The Home Base & Stores for Tracer Bullet Group
Score 636
12/17/24The Tracer Bullets Warehouse is a sprawling, converted industrial space that functions both as the team's base of operations and as a collection of diverse businesses, each tailored to the specialties of its members. Situated in a gritty, neon-lit part of Seattle, this warehouse is a blend of high-tech sophistication and practical functionality, a place where the team lives, works, and runs their various ventures.
Exterior and Structure
From the outside, the warehouse looks like any other in the district—large, nondescript, and weathered by time. However, the towering neon sign above the door bearing the words "Tracer Bullets" in glowing, sharp-edged letters gives it away as the home of a unique and skilled crew. The building is large and rectangular, with a steel frame and reinforced walls. It sits amidst other similarly functional buildings but stands out because of its constant buzz of activity.
Inside, the first floor is an open-plan space designed to accommodate both the team’s operations and their businesses. The warehouse has been partitioned cleverly, with different areas designated for each member’s work while maintaining an industrial-chic aesthetic with exposed beams, polished concrete floors, and large windows letting in city lights.
Key Areas and Businesses
Harley’s Mechanic and Body Detailing Shop (Southern Portion)
The southern half of the warehouse is taken up by Harley’s shop, which is both a mechanic’s garage and a custom vehicle detailing studio. Large, half-finished vehicles and parts of various drones fill the area. The shop hums with the sounds of welding, grinding, and mechanical work, with large exhaust fans keeping the air clear of fumes. At one end, a massive garage door opens to allow in larger vehicles, while the other side holds display racks of custom vehicle parts, upgraded tires, and engines. A workbench filled with tools, spare parts, and half-assembled drones runs down the length of the wall. Harley’s presence is evident here; it's his kingdom, and everything runs smoothly.
The Central Kitchen / Food Court
At the heart of the warehouse, serving as the central meeting point, is the Food Court/Kitchen area. The kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, but the layout is more informal, with a series of food stalls offering a mix of local Seattle delicacies and high-tech, nutrient-optimized meals for those with demanding lifestyles. There are communal tables where the team gathers for meals, but also quiet corners for one-on-one discussions. The center serves as a neutral ground for both team business and personal moments, complete with a barista station where Digit can be found at times tinkering with his gadgets or enjoying a cup of espresso.
Calvin and Jennifer’s Talismonger Shop (Western Wall)
Along the western wall, Calvin and Jennifer’s Talismonger Shop occupies a large section of the warehouse. The store is a sanctuary of arcane energy, filled with enchanted objects, talismans, and artifacts for sale. Shimmering crystals, mystic weapons, and protective charms hang from every corner of the shop. The atmosphere is both serene and charged with magical energy. Calvin's knowledge is reflected in the displays of rare and powerful items, while Jennifer, always present in the shop, runs the counter and interacts with customers. The shop has a secretive air about it, with magical wards subtly woven into the space. In the backroom, hidden shelves of even rarer and more dangerous magical artifacts are stored.
Hobbes’ Gun, Archery Shop, and Range (Eastern Wall)
The entire eastern wall of the warehouse is dedicated to Hobbes' Gun and Archery Shop, which also doubles as a small range for testing weapons and bowfire. The shelves are lined with high-tech firearms, crossbows, and an array of custom-made bows and arrows. The range area is equipped with reinforced targets that can take high-powered shots, and a few dummies for practicing bow skills. The space is highly functional with a strong focus on both practicality and style. Hobbes occasionally gives weapons lessons here, as well as fitting customers with the right gear. It’s the place to find both deadly firearms and the more elegant, but still lethal, bows that Hobbes is known for.
Tarry’s Boutique (Western Wall, Near the Entrance)
Tarry's Boutique is the first shop upon entering the western section of the warehouse, right next to the main entrance. It's a stylish space filled with accessories, premade outfits, and unique fashion items. The boutique focuses on a high-end blend of street fashion and functional gear, often tailored to fit the lifestyles of those who need to blend in with the crowds or stand out in the streets. Tarry personally curates the collections, ensuring everything from cut dresses to combat-ready jackets is on display. In the back, there's a secretive room containing a large tank used for molding forms of people—perfect for a high-end clientele that requires customized fits for both personal and professional use. The backroom is a heavily protected space, as the equipment can be used for various, more clandestine purposes.
Digit’s Electronics Shop (Between Talismongers and Harley’s)
Nestled between the Talismongers Shop and Harley’s mechanic space is Digit's Electronics Shop, a compact but high-tech shop filled with everything from custom cyberdecks to cutting-edge electronics and repairs. Digit specializes in designing and selling personalized hacking tools, from custom AR glasses to unique interfaces for Matrix access. The shop also serves as a place where the team can go to pick up or repair their digital equipment. Hidden within the shop are various tools used for digital espionage, and Digit is always tinkering with something new. There’s a small display of old-school electronics and vintage tech for sale, reflecting Digit's personal hobby of collecting.
Second Floor Living Spaces
The second floor is where the team resides, providing a private area away from the constant activity of the warehouse below. The upper level is designed like a loft, with individual sleeping quarters, living areas, and a shared space for recreation and downtime.
- Calvin and Jennifer’s Suite: Calvin and his wife, Jennifer, have a spacious room with an adjacent study and magic workshop, filled with books and arcane items.
- Hobbes’ Loft: Hobbes’ personal space is filled with weaponry and armor, some of it on display, while the rest is tucked away in custom racks. He also has a small archery area where he practices in his downtime.
- Tarry’s Room: Tarry has a secluded area accessed through a small vent-like door behind the Boutique. This hidden, private room is where she goes to retreat, reflecting both her need for quiet solitude and her more complex nature as a vampire. It's filled with personal items, clothing collections, and workspaces, and is a peaceful sanctuary away from the bustle of the warehouse.
- Harley’s Room: Harley has a cozy nook filled with tech books, brewing equipment, and all the things that make him feel at home. There’s always a vehicle project waiting for him to finish, and his personal workshop is up here as well.
- Digit’s Lair: Digit’s area is lined with screens, a bed, and enough tech to give anyone a headache. His lair is constantly buzzing with data feeds, network signals, and the hum of the Matrix.
The second floor offers a break from the chaos below and serves as the crew's sanctuary, giving each of them the space they need to unwind or focus on their personal projects.
The Tracer Bullets Warehouse is more than just a base; it’s a functional, living space that caters to the wide array of skills and businesses the team runs, all while providing a tight-knit environment for their family dynamic.
