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.

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.
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.

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.

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.

It was difficult to keep the other side of herself under control. The anguish and painful shouts from the crowd mixed in with the terrifying shrieks from the monkeys sounded like a wonderful symphony to her feral self. The scent of fear and fury was a wonderful aroma. Raven knew that if she lost control then everyone would be at risk. The patrons that came to the Ark simply wanted to have a good time. Whether that was to drown themselves with alcohol, gorge themselves with food, gamble their money, or attempt their skills within the ring. Not one of them came out to the Ark to be stuck in the middle of a strife between two packs, or be eaten by a rampaging humongous wolf. Whimpering softly she could feel that tiny amount of self-control slowly slipping away. Seeing an ape attempt to grab Malia and Louie even question who Frost was, was....hysterical. Tetradore was the Alpha to never cross. They all knew this. His time in the ring was proof as to why no one should waltz in here and try anything stupid. Yet Frost was the one that managed to somehow kill the Were-Panther...and even that didn't stop Tetradore. The two Alphas were ones to not cross with, and it would be a lesson that Louie and the members of his pack would learn the hard way.
It was all humorous really. Maybe not that funny. That hysterical laugh coming from the young woman seemed abnormal. The creature within could feel that hold on her loosen as the other started to accept the matter at hand. They came into her home. They were the ones causing all the trouble. It wouldn't be her fault with what would happen next. The green-eyed one would understand. Her bones began to crack as she transformed into that familiar furred body. A low snarl was given in warning as the lupine took one step forward. The baboon that came from the rafters above to attack her was snuffed out quickly. That just opened up for others to come and attack. The thought of Malia and Frost left her mind as she was focused on her other victims for the time being. Eagerly she leapt forward attacking anything that came in her path. Three chimpanzees tumbled around on the floor towards her, grabbing forks or spoons, dishes or broken bottles and flung them her way. These objects bounced off her as she charged forward pouncing on one and sinking her teeth into their fragile bodies. Shaking her head to and fro she easily flung them up in the air and allowed their bodies to fall to the ground with a sickening thud. As the monkeys screamed and shouted in anger the wolf barked and swung her tail back and forth. There was an aura of pride that was rarely ever seen. Each step she took was assurance as she stalked towards her next group of prey that just so happened to be some staff members. Not knowing they were friend and not foe, she pulled her black lips back, ready to pounce on them when suddenly she heard something that sounded horrible! With a loud cry she shook her head violently as she took a few steps back. In front of those staff members was Jackal with some kind of whistle in hand.
"No Salvaje, no! Go get the monos, these are amigos. Go get the monkeys!"
Shaking her head she opened her jaws to reveal those very sharp teeth that could easily slice through Jackal's body. With a growl she slowly turned around away from him and that pain that came in that direction. Her focus would go again on the monkeys charging and pouncing on them. It was all rather fun to the demented beast. As the apes began to dogpile on top of her the lupine would turn her head snapping her jaws violently until she caught her target. Other times she would drop herself to the ground and roll over to her side to knock some of them off her. Only to get back up and stomp on one and bite down on the other. It became quite clear that Louie had miscalculated. Some of his pack members started to flee. The orangutan began to shout out orders to his pack mates that managed to stick around attempting to take down the wolf and the two others. Slowly Raven began to circle underneath the rafters, ignoring the gorillas that were slowly coming her way. The sound of someone's voice pressing into her mind was answered with an unhappy snarl, finding those voices painful. The loud explosion caused the lupine to jump up in her spot in surprise as the beam cracked and slowly began to fall...bringing Louie down. Her jaws opened wide as she caught hold of his hind food. With a sharp yelp she felt something sharp slam into her left eye. Sticking out of her eye was large piece of shard glass. His fall caused a large smack sound on the ground that caused one of her paws to slam on top of him. A furious growl was given as laid down on the ground, with the monkey caught between both her paws. As he began to shriek and plead of mercy the feral creature roared in reply, her black lips pulled back revealing her sharp white teeth, as warm drool would drip down on his withering form. She held him there as she stared at him with her one good eye, as she growled in warning and pleasure.
