The Dummy Plug Plant, or Deep Underground Facility: Central Area, is a room deep within the bowels of Central Dogma that is used to house the soulless Rei vessels that are said to be the cores of the Dummy System.

The arrangement of the brain, the spinal column, and the tube of LCL in this room is a primitive version of the Evangelion's Entry Plug system.

A sound of deep breathing and a heartbeat can be heard in this room whenever Rei Ayanami is present in the central tube of LCL. These sounds are never heard when Rei is not present in the tube of LCL. The sound of the heartbeat and deep breathing may be Lilith's.,the brain in the metallic-casing may also be Lilith's, as tubes lead from the back of Lilith's head in Terminal Dogma. The brain-casing has a representation of a vagina between the brain hemispheres.

During episode 23 Ritsuko destroys the soulless Rei Ayanami vessels by releasing their destrado, this causes the vessels to disintergrate.

Reproduced image of the glyph in the D.P.P.

The outer section of the glyph on the floor of the Dummy Plug Plant is from MSS. 2731, part of the Sloane collection of the British Library. To book the microfilm for viewing go here.

MSS. 2731 contains 4 books, 3 of which give instructions for the conjuration of spirits. The relevant glyph in the Dummy Plug Plant is used as magic circle in the first book, titled Ars Theurgia Goetia, in which the magician stands within in order to be preserved from the spirit's influence.

Within the ring are written Divine Names in Romanised Hebrew that are split into nine sections. Each of the nine sections contains Names commonly allotted onto the relevant Numbers of the Qabalistic Tree of Life. The centre of the circle forms Kingdom, also with appropriate Names (this is not visible due to the polar graph). MSS. 2731 differs in that the planetary signs are written around the outside and inside of the circle, as can be seen in the image to the right.

Without the ring are four pentagrams inscribed with the name of God, at the centre of each is a tau cross. Within each the pentagrams is to be placed a candle, so that the edge of the circle is always visible to the magician.

The polar-graph within the centre of the glyph has been identified as belonging to a modern system of Vedic astrology.

The very centre of the glyph has what may be a 2D representation of a trunicated pyramid or a hypercube, but it is also similar to the twelve square division of the astrological Houses that was popular during the renaissance practice of astrology.

The illuminated orange floor is in the form of a large square with an illuminated green circle, comprised of the letters ascribed to the four proteins that make up DNA, around it. The square and circle arranged in this manner are a common emblem of earth and heaven, or body and mind, united.
