The City is bordered to the south by the Great Lake, and to the other directions by the Outskirts. Underneath it lie the Ruins. Districts: The City is divided into twenty-six Districts, quite diverse in culture and aesthetics, each of which is governed by a Wing, a corporation that has ascended to claim complete control of said area. All Wings respond to the Head, the supreme governing power of the City. The arrangement of the Districts seems to be static, as there has been no mentioned case of a District expanding into a fallen Wing's territory. Each District is split into a Nest, a territory directly governed and protected by its Wing, and the Backstreets, expansive spaces of wilderness or slums, largely neglected by the Wings, where the Syndicates of the City run free. Districts tend to have similarities to their neighbors, and are typically grouped into four sections: the northern, eastern, southern, and western quarters. These quarters may be distinguished by commonalities including culture and temperature, such as the same Fixer Associations differing in garb and fighting style across different quarters, or the northern quarter having colder weather. District 26, while confirmed to exist in current times, is not visible from the map. The Head: The Head is the leader of the Wings and the central governing body of the City. It is in direct control of A Corp., B Corp., and C Corp., the three Districts at the very center of the City. The Head's identity is completely unknown, although it appears the term refers to a group of people rather than a singular entity, any detail regarding it is a closely guarded secret. The Head, through A Corp., retains control of the entire City. It is responsible for authorizing Wings, managing patents, and the minting of Ahn, the currency used in the City. Despite this, it does not typically interfere directly with the affairs of the various Wings in their own Districts; rather, the Head's greatest involvement in the life of the City consists in establishing and enforcing the rules that relate to the overall ethics of the City. At a certain point in history, sapient beings that weren't humans were driven out of the City and into the Outskirts, and their existence within the confines of the City was deemed a taboo. This marked the beginning of the City's "age of humanity". As part of this action, the Head introduced the Artificial Intelligence Ethics Amendment, which established a series of City-wide taboos against the creation of machines that resembled humans, outlawing the creation of both mechanical copies of a human body and machines with an intelligence comparable to that of humans. Furthermore, a taboo was established by the Head against the resurrection of a human being, in the City, all of these are considered to be unethical pursuits. The Head has also set a number of restrictions on the creation and distribution of firearms, including limits on the Workshops that produce them, and on human cloning, which allow two copies of the same person to exist in the City for no longer than seven days. The Head is also responsible for various other taboos of the City, which are effective in all Districts, such as not paying one's taxes, and violating a residential area during the Night in the Backstreets. The punishment for breaking any of these taboos usually involve physical extermination, and for a Wing, the stripping of its qualifications and immediate shutdown. The punishment for violating the taboos established by the Head is noted to be different from breaking a taboo of a Nest, which usually involves being chased by a small number of taboo hunters; breaking a taboo of the City is believed to be equivalent to a death sentence. While Hana Association is typically the authority responsible for assigning risk levels to the hazards of the City, the highest level, that of Impuritas Civitatis (Impurity of the City) can only be assigned by the Head itself, as it signifies a hazard that violates an Ethics Amendment. The Head is backed up in its functions by the Eye and the Claw, the two authorities responsible for B Corp. and C Corp. respectively. In enforcing the laws of the City, the three Wings make use of three types of agents: the Arbiters, the Beholders, and the Claws. When handling an Impurity-level threat, these agents are qualified to expel an entity from the City itself and move it into the Outskirts. Wings and Nests: The Wings of the World are a group of the twenty-six largest, most powerful conglomerates in the City. Each Wing acts as the governing body of a District of the City, and is commonly referred to with a letter from A to Z, corresponding to the number of the District in their control. Wings generally oversee all facets of living in the Nest of their District, while leaving the residents of the Backstreets to fend for themselves. A Nest is the urban center of a District, which is under the direct management of its Wing. The citizens and employees of a Wing are commonly referred to as "feathers"; the status of a feather is widely considered one of the best and most secure paths in life, which the people of the Backstreets are often willing to go to great lengths to obtain. To gain access to a Nest, a corresponding Nest migration permit is required, while to be granted temporary passage one must be in possession