Modern - Sewers

This underground labyrinth is the very veins and arteries of the city. It is a maze of interlocking and bisecting tunnelways for the combined sewage system, creating a confusing pattern of sub-accessways and pipelines that spill out into the oceanfront treatment plant.

In the dank darkness of the alleys, rumors abound of dangerous creatures and even subhumanoids lurking among the putrid refuse. Children talk of alligators in the sewers and news reports allude to underdwellers peeking from manhole and sewer grating.

There is some truth to these rumors, however. Not necessarily alligators, but homeless folk tend to crowd the uppermost level of the sewer lines for warmth and protection against the topside elements of the ever-changing seasons. What's beneath this land of the lost is anyone's guess.

Constantly being altered, the sewerways seem to never be the same each time they are visited. Only certain denizens of the underdark places can navigate the pipelines efficiently. Treatment Substations are often overseen by machinery only, remotely controlled from the oceanfront Treatment Plant and most technicians are loathe to adventure into the gloom to fix faulty equipment. Something about the dark, disgusting, and dangerous underbelly of the city keeps most normal people away. Only the foolhardy or desperate delve beneath the streets, for there's no telling what lurks below.

World of Darkness
We all know the sewers are the kingdom of various supernatural creatures. Bonegnawers, Black Spiral Dancers, and Ratkin skulk the pipeways waging low wars while Nosferatu creep amongst the shadowy sectors and hiss from the mouths of abandoned sewage lines. Rumors persist among the supernatural of a decrepit, but vast and impressive UnderCity where the Nosferatu gather to discuss matters of state and clan, as well as trade secrets and plots of the upperworlders they spy on.
