In here, you can make a thread for your character to keep track of threads, pokemon, items, relations, and whatever your heart so wishes for.

Of course, we all enjoy a good plot or two, but it takes more than one to make one! Post requests, ideas and what will you in here. Or, of course, there will probably be smaller groups within our larger ones now, right? Come start or join an organization!

The town center, aside from Epispect's building. There's a clock in the middle that rises out of a fountain filled with dirty water. Occasionally coins are found in this fountain, but they don't seem to stay there for long, the lower class people coming by and plucking them from the water. There are a few restaurants and other small businesses around here, run by the people of course.

Off to the side of the square, a large, Gothic style gateway with in old style metal lettering reading 'Aether park' opens up into one of the few, lush and beautiful places left in this barren world. Flowers are abundant as are trees and green grass. The large amount of plants leaving a floral scent lingering in the air, a wonderful contrast to the dirty smells of the city.

Across from where the large Gothic gates to the park resides another gate in a similar fashion. It opens up to a large, round area where many people have set up small stands - offering homemade and home grown goods, along with several different odds and ends here. Some even seem to be selling pokemon and useful trinkets. With a wide smile, each merchant urges you to come and take a gander.

Rumor has it that a strange building has been appearing with each sunset and disappearing with each sunrise. Screams of terror and demented laughter come from this strange, run down building. It's said to be the home of an old, strange and man, who's supposedly as decrepit as the building, long forgotten by the majority of society - calls this his home. While he welcomes any and all people who dare to wander into his home, he doesn't guarantee that one would come back... alive anyway. The glass in the windows are long gone, replaces with shoddy boards nailed to the frames. The doors are hanging off their hinges, creaking when you open them as much as the floor boards as one walks over them. Old paintings hang the walls, glass chandeliers with lit candles hang from the ceilings. It's your classic image of a haunted house.

Seeming to line the outer ring of the fair grounds, several carts, stands and even small food service vans stand, side by side, offering different types of food - from noodles, to ice cream, you can find anything to fix the cravings that ail you.

Off to the side, far from the hustle and bustle of the carnival is a park, tranquil and quiet. With paths dimly lit with strands of gold and silver lights, occasional paper lanterns hanging among the trees, it's a beautiful - and if you see it that way, romantic - place to be. Use it to your advantage.

At the furthest corner from the carnival stands a large black arch, vines with roses crawling up the sides, leading the way into a portion of the park that's set apart by red velvet ropes. Within the valley like park, red paper lanterns hang from trees wires, gracing the area with a romantic ambience. Rapidash drawn carriges wait for couples to purchase a ride, dimly lit dance floors dot the area, a few of them playing slow and charming music to lure dancers in, flame lit torches surrounding the edges. In the center of the park, a lake sits with a dock at one end, swanna boats and rowboats available for rent if a couple so wishes to cruise atop the peaceful waters. Food stands offering warm drinks and food occasionally appear along the walk ways, giving couples plenty of areas for privacy - a lovers paradise.

Learning that the jungle was not the place that you wanted to live, the lower class citizens who are more or less forced to live here in the slums have worked together to make a safe haven above, building small houses and huts on top of older buildings and a network of rickety bridges. It's not the best looking, nor does it seem to be the sturdiest thing in the world, but at least it's safer than hanging around The Jungle.

Hidden away in the depths of The Jungle resides an entrance, guarded by Gijinka who hide in the shadows. Unless you're part of Team Rocket, chances of you happening upon this area are slim to none, and those who aren't are swiftly killed by the guardian Gijinka. Behind the entrance is a long, darkened hallway that leads one to a spiral staircase that leads down to the base itself. A large network of underground hallways and rooms of all sizes and for all uses, including a cafeteria and a training hall. Rumor has it that there's a secret entrance hidden away even more carefully than the main entrance... but if it exists, only one knows of it's whereabouts.

This rather bulky and bland building, made of thick concrete in a square shape, is the 'life blood' of the city, so to say. It provides power to every business, home and well... everything. The area is well guarded, power being a precious and expensive resource in a time like this. Though, if you can slip past the guards, it's rumored that some excellent pokemon lurk within the stone cold walls.

There are three words anyone will tell you before you enter the tunnels - "don't get lost." It's easier said than done, really - The layout of these tunnels more like a expertly crafted labyrinth than and old water way and wire route. The residents of Aether tend to 'fondly' refer to this place as 'The Catacombs', as on occasion, you can find the bones of old residents laying around.

There's a reason behind the people of the city naming the great lake "Antebellum". Unlike many lakes of the day, it existed before the "end of times"... though it was much larger then and had a considerable amount of vegetation growing around its shore. Though it is still beautiful and surrounded with trees and small patches of green grass, it shows how barren the land truly is. The city now uses this as their main source of water, several pipes leading from the lake up to Aether.

This forest certainly lives up to it's name. Like the abandoned sector, there is a thick haze creeping it's way between the trees, both dead and alive, making it hard to navigate your way. Many ghosts seem to enjoy lurking the forest, playing tricks on the poor souls who enter their midst... though that's not all that lurks the forest. Rumor has it that the forest has a vengeful guardian that takes the lives of those who wander so willingly into its forest. Is the risk worth it?
