The City of Ethera
TW/CW - Mentions of drug use, slavery, violence, etc.
INSPIRED BY - Arcane (Show), Cyberpunk 2077 (Game), General places such as Times Square, Kabukicho, Mong Kok, Heukseok Market, etc.
The main currency of Ethera and Tartera are bronze, silver, and gold coins.
Ethera is a large city, covered in neon signs and towering buildings for miles. Pretty from afar, for aesthetics at least. But the city itself is crime filled, dirty, filled with poverty and corruption.
The local government doesn’t really do anything; the mayor is useless, the police force is corrupt, no one bothers to clean up the city or help those on the streets.
There are all types of citizens in Ethera, from humans to half animal hybrids to demons and other strange beings. Of course there’s some discrimination among these species, but it isn’t impossible to get along with others.
Once Ethera couldn’t expand outwards further, they constructed buildings in the large caverns beneath the ground. This is simply referred to “The Undercity of Ethera” or “Tartera.”
The Undercity of Ethera is even more crime filled than Ethera itself, filled with black markets, drug users, and even an uncontrollable slave market in the deepest, darkest parts of the city. Tartera is said to be the “poor” part of Ethera, and practically has its own local government, due to the fact Ethera has basically abandoned the undercity. A large elevator connects Ethera and Tartera, but there are secret tunnels and entrances for those who want to avoid attention.
It’s rarely sunny, and even then Ethera’s tall buildings make it hard to see. It’s almost always cloudy, occasionally raining, and usually cold but depending on the part of the city, the overwhelming amount of neon lights generates some heat to warm the air.
