Starlight District, the (spiritual) home of Halcyon City's extraterrestial immigrant community.
- Landmark: The Superhero Museum. Details to come...
Phoenix Academy, a floating academy training powered youth from across the world.
- Landmark: The Dominion Dome, the school’s arena. Address: Where the Sports Happen. True Name: Featureless white sphere, adaptable inside to allow a variety of sports, homoerotic subtext.
Hazard Engine, a giant robot once piloted against the city, now disarmed and reclaimed as a part of the city.
- Location: The Bridge, the robot's old control centre now used for municipal council meetings. Address: In the robot's head. True Name: An awesome view, the weight of responsibility.
- Resident: Malcontent (she/her). Filtered voice, sharp suits, hidden identity, energy absorption powers. True name: Driven, wanting to live up to her potential, first graduating class of phoenix academy.
- Location: The Grinder, a fight club. Scummy, grimy, brutal. Address: Upper Left Arm Sector A. True Name: A man getting punched out by a much bigger man, a man getting punched out by a much smaller man, two heavy-duty mech suits revving their weapons, a greasy bucket of fried chicken, an audience screaming over blaring music.
Civic Centre, the seat of Halcyon City’s government and home to its fanciest museums and galleries.
- Reputation: Oldest part of town, seat of government, stuffy.
- True Name: A valley of bureaucracy, the quiet of power, a lack of food options.
Events
Second Event: Civball! Zoning debates over zoning slow to a crawl so city hall breaks for a ‘friendly’ game of civball, as is traditional in Halcyon City since the Silver Age.
- Consequence: Malcontent does well and garners support.
- Consequence: It's a fun game, but City Hall catches on fire a little bit.
- Opinion: It's time for us t o put Civball away, it's getting too rowdy.
- Opinion: If we put Civball away, any goodwill left in city hall will die.
- 2nd Perspective: Malcontent shrewdly used civball to draw public attention to the affordable housing debates in city hall.
