[QUOTE="Wik, post: 4022347, member: 40177"] Hm. A few more... [b]The Citadel[/b], from the video game Mass Effect. An ancient city that orbits the stars, built 50,000 years ago by a now extinct forerunner race. It houses millions of souls, and functions as the centre of galactic government. The closer you get to the centre, where the docks are, the lower the gravity gets. The citadel is great because it is a place where ambassadors and travellers from the entire universe rub shoulders. Back alley deals and financial trades are made here, as are criminal organizations and assassin syndicates. And there's always the Keepers, a strange race of aliens that communicate with no one, and move from location to location, maintaining the machinery that keeps the Citadel in existence. *** I also like Eberron's [b]Karlakton[/b], which is where my current campaign is set. The city is situated on a river, and on the other side of the river is a veil of necromantic mist that functions as the gateway into the mournland. The entire city was hit hard during the last war, and many revolutionaries and black cults fight against the Karnnathi military (which is itself trying to reorganize after an internal schism with the Blood of Vol). Imagine an industrial city of gothic architecture, falling apart at the seams, with a heavy dose of paranoia and depression. [/QUOTE]
