Soulforge Cathedral was the primary base and center of innovation of the Mechanists. It was here that Karras planned to execute his plan to release the rust gas from his Masked Servants while being protected from the outside with airtight doors while all other organic life was extinguished by the deadly gas.

The final fight between Viktoria and Combat Bots
Garrett and Viktoria infiltrated Soulforge in an attempt to stop Karras from releasing the rust gas into The City. Viktoria drew too much attention to herself in desperation and was forced to sacrifice herself to the plan, and Garrett was eventually successful in penetrating the stronghold and activating the beacon, which drew the masked servants back to Soulforge, and the rust gas was released inside the cathedral instead.[1]
Security[]
The cathedral was filled with all manner of Mechanist machines and security devices and was populated entirely by the Builder's Children, namely Combat Bots, Worker Bots, and Spider Bots, except for a few bloodstained Masked Guards who were ordinary Mechanist Mace Guards that were possibly a bit too slow to follow Karras' orders.
Trivia[]
- It is rumoured that by Thief: Deadly Shadows, Soulforge was still standing, but as a decaying ruin.[2]
