-=====Conspiracy Theories===== 
- 
-The Zone is awash with wild theories about the real cause behind the initial explosion, the creation of the Exclusion Zone and what the Government scientists are really doing there. Here are a few of the more popular and enduring. 
- 
-====The Alloy Engine==== 
- 
-The original explosion was in fact a crash landing of some kind of alien vessel. The vessel contained a device known as the Alloy Engine, a form of automated factory that creates new materials out of whatever it can find around it. The Government has captured this engine, which may or may not be sentient but in its periodic attempts to escape some of the anomalous materials it creates have been released into the Zone, out of Government control. Those who believe the Alloy Engine is sentient also believe it is here purposefully and has clear goals in mind. 
- 
-====The Protean==== 
- 
-The vast majority of conspiracy theories concern what the Government are doing in the Zone and why it needs such a vast exclusion zone to conceal it. One of the most popular topics tends to be the creation of some form of super soldier. The Protean is supposedly the final product of an attempt to create a stealth soldier. Accounts vary as to whether the stealth ability was applied to the test subject or their suit first, but they all agree on the end result, a human being capable of shapeshifting. No-one is clear how it happened but the consensus is that the Protean is loose in the Zone, pursuing their own agenda. A great deal of Government resources are being expended on his recapture, but to no avail. As to the Protean's agenda, none can say.
