Inspired by the recent cries of "unfair!" that most people won't ever have a way of getting them...
LOCATION: Plae Ain UD-K D8-96 planet ABC2 - asteroid base "Museum of Technology" (to be added) within the rings of a ringed Earthlike world in deep space (why settle for a surface base on an airless rock with unclaimed ELW's available?). Eventually scope for adding a villa on the surface when/if ELW's become landable.
KNOWLEDGE: obtained from the Engineer Ram Tah.
INVITATION: become allied with (new faction) "The Gatherers", to be added to Morgan's Rock station in the NGC 6188 Sector LC-V c2-28 system (make it their home system to avoid expulsion). Also, Plae Ain UD-K D8-96 to become a permit-locked system, with The Gatherers as the permit-holding faction, and a new outpost, "Gathering Point", within 15ly to deliver the permit (single-faction or BGS-locked).
UNLOCK: deliver 10 tons of Jaques Quinentian Still (rare good, available only from Jacques Station in Colonia).
BIO: The Collector is a reclusive billionaire who retired to deep space. He/she/it has undertaken to create a museum to preserve examples of all humanity's technological achievements, partly as a hobby, and partly to preserve human knowledge against a possible downfall of civilisation.
SERVICES: The Collector offers engineering upgrades to Grade 2 standard on all blueprints for all modules: he/she/it is not a specialist in any one field, but a competent dabbler in all (and familiar with all experimental effects). The Museum of Technology also contains a Manufactured Materials Trader, with an Encoded Materials Trader at the nearby Gathering Point outpost. There is also a Human Technology Broker present at the Museum.
The Collector also sells all modules at standard prices. This includes all standard modules, all Human and Guardian tech-broker modules, all PowerPlay modules, and all special limited-edition Community Goal reward modules.
If you wish to buy a module you wouldn't normally be entitled to (not unlocked, not pledged to the right Power, didn't participate in the CG etc), you must obtain a special-access pass, which costs 50 million credits and will involve completing a mission. This gives you access to ONE restricted module, but you can then pay another 50 million and do another mission to get another one, and so on. There might be a timer to ensure you can't do this often.
ETA: To clarify, you can only buy one module per pass, then you lose the pass.
