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.

long live the pioneers
rebels and mutineers

She had forgotten what a bear the community could be, it appeared vanishing for nigh two years had done little to obscure the one-time meeting she had with the residents of this place. She managed to maintain a mask that veiled her surprise at Raven's knowledge of her, realizing that while perhaps not the easiest course her only choice now was to steer into the storm. Denying it would do her no good. It was obvious the girl Raven and the man who hovered in the shadows above were close on whatever level, his silence as Raven listed her transgressions meaning either she was his superior or he trusted her judgement. Either way she suspected Raven was the one she had to win over for now, and while she could still feel the burning emerald gaze of the man upstairs she ignored him. She sighed, running a hand through her hair habitually as she gathered what she hoped was the best course of action; she had to eat after all.

Finally, she sighed meeting Raven's eyes squarely with nothing to hide. "I had been hired to steal something of yours, the talisman the leopard was wearing that night. As I'm sure you know it was never taken, at least not by me and while we may never know if I am a good enough thief to have pulled it off the fact that I never returned to try should tell you something. If you know my history then you know my usual clientele, lifting petty cash from bars isn't that and while that line of work can be... lucrative I can honestly say I prefer this. If you want references I was a bartender for a short time at the Cat's Meow, I'm not sure if its open still but I worked for a Nadya. Maybe you know her? It was years ago, but we never had trouble" She took a breath, tempted to let her eyes sweep up to the balcony where she could still feel that dark haired man's gaze on her but she kept her focus. "I have experience in the bar scene, I know how to get people what they need, be it food, booze, or a swift kick in the ass. If you know what I did as a thief then you know who my targets were. There is a reason I stick to a certain type, the only reason I took the job against you was out of sheer desperation and we see how that ended. Call it a conscious, but I only take from those that deserve to have things take and as far as I can tell someone who is providing me with a living will never fall under that category."

It was a calculated risk to be so transparent, but she had a feeling that a lie would quickly be sniffed out in a place where lies were often so common. Rolling her shoulders she forced herself to relax, reclining to a more comfortable position on the bar stool as she laid her hands on the counter. "I'm a hard worker, I can promise you'll get more than you pay for where I'm concerned. As much as you might know about me, I promise you don't know me, at least not yet and all I ask is for a fair shot." Well, she had done all she could now, made her case to both judge and jury and all she could hope is that there were willing, or perhaps just desperate enough, to give her a chance.

If not it was going to be meager living for quite some time.
