Points of Interest:
1.) Jacks House: Where Jack lives. It's wooden with Durasteel roof and a deck. Got a Kitchen/ Dining room, Living room, and Bedroom.
2.) The Barn & Workshop & Forge: Where materials and Jacks ships are commonly stored. It also contains a forge, with hammer and anvil, blast furnace and a salvage smelter. The barn was a late addition to the homestead. When Jack got into crafting he decided he needed a dual purpose are to store and craft. The Result was acquiring cheap slavage, melting it down and putting up a recycled steel structure.
3.) The Enclave: A small circular structure where Jack goes to meditate or train with fellow FU's. It contains a library, central chamber, a few meditation chambers and a Kitchen. It's made of stone. Fire pit is to the side but smaller. When Jack came into the force he wanted a seperate place to train and stor his knowledge. The Enclave was added after the Barn and aserved as peacful place to do his work. The walls are lined with old books and Datacrons he's copied or Collected. The meditation Chambers are all dark and dimly lit by lanterns. Of course a kitchen was added for the hungry. The structure is made from stone.
4.) Housing: this is housing for various guests or Family & Clan members who choose to live and help out on the homestead. Prefab made of durasteel so it's a bit more solid. The housing quarters afford people verything they need. Beds, a common area, a Kitchen as well as refresher facilities. Set up with the common area and kitchen in the center.
5.) The well: It's a well where the water supply comes from. It was an old well that was re-dug by Vassara. When Jack inhabited the Homestead he took to the well and expanded it, adding a pipe network to the grounds to funnel water where it needs to go.
6.) Roads & Fields: Basic dirt roads between sections of the homestead. Fields where crops are grown as well. The most prominent of Jacks crops happen to be Wheat, Vegetables and some rarer species of herbs and fauna. There is nothing significant as of yet grown on the farm, just your basic foodstuffs.
7.) The River: A small river turns to a stream which passes through the property. The river is clear and sparkly. Normally fish inhabit the river during the hotter seasons and then migrate to larger bodies of water during the slower seasons. There is bridge of hand hewn wooden beams built over the River where folks can cross.
8.) Property fence line: Right now a basic rough shod of stone walls. Tall enough to see impede the flow of bad folks,but low enough to see outside the farmstead.- color Black
9.) Autoturrets: Added to protect the Homestead. The last edition to the Defence line. With the rise of the Deathwatch and feral beasts prowling the countryside, Jack saw fit to protect his property with a little added PEW PEW! Not terribly strong, but enough to put holes in most unwelcome visitors.
Description:
When Vassara Raxis first settled on Mandalore she bought a small homestead with fifty acres outside of Kedlabe. Back then it was simple. Two fields, a river and a well. She lived on Mandalore for a brief time whilst she served under the Red Legion, stashing her valuables and Datacrons all about the place. During a Raid on an Underground stations she was killed, protecting the personal files of many many Underground agents.
When Jack returned to Mandalore after learning of his mother and her death he assumed control of the homestead. The first crops were sold to procure funds to expand the settlement. When homestead passed down to Jack whom added fifty acres and several other features. The Fence line was upgraded as well as some turrets added for protection from bandits and feral creatures.
Then a Barn and Enclave were constructed, allowing Jack to do more than just farm. On the Homestead he crafts, lives, farms and trains when he is not out answering the call of various folks around the Galaxy.
Considering the plans Jack had for the future he added extra defences around the perimeter. The housing was the last addition. Hoping to start his own clan one day it was cobbled together from a heap of salvage. Jack spent a while installing everything himself, using recycled durasteel plates and old tools.
The fields were re-tilled and he sold his first rotation of crops. A few extra plots were constructed for the addition of new crops. He isn't sure just yet what he wants to grow, but in keeping with tradition he suspects it will be force trees one day.
History: See above
Intent: To flesh out Jacks place to live. To serve as a clan center for Jacks future Clan.
