- Shipyards Name:
- Raptor Base [Official Name]
- O'reen Shipyards [Alternative Name]
- Shipyard Model : FD-01 "Raptor" Class Orbital Shipyard
- Classification: Orbital Shipyards
- Location: O'reen
- Affiliation:
- Population: Moderately Staffed
- Accessibility: Raptor Base can be easily found located in orbit of O'reen, however access to the Shipyard is highly restricted due to it's importance to the Final Dawn's War Effort with certain areas of Raptor Base sealed off and only accessible to those with proper authorization and clerance. Those who come across Raptor Base will find it protected by an extensive network of Golan Fighter Platforms and Golan Star Fortresses all of which are part of a larger network for the defense of O'reen from orbit.
- Description: Raptor Base is a massive shipyard located in orbit of the heavily fortified world of O'reen capable of constructing up to 30 Capital Class Ships (Star Destroyers & Battlecruisers) using dry-dock frames, with varying build times based on tonnage and size. In addition Raptor Base is capable of construct up to 150 smaller vessels (Corvettes, Frigates and Cruisers) using it's internal production facilities, again with build times depending on size and tonnage. Following the examples of the Exegol and Ossertion Shipyards, Raptor Base is highly automated and as such has a smaller staff population and can produce ships at a faster rate.
- Production: Any Starship from Starfighters to Super Star Destroyers
- Specialty: Battlecarriers. Raptor Base largely specializes in the development and construction of massive Battlecruiser-sized Warships for the Final Dawn that have a heavy focus on Offensive Firepower, Hangar Space and Durability having produced vessels such as the Pryde-Class Battlecarrier and the Princeps Mark-II Heavy Battlecruiser which fit this criteria.
- Output:
- 7 to 9 Months for Super Star Destroyers and Dreadnoughts
- 5 to 6 Months for Battlecruisers
- 2 to 3 Months for Star Destroyers
- ~2 Months for Cruisers
- 3 to 6 Weeks for Frigates
- 2 to 3 Weeks for Corvettes
- 5 to 12 Days for Support Craft and Starfighters
- Market: Raptor Base produces ships exclusively for the Final Dawn and Final Dawn Proxy/Allied Organizations within and outside the Brotherhood of the Maw
- External Dry-Docks | Raptor Base holds thirty external Dry-docks which are primarily utilized for the construction of Star Destroyer and Battlecruiser-sized Capital Ships
- Internal Construction Bays | Within it's interior, Raptor Base has a network of internal construction areas for the production of smaller craft such as Starfighters, Corvettes, Frigates and Cruisers.
- Central Command Center | This is where all operations throughout Raptor Base are overseen from and where the Administrator of Raptor Base carries out his day-to-day operation. It is also linked to the O'reen Sector Defense Fleet and the Orbital Defense Network allowing for rapid co-ordination in case of a battle.
- Living Quarters & Barracks | Located throughout two separate portions of Raptor Base , the Living Quarters and Barracks are where the personnel who man Raptor Base and the Shipyard's Garrison reside which also holds recreational facilities such as mess halls, gymnasiums and infirmaries for all personnel whether they are workers or soldiers.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
After the formation of the Final Dawn from the union of the Neo-Imperial Sith Cultists loyal to Darth Solipsis and the Greater Imperial Remnant of Derix Tirall, O'reen was rapidly conquered by the Final Dawn with the ruling Magnus overthrown and Derix Tirall establishing himself as the Mawite Warlord of O'reen with the Planet subsequently becoming the Capital of the Final Dawn. After the conquest of O'reen the Final Dawn began works to consolidate it's hold with the then Lord-Imperator of Byss, Marlon Sularen secretly collaborating with Tirall by providing him with the resources needed to build more infrastructure on O'reen before his untimely removal from power and his subsequent shift of allegiance from the Alliance to the Brotherhood of the Maw. As part of this secret collaboration, SularenCo began the construction of various facilities on O'reen which included the O'reen Shipyards.
Since it's initial construction, the O'reen Shipyards did not receive much attention having already been supplemented by the much larger Exegol and Copero Shipyards which became the Final Dawn's primary shipbuilding facilities throughout the Early Stages of the Second Great Hyperspace War. The O'reen Shipyards did not receive much attention until the loss of Copero at the hands of the Galactic Alliance just when the Maw began it's own push towards the Core Worlds. As such with the loss of a vital shipyard and in need to keep it's War Industry afloat, the Final Dawn sought to acquire the shipyards at Cathay and Oriam Mei within the Unknown Regions and the Alliance-controlled Xa Fel and Foerost Shipyards. However during their push into the Core, both the Xa Fel and Foerost Shipyards were scuttled by the Alliance while the Final Dawn only successfully secured Cathay while Oriam Mei fell at the hands of the Bloodsworn.
Upon his ascension as High Regent of the Final Dawn, Sularen prioritized the expansion of the Final Dawn's War Machine moving forth to develop and expand new Facilities throughout not only the Final Dawn by the Maw as a whole in order to strengthen the Final Dawn's War Machine in the face of new enemies both within and outside the Maw. As such the O'reen Shipyards, nicknamed Raptor Base by the High Regent was extensively expanded and upgraded with the Shipyards receiving a complete makeover from SularenCo. The End result was a massive shipyard that would come to rival the Bloodsworn's Dread Forge at Ossertion and the Final Dawn-controlled Exegol Shipyards, a suitable replacement for Copero and the perfect means to keep the Final Dawn's War Machine afloat and preserve the Final Dawn's Momentum.
Now Raptor Base stands as one of the largest shipyards within the Brotherhood of the Maw, producing large amount of Final Dawn Warships to wage war against the Galactic Alliance and all who dare to challenge the might of the Final Dawn and the New Sith Order.
