Down Below

From The Great Machine

A location on Babylon 5, consisting of the unfinished areas of the station, typically in the Brown Sector. Typically inhabited by the poor and downtrodden, known as lurkers.

[edit] Overview

As Earth Alliance contractors ran out of money, the Down Below area was not fully utilized by businesses of a reputable nature. (see: Babylon Project)

When people searching for better lives came aboard Babylon 5 and were unable to find it, they would assemble in Down Below after running low (or completely out of) money. With no means of getting home, the denizens of Down Below became a cheap labor force for illegal business operations (dust trafficking, smuggling, et cetera).

This sector is mostly inhabited by humans, though also a percentage of inhabitants include non-human species (Drazi, Brakiri, and Pak'ma'ra).
