Strange items have been found left behind, sometimes with no notes or evidence as to why.
Some very rare caches tell an odd, mysterious, or dark story. A cache can be thought of as an extended, localized “ships locker” containing not just regular useful items for a Scout but gear such as Local garb and data, local system info, and lists of useful contacts, resources, and problems if any are present.Ĭaches are always placed full and pristine, though they might not be that way when the Travellers come upon them. They are sealed against the environment, accessed by a small airlock if necessary, and store materials that an individual or wandering team of Scouts far from home would find supportive, or invaluable.Īlmost every cache offers food, medical supplies, scanning and detection gear, local system information and weapons to visiting Scouts. Most caches are the size of a large shipping container.
It could be sunk into the side of an asteroid in the outsystem belt, or just floating in space coated with emission-absorbing composites to make it necessary to know its precise location. An IISS cache might be buried or located in a cave in a remote location on the undeveloped shirtsleeve world, or dug into the regolith of a cold rockball. They are meant to provide resupply and touchpoints for scout activity “far from home,” and the IISS has been placing them for centuries.Ĭonsider a remote system along the frontiers of the Imperium, or outside that boundary where Scouts might someday tread. These repositories are protected and hidden from prying or serendipitous eyes, placed far away from IISS logistical centers where Scouts range from. The Imperial Interstellar Scout Service places hidden caches of mission-relevant materials throughout the frontiers and beyond to support its various missions.
