SETTING INFORMATION

Structure Name: Ramikadyc'yaim (Translation: Commando State of Mind Home) | RKYU | CSMH | R.K.’Yaim Uni
Classification: Large University
Location: Mandalore
Affiliation: Mandalorian Empire
Accessibility: Ramikadyc’yaim is located inside the city of Sundari. It is a highly populated university that is full of the Empire’s minds and has some of the brightest, most intelligent scientists and researchers in the Empire. The vast majority of the university is open to the public, particularly the library, stadiums, and various restaurants around the campus.

There are a few select areas that are inaccessible. The dormitories can only be entered by university staff, residents, campus police, and authorized guests. The laboratories that are scattered throughout the campus and underground are typically private and only university, military, and government staff can have access.

There is no military presence on the campus. There are no fortifications which would protect the school from an attack, such as an invasion.

There is private security that is contracted on occasion from private companies (mainly when special/controversial guests arrive on campus), a small campus police force, which is backed by the Sundari police when necessary.

Restricted areas are only accessible by a badge, fingerprint, retinal scan, and a voice recognition by saying a password that is randomly generated every 30 days. Usually, there are guards (with basic equipment) in the restricted areas (primarily at major entrances), but there still is very limited presence unless they are called in for an emergency situation.

Description: The Ramikadyc'yaim is situated in Sundari City, Mandalore. The large campus is easily accessible via hovercraft, public transportation, or walking if nearby in Sundari. Small ships can also dock at the University through a small spaceport that was built into its design. At first glance, an individual will see several large towers and several smaller ground-based buildings.

The largest towers contain the various education departments that make up the university. The only that has a different design and is at the front of the campus a unique design and consists solely of the Horizon Hall of Sciences. It was designed specifically for an interesting architectural design to help inspire students imaginations, creativity, and so forth.

After passing through several large solar panels, there is the Main Hall, Dormitories, some personal offices, and some of the Research Labs that are next to the Horizon Hall of Sciences.


One of the smallest towers is a small spaceport that allows entrance for small space vehicles, most notably guest speakers. Only small craft can dock at the station due to its small size. As such, it is underutilized, however, and there are talks of removing it entirely and simply creating a shuttle between the Sundari spaceport and the University.

Main Hall (Mand’alor the Infernal Hall)

The main hall is a series of connected buildings which house most of the administrative offices, meeting areas, and cafeteria of the University. Oftentimes space within the Infernal’s hall can be rented out to the government, military, or private organizations for meetings, conferences, etc. In the event of a city emergency, it also has the ability to be retrofitted into a refugee settlement with little ease.

Most students and facility will enter this hall every day. It contains a high occupancy auditorium. The majority of its use comes from orientation and when commencement takes place. This is also where guest speakers will speak during special events, although the majority of the time it is not at full capacity during such events.

The cafeteria area is one of the largest areas on the campus. It contains numerous restaurants ranging from different food cultures from all across the galaxy. A major cornerstone of the cafeteria is its diversity and often creates business contracts with various restaurants and eateries around the galaxy to set up a shop in the cafeteria. As such, it is common to see hundreds of people in the cafeteria at various times throughout the day.

Lastly, the Library of Mandalore is located in the main hall. It is an extensive library system that houses hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of books, holotapes, etc that are available not only for students but for Mandalorian Empire citizens. Be sure to return your book, holotape, etc on your due date!

The campus police station is also located on the edge of this building, where students can file reports & get legal advice. If the campus police cannot assist, they will refer the student to the Sundari police.

Almost all areas in the Main Hall, except for private offices, are available to the public.

Dormitories

The dormitory is an extensive area that houses students. Two students can be fitted per room. There is usually between 10-20 rooms per floor & each floor has a communal bathroom, kitchen, and living space.

All rooms come equipped with a small refrigerator and microwave, desks, and a twin size bed. Students are free to decorate the halls as they see fit - provided that they repaint it to its original color once they move out.

Faculty recommends a purchase of a comfortable bed topping before moving in!

Mandalore Hall of Ecology (Department of Ecology, Terraforming, and Sustainability)

The Mandalore Hall of Ecology is at the forefront of ecological research & development. Their primary objectives are to teach students about the ecological/environment of various types of worlds, sustainability. The Hall of Ecology also includes architectural design, sustainable building practices.

Ultimately, the primary goal of the department is to teach students sustainable practices, terraforming of planets, and how to maintain a clean, protected environment on any world.

