Classification: Salvage Yard
Location: Outskirts of the Ruins of Santaissa
Affiliation: The First Order
Description: The largest salvage yard currently on Kaeshana, it boasts a size of a couple of kilometers square. From hulking remains of large space vessels to the miniature objects found in small armored vehicles such as inner lamps and wrecked computer terminals, Salvage Yard Santaissa is a heaven for those that can turn junk into something useful.
It is owned and operated by the First Order and it is through them that one can legally purchase items. The security of the salvage yard is average, with random patrols around for any trespassers. It boasts four official entrances on four opposite sides, while the salvage yard's territory is marked by the construction of a wired wall.
Salvage Yard Santaissa is from where the majority of disposed machines of war after the battle of Kaeshana can be found. Some could not be recognized from the damage, others a bit more preserved, literally one can found almost anything that had participated in the gruesome battle of the planet between the First Order and the Tygaran Alliance.
Most, if not all, of the materials for repairs and salvage that occurs in the First Order Repair Depots on the surface is taken from this yard.
History: There is much work to be done after a battle is over. Clean up is probably one of the first. The immense amount of forces that clashed over and on Kaeshana, along with the devastating losses on both sides have both been major factors in the appearance of this massive salvage yard.
Vital for sustainability, salvaging plays an important role of cutting expenses of new productions by recycling them. Skilled salvagers and mechanics with a dose of creativity are able to fix the worst of damages or use complete scraps to produce something totally different that could still find its valuable purpose for a much lower cost than a completely new produce.
Santaissa was one of the major points of combat during the battle and the bulk of remains found itself on the land of the ruined city. Thus, it was found logical that almost, if not all, other remains be carried straight to this bulk. Eventually forming what is now known as Salvage Yard Santaissa.
Intent: Create a location that is a direct outcome of an event/thread on Chaos. Also, add a new point of interest for those that write salvagers/scrap lords/dubious mechanics.
