So, has anyone considered the humble suitcase?

[Commander Truestar]

Hi All,
So, I have a very detail-oriented player who want3ed options for his travel storage.
Because of that, did a search on the forums and didn't see anything that wasn't too specialized for Agent or other operational use.

Following that, I did a "first pass" and this is what I came up with.
Now, I want more and hopefully better minds than mine to comment on my idea.
I've attached the Ver. 1 PDF here and I hope you can all lend a comment

Thanks in advance

Consider optional sealing against vacuum.

Consider optional sealing against vacuum.

I so automatically consider that they are in space that my thoughts zoomed right past that option

Thank you!!!

For a Traveller character, I'd think an advanced version of this would be the thing:

The humble "sea bag" holds a lot of stuff, is manageable in getting around the starport, etc., durable as hell, and just an all-around winner. Still use mine after 45 years. Hasn't met an airport baggage smasher that can beat it. (Mine's the older one strap variety)

Thank you, but that wouldn't suit this character, or these players.

An additional option:
Armored suitcase: Unfolds to make a ballistic shield, or reflec shield.

You could combine:

With this:

to get an 'intelligent' self-driving suitcase...

Hmm after reading the PDF, a few thoughts.

Emergency pressure suit or survival bubble for those not wanting to trust the ship sets.

Some travellers wile away space boredom with their own custom-designed stocked bar case or other functional pharma.

Snack case or gourmand supplies. Minifridges for this or the bar, especially for the fussy whose goods just must be at x temperature and humidity.

Auto laundry including dry cleaning and pressing.

Pet carrier with toys treats and vacc suits.

Super advanced/artifact stasis luggage. How does that delicate spider silk gossamer dress come out perfectly Couture with nary a wrinkle? Only Grandfather knows!

Servant support gear for private chefs, tailors, masseuses, hairdressers/cosmetic etc.

Specialized luggage for athletic gear for vacation or perhaps a travelling athlete.

Upgrading smart moving luggage to full bot, able to have complex inputs for unique actions and problem solving.

Luggage so stylish and attractive and expensive it temporarily confers +1 SOC.

Unlikely to be universal, but depending on criteria for cabin luggage.

Volume or weight.
