A Warehouse (倉庫, Sōko) is a building for storing goods and is a facility available in many games of the Suikoden series.
Information
Warehouses are facilities used for storing weapons, armor, medicine, and various other tools. While seemingly simple at first glance, the organizing, sorting, and storing a large number of items in a limited space requires a high level of administrative skills. The job of quickly moving things in and out as requested by clients also requires a good memory.
The warehouses were managed by Rock in the Liberation Army stronghold at Toran Castle and by Barbara at the New State Army Headquarters.
Rock administered his warehouse by himself, with a simple chair for him to rest in between duties. Barbara, meanwhile, had an assistant to help with heavy lifting and item disposal. She also seemed to have a problem with unwanted visitors, such as rats and, occasionally, a hiding Gadget.
