World Building for Austin, TX in the dudes universe
High Concept : Beacon of Light in the Deep South
Trouble : Encroaching Authoritarianism
A good amalgamation of natural and supernatural inhabitants
Camarilla - working on making a power play in the city
Anarchs - transplants from Silicon Valley
Bone Gnawers - higher concentration than average
Hunters - arriving and organizing in the city
Locations and Inhabitants of interest
Pavlov's Bell, Coffee Shop
-Art(y) the hipster human owner
-Carolina Sanchez the long-suffering barista (hit on by Steven's emo artist)
State Capitol and Surrounding Areas
-Edna metaphorically soulless secretary and Ventrue Ghoul
-Senator John Whitmire (D), state level senator and (unknowingly) possibly kinfolk. His attempts to bring decency and order to the city have been met with resistance from the supernatural community (Vampire) and his own grasping, politicking family
-Beverly Whitmire the wife of Sen. attempted to leave him and was briefly kidnapped by forces unknown. (kidnapper dispatched by Jason
with extreme prejudice)
Hotel Fairmont (0.75 stars on Trip Advisor)
-Caves under Austin reach disturbingly close to the sub basement of the hotel (Camazotz)
-Kyla (Sara) Cult of Ecstasy Mage (Arete 2)
-9 Finger Jim (Gary Messner) the ex-Marine night manager
Foundation for the Homeless
-Pastor Carlos (Celestial Chorus) trying to make the world a better place through rehabilitation and social work
-Dr. Theresa Smith (Salubri) volunteer staff doctor (shelter provides Herd 1-2)
IKEA
-Mary/Maurice Escher fabulous glasswalker interior designer (F to M trans) (Vegan)
-Leonardo illegal Nosferatu janior (Works wonders on the stores pest problem)
-Carlos store manager who works hard to keep the location afloat (slave to his employees)
Shady Oaks Trailer Park
-Bobby (hunter) lives here
-Adams character lives here
Threats
Hunters
Marginalized liberal groups
Narrow-minded politicians
Encroaching Orthodoxy
Themes
Keep it Weird
Bastion of Light
Motley Crew (from Angela's perspective)
Steven - Whiny Artist
Jason - Racist Ghost Politician
Adam - Paranoid Nutbar
Angela - Insane Vagrant
'Plot' so far
Senator Whitmire's wife was kidnapped by unknown, possibly supernaturally motivated, assailant. Likely to black mail her husband. Mrs. Whitmire herself had recently left her husband (because he isn't a political sleazebag). The group was vaguely looking for the perpetrators, and the Malkavian vagrant wanted to join forces with the Garou to protect the senator. (Regardless of Garou interest, because he is insane.)
