West

The western part of the city is often home to the poorer residents. Here there is a grunginess that permeates the town from the graffiti on the once cleaned brick buildings to the broken and unmaintained architecture. Crime runs high within the western half of town, making it the home of supernatural gangs of illicit activities. Such activities are rarely reported, however, and most residents are distrustful of individual's of authorities, and often let the powerful supernatural beings sort things out amongst themselves. Be careful wandering the Western streets after the sun falls.

Black Market

Just like any city - Sacrosanct is not without it's deep, dark underbelly. Hidden in the graffiti-ridden streets of the West, behind closed warehouse doors, lies the Black Market. Forever moving, it's nearly impossible to find without knowing someone who knows someone. Anything you desire can be brought for a hefty price within the Black Market - be it drugs, weapons, or lives.

What You'll Find Here

Edge of the Circle

Cull & Pistol

Hidden within the dark alleyways of the Western Ward, Cull & Pistol is a dim, often smoky bar. With a small variety of bottled and craft beers, Cull & Pistol is a quaint little neighborhood joint. With its no-frills moto, the dingy bar offers little more than liquor, music from an old jukebox, and a few frequently occupied pool tables.

Bartender Raylin Chike

Noah's Ark

Resting upon the harbor, Noah's Ark (known simply as The Ark) is a sleek superyacht known both for its fight rings and recent...renovations, of sorts. Accessible from an entrance hidden in the shadows, The Ark is a veritable Were-playground that specializes in fighting tournaments for all creatures great and small. With both singles and doubles tournaments to compete in, the title of Ark Champion is hotly contested amongst the Were population. If anything illegal is going on in the city it's sure to be happening within the back rooms or behind the ring-side bar. Note: This is a Were only establishment. All other species will be swiftly escorted out.

Syn

Within the turbulent industrial district lies this club. The warehouse doesn't look like much on the outside but it provides a memorable experience from the state of the art lighting, offbeat Victorian-inspired artwork, comfortable black leather lounges, and the infamous 'black light' room. There is a wide variety of alcohol that lines the shelves of both of the magical and ordinary variety. It is a common stomping ground for the supernatural who want to let loose and dance the night away to the music that floods the establishment. Humans are most welcome if they dare.

RAVEN: chase the sky into the ocean

In the last few nights, the young woman had grown to spending the majority of her time within the Ark. Leaving it meant that she was alone at her apartment - Dorian having gone to spend more time with his lover lately - and whenever she was alone she could hear all the creaks and bumps of her home and her paranoia had her constantly reaching for Dorian's sword to hang on to. After awhile, it felt as though it was threatening to make her crazy. So she'd packed up enough clothes to last a few days and had left a note for Dorian before she'd headed off to the Ark to be near Aiden. She knew that he was wondering what was up and why she was so adamant about spending a few days at the Ark, but at least he didn't ask.

She'd spent the first part of her day curled up on Aiden's bed while he worked. She'd had her nose in a book - Sense and Sensibility this time, since Dorian had finished reading Pride and Prejudice - and had done her best to stay quiet and not bother her boyfriend too terribly much. She knew he wouldn't mind, but she supposed it was enough of an inconvenience that she was staying within his bed for a few days, she didn't want to keep him from the work that he had to do. She knew he'd tried to keep it to a minimum in order to spend time with her. But she also understood that the Ark didn't run itself - something she understood more and more the longer she maintained the burlesque.

So it was that in mind that had had her lifting herself out of his bed. With a reassurance that she'd be back in a bit, she moved into the hallway and shut the door behind her. She wasn't sure what she had planned to do exactly other than ease her restlessness. She supposed she could have gone to see Nadya, but she knew it was around the twins' nap time and she'd been personally witness to how hard it was to get them to go to sleep. She considered the kitchen to get a snack, and had made it a few steps in that direction when she noticed that Tobi's door was open. Tobi, of course! She stopped in the doorway, knocking on the door frame as she peeked inside. Tobi was nowhere to be found, but there was Raven within the hammock.

"Hi," The girl said, her smile brightening at the sight of her friend. "I'm trying to let Aiden work for a bit. He's having a hard time focusing with me in there. Do you mind if I bug you for a bit?"
