Symbia (location)

Symbia overview here
==Cities==
A city tends to be built in a rough square, suiting the needs of four types of lifestyle.
===Tactile===
The tactile specs are focused on each other in a physical way. They spend great amounts of time mating, cuddling, quietly talking, and tend to live nude or flimsily dressed. They live in one-room homes, even in groups of ten or more, share showers on open balconies, and in essense hold little or no sense of 'personal space'.
===Sensory===
The sensory specs are obsessed with the mind. They enjoy movies, games, sims, the Ayars, and the sciences. The lok of a city is almost always located within this area. Homes here are wired to supply triple the usual energy grid, and data feed holos are seen everywhere.
===Brutish===
The 'brute' specs are combatative, quick to anger, and tend to fight in response to every stimulii. To celebrate, solve differences, relieve bordom, seal relationships, and of course, to train for future combat: the brutes live in constant war. An arena is a common sight central to the brute district, and homes are built low, hardy, and simple. Unsurprisingly, the peer network headquarters of a city is almost univerally found in its brute area.
===Communal===
The communal specs include the Royal Lines, and are heavily focused on social concern, commerce, fine dining, law, the Arts, acetica study, and what is referred to as The General Intent, that is, the common consensus of all solfolk. If a city is blessed with a Royal Line, its great Court will be found in this district.
These squares are general and not outlined perfectly. More accurately, a city tends to exist as a number of very large apartment buildings, strewn in a line north to south. An arena and peer HQ are found on one side, a lok and sometimes, a court on the other. Geographical or historical facts bend or outright break these generalities at times, such as:
 - Albion, where the building-line is flush with the ocean.
 - Angelic, where it is generally accepted that the entire city is a tactile district.
 - Token-Ard, an enormous Royal Court, with the dregs of a city around it.
 - Central, location of the Old Dome, the worlds largest and oldest lok.