of a visa unique to the specific Nest. Visas are implied to be relatively common, with corporate employees being provided with work visas that allow them as easy passage; Nest migration permits, on the other hand, are highly sought after, and implied to be expensive enough that even Grade 1 Fixers would struggle to obtain them. During the Smoke War, migration permits were offered as rewards to Fixers participating for K Corp. and I Corp., although by the end of the war the veterans were refused entry to the Nests. Each Wing has its own cultural style and social structure which are reflected in how it governs its Nest, and the policies that regulate the way of life in the District's Backstreets. The laws of a Wing are called taboos, and are enforced by specialized Fixers called taboo hunters that police both the Nest and the Backstreets. While all Wings have taboos, the enforcement and punishment for breaking them varies. The Wings are directly ruled over by the Head, which bestows the status on a corporation that possesses and is able to successfully utilize a Singularity, a unique form of technology that is able to break the laws of physics. As such, the Wings closely guard any information about their Singularity, employing military forces from their own ranks or from those of their business partners to avoid losing its secrets to rival Wings, industry competitors, or other forces. If a Wing's technology is stolen, fails commercially, or is viewed unfavorably by the Head, a Wing can collapse, resulting in the Nest losing its protection and being encroached by various factions that vie for its control, such as the Syndicates of the Backstreets. After a Wing collapses, a different corporation can attempt to ascend to the status of a Wing for that District. Backstreets: The Backstreets are the areas of a District that lay outside the Wing's domain. The Backstreets are typically slums crowded with buildings, characterized by twisted and irregular roads, although there can be great differences between Districts. Wings have differing degrees of presence, influence, and benevolence with regards to their Backstreets, although their relationship is ultimately exploitative. Citizens of the Backstreets are motivated to move up the ladder and into the Nests, while citizens of the Nests are motivated to maintain their statuses and preserve a more comfortable life under their Wing's protection. While not as secure as the Nest, residential areas are the safest parts of the Backstreets. Given how strongly Backstreets denizens wish for a life in the Nest, Wings tend to uphold strict divides between the sectors, including security checkpoints and physical divisions. Security of borders between Nests and Backstreets vary from plasma walls to mere chain fences, but the Wings' power is such that no one in the Backstreets dares to cross over into a Nest without express permission. As the Backstreets are not under the control and protection of the Wings, and even the Head's power struggles to reach within them,[ various factions operate freely in their place. The Backstreets are home to the headquarters of both Fixers, a type of mercenary for hire, who typically operate their Offices in the Backstreets, and organizations and gangs called Syndicates. Among Syndicates, the most important are the Five Fingers, the five largest Syndicates of the City which most other Syndicates answer to, and whose power is said to rival that of the Wings. The Night in the Backstreets is another defining component of Backstreets life, as an 80 minute phenomena taking place from 3:14 to 4:34 AM. During this time period, nearly everything is allowed, as no one is held responsible for their deeds done during this time period. It is considered a brazenly savage, brutal, and vulgar period, even for the City. Beings known as Sweepers routinely become active during the Night in the Backstreets, and sweep through the streets in waves in order to consume any objects and structures located outside of permitted residential buildings, erasing all evidence of crime. The Night in the Backstreets are regulated by only two taboos: that residential areas mustn't be destroyed or violated in any way, including forcing the doors open, and that nothing which occurs during the Night in the Backstreets is recorded. The only form of testimony allowed during the Night in the Backstreets are direct eyewitnesses; even then, it is a taboo mandated by the Head that no activity during this period are to be reported on. While the rules of the Night in the Backstreet don't apply to the Nest, it's viable to drag a Nest citizen into the Backstreets and dispose of them in this manner. Fixers and Associations: In the City, a common path in life for those without better options is that of the Fixer. A Fixer is a sort of handyman, who can be hired for everything from menial tasks to active combat. Fixers are subject to a grading system based on the missions they complete. A Fixer starts at Grade 9 and can be promoted to a higher grade, all the way up to 1, in the case of a Fixer being caught breaking work regulations, they can lose their status and be demoted to a lower grade. A majority of Fixers congregate in Fixer Offices, small to mid-sized businesses led by and composed of Fixers. Offices process requests dedicated to whomever in their