-The Machine is an unknown entity referred to only by the name "The Machine". It is apparently tied to [[Mörkö]], or may even ''be'' it.

-A note stating this information is found on a note located in a small foliage-covered cave hidden behind the Pine Fell Water Plant in [[tunnel2]].

-In [[Bunker]], there is a computer displaying encrypted text, which, when decoded, produces part of the text "Homeless People (made the) machine". However, this information contradicts the information in the note, which states that the machine was made by [[Andrew Herts]]. A possible explanation is that the machine was actually ''made of'' homeless people. This could coincide with the mushrooms/blue mushrooms (aka "ugu shrooms"), possibly mutating the said people and assimilating them into The Machine.
+The Machine (otherwise referred as to as the "Headless Raven" or "god of the underground") is a machine located somewhere in the [[city_gates|underground city]]. The nickname 'the Headless Raven" is given because the machine supposedly "spits out raven's heads."
-The text on the computer reads: "UGU is the underground world god. [[Mörkö|Masked man]] in the tunnel guards the knowledge. Raven Research Institute is the lead organization. Inventor is [[Andrew Herts]], homeless people made up The Machine."
+The Machine is the source of mystery regarding information on [[Stalburg Underground]].
+==Origin==
+Information regarding the machine is extremely limited. It's only mentioned twice and seen once in-game through difficult to access means.
-The note as it appears in-game:
+The Machine is referred to as a "underground god", and is said to have been created by [[Andrew Herts]], with the intent to "save the poor people" of Stalburg. Herts was helped by seven masked men, these men guarded the 'project', and sought the ingredients the machine ran on, sand, rocks, water, ornis (birds), and humans. Specifics of the note, as to who the masked men are, or the what is "a gift from the upper body" remains unknown.
-[[File:Themachinepure.jpg|400x400px]]
+The Machine is apparently the cause for something unnatural happening in Stalburg involving people being trapped underground.
+==References==

+The note directly addressing the existence of the machine is located in a small foliage-covered cave hidden behind the [[tunnel2|Pine Fell Water Plant]].

-The note reads:
+("ornis" means "bird").
-Andrew Herts made the machine<br />
+*In the S.N.W. [[bunker]], there is a computer displaying encrypted text, which, when decoded, produces part of the text "Homeless People (made the) machine". However, this information contradicts the information in the note, which states that the machine was made by [[Andrew Herts]]. A possible explanation is that the machine was actually ''made of'' homeless people.

-Herts made the machine because<br />
-he claims to "save the poor people".<br />
-The machine is called the Headless<br />

-upper (bed?)<br />
+*In the [[wasteland]], the hidden cellar provides some information about the machine in relation to the "black world".
+*The machine can be physically seen in the "Underground Justice" ending, in which Mark is captured by Stalburg Underground, brought into the underground city, and sentenced to be executed via the machine. The machine's opening is large enough for a man to fit, and kills via decapitation. This suggests the machine's interior may be similar to a guillotine.
-'''Feel free to investigate!'''
+Additionally, there is a etching of what looks to be a headless bird above the machine.
+===Open Sewer===
+*Several mentions of "the underground god" are present throughout Open Sewer.
+==Trivia==
+*The Machine's entity name in city_gates is "machine_relay".
