=== Races | Economy | Buildings & Organizations === ====== BRENNA SOLVIK’S DOCKHOUSE ====== ===== Overview ===== * **Location:** Industrial Ring, [[arla_town|Arla Town]] * **Address:** NW Industrial Ring Road 5 * **Surroundings:** Located in Arla Town's "Fishermen's Quarter", adjacent to the banks of [[lake_arla|Lake Arla]] and nearby the [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fishfactory]]. Brenna Solvik was respected for her knowledge of Lake Arla’s currents and weather patterns. She trained fishers to “read the water” and often piloted boats through treacherous shallows. Her own catch was modest but steady, always routed through the [[arla_town_market|Arla Town Market]] or sold in bulk to the [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fishfactory]]. All gear maintenance and net repairs were handled collectively at [[tiller_net_fishing_supplies|Tiller & Net Fishing Supplies]]. The dockhouse was destroyed during the [[great_war|Great War]], when the [[alliance_of_native_tribes|Alliance of Native Tribes]] raided and burned down [[arla_town|Arla Town]] as a whole. ===== Architectural Significance ===== * **Construction Material:** Timber frame with stone hearth * **Dock:** Narrow pier with carved poles for water-level marking * **Interior:** Chart wall with hand-drawn depth maps; shelves of weather journals ===== Building Structure ===== * **Boat Slip:** Rowboat *Seaguide* * **Chart Wall:** Lake/shallows maps and current notes * **Storage:** Waterproof boxes, floats, line spools * **Living Corner:** Bedroll and hearth stove ===== Roles and Responsibilities ===== * **Master Fisherwoman & Pilot:** Brenna Solvik * **Apprentice (1):** Assisted in mapping and boat handling ===== Products ===== | **Product/Service** | **Distribution/Destination** | **Channel** | **Price ([[kourou|Kourou]])** | | Fresh Fish (kg) | Daily catch | [[arla_town_market|Arla Town Market]] / [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fishfactory]] | 20 K | | Pilotage / Guidance (per trip) | Through shallows & trick channels | Direct service | 150 K | ===== Look and Feel ===== The dockhouse carried the scent of damp parchment and charred wood. In the perpetual twilight, lanterns threw a soft glow across pinned maps, their inked lines tracing hidden currents and sandbars. Brenna’s careful annotations and weather journals gave the place a quiet, authoritative mood. ===== Public Access, Operating Hours & Operational Rhythm ===== * **Operating Hours:** 04:30 – 17:00 * **Delivery Rhythm:** Fish landed early; pilotage by appointment around low-wind periods * **Community Role:** Safety mentor and shallow-water guide for the Quarter; steady contributor to Market/Factory supply ===== Player Interactions ===== ==== Legal ==== * Hire Brenna to pilot through hazardous shallows or shifting channels * Commission a copy of her depth notes for an expedition * Arrange fish deliveries via Arla Town Market / negotiate bulk with Fishfactory ==== Illegal ==== * Bribe Brenna to guide a vessel past river checkpoints unseen * Steal or alter her water-level markers to strand rivals * Forge annotations on her charts to misroute shipments ===== Tactical Advice for Dungeon Masters ===== Brenna can serve as a cautious ally, teaching PCs how to navigate Lake Arla safely — or as a reluctant conspirator forced to guide smugglers. Her charts can be plot devices, whether stolen, forged, or hidden. ==== Adventure Hook Example ==== * **The Stolen Maps –** Brenna’s depth charts are stolen before a major expedition. PCs must track down the thieves, who may be smugglers planning to use her knowledge to bypass Guarding Trooper patrols. ===== Related Pages ===== * [[beta_age|Beta Age]] * [[free_state_of_settlers|Free State of Settlers]] * [[arla_town|Arla Town]] * [[tiller_net_fishing_supplies|Tiller & Net Fishing Supplies]] * [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fishfactory]] * [[arla_town_market|Arla Town Market]] **Fishermen of the Fishermen's Quarter in Arla Town:** * [[joran_veyl_s_dockhouse|Joran Veyl's Dockhouse]] * [[Lira Kaelen’s Dockhouse|Lira Kaelen’s Dockhouse]] * [[Daron Crest’s Dockhouse|Daron Crest’s Dockhouse]] * [[Brenna Solvik’s Dockhouse|Brenna Solvik’s Dockhouse]] * [[Torven Hald’s Dockhouse|Torven Hald’s Dockhouse]] * [[Elira Dahn’s Dockhouse|Elira Dahn’s Dockhouse]] * [[Korrin Thalos’ Dockhouse|Korrin Thalos’ Dockhouse]] * [[Selka Jorn’s Dockhouse| Selka Jorn’s Dockhouse]] * [[Varro Denik’s Dockhouse|Varro Denik’s Dockhouse]] * [[Yorin Fesk’s Dockhouse|Yorin Fesk’s Dockhouse]] * [[Mira Tann’s Dockhouse| Mira Tann’s Dockhouse]]
