- Structure Name: SIN 99
- Classification: Luxury Tower
- Location: Coruscant, Senate District
- Affiliation: SIN, Coratanni Cartel
- Accessibility:
The building itself is located not too far away from the Senate Building and Republica 500, placed just a mile or so away from both sites. This gives the building an incredible view of the wealthier area of Coruscant.
Of course due to it's location, SIN 99, and the Senate District as a whole, is more heavily patrolled by Coruscant Security. This means that the 'rabble' is most often kept out naturally.
- Security:
Along with these more basic measures, SIN 99 also has several "Security Floors". These levels of the tower are entirely dedicated to the Coratanni Cartel and it's various forces, often housing everything from Coratanni Executioners to the Human Replica droids that the Cartel keeps around as it's private army.
This is both a security measure and a way to house the Cartel's forces on Coruscant.
- Description:
The tower itself is somewhat misnamed, given that the building is actually composed of two separate towers instead of just one. Aside from this misnomer however SIN 99 completely and totally lives up to it's every claim.
Every single floor of the building is dedicated to a single apartment, meaning that every level of the structure is owned by a separate person. This creates a level of exclusivity and allows for an untold amount of luxury. Each floor is designed and set out exactly how the owner sees fit, the work done by SIN's own construction arm. Every apartment can differ wildly, holding different features, layouts, amenities, and everything else that one can imagine.
Like with most buildings, the higher ones floor is, the more money it costs to live there.
The top floors of SIN 99 are both owned by SIN themselves. One tower is the penthouse of Felix Thawne, while the other belongs to Natalia and Slevin Thawne. Aside from these however all other luxury apartments are owned by carefully vetted, and rather wealthy owners.
POINTS OF INTEREST
Lobby: The Lobby of SIN 99 is an incredibly organized and rather beautiful little spot, though surprisingly dangerous for a building within the Senate District.
The lobby itself is rather plain, containing a large water fountain, a single desk, and beyond that two hallways that lead to separate turbo-lifts for each of the two towers which compose SIN 99. This empty space however is what could very easily be considered a 'killing floor', and for any trained combatant it is obvious that the layout of the lobby makes it rather difficult for any attackers to reach the hallway beyond without getting cut down by blaster fire.
Luxury Floors: The Luxury floors of SIN 99 are what make up a majority of the buildings.
Every single floor of the building is dedicated to a single apartment, meaning that every level of the structure is owned by a separate person. This creates a level of exclusivity and allows for an untold amount of luxury. Each floor is designed and set out exactly how the owner sees fit, the work done by SIN's own construction arm. Every apartment can differ wildly, holding different features, layouts, amenities, and everything else that one can imagine.
This high amount of customization draws people from all over the galaxy, and SIN 99 has rapidly become popular among the ultra-rich within both the core and the outer rim.
Of course, a large amount of people who own a floor in SIN 99 do not spend the majority of their time within these apartments, and thus the building itself offers a service that manages these floors. Of course, this is optional.
Security Floors: The 'Security Floors' of SIN 99 are the areas of the structure that are unlisted and undocumented. Every tenth floor found within SIN 99 is a dedicated wholly to the Coratanni Cartel.
This means that these floors are mainly used to house the various Security forces, arms, and other contraband that the Coratanni Cartel sometimes keeps on Coruscant. These floors are well defended and well protected, often guarded by Coratanni Executioners and Enforcers, as well as holding several automated defenses such as turrets and motion sensors.
None of these floors appear on any schematic or the turbo-lift options, and accessing them is only possible through a special key held by members of the Cartel.
These floors also are often where most of the Thawne Children stay when they are passing through Coruscant. Though most of these Apartments are rather spartan in nature, some of them are decorated with more finesse and luxury.
Other: SIN 99 is a luxury building, and thus it contains all of the amenities one would think to find in such a place. This includes several attached landing platforms, parking garage, and all things of that nature.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
SIN 99 does not have a very large history.
As the Coratanni Cartel, and SIN, expand throughout the galaxy, it is only natural that certain hubs of Economy and Culture become more and more attractive to the mega-corporation and Crime Organization.
The greatest hub of both of these things is of course Coruscant.
Natalia and Slevin Thawne decided early on that both of their organizations would be well met with a target Audience on the largest, and most populace world in the entire Galaxy. Thus quite a few of SIN and Coratanni Cartel operations were begun on Coruscant. This shifting of resources was facilitated by the placement of both Nikolas and Felix Thawne upon the city world.
With Nikolas handling the dealings of the Underworld Felix was able to focus his efforts on the legitimate side of the business.
The young man, deft in his trade, quickly set about the purchasing and construction of several Coratanni and SIN influenced structures throughout Coruscant. One of these was SIN 99, a home for him, his family, and various other oligarchs from around the galaxy.
