Places



Dining
Heirloom


Website

Owned by: __________
A popular date spot in Hong Kong. Many patrons, both supernatural and human alike, claim (or joke) that the place has some form of love spell mixed in with their food. Whether or not the claims are true is unknown.


HOMES
There are many residential options within Hong Kong, but these are the common places for the supernatural community. For potential neighbor plotting, you may refer to the housing list.
Mansfield Quarters

Located on Mansfield Road at Victoria Peak (Mount Austin). Like all homes at The Peak, securing a place at Mansfield Quarters can be costly. The units are larger and equipped with excellent facilities, however, and residents are availed of better security than what they would get at most other apartments in the city.

Palatial Crest

Located right beside the Central District. Units here are comparatively small with old but well-maintained facilities. Many choose this option because of its price and its good location. The convenience of being close to a business district appeals to its residents, despite the added security risks that come with it.


LEISURE
HONG KONG DISNEYLAND RESORT


Website

Hong Kong Disneyland Resort encompasses a theme park, two hotels, and Inspiration Lake. Due to the Lady of the City's influence, Hong Kong Disneyland is one of the Council's sources of income, which goes into housing new immigrants, funding scholarships, and other things to help sustain the supernatural community.


NIGHT LIFE
AQUA SPIRIT


General Information

Owned by: __________
A bar opened by the shapeshifter pack leader some two years ago. Since then it's become the central headquarters for official shifter business. The busy atmosphere of the bar and the events held periodically at the establishment provide a good cover for all activities that are slightly shadier in nature. Aqua Spirit has been used to nettle the vampire community by hosting ironically themed parties or inviting strippers of the shapeshifter variety to "outdo" the strip clubs owned by the undead faction.

CLUB CUBIC


General Information

Owned by: NPC OWNED.
It created much hype within the supernatural community before its supernatural owner mysteriously disappeared shortly after its opening. Speculations formed, including a theory that radicals treat the place as hunting ground. Because of this, some supernaturals are apprehensive about coming here. Others, on the other hand, find even more appeal in the place's sense of danger. Based on the establishment in Macau. Located in Hong Kong in-game.

DIVINO

Owned by: Kwon Jiyong
A vampire-owned high end strip club, Divino is also among the rare establishments that feature both male and female dancers. There are strict rules against prostitution among the staff, meaning no propositioning, no suggesting dates, no asking for numbers, and obviously, no sex. Some take this as a challenge not to get caught, so there have been a few attempts. Even fewer have been successful. Based on the establishment in Macau. Located in Hong Kong in-game.

THE BLOOD DEN


Owned by: Kwon Jiyong
Right down into the basement of the extravagant and loud Divino, a vampire heaven can be found. Divided between clubbing and dining/hangout areas, The Blood Den includes stunning interior design, beautiful staff and a world-class music line-up. The menu is composed of a large number of willing, paid humans.

NOOCH BAR

Owned by: ________
A classy bar with soft plush couches for people to get comfortable after work, the dim light adds to the sultriness of the surroundings giving the place a comfortable ambiance. There are semi-private rooms with blinds that let people peek at the action going on on the inside. They serve a good amount of drinks, ranging from gourmet coffees to chardonnays. For something cogent and potent, try the Chinese spirits – but beware the 52 percent alcohol content, the signature drink being "Blue Aqua". The bar has DJs during the late hours and a live band and singers earlier in the night.

SOIREE


General Information

Owned by: ________
Soiree is a low key bar owned by a human who has/had some connection to the supernatural world. Though the specifics of their connection remains unclear, whatever it was moved them to open an establishment that could work as a neutral ground for all races. Soiree maintains a strict 'no violence' policy that most folk in the community respect because it has the sanction of Hong Kong's Lady, and it is often frequented by those looking for rumors or information.


RELIGION
Pak Tai Temple (Wan Chai)


More Pictures

Head priest: __________
Pak Tai Temple is a place of worship that started with very traditional roots but somehow became a place of solace for various members of the supernatural community regardless of personal beliefs, religions, or race. People come to pray, to ask for forgiveness, or to find answers. What humans that do attend Pak Tai Temple don't seem to be widely aware of just how diverse the attending community is.


SCHOOLS
Within Hong Kong there are three different schools that most of the supernatural community gravitate towards:
Hong Kong International School


Middle School (Grades 6-8) and High School (Grades 9-12) Website | School Calendar

Hong Kong International School is the pricier of the two secondary education schools with an annual tuition of anywhere between $155,700 - $180,900 HK ($20,000 - $23,000 USD). There are a multitude of fundraisers and scholarships available courtesy of the Council that make the school more affordable to the supernatural community, but on the whole attending HKIS can be rather expensive.

South Island School


Primary School (Grades 1-6) and Secondary School (Grades 7-13) Website | School Calendar

South Island School is the less expensive of the two secondary education schools commonly attended by the supernatural community. Tuition sits anywhere between $66,100 - $102,000 HK ($8,500 - $13,100 USD) and scholarships are also available for this school via the Council.

The University of Hong Kong


Website | School Calendar

While there are many different colleges and universities to attend within Hong Kong, the University of Hong Kong remains the one most attended by the supernatural community.


SHOPS
Allure Living


Website | General Information

Owned by: ________
With three storeys of trinkets, fragrances, and home furnishings on display, Allure Living is one of the most well-known gift shops in the city. It is also known to provide many supernatural immigrants part-time employment until they have settled properly into the city. There are whispers of some employees being paid in kind instead of money, but this is mostly unconfirmed.

Location Name: Hong Kong Museum of History
Type (school/night life/shop/etc.): Culture
Chief curator: Cade Lu
Description: one, two, three. website, general information

Located in Tsim Sha Tsui, this museum preserving Hong Kong's historical and cultural heritage has been helmed for the past three years by a vampire. Although his true identity is kept largely a secret from humans, it does create a false sense of safehouse for the supernatural community. That is, of course, unless they're shapeshifters.
