Original Sin

Eden. Silver City. City of Glass.

Locations of Eden

The City of Eden

The final sanctuary of mankind that has been isolated from the rest of the planet via a mysterious barrier. Nobody alive has any idea how this barrier works, but it has fulfilled its purpose and faithfully shielded the million plus residents of the city for centuries. Eden itself is split into three distinct sections, and ruled by a group known as the Council of Seven.

Tower to Heaven

A titanic tower of white marble in the center of Eden that seems extend infinitely into the sky. This is where the Council of Seven meet to discuss the governance of the city and plan out it’s future course. In that sense it could be considered the heart of Eden.

Upper Levels - Paradiso

The highest levels of Eden where the nobility and richest members reside. Not much information is known to the passes, only that it is practically a paradise where any and all needs are provided for. It is everybody’s dream to one day make their way up here.

Middle Levels - Purgatorio:

By far the largest section of Eden, and home to the majority of its citizens. Here, the people live peaceful, ordinary day to day lives. Industry, agriculture, research, education, commerce… everything is focused here on this level.

Lower Levels - Inferno:

The lowest levels of Eden, to the point where half of it is submerged underground; This is where the poorest citizens live and where criminals are exiled. ‘Out of sight, out of mind’ seems to be the general attitude towards this section from the remaining two. A bare minimum of supplies is allocated to this section, leading to much conflict over those scant resources. On the other hand, as might be expected of the place all the criminals are exiled to, there is a thriving criminal underbelly. Gangs control huge swaths of territories, and turf wars are both common and extremely deadly. A single member of The Council of Seven is tasked with the governance of this level; however despite their best efforts this is too much work for one person; the official government forces here are often overworked and stretched too thin. This is where you begin your journey.

Organizations in Eden

The Council of Seven

The ruling party of Eden, seven individuals who govern sections of the city. Or to be more specific, six people who govern, and one who assists the six. Three members are in charge of the upper levels, two members are in charge of the middle levels, and only a single member governs the lower levels. It is unknown how one is selected for these positions when one of the seats needs replacing, but the transition always happens quickly and quietly.

Seven Sins

One of the two major gangs that rule over Inferno. An organization with a rather extensive structure system, as well as numerous rules and regulations. An odd group that claims to have a code of honor and are thus ‘noble criminals’. This is somewhat true for a given value, and they enjoy minor popularity among the normal citizens leaving in Inferno. However make no mistake. The members in this gang are ruthless, cruel, and without mercy. Against ‘enemies’, they make sure to thoroughly and utterly destroy them in as painful a fashion as possible to send a message to any other would be challengers.

Night Parade

The second of the two major gangs that rule over Inferno. If the Seven Sins can be considered a highly regimented army, the Night Parade would be an unruly mob. Not so much an organization as a large collection of people with similar mindsets and goals. What they lack in quality against the Seven Sins they make up in quantity with plenty to spare. However, due to the extremely loose nature of this gang, the threat and competence of its members can vary greatly.

Notable Individuals
