Sai'Tan: Onsite

[Nevian]

Aboard the USS Allen, an Oberth class on loan from the Engineer Corps, in a moderately comfortable senior officer quarters.
Smaller quarters would have been satisfactory but protocol stated his rank rated larger accommodations, he had politely declined a rating as personal assistant and had gotten to work reviewing Starbase 42's schematics and station logs.

An old style standard station of obsolete design, built in place with from local materials cycled through large industrial sized replicators.. tritainium keel and duranium lattice foam composites for bulkheads, all arranged about a central command and utility core giving the whole an appearance of a squat upside down waste receptacle on a spindle with outlaying flattened pods serving as cargo warehouse.

Thee shutdown hadn't been a clean or anything approaching a mothballing effort, the last crew had simply pulled the plug on the reactor core and evacuated at a painful 1.2 warp to the rear support group during the Dominion's attack on Sector zero zero.
Since that time, scavengers had been at the facility like large vermin, taking hull plates from outer bulkhead leave the whole station open to vacuum, the computer core rudely cut out.. the list of requirements to make the station minimally habitable had went on for pages.

His initial review had been marginally above building a new station in place. The main super structure was still in place and as there was no power, any of the missing supports could be tractored and probably fused in place, or simply recycled and rebuilt.

Onsite:

Foamed aluminum with carbon lattice fibers.. oddly enough readily produced from the industrial replicators fed by asteroid supplied mass banks. For a quick patch of the external bulkheads before layering on the tritainium outer hull, the station could be pressurized and the majority of internal layouts could be started.
EPS conduits, fiber optics and secondary systems could be patched in along the remainder of the station's framing, artificial gravity and inertial compensator grids supplied by tertiary fusion generators ...

Sai'tan had begun a 22 hour work day cycle upon arrival in system, taking only time for personal needs and a daily hour of deep meditation. His time and energy spent with focused efficiency, the bodily needs supplemented by nutrition bars and chamomile tea, he tasked the Engineer Corps of the Allen with a difficult task and they met it with enthusiasm...




Section by section, power and life support restored, the skeleton of SB 42 starts to fill out week by week..

You...er...you've slightly jumped the gun. Games not started just yet, but when it does we'll have a main thread to post in. This place is more for back ground relfections from your character, private posts that don't slide into the plot easily. Maybe Sai's wedding or a humorous meeting between he a Bolian book seller? Who knows.

Alright, I can manage something personalized.
