Drynwyn's Tower

Drynwyn’s Tower, standing higher than any other object on the mountain with twelve floors, was once the headquarters of the elite Battleteam of House Acclivis Draco, Drynwyn's Flame. When Drynwyn’s Flame was dissolved in 25 ABY, after Quaestor Mune Metsukai Isradia stepped down at the orders of Consul Dakari Tamalar, the Tower was abandoned. Numerous mountain barbarians raided the tower and infested it, dirtying the once beautiful marble floors, and staining the tapestries. Shortly thereafter, it was reopened and the members of Drynwyn’s Flame, led by RevengeX Palpatine forced the natives to flee. When the Battleteam was closed again in 26 ABY, Quaestor RevengeX made sure to have security outposts installed around Kilgore Ridge to ensure the Tower’s safekeeping.

Recently, Quaestors Timbal Palpatine and Tra'an Reith have been seen going in and out of the Tower. What they do in there is unknown, it could be anything from conducting gruesome experiments to having quality time with Twi'leks. They refused to comment.

Structure

Basements Cresh, Besh, and Aurek

The lowest three basements can be used as a bunker during an attack, but most of the time, they are used as storage space and interrogation rooms. If a being is killed during interrogation, their body is immediately shipped down to Basement Cresh where it will be forced into a cremation chamber. Dark Jedi use the Force to turn the ashes into a stone, which workers use to help with construction projects.

Each level is divided into four equally sized rooms, accessible only by using an archaic key made from gold and electrum. (The key has been handed down through the generations of Tetrarchs. When the Battleteam is closed, the key falls into the hands of the Quaestor of House Acclivis Draco.) The walls and floor are dark stone, damp from the moisture hidden deep inside the ground. Few lights hang from the stone ceiling, causing a sense of isolation and heavy gloom to creep across every person who enters.

Upper Basement

The upper basement, unlike the lower three, has a carpeted floor and many lights to illuminate the hundreds of crates held in storage there. The floor is in the shape of an equilateral pentagon and security cameras hang from the ceiling at each corner.

Most of the crates contain wines and liquors, but because the Force cannot be utilized there, Clan Elders reason that one of the crates contains an Ysalamir. Nobody is quite sure which crate contains the animal, and how it survives, and nobody wants to go through all of the crates.

Kilgore Assembly Hall and War Room

Similar in construction to the Hall of the Rising Dragon in the Dragons Citadel, Kilgore Hall is three floors high and contains a large platform on the ground level. Like the Hall of the Rising Dragon, each floor has a small balcony with chairs for extra seating. In the case of an emergency, Kilgore Hall’s removable chairs can be stacked and the floor used as a large sleeping area.

The entrance to Kilgore Hall is a large steel door with the Battleteam’s last motto etched into it: By the tip of our blade - light is pierced and darkness does flow.

The War Room in Drynwyn’s Tower,currently outdated, contains a circular map of the region that can track the progress of battle with an error margin of only 0.01%. The warriors and strategists of Acclivis Draco once used this war room frequently, but since the dissolution of Drynwyn’s Flame, it has been, for the most part, abandoned and left to rot.

Five terminals, with near unrestricted HoloNet access, lie on two sides of the rectangular room. An amphitheatre-style seating area surrounding the holographic maps used to be crowded, but since then, a small layer of dust has accumulated.

Observatory

Located on the topmost level of the building, the twelfth floor, this unique observatory serves as a place for exploration and study. The Observatory contains three large telescopes and several computer terminals for analysis. Each telescope is able to swivel a full 360 degrees. With simple walls and floors of wood and metal, the Observatory looks simple, but is, in actuality, a very complex work of precise engineering.

It is mainly used by the Dark Jedi to study the planet’s geology, climate, and heavens.

It is believed that one, very small, artificial satellite has been released into orbit around Antenora for further analysis of the planet at the beginning of 21 ABY.

Quarters

In addition to the usual living spaces at Lawakiro Dormitories on the Northern Oasis Campus, members of Drynwyn’s Flame have keys to the dormitories inside Drynwyn’s Tower.

Similar to Lawakiro Dormitories’ rooms, each Member Dormitory contains one bed, one dresser, and one desk. These minimal furnishings encourage members to venture outside of their rooms.

In contrast to the Member Dormitories on the third floor, the Tetrarch Living Space on the tenth floor is much larger and extravagant. The area is divided into three sections: a work area, a bedroom, and a refresher.

The work area is also where the Tetrarch meets people and holds small discussions. On two wooden bookshelves near the large desk, thousands of files and records lay waiting to be picked and read. In fact, these files contain some of the secrets that have been passed down from Tetrarch-to-Tetrarch, but a small layer of dust has formed over them recently.
