For many beings in
the galaxy, life is a transient thing. Job opportunities can take
them from planet to planet, often with little or no notice. When
those individuals need a place to keep their belongings, they can
look to a facility like Tonis Luruk's.
The
Facility
A
meter-thick, four-meter-high duracrete wall surrounds the facility.
The only entrance is a broad gate in the front of the facility (1);
it boasts an alphanumeric keypad for customers to access, along with
security cameras. The main office (2) is a low building in the front
of the compound. In addition to Luruk's desk (A), it has a break area
for the workers (B), a room for storing records (C), a storage closet
(D) and a refresher (E). Workers who are not on patrol can monitor
the security cameras in the break area.
The
storage units are divided into buildings based on size. Small ones
(3) are four meters square and of a matching height, while medium (4)
and large ones (5) have dimensions of six and eight meters,
respectively. All of the buildings require a common code for their
entrance doors, along with individual codes for individual units.
Bypassing a lock requires a hard Skulduggery check, and there's
always the chance of being seen on the aforementioned security
cameras.

Tonis Luruk is a
respected business-being in the Ugnaught community. While that might
not seem like a lot, he sees it as his duty to look out for his
fellows, and to keep the trust of his clientele. To those ends he is
a no-nonsense individual. He suspects that employees of the Hutts
move illegal goods through his facility, but as long as they don't
cause trouble for him, he doesn't pry into their business.

These Ugnaughts are
loyal to their boss, Tonis. They have comfortable, if not too
exciting, jobs, and they take seriously their responsibility of
keeping the facility secure. In their downtime they enjoy a hand of
sabacc in the lounge, or watching a swoop race if one's being
broadcast.
Using the Storage Facility in an
Edge of the Empire Campaign
This location can be incorporated in a campaign in many different
ways; a few of the possibilities are detailed here.
- The PCs could be hired to retrieve an item from the facility, perhaps requiring them to scope it out before attempting the retrieval.
- If the item is especially valuable, there could always be rivals who hope to acquire the item before the PCs manage to do so.
- If the facility suffered an infestation of vermin, Luruk could hire the PCs to help eliminate it.
- In the aftermath of a break-in, Luruk could hire them to recover an item before its owner realizes that it's been lost.
- During a visit to the facility, a combat droid being stored in one of the units becomes activated and chaos ensues.
