=== Races | Economy | Buildings & Organizations === ====== TORVEN HALD’S DOCKHOUSE ====== ===== Overview ===== * **Location:** Industrial Ring, [[arla_town|Arla Town]] * **Address:** NW Industrial Ring Road 6 * **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]]. Torven Hald specialized in deep-water netting on Lake Arla. His heavy gear—maintained and repaired via [[tiller_net_fishing_supplies|Tiller & Net Fishing Supplies]] — brought in larger hauls than most. All fish moved through the [[arla_town_market|Arla Town Market]] or went in bulk to the [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fishfactory]]. The dockhouse was destroyed during the [[great_war|Great War]] when the [[alliance_of_native_tribes|Alliance of Native Tribes]] razed [[arla_town|Arla Town]]. ===== Architectural Significance ===== * **Construction Material:** Heavy timbers; reinforced roof beams for hoists * **Dock:** Broad pier with pulley frames for net hauling * **Interior:** Strong drying frames for deep nets; stout tool pegs ===== Building Structure ===== * **Boat Slip:** Broad fishing boat *Deepdraught* * **Net Frames:** Overhead beams for dripping/drying nets * **Storage:** Large barrels, hooks, weighted lines * **Sleeping Loft:** Hammock, chest, storm gear ===== Roles and Responsibilities ===== * **Master Fisherman:** Torven Hald * **Crew (2):** Helped cast/haul and secure heavy gear ===== Products ===== | **Product/Service** | **Distribution/Destination** | **Channel** | **Price ([[kourou|Kourou]])** | | Fresh Fish (kg) | Large hauls | [[arla_town_market|Arla Town Market]] / [[funkenberg_fish_factory|Funkenberg Fishfactory]] | 20 K | | Heavy Haul Assist (per session) | Winch & crew for salvage/search | Direct service | 120 K | ===== Look and Feel ===== Wet hemp and lake silt perfumed the air. In the [[asari|Asari Region's]] perpetual twilight, the net-laden beams loomed like dark rigging, water ticking from line to plank. Pulleys creaked; Torven’s short, clipped orders kept the place moving with the rhythm of a ship’s engine room. ===== Public Access, Operating Hours & Operational Rhythm ===== * **Operating Hours:** 03:30 – 17:00 * **Delivery Rhythm:** Predawn launches; bulk offload to Market/Factory late morning * **Community Role:** High-volume supplier; emergency muscle for salvage or search trawls ===== Player Interactions ===== ==== Legal ==== * Contract Torven’s crew for a salvage drag or search trawl * Arrange bulk offload windows with the Fishfactory * Coordinate delivery timing with Arla Town Market ==== Illegal ==== * Hide contraband within deep-net hauls * Sabotage pulley frames to cause “accidents” * Bribe crew to misreport weights before factory tally ===== Tactical Advice for Dungeon Masters ===== Torven represents raw strength and heavy hauling power in the Quarter. His gear and crew are useful for salvage or mass transport — but equally tempting for smugglers or saboteurs seeking to disrupt supply chains. ==== Adventure Hook Example ==== * **The Weighted Nets –** Someone has tampered with Torven’s nets, causing repeated losses. PCs must uncover whether it’s sabotage by rivals, Cartel meddling, or a cover-up for smuggling operations. ===== 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]]
