The base, while not the largest redstone base, had a lot of redstone contraptions such as automated farms, sorters, and lights that would tell the players how full the chests were.
In the underground areas, the mines were decorated with large lava pillars surrounded by gold and the sea parts of base had large glass domes and entrances. On the streets of Aureus, there were several custom and unique homes built by each player. The base also had a lot of decorative helixes around the base. The streets were lined with gold from the massive amounts of gold produce from the gold farm. The base had beautifully decorated streets that led to several parts of the city. Tachrev and CainesLaw allowed their residents to build their own houses which were all built to the player's desire. This allowed for the members to create large amounts of golden apples before the crafting recipe was removed in the 1.9 update. The gold farm was built by CainesLaw, and produced tons of gold. Them and their new base members had planned for the city to be the greatest city in 2b2t history. They eventually began to slowly invite other players to the base, many being their former Valkyrian comrades. After the Incursion, the two needed a home and so Aureus City was founded.
When Asgard II was griefed, CainesLaw and Tachrev joined the rest of the Valkyrians in the Third Incursion. This left the two homeless until they joined the Valkyrians at Asgard II. Sometime during early 2015, CainesLaw and Tachrev's base, Exodus, was griefed.
