the streets of seoul are no strangers to organized crime, but it's never been quite like this. following a slew of political scandals and the resulting impeachments, the nation fell into turmoil — ushering in an era of rampant crime and institutional incompetence. with the country in shambles, a decades-old mob called uraeus rapidly gained influence; feeding off of the state’s widespread amorality by welcoming dozens of new recruits as well as finding several footholds within the increasingly disorganized government system. but local law enforcement refuses to taking things sitting down, vowing to make up for their previous inefficiencies by dismantling uraeus once and for all — even if it means beating the mob at their own game.

CRAVE

a staple of the seoul nightlife, this upscale club is one of uraeus' most lucrative establishments — offering a myriad of services to those who can afford them. supervised by the prostitution executor.

BEAU RIVAGE

boasting 240 rooms ( 50 of which are suites ), this mob-owned luxury hotel cum casino is rivaled by none in both facilities and demand across the entirety of seoul. supervised by the gambling and loan sharking executor.

LABYRINTH

originally built for the purpose of training foot soldiers and recruits, a functionality it serves to this day, this underground structure has since evolved to include uraeus' very own combat arena. supervised by the recruitment and initiation executor.

ODDITY

perhaps the most widely known underground club owned by the mob, oddity has not only become a hub for uraeus' drug trade, but prime hunting ground for new recruits as well.

THE HIVE

a highly secure duplex located just two blocks away from SMPA HQ, the hive serves as a home to task force serpens and will continue to do so for as long as the operation stands.

SOLAR BOULEVARD

sleek and imposing, this high rise of glass and steel houses uraeus headquarters under the harmless guise of an insurance company.

FABLED

a far cry from starbucks, this lesser-known café is well-loved by those who know of it. decked out in homey decor and serving drinks that would make any coffee connoisseur weep, fabled has rapidly gained a loyal clientele.

THE MAPLE

open twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, and with all-day breakfast to boot — this small, out-of-the-way diner serves as a sanctuary to anyone who might need it.

THE HAT

this pub is one of the few places that could truly be considered neutral territory. catering to the mob, the police force, and civilians alike, the drinks ome cheap — but the price for violating the peace would be a shot to the shoulder fired by the owner himself.

→ can my character be a double agent?
we're sorry to say that they may not. the admins have agreed not to allow any such characters in order to make the plot, as well as the upcoming events, easier to keep track of.
→ do you have any career suggestions for a civilian character?
as uraeus controls the vast majority of seoul's sex trade, muses working as prostitutes are more than welcome. you may also have a look at the different locations provided as they could serve as possible places of employment.
→ are uraeus prostitutes classified as members of the mob?
they are not. they work for the mob, but they aren't a part of it.
→ are the cetus allowed to leave the hive in between operations?
yes, but they must be accompanied by their handler at all times.
