S.T.O.R.A.G.E.

Arclight S.T.O.R.A.G.E. Facilities
Standard Template Operations and Research Apparatus for Gnomish Enterprises, or STORAGE for short, is a void-storage facility housed within Arclight HQ.

The facility is three stories high, and entirely underground, below the bunk rooms for Arclight personnel.

Powered by a Mechagonian fusion reactor, it has the capacity to store items by splitting reality into different frequencies, so that potentially millions of items can occupy the same point in space.

Utilising Ethereal technology, Molly Cogsprocket created a larger version, after performing hundreds of tests on a smaller unit labelled Baggage. Using this experience, Molly was able to create a version with a hundred-thousand times the capacity.

Each frequency can be accessed via a numeric system of seven digits, the first of which can go from 1-9, the remainder can go from 0-9. Each frequency is a de facto separate reality, and no two frequencies can overlap, nor interact with another. When a frequency is not in use, it cannot be accessed, and if there is no power to the facility or the control panel, or if it is simply turned off, the frequencies are locked.

In order for Arclight personnel to not become trapped inside a frequency, a special harness was developed by Molly which anchors the wearer to their home reality, that way, they can shift between frequencies without needing to leave the area, or if the machine loses power, they won't be trapped inside the frequency.

STORAGE was developed to house artefacts, dangerous entities, magical items, dangerous technology, volatile or unstable elements, and scientific research, each one listed as an ACP, Arclight Containment Protocol.

Only Arclight has access to STORAGE, but other organisations have been permitted to use the facility, these include SI:7, Gnomeregan Covert Ops, Gnomish Military Forces, and private entities, providing they pay.
