A Star Defender's Ship: First Floor


The first floor of Isaac's ship.

I thought that, for further understanding of the Star Defenders, it's a good idea to take a look at the inside of the typical Star Defender space ship. (For you Dittotopians: Yes, this is the inside of Isaac's ship.)

Keep in mind that, from the outside, the ship looks quite small. But the inside is very spacious. This is due to special technology of altering perceptions of space. There is a second floor and a basement too.

Now for the floor plan key.

Chandelier Welcome Hall (magenta): The entrance (and exit) of the ship. Each Star Defender has his/her own chandelier hanging from the ceiling of this room.

Hallways (cyan): Just regular hallways. Nothing special about these.

Bathroom Modules (yellow): There are 17 bathroom modules on the first floor, each with a toilet and a sink. Transportation to these modules is special: Across the entire first floor are teleportation pads (indicated by yellow circles). Each is connected to a unique bathroom module. Once a person steps on one and is teleported to the module, that pad becomes inactive so that others cannot enter until the person inside the module steps on the exit pad.

Dining Room (dark red): Where Star Defenders eat, especially when one has visitors on the ship.

Kitchen (bright red): With a fridge, stove, oven, and all sorts of kitchen necessities, the Kitchen is the place to cook on-board.

Picture Hall (teal): A hallway adorned with pictures of the Star Defender's choosing.

TV Rooms (blue): Each TV room has a large TV with all sorts of video game systems available. All the rooms share an electronic database of videos, DVD's, and video games through which one can borrow one with a few touches on a touch-screen in each room.

Concert Hall (purple): Where musical and theatrical performances are held, or where rehearsals for such performances occur. The reason such a thing is on a spaceship is as such: Performers and audiences from across the universe can board a ship, which will fly to a place so that, by the time-space continuum, no time passes from wherever any given audience member's home is when he/she returns.

Private Practice Rooms (gold): Soundproof rooms for individual (or small group) music practice. Each has a piano, a tuner, a metronome, and a speaker system for playing recordings. There is also an electronic database of songs connected to the speaker system that one can play whenever he/she wishes.

Library (bright green): Much of the library is just a whole bunch of tables and comfy chairs and couches for reading and relaxation. Book borrowing is done through electronic databases. There are also several computers for internet access. The atmosphere has a special noise reducer that keeps any noise within the library very low.

Private Study Rooms (dark green): Includes a table, computer with Internet access and color printer, the electronic book database, rigid chairs, comfy chairs, and newspapers. These rooms are soundproof.

Slide Hall (dark blue): Actually, this hall can be used for whatever the Star Defender wishes. Isaac has set up a little playground novelty called Random Slides. One climbs up the ladder and then slides down, but the actual slide changes every time one uses the slide.

The rectangles on the bottom are stairways. The one on the left goes to the 2nd floor; the one on the right goes to the basement.

So, there you have it. An inside look at the inside of Isaac's ship. Coming soon: the 2nd floor!
