On the southern coast a short walk from both Millstone Village and The Ruins, a small hump of land hunkers against the loch's stiff breeze. It at first seems to be the average esker or drumlin, just another patch of land showing sign of past glaciation. Upon closer inspection, one realizes there is a thick and heavy oak door in the hillside itself, half-disguised by overgrowth from the hillock it sits within.

Disguised in this way from any non-Salsolan eyes, the Storage unit is better described as an underground bunker than it is a shed or a house. Due to the nature of being enclosed on all sides by earth, it is exceptionally good at maintaining an even, low temperature, perfect for the storing of treated or preserved foods. Sectioned by category, it is an orderly, monitored affair.

Salsola's storage unit is a single room no larger than twelve by twelve feet (3.6 meters x 3.6 meters). The pack uses this area to store public goods such as dishes, dried plants, or anything else they're comfortable sharing. There are sturdy wooden shelving units in the storage shed, leftover from the humans, as well as Luperci-crafted cupboards, crates, and barrels for storage. There isn’t any lighting to be had within the underground bunker, and one must typically leave the door open or light a candle to rift through the items stored towards the back of the room.


1.  Items and Use

  • All members are encouraged to give items over to Salsola as a whole. Placing things of practical use within the storage shed is seen as a gain for Salsola, and can result in positive opportunities for your character.
  • Members are free to use these items however they see fit. Of course, excessive "take" without much "give" in return (i.e., if your character continually loots the storage shed, yet does not provide anything of value in return) may result in consequences if discovered by the leadership.
  • Salsola adheres to the Tagging System -- pay attention to the tags, as they designate what an item can be used for.
  • Please update the item quantity when you have made use of it or add to it. If you do not want to update the Wiki or cannot, please let us know to update it.

2.  Inventory

Note: Categories, groups, and items within are alphabetized.

  • Not all items on this inventory list are actually stored in Storage itself, and are listed here more to have a common place of reference rather than having to sift through multiple pages. Some items may be found where they are most often used, or, are provided better storage for (ex. the carts would be better stored in one of the barns in Marrgerd or Grimrun).