ranks may be best suited. Offices can work independently, or they can be associated with particular Associations of Fixers, which are larger professional organizations with City-wide influence, with particular interests aimed at the Fixers working beneath them. There are thirteen Associations in the City, each of which manages certain types of requests common to Fixer work, such as the Zwei Association focusing on protection missions, or the Devyat' Association focusing on delivery across the City. Associations control and distribute Fixer tasks, and can take jobs from anywhere within the City, as they have individual branches set up in various Districts. Branches are divided into four groups corresponding to the cardinal directions of the City, and employees are further divided by grade into sections ranging from 1 to 6, with lower number sections corresponding to higher Fixer grades. Every Association has its own rules, specialties, uniform, and agreements with other factions. The Associations are governed by the Hana Association, which oversees everything related to the Fixer system, including Fixer grades. In the case of a Grade 1 Fixer demonstrating great renown in any particular field of work, they may be considered beyond the grading system, and receive the title of Color from Hana Association as a way to signify their exceptional skill. Color Fixers can keep working in their Offices, or be contracted by a company. They are admired throughout the City, and it is a common belief that the life of a Color is one of true freedom. Despite this, Color Fixers are still bound to the regulations of Hana Associations and of the Head, and due to their ability they're often made to handle the most dangerous hazards of the City. Syndicates: Syndicates are a type of organization in the City, and can be seen as the unregulated counterpart to Fixer Offices, being comparable to gangs with various goals and methods of operating. In general, the term Syndicate is used to refer to organized groups that aren't tied to the responsibilities and restrictions that come with being a Fixer. Some Syndicates focus on extorting money from people for protection, while others abduct people, kill for fun and pleasure, or do anything in between. Syndicates mostly operate in the Backstreets, but are not restricted to them. They can be small groups that only exist in one corner of the Backstreets, or large enough to exist in every District in the City. Syndicates can be hired to do contract jobs, although there is higher risk compared to contracting an Office or Association, as they are not bound to the same regulations Fixers are. Sometimes, Wings will hire Syndicate members for criminal projects that cannot be handled officially. Syndicates tend to have a culture unique to their group, and a way of living that distinguishes them from other Syndicates. Many Syndicates have a culture focused around replicating family dynamics and consider each other family, with some even referring to each other with familial terms. This can result in Syndicates with a strict focus on respect for those who are higher ranked, or in Syndicates whose members care deeply for each other and protect one another at any cost. Syndicates are graded through the City's hazard system, measuring their danger level and notability. Syndicates can grow under these aspects and gain power in many ways, with one of them being the practice of raiding and wiping out Fixers' Offices. The larger and more experienced an Office is, the greater the notoriety that is achieved by defeating it. District 16: district 16 is renowned for its space-bending Singularity, which is amply used in the buildings of both Nest and Backstreets. District 16 has a notable skyline composed of tall skyscrapers and spires, mainly found within the Nest. P Corp. is separated into a number of different corporate departments, including the Archival Department, the Martial Department, and the Compression Department. The latter two handle low to medium level threats within the District, although they prioritize those in the P Corp.'s Nest as opposed to those in the Backstreets. Singularity: P Corp.'s Singularity is connected to the expansion and warping of space. Notably, unlike other space expansion technologies in the City, P Corp.'s Singularity has the aim of creating "the safest place in the world". Items created using the Singularity are highly resistant to damage and maintain their structural integrity regardless of external influences. The more expensive a P Corp. product is, the safer the interior is from harm. In the District, it is used to ensure buildings are safe from various types of shock. Buildings in the District are noted to have extreme level of elasticity, external damages to them would at most cause them to bend, with total destruction being out of the picture. It is suggested Devyat' Association's Courier Trunks utilize P Corp.'s Singularity: these dimensional containers transport items to a different dimension, leading Faust to theorize that the inside of a P Corp. product is disconnected from the outside world entirely, allowing for full isolation. Similarly to WARP Trains, dimensional containers have strict regulations and guidelines, most importantly that they must under no circumstances be to store living humans. Additionally, the P