New York City
The Big Apple. City that never sleeps. Clichés, but with a ring of truth to them.
The New York portion of the grid is laid out according to the actual city, although with mostly made-up specifics such as stores, restaurants, and apartment buildings. You also have the option of using our off-grid RP rooms to make up whatever setting you like, so long as it's IC.
New York is fast-paced, loud, and diverse. There are 8.1 million people who live in New York, and they come from all walks of life and many different starting points. Immigrants are plentiful, as are Americans from across the country. New Yorkers are often going to be loathe to strike up conversations with random strangers and are often intent on their own business. There is always something to do – clubs, bars, theatre, charity, museums, restaurants, sports events, concerts, education, libraries. Central Park even offers options for more outdoor-based activities.
New York is made up of five boroughs: Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island. Most of the gameplay tends to take place in Manhattan and Queens (where Emerson University is located).
