The Jedi Camp and it's Residents

[Serena Laran]

We've done a little RPing in a year and we have gathered a few NPC scientists or Jedi, as well as some location descriptions. As far as a building, it's probably prefab or a reinforced high tech tent (the medical pavillion is one of those). If you've invented an NPC or seen one used, post it here so we can have a reference list.

People

Arlan Solborne - Botanist and professional pain in the arse [here (http://sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?23303-Growing-Pains-9-367)], [here (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?23348-Wild-Creatures-10-015&p=401898&viewfull=1#post401898)] and [here (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?23362-Making-a-Connection&p=402033&viewfull=1#post402033)] {picture (http://mimg.ugo.com/201108/2/3/9/204932/cuts/doc-cottle_480_poster.jpg)}

Medical Pavillion [here (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?23359-A-Cage-of-Silver-and-of-Sky&p=401964&viewfull=1#post401964)]

<strike>The medical facilities on Ossus were better than they had had in the Wheel convoy, if only because everything and everyone was in one place, instead of scattered throughout several different ships. They didn't have proper walls yet, but a large pavilion that had been sprayed with an insulating plastic. It was strong enough to lean against, kept out the bugs and wind, but it wasn't precisely sterile or permanent. A prefab medical building is under construction, but for now the pavilion would do. Inside there were sterile operating rooms created with inflatable plastic rooms and various venting systems, clumped in the middle of the tent like glowing cubes. Blessedly they were, at the moment, unoccupied. Examination rooms were separated from each other by curtains, strung on criss-crossing wires set at about seven feet off the ground. And the ground, of course, had been sealed off completely with a quick drying and self-leveling compound. It was thick but clear, leaving the illusion that one was floating above native grasses and the occasional wildflower.</strike> With the completion and opening of the new Medical
Building/Hospit this will have been taken down or repurposed

Dormitories
Two prefab buildings, two stories tall, with dorm rooms. Older padawans/Jedi have their own rooms, younglings and young padawans are housed two to a room. The doors are swooshy. The second dorm building mostly houses the construction crew members, stacked in four to a room. Refreshers are shared.

Miwù Shanmà
Located about four kilometers from the Jedi Camp up some hardscrabble mountain foothills. It is the settlement founded by Tell Cho to consolidate the Gossam diaspora. In similar state of construction to the Jedi camp, but with more excavation into mountainsides for accommodation. Mentioned here (http://sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?55395-With-Friends-Like-These) and here (http://sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?55363-A-Place-to-Lay-Our-Heads).

Anbira's hermitage
It consists of two acres of farmed plot that's nestled by a ridge to one side and by a small stream to the other side. On the far side from the Jedi Camp there are a stand of trees. One of which is older and sets apart from the other trees. This is where Anbira has set his equipment chest, and where he sleeps. Mentioned here (http://sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?55365-Aquila-Furtiva-%28Loki%29) and here (http://sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?55340-Agricola-est-in-Silva).

Zem's tent
fairly large tent divided into two rooms. One holds a table for receiving guests and discussing matters of the camp. The other is a smaller partition that serves as a sleeping and eating quarters. Mentioned here (http://sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?55365-Aquila-Furtiva-%28Loki%29).

Cizeri quarter
A plot of land adjacent to the Jedi camp in which a Cizerack C-9979 landing barge (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/C-9979_landing_craft) and other shuttlecraft have deployed from the galleon Haifa'Iro'Iro and set up a cordon. There is a lot of vehicle traffic and construction here, as numerous prefabricated quarters and other buildings are being constructed. Five hundred Cizeri Jaanni'saari are stationed within the cordon to act as a labor force to aid in construction and humanitarian projects. Mentioned here (http://sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?55395-With-Friends-Like-These).

Bumping this for eyeballs.

We've got the ancient library just to the side in the jungle being excavated/explored/catalogued, and prefab dorms built for living quarters. Additionally there is a permanent medical facility being built but it is very much under construction at the moment (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?55384-Some-Who-Wander-are-Lost).

More locations that I've written or been involved with. I'm not sure where any of this orients relative to other things but I suppose we can figure that out here.

One thing that would help me is to get a visual on the sort of landscape we're inhabiting. Wookieepedia doesn't go into a lot of detail, but it describes a lush world that was blasted into an irradiated ball of rock by the Cron Supernova some four thousand years ago, and that is only now returning to its former glory. The primary terrains listed are hills, mountains, gorges, forests, and caves.

Are these temperate forests? Steamy jungles? Arid but hardy woodlands? Is the soil rich and loamy, or tough and claylike, or dry and sandy? Is the rock grayish, brownish, or reddish?

When I put deserts, mountains, and forests together in my head, what I end up with is something like Zion National Park in Utah:

2675
2676

Is that at all on the right track, or are we looking at something more like the Pacific Northwest?


EDIT: A more temperate but no less dramatic possibility would be Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in southeast China:

2677

[Droo]

Those first two pictures are spot on for my money. Except, in my head, probably a bit less continuously green and more patchy. I've always described the soil as tough and claylike. Although I expect the soil perhaps richer closer to water where there's greenery.

[Anbira Hicchoru]

I'd envisioned it being more verdant than Zion but I am completely happy with it looking like that, actually.

[Droo]

I'd always had in mind that there'd be a small abandoned Imperial research facility not far from the library, abandoned when the treaty was signed and Ossus fell into Alliance territory. Naturally any confidential records were destroyed, but it would be nice to have a place like that already established to be retrofitted with newer tech.