Horizon Hall of Sciences (Department of General Sciences, Engineering, and Shipbuilding)

The Horizon Hall of Sciences is the department of general sciences, engineering, and shipbuilding. It contains a huge array of classes in general sciences, such as cartography, archaeology (all species), geography, social work, galactic history, etc. There is a large focus on engineering & shipbuilding, as engineering has the highest enrollment at the University.

Warmaster Hall (Department of War Studies)

The Hall of War specifically focuses on war studies. This is to perfect a student who plans to stay enlisted in the Mandalorian Empire or their Clans armies/navies after their mandatory service & education is completed. The Warmaster Hall often collaborates with the other departments of the University to enhance student learnings in different subjects & how to apply them to wartime strategies.

As such, classes are primarily focused on strategy. This includes peacetime defensive strategies, fleeting & ground combat, various ship and weapon designs in the Mandalorian Empire but also across the larger galaxy. It contains classes on different types of warfare - such as guerrilla, defensive, offensive, etc.

A large focus on all classes in this is how to prevent civilian casualty & harm. One of the main tenants of Mandalorian war policy is to prevent & protect civilians. As such, there are several classes geared solely to how spot civilians in a war zone & how to evacuate them.

Hall of Medicine (Department of Biology and Medicine)

The Hall of Medicine focuses solely on biology and medicine. The classes here are focused on multi-species biology. Biology here mainly focuses on sapient life forms and does not take on semi-sentient or non-sentient biology (which is handled in Horizon Hall of Sciences.)

A student who wants to become a doctor, healer, etc will sign up to be part of the Hall of Medicine. Students will about various medicines, vaccines, tests, splicing, research protocols, cloning procedures, etc.

Skirata Hall of Clans (Department of Clan Studies)

The Skirata Hall of Clans is the vaguest one as most of the degrees from this are focused on specific Clans (such as Australis, Mantis, Raxis, Skirata, etc) that are associated with the Mandalorian Empire. As such, classes here can range incredibly as it is specific to the Clan & their corresponding wishes for their courses.

Research Labs

The research labs are the primary area where faculty and staff can research. The labs contain state of the art equipment, tight security in terms of access to them, and trained intelligent staff. The majority of the research in these labs contain engineering principles, ship designs, war strategies, and biology (such as genetics, medicines, etc.)

Underground Research Labs

The underground research labs are classified and as such, most people do not know they exist except for top-level faculty, scientists, government officials, and the military. Most research here is contracted by the Mandalorian Empire or the Mandalorian military forces. There is little to no private investment in the facilities.

The labs run underneath the university. Types of research that may occur here are top secret engineering projects, biological projects, and large-scale simulations of various strategies in warfare. The underground research labs are extensively secret. Only top-level people have access and knowledge about the research that goes on under the university. However, all research that is done here is watched carefully to ensure that there would be no effect on the environment, tectonic activity, or pose a hazard to the University or Sundari.

SECURITY

Low.

Ramikadyc'yaim contains a small campus police force to handle campus related criminal matters. However, if the campus police cannot handle or deal with a situation, the larger Sundari City law enforcement will be called in to assist.

There are no military level defenses for the university.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

The Ramikadyc'yaim was founded at the begin of [member=Yasha Mantis] reign as Mand’alor the Infernal as primarily a research university. The University was commissioned to mark a new era in the Mandalorian Empire - one of growth, rebuilding, and hope after a devastating civil war led to the destruction of Mandalore.

It’s founding resulted in a culture of intense education but also of understanding and empathy. The faculty is trained to assist each and every student and, if necessary, refer them to medical services such as counseling without judgment.

The University construction initially only focused on ecological sciences, such as terraforming but quickly grew into a large, sprawling campus with state of the art equipment and an extremely intelligent workforce (and student population!) Once the Mandalorian Empire realized how quickly the investment was paying off, the government began credit infusions to help grow the student and faculty body. Organizations, companies, etc quickly dived into the University as well - offering special employment slots for graduated students.

The University was safely situated in the capital city of Sundari. Construction was quick and enrollment quickly increased as students, especially those displaced from Mandalore, tried to return to the planet. Many Mandalorian citizens from poorer planets found an opportunity to get into the University and find themselves in Sundari. Regrettably, the Ramikadyc'yaim turns away more applications than it accepts now due to the popularity of the campus.

Most importantly, a student who graduates from Ramikadyc'yaim are prepared for the workforce, military, or government service and are trained at the highest level possible.
