Steelstrike Garrison also known as “The Rock” is the home of House Caliburnus. Nestled deep in the Phiri mountain range, this secret facility functions as the base of operations for the House.
History
Steelstrike Garrison was initially found by Imperial scouts shortly after the arrival of Clan Scholae Palatinae on Seraph. At the time of the finding, it was a mountain with deep caves that the aboriginal population used for shelter and worship. The aborigines aggressively attacked any Imperial scouts that closed in on the mountain. Under order of the Consul Thran Occasus-Palpatine, the aborigines were wiped out and the mountain cave system taken into Imperial control.
Shortly afterwards, construction began. The mountain was hollowed out on the inside, leaving several meters of rock as outer protection and structural support. Afterwards, different levels were built into it to form the Headquarters of House Caliburnus and their fleet.
Unlike its Ptolomean predecessor, the Obsidian Palace, the headquarters for Caliburnus on Seraph are no longer the opulent quarters for a tyrant. The Steelstrike Garrison was built for practicality and function rather than being a lavish show of the House's wealth.
Location
Steelstrike Garrison Location
Steelstrike Garrison is located within the Phiri mountain range in central Elaya. The closest city of note is Azatra.
The Garrison is built into the side of a mountain, making use of much of the existing cave and tunnel systems left behind by the aboriginal people that had once called the mountain home.
Its location is strategic, being within easy reach of the Monolith. Thus, it would likely be Caliburnus rising to the occasion should the Monolith and the Clan Summit require protection from any incoming threat or attack.
Layout
The Rock consists of 5 levels, laid out as follows:
Level 1: Hangar and armory. This is where fighter squadrons not currently on deployment are stationed to protect Seraph. There is a large retractable opening at the bottom of the mountain that opens to allow starfighters in and out of the base. The cave system behind the hangar offers secure storage for fuel and weapons, repair parts for ships and vehicles, and a droid service bay.
Level 2: Personnel quarters for house members, barracks for ground forces, pilots, and officers, lavatories, and the cafeteria. The cave system provides ample storage areas for provisions and fresh water. This helps protect the Garrison against any siege trying to cut off supplies.
Level 3: A high-ceilinged level that serves as a training ground for members of House Caliburnus. This area contains training droids used for weapon training, climbing walls, ropes hanging from the ceiling, weights, a full-sized running track, a large swimming pool, and an obstacle course.
Level 4: The War Room: Top Secret and inaccessible except to high-level members of the House and Clan. The adjacent cavern serves as a secure bunker to protect important personnel and valuable artifacts in the House's possession.
Level 5: The Quaestor’s Office and personal chambers. The personal chambers are further back in the natural cavern space, thus protecting the Quaestor against possible attacks from outside. It also provides ample housing for some of the current Quaestor's pets.
