Novakid Delegate Enclave

Novakid are such a joy - yet their flightiness and poor impulse control do make life challenging at times. The Novakid delegation, bearing the intrinsically typical traits of their race, eventually gave up on trying to organise builders or send plans over. Instead, they asked me to take control of what their enclave would look like.

I must confess some personal feelings towards how it looks. When I was still a student at the Terrene Protectorate, my girlfriend would often describe to me in detail how her childhood home looked, and how she might one day decorate a home of her own. So in her honour, I did just that.

Shadow Delegate Enclave

Oh boy... I could not convince any of my crew that the Shadow weren't dangerous, and ended up taking time away from the building project to find a settlement of Shadow folk.

Once there, it was an uphill struggle to not only interpret the hand signs they use to communicate, but also to get them to understand my mission with the New Protectorate. Having further pressing matters, I had to transition two of my crew to deal with the Shadow folk which was a battle in and of itself.

I shall tell you this, gentle reader - the Shadow folk are reclusive, cautious, and reluctant in all things. They are somehow able to consume Boltbubls and Diodia - something I thought was the province of Glitch alone - but these seem to be consumed without any processing and keep the sedentary Shadow going for some time. Unsurprisingly, they are distressed by bright lights, and they are not enamoured by beds.

Designing their Enclave was a challenge, to say the least. It follows the general pattern of the other Enclaves - Teleporter and entryway; conference room; study, breakout room, dining room, and bedrooms. The main difference is the two shrine rooms. Their religion is still one I'm trying to work out, as it is among many things they choose not to share about their culture.

Despite their reluctance to even be here, I'm still confident I can impress upon them the importance of our mission; the need for their representation; and the valued counsel they'll to the mission.

Administration Offices

Purchase orders, contracts, shipping manifests, insurance, catering, certifications... There is a mountain of paperwork that comes with running the New Galactic Protectorate.

For a while I tried to handle it all myself, then was forced to delegate out to my crew. But when they struggled to keep up, I had to accept that this was a job for a small army of specialists. So I built a set of offices to accommodate my new admin workers, and put the call out for workers.

I'm sure you can imagine how it felt to see so many responses come back with a form of "I have experience working for the Terrene Protectorate"...

Eat 'n' Chill

Here at the top of the Galactic Protectorate building is a place for staff and students alike to have a bite to eat, relax and catch up with friends.
