Multicolored Defense Strobe Array
The refinery's defense system combines multicolored strobes (amber, crimson, electric blue) with a synchronized audio pulse to create sensory overload for intruders. This combined defense measures erupts as jagged bursts that blanket tunnel entrances, designed to blind and incapacitate while also disorienting victims. Sarah stumbles through industrial corridors only to be met with this violent containment measure when forcing contact with the reinforced door. The system's immediate and brutal effects strip away escape opportunities and communication.
