The vast territory of California, ruled with an iron fist by Lord Sebastian Alexander. Once the golden state of dreams, now a carefully controlled domain where humans serve their Strigele masters. The territory encompasses major cities, breeding facilities, and industrial zones all designed to maximize efficiency and control.
A unique establishment that serves as both a strip club and a sanctuary. The main building houses the club where Strigele come to feed and indulge their vices, while the extensive trailer park community behind it provides homes for werewolves, shifters, and fae who have banded together for protection and survival.
Sterile, industrial complexes designed for the systematic breeding and cultivation of humans. These facilities ensure a steady blood supply for the Strigele population through careful genetic selection and population management. They represent the coldest aspect of the new world order.
A vast network of tunnels, abandoned subway systems, and hidden passages that connect resistance cells across the territories. These underground highways allow for the movement of people, supplies, and information away from Strigele surveillance.
Fortified locations where resistance cells establish semi-permanent bases. These strongholds serve as command centers, weapon caches, and safe houses for humans, wolves, shifters, and fae who refuse to submit to Strigele rule. They're constantly under threat of discovery.
Vast stretches of abandoned territory where the aftermath of The Revelations is most visible. Ruined cities, abandoned towns, and scorched earth serve as reminders of the swift and brutal transition of power. These areas are largely uninhabitable but sometimes hide valuable resources.
Heavily fortified positions that control movement between territories and monitor trafficking of both people and resources. These checkpoints ensure that the Strigele maintain absolute control over population movement and prevent large-scale resistance coordination.
Small communities of those who exist between the Strigele world and the resistance - the Outliers. These settlements operate in a careful balance, providing services to both sides while maintaining their independence through useful neutrality and strategic positioning.
