Points of Interest:
-Entry Hall
Carved into the granite of the mountain this ornate subterranean domed chamber is quite large. Typically used as a rally point or an informal meeting place there are seats and tables lining the circular walls as well as some benches.
- Living Quarters (Knights & Above)
Fairly average in size these quarters contain a bed, living area, and small kitchenette. These rooms are able to be modified to an extent, the interior decoration is up to the occupant.
- Disciple Quarters
Smaller than the Knights’ quarters, these rooms are extremely utilitarian in nature featuring a single bed, a small desk, and a miniature refresher.
- Sanctuary - A large high ceiling punctuates this room. Around its exterior in small wells are located the remains of important Ren in the history of the Order. This is a place of solitude most of the time, however in some cases will be used for addresses or lessons.
- Conference Chamber - The Conference Chamber is a medium sized circular room, its domed ceiling punctuated by artificial skylights. In the room is a circular table which surrounds a dais in the center in which rests a holo-projector in instances long range communications are required.
- Inner Sanctum - This is a chamber reserved typically for Masters of Ren. It is a large room containing an elevated walkway which spans a large pit deep into the earth below. Along the chamber’s walls are holoprojectors used for projecting astral maps and holographic data for viewing. In addition this chamber is used for conferencing with the Supreme Leader via Holo-projection.
- Medical Facility - A state of the art medical bay is included inside of the Bastion of Ren. Manned primarily by droids it contains several standard clinic rooms as well as an advanced surgical bay for treating the most grievous of injuries.
- Meditation Chambers - Located throughout the Bastion are small clusters of private and group meditation chambers, typically lit by candles but alternatively are build with a thin track of adjustable colored lighting around the exterior of the room which casts light of any color across the domed ceiling for maximum productivity.
- Pool Chambers - Both social and recuperative in nature, these pools are used for relaxation and ritual cleansing. Heated geothermally from the ground up there hangs the slightest of sulphuric aromas. These pools range in temperature from warm or hot on one end of the room to cold on the other.
- Armory - While throughout the Bastion of Ren there are smaller weapons caches for times of emergency, in the deepest parts of the Bastion away from prying eyes and protected by several layers of security including a full time post, the Armory is undoubtedly unique. Containing all manner of weapons ranging from standard durasteel swords to highly complex blaster and slug weaponry, the Armory contains weapons from a wide range of locations across the galaxy for use by the Ren. Typically access to this armory is only granted to those of Knight status and above.
- Library/Archives - Contained in the archives are massive amounts of knowledge and data acquired from across the galaxy. Primarily in electronic format these texts are available for the occupants of the Bastion to read and study at will. Despite its wide range of material it is somewhat restrictive when it comes to what teachings are available to Disciples. Some texts are restricted to Knights of Ren and even further still Masters. This list of restrictions is reviewed by the Archmaster so as to better limit the corruption of alternative trains of thought that might be stumbled across by inquisitive Disciples.
Dungeons - A dungeon in the deepest parts of the facility, reinforced specifically to contain force users such as Jedi or Sith, and in cases where internal members are the offenders, Ren. The dungeon levels held deep within the Bastion, below the mountain are completely encased in a barrier field, independent of other base shielding. Around the exterior of the entire dungeon section of the Bastion, Olbio trees have ben transplanted into miniature habitat modules for Ysalamiri. When attempting to access the Dungeon levels, a small golden access point forms in the barrier field, admitting only authroized personnel (Usually Knight level and above) into the section. A path between two rows of Olbio trees leads to a control room which contains anti-force user weapons and retention equipment as well as a control bank of security controls which grant access to the individual Cells.
- Hydroponics Lab & Facility - For growing various plants, primarily toxins and poisonous plants but also plants with medicinal properties for the synthesis of natural medicines as well as conventional medicines. This lab is also used to produce a limited supply of hydroponically grown crops in the case that the Bastion is subjected to a siege.
- Vivarium - A Lab for raising rare and poisonous creatures or creatures with inherent abilities that could be useful to the Knights of Ren. This lab contains modular habitat chambers ranging from small to large, the largest of these able to contain creatures as large as a Rancor. These habitat modules are reinforced similarly to the dungeons below with both ray and particle shielding in addition to being magnetically sealed for the safety of both the creatures and the Ren. This lab is equipped with standard dissection and research equipment for use in studying creatures.
- Subterranean Hangar - Large enough to fit four squadrons of standard TIE/sf Fighters and two squadrons of shuttlecraft. This hangar is near the base of the mountain concealed by both holoprojection matrixes and natural brush. This hangar on top of its standard shields maintains a set of heavy blast doors which protect against most standard weaponry.
Description: The Bastion of Ren. Literally a mountain fortress, the Bastion is the ‘home base’ of the Order of Ren. As such the facility was created to be defensible and almost entirely self sufficient. Designed as both a symbol and a functional fortress there is much symbolism in the construction and design of the facility itself. Developed to be on par with its civilian and military counterparts the fortress is designed with security and functionality in mind but maintains its distinct aesthetic by blending design with functionality. The Bastion itself is easily concealable to the eye by using a complex network of holo-projectors to deceive human eyes and aside from the minimal energy output has been designed to mask its high energy signature output using both the natural geography as well as insulating materials to prevent undue erratic energy signals. In addition to being the main hub of the Order of Ren, it is also used as a training facility for those initiates who are of age to be deemed Disciples of Ren.
History: The Bastion of Ren wasn’t always occupied by the Order. Faint traces left by its previous occupants left little to be known about its original construction or those who may have originated its construction. Over the last few years after selection by the Supreme Leader as a fortress for the Order of Ren, it has been updated and expanded upon to meet the needs of the Order of Ren. Both in part due to its difficult terrain and dangerous wildlife, it was decided that this should be one of the focal points of the Ren and many of their rites of passage take place inside and outside of the Bastion’s walls.
Intent: To create a multi-purpose fortress for the Knights of Ren and to create a location for future Roleplay tied into the initiation and joining rites of the Order.
