testdrive | welcome to the new age.

1. First Day At Falner
You have just arrived at Falner Estate, a sprawling, beautiful, 400-hectare co-located space between Britain, Germany, and the Philippines, and the main base of Netsach. The flora and fauna in the area gives both a sense of familiarity as it looks at first glance like things you’ll find on Earth, and a weird sense of otherworldliness. Given the size of the place, the Estate is less of a compound and more like a town unto itself. The older buildings within the estate are gothic in their construction, and clear throwbacks to 19th Century Europe. The newer facilities, however, sport cutting edge contemporary designs that were clearly inspired by Fourth World architecture and technology.

If you want a better idea on what can be found on the estate, you can refer to this link.


2. A Day On The Job
You are pushing papers at Methuselah, doing research at the Arcanum, or going out on patrol -- whatever it is that you're doing, it's just another day for you as a Hunter of the Vigil.


3. Let's Head Down to Haven
Find yourself itching for a night out on the town? Why not head over to Haven, the classy nightclub that looks like a large, monolithic black building with no visible windows from the outside and the name of the club emblazoned in bold, white letters on one side.

Haven is located in Makati City, and is open to the public (especially the local supernatural community), but you might want to prepare yourself to wait in line for a very, very long time – unless you’re a Hunter, of course.

Falner’s Maenad Division holds office on top of Haven, as does Ordo Daywalker. Some of Haven’s staff also live above the night club.


4. The Awakening
Want to tag out your character's origin story? Set the stage and let's see where things go.

She knows enough about the world that had existed under what humanity used to know to be incredibly cautious about it. Humans, in her opinion, don't mix too well with creatures who can snap them like a dry twig swept onto a busy highway. Oh she's curious no doubt, but she also likes living and the freedom that she's acquired in structuring her life to suit her. After all you can either take the reigns or let the Forces That Be do it for you.

Thankful that her line of work has yet to brush her up too much against a world that she does somewhat fear, she's comfortable enough both in casual circumstance and her own skin to not mind in a place like this. She's also terribly, terribly bored. Which is why after taking as much time as she reasonably could in the bathroom, Morgan swept up to the bar not so much with an eye to catch eyes but to wile away a few more minutes with something that didn't include long, gossipy stories about stockholders and who may or may not be diddling their secretary.

Not that such information isn't valuable, but she usually knows long before other people do anyway. Information, after all, is also a valuable commodity even if it is to be used sparingly.

"You know," she takes a seat next to the cigarette smoking stranger, "I can't decide if you're trying to go unnoticed or simply decided on the futility of it." It's a passing, slightly amused, comment and is spoken as such as she flags down the lady behind the bar. The sort of opener that could be shrugged off and left untouched and the speaker knows it as such.

He lifts an eyebrow at her approach and the fact that she's coming around to join him, but smiles at her words before turning back to scan the crowd. Yes, he doesn't tense up. No, he doesn't seem to care about the fact that Morgan is sitting down with him, and attempting to start a conversation. Maybe he was about to get as bored as Morgan is now, but now that that might change...

"If I really had to answer, then I suppose it's the latter."

She's a new face at Haven. New is always fun.
