Maintenance Bay 54

### Description

Appearing distinctly different the much of Neotropolis, the smooth steel walls may appear spartan and out of place. However, behind those walls lie what can best be described as a nightclub, catering to robotic, synthetic and other non-organic clientele. It both is and is operated by what appears to be an unusual instance of a typical virtual assistant ROSHIE. While at times displaying a bias against organic life, typically most event patrons are allowed, providing the right credentials are displayed.

### Activities

Operating as one of the premier destinations at Neotropolis, Maintenance Bay 54 creates a solid entertainment roster ranging from DJs, live music, burlesque or other performances. During the daytime it creates a more subdued experience, focusing on a more lounge like experience. Maintenance Bay 54 is known for having some of the best cocktails in the quadrant, offering unique creations such as the Neuromancer, Asimov, Electric Sheep or the Neotropolis Sunrise.

### Access Chips

Admission to Maintenance Bay 54 is governed by the possession of a specific access chip which can be earned during the event by voluenteering, or completing specific missions. Access chips may also be obtained pre event. Chips come in several colors, relating to access prioritizations. Simply put, as the space becomes busier higher access level chips are required. The lowest, and typically easiest color to obtain is red, with blue granting the highest access. Green is mid tier access. Posession of a chip typically allows for a +1 emotional support human. The exception to this would be due to Jane's involvement with MB54, Fringers are typically admitted regardless of access chip status.

### Missions

Several unique missions may be obtained from MB54, typically resulting in earning an access chip. These may vary as the event story progresses, however, several fixed missions are also in place. These include the delivery of 4.5 Kg of crystalized di-hydrogen monoxide, or a liter of nanite suspension fluid with a minimum of 20% C2H5OH.

### Lore

The space deems itself a safe haven for non-organic beings, and as such has a strict policy against individuals who seek to harm such clientele, within or outside of the confines of the law.

MB54 cocktails typically contain repair nanites tuned for inorganic systems, enabling it to function effectively as a maintenance facility. As such, they do warn organics of the potential negative effects of consuming such substances, which can result in a number of negative effects ranging from structural reconfiguration to system failure. Most complained about, however, is the spontaneous repair of exterior holes. Apparently organics like their holes. Access chips, do serve as a means to prevent such unfortunate results.

MB54 tends to remain neutral in most inter-faction conflicts and is on friendly terms with the leadership of both Helix and Endline, clearing up an accusation that the access chips provide ways to hack into organic's limbic systems. A strained relationship would be the best way to describe MB54's stance toward Sentinels.

Originally, MB54 served as a repair node for mining and reclamation drones, as part of the planet-wide terraforming operations. After a devastating explosion in the facility, it was seemingly rebuilt and repurposed into the state it currently is. Still connected to terraforming operations, MB54 does not leave the planet but instead simply moves the access point from the city of Neotropolis back underground.
