The east side of the city is the very heart of Sacrosanct - it's unique skyline is a clash between modern sky rises and small Victorian-inspired storefronts. In the heart of downtown, the sleek colored glass buildings reign supreme though their old-world roots can be seen in the most peculiar places from the lamp post styled electric street light to the stone sidewalks. The old world architecture slowly returns the further from downtown you travel, however. It's here that magic thrives, it hums in every stone and can be felt in every breath. Often, newcomers to the city may become overwhelmed by such sensations but, eventually, it becomes an ever-present feeling that's hardly noticed.

With one hundred floors and a 125-foot spire, the Starlight Tower rises high above the Sacrosanct skyline. More than just a landmark, the Starlight Tower offers a unique mix of restaurants, shops, and offices spaced throughout the building. Organized into nine verticle zones, each of which features a sky lobby and a light-filled garden atrium which merge the upscale interior with a faux landscaped exterior setting.
As she tore through the alleyway she was attempting to at least be the responsible one. Maybe if another Dark Hunter came they would see their own acting far too reckless and stop them before something worse happens. Using her telekinesis to take the gun out of his hand seemed like a pretty good start. Now if only she could shake him off. Bounding around the corner, she turned her dial to double check her pursuer, but suddenly she collided into something heavy and furry. Her vision suddenly went blurry and her world turned upside down. The wind was completely knocked out of her. Breathing heavily, blue-grey eyes widened in shock as she tried to take in her new surroundings. The sound of a growl caused the fur along her hackles to rise. Slowly the she-wolf began to bring herself on her four paws. Unlike other wolves her markings were not natural at all. While her paws were dusted with grey topped off with a curled wave, her tail had the same sort of markings. Along her back and spine was a grey with dragon like wings spread far and wide behind where her shoulders would be. Seeing the equally inky black wolf beside her, she went still believing for a moment she was seeing two wolves. Weakly a soft apologetic voice pressed carefully into the other she-wolf's mind.
She didn't feel hurt. At least she didn't feel the painful bite of a silver bullet entering her body. She was rather lucky! After all she couldn't heal properly like other Weres. There was a reason why her entire body was covered in various jagged scars. As she stared at the two wolves before her she watched as they suddenly morphed into one. Closing her eyes she shook her head, opening them to see that her vision had cleared. It was a good thing too, because when she heard the sound of some blade singing above her head, she ducked it towards the pavement hearing a soft thud. Eyes shifted upwards to see one of his throwing knives had entered perfectly into the side of the trunk...far too close for comfort for either of them. Hearing the other growl, she responded in kind, the deep growl rumbling with in her own chest. Still feeling the effects of the flight and fight stimulus she turned around to see the Dark Hunter coming closer. While she she-wolf began to charge at their shared assailant Raven released a soft whimper, feeling her body start to go cold and the buzzing in her head suddenly intensifying. Raven knew what would happen next and she didn't want any harm coming to her...she didn't deserve to be torn into shreds. Holding onto her last attempt at control her terrified voice rang out to Mira.
Indeed she needed to run away, because the Dark Hunter wouldn't be the only one that would cause her harm. The peculiar colored she-wolf began to snarl, her black lips pulling back to reveal her sharp ivory teeth. The sound of bone and sinew snapping could be heard as the she-wolf turned into a ferocious creature the size of a bear, the girl capable of growing three times her size. All that was left of Raven was simply gone and in her place was the part of herself she was absolutely terrified of. Blue-grey eyes narrowed when she zoned in on the ebony she-wolf being stabbed by the Dark Hunter. With a vengeful snarl the bear sized wolf charged at the Dark Hunter, one massive grey paw smacking him into the ground. Lowering her dial she snapped her massive jaws taking his hip, and lifting her dial to shake him back and forth as if he were a ragdoll. Suddenly she felt something sharp stabbing her cheek. With a loud yelp she released the Dark Hunter as he fell upon the ground. Raising her paw up she attempted to scratch the side of her face, the sharp knife being a bothersome. As the Dark Hunter tried to crawl away she slammed her paw into his form, eyes darting to the other she-wolf as the man's cries and shouts began to irritate her. Even in her feral state she knew this was not hers. For a brief moment it would seem her primal state was willing to be...considerate.
