SOUTH sites and landmarks |
The South covers a huge region of America, from the east coast stretching all the way to Texas. The South Atlantic states (Florida, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and Delaware) are old colonies. Directly west of them is the East South (Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi and Tennessee), followed by the West South (Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas). Traditionally, the Southern magical folk are aristocratic and chivalrous. The South is the heartland for American vampires, who so often were wealthy slave-holders and plantation owners. The Tribunal - Not actually one location, The Tribunal is a southern organization dedicated to justice. The closest thing to a magical court, the Tribunal was originally a jury of peers for vampires, but now it provides justice for anybody that brings them a worthy case and a modest fee The Tribunal selects a non-partial, multi-racial jury for each case, and every jury member is given a polite notice to show up at the appointed place and date. Antietam - Wakers avoid the site of the Battle of Antietam if they can. There is the densest concentration of ghosts in all of the country, and it's not a pleasant place for a walk. Baton Rouge, LA - A lively city and also the seat of the coven Invictus, chief rival sto the more urban Ordo Dracul to the North. They are old, gracious enemies with very separate boundaries. An Ordo vampire in Invictus territory is treated with warm hospitality and cold disdain, like an obnoxious relative. An Invictus vampire in Ordo territory is treated with open generosity and personal chagrin, like an embarrassing relative. New Orleans, LA - Should you want to study the South's unique blend of Vodou and Shamanism as practiced by then slaves and now freemen, New Orleans is the place to go. These magi come in all stripes and colors, including deities, werewolves, and vampires that have learned the craft. Many local joints cater to wakers, and odds are that the owner is a vampire that'll have Seen you coming before you even show up.