I had mentioned before that the Inquisition had a research facility on Ossus to study the Force Sensitive population. Perhaps that could be used?

[Droo]

That would explain why I was thinking of it! Cheers!

[Draiya Naaianeya]

Also in a very important bit of plotting, I have established that the prefabricated dorms have doors that whoosh, not swingy doors.

This has been an important announcement.

[T'yeellaa Meorrrei]

More NPC folk:

Major Untaaura Verratoa: Mistress of the Jaanni'saari battalion. In charge of the Cizerack humanitarian mission. Fairly short, but muscular. Blonde hair kept cropped into an immaculate flat-top. Spotted complexion. Right ear is bobbed an inch short, and has some scarring down the side of her face from getting injured when crushing a pirate base. Speaks curtly and directly in an extremely blunt manner. Has little patience for forrda foolishness, but even less patience for her own troops misbehaving or acting out of order.

Draft map. Scattered between the Whaladon and the settlement proper are the remnants of the Jedi tent camp. The buildings and roads in grey are under construction.

The Jedi dorms and at least one of the civilian apartment buildings are composed of Compact, Low-Cost, Living Quarters, generally referred to as "cells". The 4m x 4m x 3m standard-size modules can be deployed individually or can be connected to each other. The CLL is configured to provided sleeping, cooking, and bathing facilities for a single human-sized individual. Large-sized CLL modules are 50% larger and are configured for larger species. All CLL modules feature powered pocket door that go "whoosh".
Each CLL includes integrated water, HVAC, and power systems that are fully functional once attached to an outside source. With a proper foundation, the CLLs can be stacked up to 5 levels high. The water, HVAC, and power systems in large groups can be regulated with utility modules. While exterior finishing attachments are available to give the finished building a more pleasing appearance, these are rarely used and the CLL structures are generally an eyesore.

[Serena Laran]

It's lovely, Sam. :)

[Taataani Meorrrei]

I'm in awe over the amount of work you've put into this Sam :) It's so amazing.

[Tevit Ramastan]

That looks awesome! I'm not sure where Tevit's ship is parked, but he's living out if it sort of like a trailer, so it'd likely be somewhere near the other living quarters.

Meanwhile, Hal has his own perma-tent somewhere in the woods, sort of near the library, but far enough away from it as not to be noticed. I don't think the placement of his tent on the map is entirely necessary, though, as he'll be coming back to the main camp soon enough.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

That map is absolutely superb!

[Serena Laran]

We should name the Cantina and give it an NPC proprietor.

We are also looking into including a natural amphitheater near the camp where we can hold large meetings and ceremonies.

[Sam]

If we're permanently grounded, I think I might have Captain Hekimi resign his post and open up either a restaurant, cantina/theatre, or a general store in town.

A very rough topographic map of the larger region surrounding the Gossam and Jedi camps, which are shown as a group of three dots with the library in the lower right. The dot to the north is the abandoned Imperial facility. Each color represents another 500 m in elevation.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

We should mark the sentient tree Jedi on the map, but I dunno where he's supposed to be. Near the library?

[Kazahan]

Ood Bnar is in the Library, actually. I don't remember if he was supposed to be far inside, but he's inside.

[Rognan Dar]

Something that I had mentioned to some was maybe making a kind of battle dome for TK practice. It could also be arranged to do other things such as lightsaber battles or whatever. If given the proper construction it could be quite versitile. Otherwise having a make shift thing will just be for TK only. Don't know where it could be put but I would guess that it would go somewhere with the other training/sparring area.

[Serena Laran]

I just realized the training rings for lightsaber practice aren't on the map. I imagine they'd be in that open space near the Whaladon on the left, but that's just my initial thought.

i love the idea of TK thunderdome :D

[Kale]

Ha, I got a mental image of the dojo from Kung Fu Panda (http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110804175428/kungfupanda/images/0/0a/TrainingHall2.jpg). I figure any building in the colony at this point is going to be multi-purpose. There could be obstacles that can be rolled out for TK trials or cleared out for indoor lightsaber sparring.

[Rognan Dar]

I love that picture. That was kind of what I was thinking it could be, multipurpose with interchangeable barriers or what have you. Though I was thinking it might be nice to have like a smaller more personal battle dome (for training or a one on one match up) and to have a larger almost stadium size arena for like group battles which could also be changed out for something like a paintball battle but with non-lethal lasers. Plus that would mean that more people could watch and have seating or something and it would just be fun. However, I dont know how the Jedi would appreciate such competitive activities.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Can probably strike out Zem's tent, since he has a house now. I'm not entirely sure on where it is though. Charley might have a better idea of where it's located.

[Halajiin Rabeak]

Hal's perma-tent is likely far enough out of the way and secluded that it's just sitting there with the door locked, still. I don't see a reason why it would have been taken down or moved, as he intentionally set it up well away from the camp/build site initially.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

The angry librarians descended on it and took all those stolen books back. ;)

[Droo]

You don't fuck with librarians!

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Med tent is down or repurposed, and the Med center is up and running now, of course.

Serena has her own house with a garden, not sure where in relation to everything else yet.

[Halajiin Rabeak]

You don't fuck with librarians!

I know, but not for lack of trying!

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Sam come back you need to update the map!
