Feel free to advertise your pretty little sites here, I'd love to see them. Just make sure to have a forum I can easily advertise back in on your site.
If your site has the clause, "If you advertise on our site, post our advertisement on your site," or "Post our banner on your site before advertising at our site," in its rules, I don't want your business. Advertise elsewhere. No one should have to do your job for you. Advertising is a two-way street, baby.

Bending all the Rules
Because of the amount of new members we've gotten here, I've decided to open up a new in character forum to build confidence between all of our members. This forum, however, will be totally taken out of the plot that we are currently in. Threads in this forum, though you have to use the character that you signed up with, can be in entirely different universes with different themes. Your characters don’t have to have the same personality or actions, though I’d like you to stick to their appearances as they were written. Have fun! I hope this sparks some new friendships here at Second Chances!

City of Genil
The City of Genil is a mountain top city with a large castle of pure white gleaming above it all. As you approach, the sounds of bustling villiagers fill the air. As soon as you walk through the open gates you have arrived. Welcome to the City of Genil.
The past of Genil has faded now and it lays in shambles, broken and bleeding from its battle with Nureese and Anarab. Do you choose to rebuild it with your own hands? Or will you run to the Dark cities and plot its demise? High walls, twenty foot tall, twice as high as they've ever been have risen around the city as of late, with a watch tower at each corner. The front gates of the city are towering marble structures that only open from within, emblazened with the crest of Genil are enormous and require two teams of 5 men to open. Next to the gates, on either side, are towers with soldiers that require you to state your business. Regulars are admitted easily but strangers are questioned heavily before allowed in.

The Arms of Shiiren Hospital and Healing Clinic
Erected in the year 200, The Arms of Shiiren Hospital and Healing Clinic became the main source of healthcare for all of the citizens of Genil. The building rises three stories high into the air with the capacity to comfortably house at least five hundred patients. Focusing mainly on the various types of healing magic along-side healing herbs, the workers here are truly life savers.
Due to the absence of the Elders that usually took care of the Shiiren, the healthcare here has become iffy due to the lack of experience and knowledge of the various nurses that were able to stay through the war.

The Genil River
Gently lapping at the sides of the bank, the Genil river lays before you. Boats are docked on either side of the narrow river, leading to and from whereever you may need to go. The main river comes in from the ocean and branches out in several different directions once it travels through the city. These small but formidable rivers range from depths deep enough to wade through and shallow enough to walk through, then lead into the forests and mountains surrounding Genil.

Riverside Elementary and High School
Genil has always addressed the needs of their youth and instituted the Riverside elementary and high school during the first decades after its creation. A two large one story buildings are connected by a breezy walkway and feature a large playground and courtyard area for the students. The entire structure is surrounded by an eight foot high wall of shrubbery to keep the children in and undistracted during the school day, completed by a large iron gate emblazoned with the letters “RS” in large script. To the rear of the school, beyond the wall of evergreen shrubs, is the lazily flowing Genil river.

Town Square
In the middle of Genil stands a tall gray stone castle with a balcony facing the town square. This is where the Elders address the citizens of Genil if there is an announcement that needs to be made. Also located in this castle is the center of military operations. Also located in the town square is a large fountain in the middle, around fifteen foot in diameter which sends a continuous spray of water high into the air. Around these landmarks are various shops and markets, for all the needs of the citizens of Genil.

Genil Library
Literature of the ages can be found here, collected as time in this world has moved forward. Books, scrolls, and other written works of all description and variety can be found here. Large open spaces, tall shelves, and ladders decorate the inside of the multi-storied, ancient architecture. The peak of the building houses a trio of large bells, long rusted over and seemingly unuseable.

Remembrance Art Gallery
Moderator:
Lawrence Grimmel
This is the art studio and gallery of Lawrence Grimmel, Genil's own tortured artist. Come in and view his dark and macabre paintings and meet the man behind them. On the ground level is an expansive gallery with two large glass windows on either side of the door, covered by curtains at night, they open during the day to reveal an ever growing exhibition of paintings. On the second level of the old shop is the loft and home of the artist himself, a single room studio apartment.

The Blessing in the Flask
Owned By Krysm Saron, the Blessing is your usual bar-tavern-inn with a few exceptions. Children are allowed inside, so long as they order off the correct menu, and every now and then, some under the counter transactions may take place. A live band plays each night and the friendly owner is more than willing to strike up a conversation with anyone who walks through her doors, so long as their intentions are good.

The Festival Of Lights
April 2, 300
The Festival of Lights has risen in Genil overnight. Tonight, your deepest dreams may come true but only if you allow them to. Enjoy the extraordinary event while it lasts because for one night and one night only... The Festival of Lights has begun.
If your character was introduced to this world or born here after 300, you are not allowed to post in this forum. It simply wouldn't fit into the timeline.

The Temple of Fuliteach
Moderator:
Kentaro Maeda
Listen to the vibrant words of Kentaro Maeda here as he praises Fuliteach, the Goddess of Blood and Gore. The Temple is large in nature with ample room for all of the citizens of Genil and is attended regularly by those who crave the violence. Perhaps here you'll find a new purpose for living in this shattered town, or maybe you'll merely find yourself imprisoned for your past crimes.

City of Nureese
This is the darker city of the two, filled with grit and crime from one end to the other. The city itself reeks of toxic fumes from the abundance of factories and an odd green ooze has been seen on the streets. The Council has lost control of Nureese and here, the wild roam free...
Nureese is also more technologically advanced than the other two cities.

