=== Races | Economy | Buildings & Organizations === ====== LIRA KAELEN’S DOCKHOUSE ====== ===== Overview ===== * **Location:** Industrial Ring, [[arla_town|Arla Town]] * **Address:** NW Industrial Ring Road 3 * **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]]. Lira Kaelen, a widowed fisherwoman in her forties, was famed for her durable handwoven nets. While her dockhouse centered on net-weaving and storage, her family’s fish catch was routed through the [[arla_town_market|Arla Town Market]] and bulk sales to the [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fishfactory]]. All net repairs and rope sales were conducted collectively at [[tiller_net_fishing_supplies|Tiller & Net Fishing Supplies]], never directly from her dockhouse. 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:** Wood with canvas awning, stone stilts * **Dock:** Short pier with net-drying frames * **Interior:** Looms for ropework, barrels of hemp, hearth stove ===== Building Structure ===== * **Net Looms (2):** For weaving * **Drying Yard:** Nets stretched on wooden frames * **Boat Slip:** Skiff *Silver Thread* moored outside * **Storage:** Hemp coils, rope barrels, resin jars * **Living Corner:** Cot, loom table, shrine to ancestors ===== Roles and Responsibilities ===== * **Master Fisherwoman:** Lira Kaelen * **Apprentices (2):** Assisted in net-making (work tied to cooperative) ===== Products ===== | **Product** | **Distribution** | **Channel** | **Price ([[kourou|Kourou]])** | | Fresh Fish (kg) | Daily catch | [[arla_town_market|Arla Town Market]] / [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fishfactory]] | 20 K | | Nets & Ropes | Production only | Tiller & Net Fishing Supplies | — | ===== Look and Feel ===== Kaelen’s dockhouse was filled with the steady rhythm of weaving, the air heavy with hemp fibers and resin. In the perpetual twilight of the [[asari|Asari Region]], nets hung like curtains, their shifting shadows cast by the muted glow of lanternlight. The atmosphere was quiet ===== Public Access, Operating Hours & Operational Rhythm ===== * **Operating Hours:** 05:00 – 17:00 * **Community Role:** Contributed nets to the cooperative and fish to Market and Factory ===== Player Interactions ===== ==== Legal ==== * Arrange fish deliveries via Market/Factory * Apprentice under Kaelen (through the cooperative) ==== Illegal ==== * Forge cooperative logs to siphon net profits * Smuggle contraband hidden in rope coils ===== Tactical Advice for Dungeon Masters ===== Kaelen’s nets tied the Quarter together — but her dockhouse itself was not a shop. Plot hooks should tie to the cooperative (net supply sabotage, bookkeeping fraud) or her role as a respected craftswoman. ==== Adventure Hook Example ==== * **The Cut Net –** Sabotage of Kaelen’s nets leads to failed fish deliveries to the Market. PCs must find the saboteur before hunger spreads. ===== Related Pages ===== * [[beta_age|Beta Age]] * [[free_state_of_settlers|Free State of Settlers]] * [[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]]
