tunnels are occupied by the often-times hostile group of
mutants known as the Morlocks, this underground labyrinth remains the weakest area of
defense. Little is known regarding the original construction of the tunnels, which
predates Morlock occupation. Because of the highly unstable and progressively
deteriorating nature of these pathways, (further complicated by the presence of
subterranian rivers with extremely dangerous currents) much of the tunnels remain
uncharted-- while that which is known to us is constantly monitored by computer
surveillance, with defensive stun beams installed at crucial junctures to prevent
attack from this quarter. The tunnels do stretch as far as to New York itself.

NOTE: Admittance to the tunnels is strictly prohibited except in the event of a
full-scale assault on the mansion. If all other alternative routes have been cut off,
the tunnels may become an egress of last resort. Subterranian evacuation drills are
held in the Danger Room holo-grid once a month. The entrance that is within the
mansion is kept securely locked and monitored, as it is a potential weak link to the
mansion, should the area be compromised. The link has not been severed because,
ironically, it could also be an excellent emergency escape route should the need
arise.
