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.

There was a reason why her pack did not trust her. She was beaten, quite literally, to understand and accept just why her pack considered her a threat. Always she was to be punished and beaten into submission. Not everyone understood why she was cursed to have a feral mind, but she received the lucky draw of the card. The way they decided to deal with it was to constantly beat her into submission, forcing her to accept the pain and remind her that she deserved it. It was her fault, and hers alone, that she had killed her own Mother. Crime of killing an Alpha was death, but it was her blood that had saved her, because another law kept her alive: killing an Alpha's child. She did not mean to kill the only being that showed her some ounce of love. She had tried to explain to her Father and members of her pack that she didn't understand why she couldn't control her own limbs or why her jaws had decided to crush her jugular. Having a feral mind was an experience that no Were should yield to. She had no control over her actions, trapped to watch what her savage-self had in mind. Always she was beaten, her pack thinking that if they could tame her this way, then when she should change into her unrestrained-self that should they attack her she would submit right then and there without putting anyone in harm. Occasionally it worked, but every now and then, she just couldn't be controlled. At this point in time, she had just recused some innocent woman from being attacked. Killing was the only thing her savage mind could understand that would solve the problem at hand. However, her troubled mind was conflicted. Part of her understood that the woman was the one in danger, but another side of her couldn't help but wonder if she should do it all over again.
There was a trace of a tendril of her own mind struggling to grip control of her massive bear-sized form. Her ebony sleek body would move once towards the woman, grey trimmed ears pointed forward with interest. That cold nose of hers savoring the fear that overwhelmed the poor girl. Fear was something she craved to taste and within this mindset it was not the correct thing she should be sensing. Blue grey eyes would narrow as the girl attempted to calm herself, her hand reaching for the pentacle that hung around her nape. Tilting her head to the side in a curious manner she seemed fixated on the piece of jewelry attempting to piece together just why it was so recognizable. Her own flank carried the same mark within her fur, but at this point in time she could not grasp it. Her head would tilt to the other side this time around while the woman spoke ignoring the gratitude, mostly focused on the inquiry. Staring quietly the wolf would speak with a booming grittily voice reaching the girl's mind.
"Yes."
That this massive creature could respond should be quite shocking. Weres could talk amongst themselves, not with any other creature. Yet she had the capability to do such a thing. As the woman began to reach out towards her, the wolf would slowly lower her scarred face, her cold nose nearly touching the others hand. Could the woman take note that the wolf was deeply abused in her past? It wasn't hard to see, no one needed any sort of magical gift. The evidence was written on her face, but also along her form. Will the witch be capable of understanding that she was deeply disturbed, troubled, and oh so very damaged. Growling softly she would raise her head once more, not wishing for the other to touch her, her gritted voice carrying a soft warning.
"You aren't supposed...to be here."
