Map & Places of Interest

Map of the Planet:


• Zones outside of the city can be reached by the teleporters located along the borders of the city.
• Descriptions of the Climate Zones can be found here.
• Keep in mind that any terrain not under a protected bubble is toxic, and may be fatal to your character. We won't stop you from being nosy, but do so at your own risk.

Map of the City:


Places of Interest
The East Side
• The Hospital → This is where you wake up. It's your typical, everyday hospital, just futurized.
• Apartment Complexes #1 & #2 → When you exit the hospital, you will find two buildings. One to your left and one to your right. These apartment buildings are where you'll be staying initially; basically default housing. The card you receive when you wake up has your room number printed on it, as well as which complex it's located in.
• The Suburbs → Located in the Northeast section of the city, is a high-end living area. It's just a like a normal suburb with houses that have front yards, backyards, etc. Each house has anywhere from 3-5 bedrooms. The area is also gated with extra security. Be prepared to pay a high price to live here. No renters here-- these houses are only available for purchase.

The Park
• Lakeside Lofts → Within the park area are a set of loft apartments that are available for rent. They are set up so they offer a beautiful view of the lake. Each building offers 5 floors of loft apartments, with each loft taking up one floor. Because of the view rent is a little higher than other apartments around the city.
• Park → It's a normal park. You'll find the most of the greenery around here. Relax, have a picnic, or even go fishing at the lake! A playground for the kiddies can be found here as well. Because of the great expanse of the area, there are concerts, shows, and many other festivities held here.

The West Side
• The Market District → Located in the Northwest end of the city, you'll find various shops. Clothing, food, furniture, electronics-- you name it, they've got the store for you! A few of the stores you'll find here are:
  • Fab Foods, the largest building in the district is a rather large grocery store located at the center of it all. You can find anything and everything for your cooking and eating needs! Just ask one of the shopping droids if you need help.
  • At Threads, you'll find all your apparel needs. You'll find shoes and clothing at unbeatable prices!
  • If you're in need of a computer, cell phone, mp3 player, appliances, or anything of the sort, be sure to check out The Circuit! It's your one stop shop for electronics!
  • Need furniture for your new pad? Look no further! Modern Living provides all the furniture you need from living rooms to bedrooms.
• The Library → Need to do some research? The Library offers a wide expanse of research data (ie. history from each of your characters' worlds, the "history" of the city, encyclopedias, etc.), as well as literary classics from past to present. The only difference is that instead of physical books, all selections can be downloaded from various "ports" within the library onto your journal. Each download is good for a one-week period, and after that it will be deleted from your device.
• Marketside Condominiums → Also in the Northwest section of the city are a row of condominiums available for rent or for purchase. Each condominium has anywhere from 2-3 bedrooms. Because of its close proximity to the Market District and the Library, it's perfect for anyone on-the-go!

The South Side
• The Junkyard → Gated, but always open. Your characters are free to search and tinker with things from here. It's mostly scraps of metal and non-working androids.

*** TAKE NOTE THAT THERE ARE ALSO OTHER PLACES AVAILABLE FOR RENT. VARIOUS BUILDINGS AROUND THE CITY OFFER APARTMENTS ABOVE THE GROUND FLOOR BUSINESSES/SHOPS, USUALLY ABOUT 3-4 APARTMENTS ABOVE THE GROUND FLOOR. THESE APARTMENTS ARE GENERALLY CHEAPER THAN THE LOFTS, CONDOS, AND SUBURBAN HOUSES. ALL OF THESE APARTMENTS HAVE 1-2 BEDROOMS.

Other Places Worth Mentioning
• The Bank of Aliunde → Your account is accessible at any one of the the institutions located in the city. Deposits can be made at any time using the ATMs found throughout the city.
• Flying Fast Convenience Stores → You can find basic necessities, snacks, and things of the sort in here. They are located throughout the city, in the Southeast and Southwest areas.
• The Blue Moon Cafe → The original cafe is located in Southwest end of the city. It offers pastries, sandwiches, and coffee. Other locations throughout the city only offer coffee and pastries and are significantly smaller. Think of it like the Starbucks of Aliunde.
• Mabel's Diner → A 24-hour diner located in Southeast area of the city. It features a full menu of food served all day and all night.

THE FOLLOWING PLACES ARE FOR CHARACTERS OVER THE AGE OF 17
• Three Wise Men → A famous local pub with two locations-- one in the Southwest end of the city, and another in the Southeast end. Both serve food and drinks. Feel free to hang out and have a good time here! Happy Hour is from 5pm to 7pm, Monday through Friday with drink specials.
• Storm → The most popular nightclub in the city. It's also located in the Southwest area of the city. Local DJs drop beats nightly. Ladies Night is every Thursday-- no cover all night, and drinks are 1/2 off.
• The Buttery Nipple → Aliunde's local strip club, located in Southeast part of the city. It's not a dingy place, just a small section blocked off for "adult" entertainment. No alcoholic beverages are served here, but you are welcome to BYOB!
