Mosaic Wellness Center was a rehabilitation center in Primm for supernatural beings, ranging from demons to humans with supernatural abilities.[1]

History[]

The Mosaic compound was built in the early 1900s by Ivo Shandor and his followers, who sought to eliminate what he considered a "cancer" in society: the supernatural. Shandor sealed the entrance of the building with a powerful spell that prevented any supernatural being from ever leaving.[2]

Shandor's followers would capture supernatural beings from the surrounding areas, dragging them across the desert of Primm and forcing them through the entrance of Mosaic. As Shandor himself was a vessel for black magic, he was unable to leave the building he had created and eventually perished within the compound.[2]

By 2004, Mosaic had became a rehabilitation clinic where supernatural beings could be cured of their demonic nature.[3] Spike, then an ensouled vampire, was tricked into admitting himself to the center by the parents of Ruby Monahan, one of his past victims. Upon arrival, he encountered a maximum-security prison from which inmates were unable to leave. The intake process involved implanting one of Mah Zinn's spawns inside each patient's brain through the ear, allowing Zinn to enforce control by inflicting intense pain or even death whenever he deemed it necessary.[1]
