- Accessibility:
The Quartermaster's guild is accessible to the general public so long as they have a speeder to reach near the center of the planet's largest ocean. The natural defenses of storms and the sea can make the location generally inhospitable to access. Additionally the facility is heavily guarded employing a cadre of private security and light weapons emplacements around the facilities' surface. - Description:
The Structure of the Quartermaster's HQ appears to be a bold art Deco designed building made to withstand the harsh weather of Iskalon. The complex appears protruding from the sea itself on pillars like an oil rig with a singular twenty five story tall central structure towering above the eight to twelve story factory facilities that surround it. Security personnel can be seen walking across elevated walkways in weatherproof ponchos holding House Aquila Charric rifles and side-arms and equipped with standard body armour. Engineers and vehicles can be seen moving around the roads between each of the busy buildings, lit but intermittent beams from integrated lights and lamps which shine down from on high.
- Quartermasters R&D:
Standing within the center of the complex, the towering central building is the R&D Headquarters of the Aquilan Quartermaster's Guild of House Aquila, within its confines are research and engineering labs which constantly work to the development and innovation of new weapons, ships and methods to refine and improve the process of Dihydrogen Monoxide transportation for House Aquila as well as supervise its harvesting and recycling on Iskalon. - Factory & Processing:
Many of the factories that surround the R&D center are split between; factory lines which produce weapons, armour and prototypes for House Aquila & Processing plants which help to compress hydrogen oxygen to form either atmosphere altering forces in massive amount or compound H20 into variously dense plasmic or solid forms of hypermatter available for mass transport. - Harvesting Sector:
Beneath the underbelly of the complex hosts an ion reactor cooled by the temperature of the open ocean. The plant here purifies and cycles H20 into the processing areas for storage and transport. Additionally this station cycles and cleans massive amounts of water from the planets oceans, acting as an anti pollutant force on the world. - Guard Emplacements:
Along the walkways of the station there are several flat platforms which often house a small bunker capable of holding a couple people as well as two twin-linked light blaster cannon batteries with Phrik-B ballistic shielding. Across the facility there are approximately 16 such emplacements which rotating guards station between. - Parking:
The station houses two major landing pads on the ground level capable of housing heavy cruiser class craft for the purpose of loading them with the stations' goods. While the executive landing pad has a capacity to house approximately 10 fighter class craft or 5 larger transport ships. - Residential:
Under the surface of the building, under the water so that the planets natural insulation cancels the ambient noise, the individual rooms of workers are stationed. These apartment complexes have sea windows and sport communal kitchens and bathroom facilities, split between security, engineers, processing and guild workers and sections but are of fairly high quality. Food is couriered in weekly short of personal commission and people happily live their lives here, inviting family if requested. The residential district can house about 2160 people comfortably within their shared apartment dorms.
SECURITY:
High: The security forces stationed at the Guild HQ are comprised largely of ex military personnel which have been recruited by the Avery with few retired special ops officers poached to lead them in drills and other training. The soldiers are equipped with medium range charric weapons as well as standard body armour and charric side arms. there are 206 security personnel hired on to police and guard the station at any time. Most of the guard personnel travel in pairs as they roam around the facility keeping in communication via an array that
In addition to the contracted private security force, the facility operates 16 guard posts evenly distributed around the periphery as well as atop key structures around the facility. Each of these emplacements support two twin linked light blaster cannons with phrik-B ballistic shielding capable of shredding light craft or seriously damaging more heavily shielded craft with concentrated fire. As well as a phrik-B reinforced Durasteel bunker capable of housing ten men or women.
Aside from weaponized emplacements, much of the facility is Titanium reinforced short of the central structure of the HQ which uses Phrik-B. Many of the doors around the facility are equipped with mag-locks with the central structure and all entrances to the below docks being set up with blast doors. All R&D areas are covered with security cameras which are maintained by a security station in the center of the main building which also manages communications between security teams.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION:
The Aquilan Quartermasters Guild Headquarters was commissioned by Felix Aquila as an upgrade to the production facility that was already in place to mine the families' water for packing and transport. The multi billion credit refurbishment constructed the R&D divisions headquarters and expanded the station to be more than double its size. Giving it a second docking station for a large ship as well as the additional 10 stories upon the central structure. The result was the creation of facilities which would be able to constantly upgrade their technology, invent weapons, develop new starship templates and renovate existing House Aquila structures.
