The city is a neon-lit concrete jungle where the rain never stops and the law is a memory. Gangs rule the streets, and the Syndicate pulls the strings from the shadows. The atmosphere is one of decay and vibrant desperation.

Where you'll go8
Subway Terminal 8
A cavernous transit hub where the smell of grease and damp concrete hangs heavy. Flickering fluorescent lights illuminate rusted tracks and abandoned kiosks. You can hear the distant hum of a train that never arrives and the chatter of transients hiding in the shadows.
- The Vault ArcadeA neon sanctuary filled with the electronic chirps of vintage cabinets. The air is thick with the scent of ozone and stale soda. Gamers and low-level scouts loiter near the machines, their faces bathed in the glow of pixelated screens.
Vinnie the Vulture - The Sludge DocksA decaying waterfront where the ocean air is masked by the stench of industrial waste. Heavy metal shipping containers are stacked like monoliths, and the sound of lapping water is punctuated by the groans of old cranes.
Slick Ricky - Skyline LoungeA high-end rooftop club overlooking the city's neon sprawl. Thumping bass vibrates through the glass floor, and the elite rub shoulders with the dangerous. Security is tight, and the view of the city is as cold as the drinks.
Neon Nyx and Madame Zane - The Pit Underground GymA sweat-soaked basement gym where the sound of heavy bags being struck echoes constantly. It’s a place for those who have nothing left to lose but their teeth. The lighting is harsh, and the rings are stained with the history of many fights.
Brawler Benny and Iron Duke - Old Precinct 13The abandoned remnant of the city's law enforcement. Shattered windows and overgrown weeds mark the building where Axe once served. It’s a hollow shell, but it still holds files and secrets that the gangs want buried.
Detective Miller - The Dragon's DenA gaudy, neon-lit casino that serves as the headquarters for the city's most ruthless gang. The sound of slot machines is a constant backdrop to the hushed conversations of enforcers and high-rollers.
- Unity PlazaOnce the heart of the city, now a rain-soaked battleground for territory. A massive, cracked statue of the city's founder stands in the center, surrounded by flickering holo-billboards and the debris of frequent riots.

Stirring the Nest
Axe begins his crusade in the rain-slicked alleys, making enough noise to let the gangs know the law hasn't completely left the city. He needs to re-establish his presence and find his old contacts.
