being dropped off in ghost city, whether it's via a portal or something else entirely, gets you dropped right in the middle of utter cacophony. you stand in the middle of a market that seems to stretch on as far as the eye can see, the darkness above your head mitigated by bright red lanterns, and the sights and sounds of a city. rather than humans, however, everyone around you seems to be some sort of... creature, of some kind. demons like caterpillars slither between your feet; a butcher with the head of a pig loudly hawks his wares, a stew made from "meat freshly slaughtered!" (is that a human leg sticking out of the pot?), and other creatures hustle and bustle past you. ghostly women with three eyes shout for your attention, lifting their silks when you look too close, and merchants crow about demon's blood cures and real dragon scale jewelry that's definitely not cursed. medicine, charms for fortune, for potency, for romance, curses for your enemies, poisons, and fine black market goods - it seems if you want it, and it's not normal, you can probably find it here.

down the street rises the gambling den, a large, raucous building, where you can gamble your time away, and further down than that, paradise manor looms, casting its eerie red glow over the entirety of the city. without a mask, you probably can't blend in. maybe get one? or... maybe wander the city? head for the gambling den? peruse the wares?

whatever it is, it seems your on your own...at least for a little while. welcome to ghost city! ]
