Jonquil

  • Population: 1,350,400
  • Country:

Jonquil is the largest city on the western continent. Everything and everyone that is anything resides here. This is where all the action and money are, and the main focus of the city is the company OMNIcorp. Jonquil started out as a smaller city, but the influx of people from the country arriving to make it big grew, and as time went on it swallowed the smaller towns around it. Now the old towns are recalled only in name as different sections of the city.

The city lies in a valley with high mountains on the north and west sides. In the foothills and on the tops of the hills the larger corporate headquarters and upper classes reside. The rest of the ton circles out from a radius there. Jonquil is a large, gated city, with many walls from old gates now swallowed up by growth.

Alvadore

Alvadore is in the southeast part of Jonquil. Located near the main south gate, it is primarily a merchant and middle class section. The largest shopping areas are here- and everything is for sale.

Four Corners

Four Corners is in the center of the city, where the 2 main streets cross. There are some merchants here. This is more an intersection of commerce. As you head to the east, the area grows worse, as you head to the west, it grows better.

Glenwood

Glenwood is one of the worst areas in the city, second only to Green Meadows. This is where the dive bars, run down strip clubs, and underground aspects are located. This once was a nice area, as seen by the crumbling buildings, and a few of the older generation can still recall those times.. but most fled while the area decayed.

Green Meadows

Green Meadows is the second worst place in the city. This is where the racetracks and gambling is at- and every thing you could ever want is here- for a price...

Irving

Irving is on the west side of the south gate. There are merchants here, but are more specialized and bit nicer. Middle class and a few upper middle class make their home here.

Paramount

This is the nicest area of the city. All the upper class and wealthy try to get the scarce land here on the hills for their showcase homes. The central office of OMNIcorp looms overhead on the highest hill, watching over the city from its high vantage point.

Thurston

Thurston is home to the younger set who are moving up quickly in the ranks. It is also home to those who couldn't find land in Paramount, or just not quite wealthy enough. This is the second best area in the city.

Whitaker

This is the artsy and urbane part of town. This is where the artists and like-minded youth like to live and show their work. Sometimes small rebel groups spring up here, so a close watch is kept on activity here.