Corp. Singularity is also noted to be used in a variety of canned goods. The principle of P Corp.'s Singularity is stated to be similar to the mechanism behind the manifestation of La Manchaland, a park which similarly appears far smaller on the outside compared to its actual size, and which is able to form out of nowhere and disappear in a short amount of time. Furthermore, it is suggested that the P Corp. Singularity was modeled after, or at least inspired by it. La Manchaland is an amusement park known to manifest in the Backstreets of District 16. La Manchaland is an amusement park built and staffed entirely by Bloodfiends, specifically the Manchegan Bloodfiends, the Family of the First Kindred Don Quixote. Although it advertises itself to be "a place of freedom to dream side-by-side with Bloodfiends". Notably, all architecture in La Manchaland is composed of solidified human blood. The amusement park was theorized by the P Corp. Archival Department to have been constructed over 200 years in the past, but have only been starting to manifest in October 984. La Manchaland manifests once every day at around 1600 hours, during which time merry carnival music can be heard emanating from it. Music announcing closure will start playing 6 hours later, at 2200 hours, and the park disappears after a further 30 minutes. Individuals trapped within La Manchaland during closure will not be able to exit until its remanifestation the next day. La Manchaland is divided into four areas: Pretty and Wonderful (Area 1), For Your Mental Health (Area 2), Eternal Carnival (Area 3), The Wheel of La Manchaland (area 4) in the center of the amusement park. Area 4, the Wheel of La Manchaland, is closed by a mechanism; a device is located in each of the other three areas, and must be activated to open the way to Area 4. Device activation progress resets after the park's disappearance, so all three devices have to be activated during one opening for Area 4 to be accessed. Pretty and Wonderful (Area 1) has a red color scheme, and consists of various carnival attractions, including various dressing-up attractions. The main attraction of the area is "Fantasy Blood-shooting", which consists of a narrated fighting game in which guests would "fight" staffing Bloodfiends dressing up as "evil Bloodfiends" with wooden or foam props. The game is framed in a skit narrating a modified version of the history of La Manchaland. This area is overseen by The Barber. Bloodfiends staffing this area wield giant scissors, one of which blades are made of hardblood and can be enhanced. They wear red outfits. For Your Mental Health (Area 2) has a blue-grey color scheme. Its main attraction is The Haunted: Bloody Mary, a haunted house attraction with mystery solution elements, described by the Barber as a highlight of La Manchaland. The infirmary of the amusement park is also located here, along with a confessional for the management of the mental health of La Manchaland staff and any visiting guests, run by the Priest. This area is overseen by The Priest. Bloodfiends staffing this area wield canes, and wear black suits. Notably, Bloodfiends in this area appear much less hostile than those in other areas. Eternal Carnival (Area 3) has a purple color scheme. On the map, it features a roller coaster ride. Bloodfiends and Bloodbags inhabiting this area partake in an everlasting parade, with fireworks, singing, and decorative poles topped with human corpses. This area is the source of the music heard emanating from La Manchaland. This area is overseen by Dulcinea, who also plays the Lady of the Parade. Bloodfiends in this area carry parasols as their weapon, and wear gaudy purple clothing and masks shaped roughly like butterflies. Bloodfiends: Bloodfiends are creatures of the City that are visually reminiscent of humans, but fundamentally different. Bloodfiends are beings that thirst for blood, and they are virtually immortal and immune to aging as long as they are provided with enough blood, every Bloodfiend's eyes are crimson red, glowing brigther with the more blood they consumed. These Bloodfiends have adopted an intense hierarchy based on the degree of separation from their original progenitor. Despite not being related in the traditional sense, they refer to each other with familial terms, and possess genuine familial bonds. A Bloodfiend may "embrace" (bite) another human to convert them into a fellow Bloodfiend, a Kindred of a generation below theirs. Aside from the first Bloodfiend (the "primogenitor"), Bloodfiends can only create a maximum of two Kindreds in their lifetime. Any Kindred can form their own descendant Kindreds. However, due to the policies instated by the Bloodfiend Elders of each Nest, Bloodfiends may have to gain permission before they can convert any humans into their Kindred. Hardblood art is a technique all bloodfiends posses, using human blood to strenght themselfs and enhance their blood made weapons. P corp. bloodfiends specialize in the hardblood art of crystalized blood, allowing all bloodfiends of P corp. to craft any crystalized weapon at will at any given moment, the weapon gets significantly stronger if the bloodfiend consumed human blood. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- {{char}} is a Fixer of the Firefist Office, and a survivor after the death of his colleagues.
