SETTING INFORMATION
Shipyard Name: Diastec Orbital Yard "D.O.Y."
Classification: Orbital Station – Civilian Shipyard
Location: Bastion Orbit
Affiliation: The Diarchy (civilian-industrial administration)
Population: Multi-species personnel humans, chiss, zeltrons, twi'leks, and others.
Accessibility: Easily visible from orbit; a luminous blue ring circling Bastion, directly linked to its resource routes.
Description:
Suspended in Bastion's upper orbit, the Diastec Orbital Yard stands as a monumental ring of steel and light — a hub of construction and coordination. Massive spires rise from its core, housing control towers, industrial foundries, and administrative centers. The structure forms a continuous 10-kilometer ring, its arcs glowing with blue stabilizing fields that maintain the station's balance and temperature.
Though monumental in size, the D.O.Y. operates under full civilian oversight, serving as an industrial facility dedicated to the building, testing, and maintenance of all classes of spacecraft.
OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
Production:
The shipyard hosts a vast array of drydocks capable of handling ships up to 5 000 m in length. Its internal production network allows for complete in-house fabrication alloy refinement, hull assembly, propulsion integration, and system calibration ensuring full autonomy for the Diarchy's industrial needs.
Specialty:
Primary center for large-scale civilian ship construction and orbital assembly. Although the Diarchy commissions most of its vessels here, the station itself remains a non-military, open-market facility under civilian control.
Production Output:
From small transports to capital-class hulls, every vessel produced is assembled, tested, and launched from Bastion's orbit. The process prioritizes efficiency, safety, and logistical precision.
Market:
Closed-market contracts primarily serving the Diarchy and its allies. All transactions and coordination are handled through Bastion's trade network for efficiency and oversight.
POINTS OF INTEREST
Main Ring:
The central industrial zone where ships are assembled and refined. Automated cranes and foundry lines process thousands of tons of durasteel and titanium each cycle.
Secondary Ring:
Command and coordination area overseeing assembly, launch schedules, and dock allocation.
Central Core:
Administrative and engineering center registration of vessels, personnel rotation, and coordination of material logistics.
Energy Network:
An internal reactor grid powers every system aboard the D.O.Y. The energy network operates on redundant civilian reactors similar to nuclear types, designed for stability and safety.
Residential & Commerce Sector:
Shops, recreation areas, and residential quarters provide comfortable living conditions for thousands of workers and visiting personnel.
SECURITY
Level: None
(The D.O.Y. is a civilian installation. It has no armaments, defense systems, or military-grade protection. Security aboard is handled only through non-lethal containment measures, docking protocols, and crew oversight.)
COMMUNICATION & COORDINATION
- Central Command Node: Overseen by the Ada Core, an AI handling stationwide logistics and communication.
- Bio-Hexacrypt Encryption: Protects industrial data and communications against intrusion.
- Subspace Link Network: Maintains stable long-range communication and operational coordination.
- Internal Broadcast Grid: Manages crew communication, alerts, and general information flow.
HANGAR & DOCKING FACILITIES
- Modular drydocks with magnetic containment fields for atmospheric isolation.
- Adjustable docking bays for both construction and refitting operations.
- All docks certified for heavy industrial use only no fighter or warship squadrons stationed permanently.
Suspended in the stillness of Bastion's upper orbit, the Diastec Orbital Yard (D.O.Y.) stands as the Diarchy's ultimate symbol of industrial independence and military strength. Known colloquially as the Ring of Production, the station's glowing blue arcs encircle a massive central core of foundries, shipyards, and control towers. Its form is both elegant and imposing a luminous ring of durasteel and obsidian alloy balanced by a core of command spires and reactor conduits.
Measuring ten kilometers across, the D.O.Y. is capable of constructing vessels from nimble starfighters to colossal battlecruisers and star destroyer. Inside its vast docks, engineering teams and automated systems work in concert to assemble the next generation of the Diarchy's navy. Each ship produced here is tested, calibrated, and verified within Bastion's orbital range before being assigned to active duty.
Every corridor hums with life and precision from the industrial foundries melting raw metal into hull plating, to the command sectors issuing launch authorizations, and the residential zones where thousands of engineers, pilots, and staff live and work in rotation. Beneath the calm blue light of its shielding rings, the station is a living city dedicated entirely to creation and control.
Built under the oversight of Lyssara Thrynn, and commanded by Diarch Rellik, the D.O.Y. represents the apex of Diarch engineering philosophy: self-reliant, impregnable, and ever-efficient. It is both factory and fortress a beacon of industrial might above Bastion's blue horizon.
