Rooftop Helipad – Cyberpunk Air Taxi
Board
Map scenario ideas:
– Daring escape via helicopter
– Special operation: Land helicopter and assault/infiltrate
– Run the day-to-day operations of a private air-taxi firm on the brink of financial ruin
Location details for DM’s:
These are totally optional, but can help a DM in need of a location on the fly. No pun intended.
Slick AirTaxi’s is a small company providing premium rides to corporate clients in need of a discrete option.
Elevator entrance
The players will usually enter through the doorway at the bottom of the staircase inside. It’s implied they arrived via an elevator.
Lounge
The lounge is well equipped and tuned in to the latest news. The mini bar is restocked regularly thanks to the prep room. The owner, Leo “Slickshift” Vega, is a former pilot himself, but now he spends most of his time crunching numbers, hunting clients and managing the day-to-day. He takes great pride in keeping the mini bar stocked with expensive liquor as it’s one of the few things left he can control.
You’ll often find Leo’s old friend Gustav Marlow visiting the lounge. Unable to pay for a cybernetic leg (he lost it on a raid with Leo) the lounge is where he spends most of his time, usually having a few too many of the free drinks and spiced nuts. Leo blames himself for the loss of Gustav’s leg and thinks of Gustav as the de-facto security guard he can’t afford to hire. When Gustav isn’t at the mini bar he’s often recounting his glory days to any patrons willing to listen.
Prep room
Through the unnamed hallway connecting the lounge and bathroom your will find the prep room. This is where Slickshift prepares the mini bar and keeps an eye on the latest news and current flight conditions. He’s also installed a camera so he can observe the patrons and tend to their needs. When he’s not on a video call with prospective clients he’s usually hooked into the intranet where he’ll try his luck at the virtual gambling tables.
Abandoned storage
Over the years the east side of the rooftop have fallen into disrepair. Leo’s assistants have learned that they can stash any garbage in this room instead of taking it to the chute two stories below. The room smells accordingly and the smell will stick on anyone that stays for longer than a few minutes. Leo never enters this way and the residents in the complex knows about it. It’s the perfect place for any shady activities that requires privacy and discretion.
Control tower
Leo’s nephew Miguel practically lives in the tower. His partner, Gabriel Toulouse, also takes shifts as often as possible. They make sure Slick’s always has enough cash on hand to continue thanks to their side business. Security Czar Emi Mizuki of Cipher Labs pays them to deliver her regular packets of stolen data from Slick’s clients. Gabriel uses the Lounge wifi to access client workstations while they wait for their rides and Miguel deliver the goods to Emi when she passes through. Emi makes sure to recommend Slick’s to all her clients and colleagues.
Add extra helipads with the slab:
Helipad works with most helicopters on TalesTavern.
Here are some that fit well:
Ridiculously good, thank you!
Glad you liked it! 🙂 Hope it gets some good use!
Ah dude, this looks dope. If only I could insta-transfer this map into a airship station in the city of Sharn. Hat’s off to you.
Thank you! 🙂