Red Lotus
Moderator:
BellaBorden
Vampires and other creatures of the night can let it all hang out, drink a pint or two while enjoying the unique and exquisite furnishings of the "Red Lotus" Humans should not wander here, unless accompanied by an owner. More laid back than most night clubs, the Lotus was build for sensuality, not action, and provides a quiet, elegant setting for its regulars. Then again, sometimes the company can get a little frisky...

The Ikki! Ikki! Night Club
Owned by Seren Jewel Void, the Ikki! Ikki! Is the scene for all of the major late night action Nureese. Cage matches, exotic dancers, strippers even haunt this Demon's bar. Rumors of a reigning violet clad fighter strike fear into some and encite a need to challenge her in others. Come in for a good time that you'll not soon forget!

Abandoned Power Plant
Buried deep inside the heart of Nureese is an abandoned power plant, possibly the source of the green goo on the ground. The plant has five different warehouses around it, each desolate and empty, save for the rats that scurry around. Surrounded by a twelve foot high chain link fence with barb wire at the top, one must wonder what they were trying to keep out.. Or, keep in.

Powerplant Warehouses
Surrounding the abandoned powerplant, several warehouses are lined up. What they contain (or if they contain anything at all) is unknown. Each of the five warehouses are large, with at least 100x100 foot dimensions. Made of the strongest steel, they're a good place to house or hide most any activity. The standing green goo that haunts most of Nureese can be traced back to the barbwire fence that surrounds both the powerplant and the warehouses. So, if you're looking for the answer to the small mystery of the goo.. Be sure to bring a pair of wire cutters. You'll need them!

Underground Crypt
Beneath the toxic streets of Nureese looms a history, a history of man-made corridors and shelved graves. Neatly cornered walkways create a simple, easy maze. An unnatural green yellow ambient light pours along the way, leading a guests steps to a singular lone room: an underground cemetary. Dirty white crosses protude from numerous unmarked graves at varying angles. Nureese's dead lie here, proving that even after a second chances, there are those of us who don't survive. Could this be attributed to the race of creatures that stalk the Nureese alleys before the sun rises in the morning? Or... Is it merely an unfortunate turn of events?

Nureese Hospital
The Nureese Hospital looks like any other hospital you'd find in any city. It's a large gray and white building with five stories and over all, everything seems normal. Until you hear the moans and the rumors of experiments. If you search hard enough, you could find the source of the sounds and possibly something you don't want to see. It's up to you, really...

Dulci Lake
It what is hidden that makes something dangerous rather than what shows on the outside. The Dulci lake appears calm and sedate on the surface, as if it is untouched by the pollution that seems to bring havok upon the rest of the city. Large, expansive, and lowly inhabited, the lake is the perfect hiding spot for something... anything really.

City of Anarab
Anarab is an Arabian style city, filled to the brim with seduction and old style sin. Sandstone buildings rise out of the sand, towering above the flat surrounding deserts. Heat and trouble rise easily with the rising sun in Anarab. Be cautious of this city, you may not leave with your heart or body intact.

Anarab Park
Children's excited yells could once be heard echoing from this playground, but no longer does that happen. Swings, slides, and an old merry-go-round sit useless and unmoving in this desert-like town, sand sweeping over them all and burying the memories of long ago, when Anarab was innocent.

Inner-City Sand Dunes
In the confines of a small stretch of the city, sand dunes roll as short hills. Ruffians in buggies can often be found here, racing or performing stunts. Feel free to join in, but do so at your own risk. You wouldn't be the first to make a mistake and fall prey to injury, nor would you be the first to be forced into injury by a rival. The only respect found here is from earning it in competition.

Kedar Casino
The Kedar Casino was once owned by a short, stout man named Kedar, no last name included. Years later, it was transformed from a one level, one room casino to a ten story high rise casino with a different show on each of the ten stories' stages! All forms of gambling can be found here and the riches are untold, until the bodyguards kick you out.

Anarab’s Night Carnival
Anarab's Night Carnival is complete with all of the elements of any old fashioned carnival, including wooden roller coasters and a carousel with lifelike carved horses. This carnival only appears at night, however, and the grounds are desolate and desserted during the day. But once sundown hits again, the sounds of music and the smell of cotton candy becomes thick in the air.

The hotel itself is 8 stories high with a penthouse suite located on the 8th story. This room is only rented out to those who have plenty of money to pay for it, in advance.

Located outside of the protective walls of Genil, a moderately sized cottage rests, white picket fence included. There are the remains of a massive garden along the sides of the walkway to the front door. Here is the home of Crystal Dinaia, modest and usually silent. Things have changed for the Elder in the past years, but if you're needing help, she'll be more than willing to do her best.

Genil - Julian's House
Trim, white, three stories and surrounded by neatly kept roses, Julian Chance's house would have been an elegant addition to Victorian England, if more than a touch eccentric and decadently made of pale marble. The entrance stairs are well swept, polished copper railings, which are kept gleaming by students in detention. Dark blue drapes, held back with golden ties, and all of this posh attitude is often ruined by an open front door with a students sitting around on the stairs as a blue haired man tries to find just the right book or story to answer their questions.

An enormous building rises from the sandy landscape, elaborate and dangerous from its very appearance. It is here that the Donia works her ways, though few know if she can actually be found here. Nevertheless, the building seems to be unguarded to the naked eye, however, those entering without direct ties to the Collection could be signing their own death certificate.
