Chicago...Home of a population of over three million people.
Despite what is known Chicago is not the only corrupt City;
It is not the Second City;
It is not even a distinctly solely American City.
It was all those things once and maybe will be again.
Chicago is Chicago.
It has always had a strange affinity of death about it. It has always had its own elegance. A certain way that a hog butchered here was a 'Chicago' butchered hog. Its broad shouldered way of doing things was as distinctive as a Marshall Fields Gabardine over coat.
But this last year death has come to roost in its winter home. The death toll skyrocketed as the value of both life and the dollar plummetted. Monsters roamed both the light of day and the darkest nights. Chicago's Underworld the vast nebulous entity that was as eponymous as an american made car in detroit took several major hits. The canvas had been torn. The Capo de Capo's of the family that held reign with an iron fist... sent to the next world in a blaze of glory.
The beleagured and beset officers of Chicago's RPIT being threatened with Federal Intervention. Their numbers dwindled to a emaciated levels.
The Lycanthropes scrabbling for cohesion while maintaining their anonymity. Losing their way beneath the weight of disappearances, debacles, and deaths.
The Fae seeking a voice lost to their own machinations.
All the while the Undead sit behind their ivory castles watching as the city broils like the runoff of a charnel house. Their is a plan afoot but will anyone survive the coming storms of winter.
Welcome to Chicago...
Arm yourself.

On the Fast Track « Thread Started on Oct 12, 2009, 6:08pm »
Saphyre was exhausted. She had fast tracked all of her classes during the summer. She had taken a break from work for the new headliner to get worked in and she had been living off her savings and with the condo all to herself she had more time on her hands then she really knew what to do with.
So she had trippled up her classes craming everything in for her degrees. She spent more time at school now then she did in her own condo. She had finished the exams with flying colors. To top it all off she had completed her degrees this year. between online courses night classes and teh classes she took during the day she had made the hours needed and completed the classes. She had even passed teh computer programing course for business.
She looked around the campus now with the eyes of a graduate. courses were finished and she was quite pleased with herself for it. She cashed in her books at the college book rack and sighed at memories. It was always easier to walk away when nothing had taken place. So she was walking away.
She started considering where she would go next and wondered where she should go now she could always rent out the condo and make a few extra bucks that way.
She stopped at the campus resturant grabbing a last meal and sat enjoying her salad and hot tea. Next she would head home and take out a map and throw darts at it. maybe she would audtition Cirque de solie. Or she could go to vegas and find a show and perform there be a new act. She was sure she could find something somewhere.
