Seng Karash

Seng Karash is the principle city of the Orian system and home to around two hundred thousand employees. Though the Clan has facilities on Sepros and Tarthos, the majority of the Dlarit Corporations civilian employees can be found on Aeotheran in this city, and to a lesser extent the nearby Amphor Colony.

The city of Seng Karash was built shortly after the Clans arrival in the Orian system, to provide a home and processing centre for the Dlarit Corporations carbon mining operations on the planet Aeotheran. The city is owned by the corporation, and comes officially under the authority of the Governor of Aeotheran, usually the Quaestor of Ludo Kressh.

Because the city has not grown up naturally over a period of time, but was purpose built by the Dlarit Corporation, it has been designed in a regimented manner with separate districts designated for different purposes.

All areas of life in the city from accommodation to transport to commercial and leisure facilities are owned and run by the Corporation.

In an attempt to segregate the Clan military from the civilian population, Seng Karash is policed only by members of the Dlarit Security Force.

The Starport

The Starport is a large modern facility in the southern part of the city. It serves both passenger transport and freight use, shipping both commercial goods and resources into the city, and of course transporting the processed carbon out. The spaceport is not used for military craft, for which separate facilities are available. Immigration here is strict, and only official visitors with permits, Dlarit employees and their families are admitted to the city.

The Residential District

The north and east sides of the city house the Dlarit corporation personnel and their families. Ownership of property is rare here, instead most of the population live in pre fabricated rented accommodation provided by the corporation, size of dwelling and facilities being governed by ones status in the corporation. Medical facilities are provided locally for the employees and an efficient public transport system exists to take them to other sectors.

The Commercial and Leisure District

The western side of the city hosts the commercial and recreational faculties for two hundred thousand employees. A selection of bars, clubs, casinos, sporting arenas, shops and markets selling everything from food, drink, clothing and exotic goods shipped into the spaceport from all corners of the universe. All facilities are owned and operated by the Corporation and private business is heavily discouraged. Though a blind eye is usually turned to the black market of goods, as it has been deemed unprofitable to attempt to eradicate this fully, steps are taken to at least limit this to a minimum.

Towering over the Leisure District is the newly built Dystopia, Seng Karash's fastest growing nightspot.

The Industrial District

The eastern side of the city hosts the carbon processing plants into which raw carbon ore is brought in from the Dlarit corporation mines scattered around Aeotheran, and pure carbon is sent to the spaceport for transport across the galaxy.

The Government District

In the centre of the city lies the Government district, containing the City Hall and the central Police Headquarters.

The City Hall is a modern ten storey building, and home to the civilian administration, lead by Mayor Tlairis Jangar, who manages the day to day running of the city and answers directly to the Governor, freeing up the latter for more important issues.

The Police Headquarters is a large compound with accommodation for four thousand officers, with training and exercise facilities and administration and forensic science, as well as the city penitentiary where suspected criminals are held awaiting trial and deportation. Naturally the Corporation does not waste resources incarcerating prisoners long term but simply dismisses and expels them from the Orian system along with their families.

Smaller police facilities are found in other sectors of the city for local enforcement and response.

The Hydroponic Facility

One of the key needs for Clan Naga Sadow and Dlarit was to develop self sufficiency. With this in mind before the pre fabricated city of Seng Karash was created, an immense crater was hollowed out of the earth, in which was build the Hydroponic Facility, a series of vast farms where food is grown and livestock is raised under artificial light, and water is extracted and purified, both for the citizens of Seng Karash and to feed the men and women of the Dlarit military. Though more exotic foodstuffs are shipped into the Orian system, the majority of the systems food orginates here.

Because the city of Seng Karash was built over the Hydroponic Facility it is the most protected part of the city, ensuring that in the event of the system being under attack, or in the event of civil unrest, the tunnels leading to the facility can be sealed and protected, ensuring the continuity of the food supply.

The Marakith Skyhook

Above the Government District an immense skyhook hovers, supported by its own experimental repulsor engines. This is the official residence of the Governor of Aeotheran and his staff, with hangars available for small to medium ships. Despite its size the skyhook boasts discrete lighting, compensating for the shadow such a large floating structure ought to cast over the city.

Access to the residence is highly restricted, visitors only by appointment when summoned by the Governor. These visitors are further restricted to only a small portion of the skyhook designed for official entertaining and accommodation for visiting diplomats and business associates.

The rest of the skyhook is in every way out of bounds, even to the Dlarit Police forces and Mayor. Within security and maintenance is purely droid operated, for this is the home of the Dark Jedi members of House Ludo Kressh. Along with the apartments and offices of the Quaestor, Aedile, and House Envoy are rooms decorated for the personal taste of each member, training facilities, laboratories, recreational facilities, and a private hanger for members ships.

The security of the Marakith Skyhook, or simply Marakith as it is known the members, is essential to the House and Clan. The official reason for the high security is that it contains many of the senior directors of the Dlarit Corporation and it is for their safety.

In fact it is to conceal the presence and nature of the Clan from the Aeotheran population. Though Clan members do visit the public areas of Marakith the wearing of robes or the carrying of light sabers in these areas is forbidden for obvious reasons.

Rumour has it that if necessary Marakith can leave the atmosphere in an emergency and has basic hyperspace capability. This drastic action would only be used in the likelihood of the planet Aeotheran being overrun by a hostile force. It is also rumoured to have extensive defence capabilities though the nature of these are highly classified.
