- Farm Name: Bareesh Kajidic Drug Farms
- Material: Giggledust | Savorium
- Location: Ylesia | Dandoran | Ziugen
- Affiliation: Bareesh Kajidic | Hutt Space Consortium
- Size: Large
- Population: Moderately Staffed
- Profit: High
- Accessibility: These plantations are located deep in the jungles and forests of Ylesia, Dandoran, and Ziugen. Consequently, they are reachable only by shuttle or air speeder. An electric fence runs the perimeter of each plantation, with autoturrets at equal intervals along the fenceline. There are also Hune-Haor mass driver emplacements and usually about 50-100 Bareesh Vodran or Nikto warriors garrisoned in each plantation.
- Description: Each farm is tucked away in mountain valleys, jungle canopies, or areas of the planets which are slightly harder to reach and that tourists would not simply stumble upon. Each farm typically has at least 1,000 "indentured" farm hands, who are tightly packed into rows of bunked quarters. Separate from dormitories of the slaves are a barracks for the soldiers. There is also a main manor house, typically a domed structure, which houses the well-paid overseers. There are typically only a couple dozen overseers. These overseers are usually Chevins or Abyssins. The giggledust flowers and savorium herbs are kept in silos until they are ready for processing. The processing labs are set up much farther away from the main buildings.
- Manor - the largest structure in the farms is the manor, which is where the operation's overseers live. There are enough rooms to house special guests coming in from off-planet as well.
- Spice Silos - the silos are separated by the type of herb or flower harvested. Currently this is only savorium and giggledust. Each can hold thousands of pounds of produce.
- Spice Refinery - the refineries, set off slightly from the main buildings in case of an accident, turn the herbs and flowers into a refined powder, which is then packaged and shipped off-world for distribution.
SECURITY - High
The Bareesh Kajidic takes the security of its farms seriously, as the sale of the drugs grown there are a huge source of revenue. Consequently, there are mass driver emplacements, autoturrets, an electric fence, and Kajidic soldiers who won't hesitate to shoot first and ask questions later.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
After the Bareesh lost their spice plantations on Rishi, Gorba decided to invest in opportunities elsewhere. With the destruction of the Bryn'adul, Hutt Space was once more free from an existential threat. What's more, Gorba had fewer competitors due to the genocide of his species by the Bryn. He did not say no to free real estate. Quickly, Bareesh established farms on Ylesia, Dandoran, and Ziugen, all lush jungle or agricultural worlds capable of producing large quantities of the drugs his operations needed. Bareesh, however, only handles the production side and typically sells the savorium and giggledust to the Exchange. In particular, Gorba has reached out to
Kingsley
and
Xyoz Maji
for the smuggling and distribution of the drugs. The flow of narcotics through this supply and distribution chain has represented to Gorba the values of the Hutt Space Consortium and shows what the syndicates can achieve when they combine their efforts.While addictive, giggledust and savorium do not cause the mass panic that harder drugs like glitterstim do, as the effects often only appear to make the user happier... at first. It is the complacency of savorium that interested Gorba most. The slaves he employs in the farms are all hooked on savorium, making them docile, pliable, and less prone to revolt.
