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.

i'm not ashamed of my scars, i'm ashamed of the world for not understanding.

Winter was always one of her favorite seasons. The crisp cold air to breathe had a delightful taste to it. The snow was always fun to watch fall from the sky, and when there was enough, the snow was fun to play in too! Unfortunately, she lived with jungle cats and neither of them enjoyed the cold weather much less be in the snow. Of course they would come out to humor her, but they wouldn't stay out for long. Some members of the Ark Staff were happy to come out and play with her. However, today Raven had no interest being outside in the freezing cold. Instead she was busy staying warm within the Ark quite content to be indoors for a change. The young woman was busy working within the warm kitchen, preparing a few snacks for herself, Alexis, and the boys. They were currently busy playing their video games, but she knew eventually one of them would catch onto that sweet scent of her baking coming from the kitchen, and it wouldn't be long until they barged in. Hearing the timer go off from her oven she hurriedly walked over, pulling the door down, and using her telekinesis she pulled the tray of cookies out from within. Setting the cookies along the stove to cool off she returned to the dishes washing and putting them away. The boys wouldn't clean up and she had no wish to have the staff clean up her mess. From the corner of her eye she noticed movement, turning her head around ready to warn the boys to keep a few cookies for herself, she was pleased to see it was simply Jackal. He was announcing that her friend had finally arrived. With a nod she quickly finished up her cleaning task.


As soon as she was finished she walked over to the cookies, using a spatula she gently removed the cookies, from the cookie sheets and placed them onto two dishes. Once she was finished she grabbed the kettle that contained the warm milk, pouring the milk into two cups that already contained cocoa mix. Using her telekinesis she easily moved the two cups and plate of cookies onto a tray. The other plate full of cookies was kept there so that her Alpha and mate could find it. With a nod to Jackal she headed through the threshold and towards the common area, knowing that the electric fire would be running and keeping it warm and cozy. With a small smile on her scarred face she entered the room with her tray of warm drinks and treats, setting the tray down on a table. She gave her friend a small hug as she took a few steps and sat down upon the couch. Grabbing a cup of hot chocolate for herself she took a sip quite content as she shifted herself in her spot to make herself more comfortable.


"Hi Alexis, I'm so happy you made it. Come on, I have hot chocolate and a few cookies I managed to bake. I think the boys snuck into the kitchen and are starting to devour the rest, so I doubt we'll be bothered."
