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.

Why would she be locked in a cage? This was the oddest and strangest cage she had ever been in. Where were the bars? Where were the chains? Where was the bowl of water and the empty one where food would be discarded? She did not like being trapped like this. Obnoxiously she barked, and barked, and barked, demanding to be let out and know why she was here in the first place. It is when Serafina comes into the cage does she calm down. Eagerly her front grey paws are placed on the console, as her dial presses towards Serafina, her nose poking into the woman's face, her pink wet tongue sliding across the witch's pale flesh. Ecstatic she quickly shows the witch just how grateful she was that she was in here within the cage. As her hand gently pushes her muzzle away from her face the lupine climbs back up to sit on the backseat. The sudden sound of the engine causes a low growl to rise deep within her chest, uncertain to who or what was making that sound as the engine continued to turn. A sharp yelp came out of the peculiar colored wolf as the vehicle moved backwards, eyes widen as she watched the windows fall down, and the sudden smell of fresh air enters the now moving cage.


Curious the lupine cautiously approaches the back door, her dial lifting upwards as the scent of the fresh air increases. Grey ears twitch forward with interest as she feels a sudden cool wind that seemed to draw her in. Slowly she pokes her head outside the vehicle, eyes widening at the shock of the sensation she feels. Quickly she shoves her head back into the safety of the car, but she sticks her head back out, finding this fun. Feeling a bit braver, she sticks her head out and opens her muzzle, turning her dial forward to feel the full force of the wind brush right into her face. Her grey banner swayed back and forth in a quick manner, her paws settled on the door, sticking her full front half of her body out. Happily she begins to bark, not caring how the others within their cages look at her, her feral side quite happy with this new experience. It is when the car's speed decreases and they pull into a parking lot does she walk backwards and settle herself on the backseat, watching as the window goes up. As the growling of the car comes to a stop she notices the rearview mirror containing the witch's eyes. Unsure with what she means she tilts her dial to the side, but eagerly jumps out of the vehicle when she opens the door.


Wearily she approaches the building taking a moment to stop as her eyes widen with awe as the door began to open. Blue-grey eyes watched as a human and a canine with a leash came out. Cautiously she takes a step, taking a jump back when the door slides open again. As Serafina walks forward she quickly goes to her side, walking with her until they entered the building, turning her dial around to see the door close. Overpowered by the various scents, new sights and sounds, the lupine stares in wonder at all that she sees and smells. Not really sure what to do, or even where to go, she begins to walk down the first aisle. She walks down the aisle, nothing of interest, the aisle containing numerous boxes of grooming products. As the canine continues to walk she ignores the other dogs and people, not finding them interesting at all. What does interest her are the odd creatures contained in some sort of box. Both ears prick forward with clear interest as she recognizes these creatures, they are food, the hoppity creatures.


Eagerly she heads towards the plastic box, her nose bumping into the wall as she notices the brown, grey, and black rabbits hop away from her. Her tail sways side to side eagerly glad to see those things. However, her attention is broken when an unknown male takes an approach, she could tell he was not pleased at all, with that stern look on his face and his arms folded across his chest. She takes a step back and bumps into Serafina, looking up at her uncertain with what she did wrong. The manager of the store points at Raven and with a harsh low voice he orders the witch to comply.


"Ma'am, you need to keep your...is that a wolf dog? An animal like that needs to be on a leash and wearing a muzzle."
