Sanctuary

==Sanctuary==Under Construction

The space station Sanctuary is the main orbital defense platform under construction above New Tython. It is a Cardan I-class space station.

Construction

Under the House Odan-Urr Summitt Benedict Williams was appointed the New administrator of the Space Station

With the Invasion of New Tython now over, Grand Master Darth Ashen has ordered the construction of a space station in orbit of the planet. Ostensibly, this has been provided to facilitate with Brotherhood occupation of the planet, and to help enforce Brotherhood dominion of the surrounding space. It is also expected to boost the local economy, by employing a large number of the population, providing an orbital spaceport hub, and ensuring the security of the planet against pirates and raiders.

However, the space station itself is a Cardan I-class space station, and while it can hold its own against a small fleet of fighters and corvettes, it is too weak to serve as a serious defensive measure for the planet.

The space station requires a medium sized crew of 1200 people, who are almost exclusively New Tythonian settlers and Jedi, and it employs 2000 people who live and work to a rotating roster in order to allow everyone some time back home.

The station also has a capacity of 300 visitors, minus a small allotment for the spouses of its near permanent crew, who live on the space station most of the year due to their crucial positions.

Part of this crew allotment also includes a small, temporary team of trainers from the Shadow Academy, who have been commissioned by Headmaster Taigikori Aybara Dupar to ensure the New Tythonian settlers learn how to maintain and repair the space station, as many of New Tython's own engineers are not accustomed to working with orbital platforms.

The construction of the space station is being supervised by Clan Arcona, who are currently accountable for it being ready in time for a ceremonial visit by the Seneschal, Orv Dessrx d'Tana, to officially commission the space station to operational status.

The space station will be defended by its standard armaments of 2 light turbolaser batteries and 2 point defense light ion cannon batteries. In addition, Odan-Urr's squadron of Eta-2 Actis-class light interceptors will be based on the space station. Clan Arcona has left the Nebula-class Star Destroyer Invicta, its flagship during the Invasion, at New Tython to "support construction and ensure security".
