Tourist Town

Example of the Pier Carnival

A Flashy District of Wide-Eyed Tourists and Dangerous Pleasures. If you’re looking for a crowd, Tourist Town can provide, day or night. When the sun is up, families spend money in the many attractions the district has to offer. After dark is when the adults come out to play: dancing, drinking, flirting, and getting high in the district’s establishments of debauchery.

In Tourist Town, everything – legal or otherwise – is tacky, flashy, and overpriced. Some of the stores are shipping in more than what’s advertised in their catalogs. There is a market for high-grade, expensive drugs, fake IDs, and even weapons that come through this district.

Tourist Town is a chance for Rifts to access the endless resources of the world beyond the City, even if they don’t really care about that world...

## Mount Olympus Water & Theme Park

Take a journey of a lifetime to Mt. Olympus Water & Theme Park Resort where everyone can feel like a Greek God or Goddess. The story of our resort began when Jimmy Marsh envisioned his greatest dream ever – an affordable family-friendly resort that would one day become the world’s largest water and theme park resort.

## The Blue Lagoon:

The casino contains over 1,100 video poker and slot machines in addition to 36 table games. While it remains popular for being known as the Riverboat Casino, it’s also known for its community outreach programs. So, you can take added comfort knowing that your fun is contributing to local support programs and not-for-profit organizations. During the winter it remains docked at port but spring and summer it’s active and moving around in a circle and stopping at different docks.

## The Shopping Lane

The shopping lane is where professionals go to buy gear.  It’s a decrepit row of low commercial buildings that lights up like a neon christmas tree at night, arrows pointing at divey bars and stripper clubs. Those who can resist the temptations can instead call into one of the many workshops and stores around. These usually have a drab and undistinguished façade, offering second-class equipment and weaponry as the first line of defense against assassin wannabes. The second line of the defense is much less subtle, often involving a Rift of some kind. If your street cred checks out, you’ll be invited to the back room, where you’ll be offered customized, top-grade, and sometimes extremely illegal gear. Each piece is a work of art, but it’s also expensive so you better be able to front the money.

Further back or below is the workshop of the truly gifted artisan who makes the gear: a gunsmith, a technician, a mechanic. Hanging on the wall or stashed in a crate in the master craftsman’s workshop is the best piece he or she ever made: one of a kind, not for sale, and most definitely a Relic.

## Honey Hive Nightclub

Nightclubs are the epicenter of the Tourist Town’s nightlife. Some of the bigger clubs are shining multistoried extravaganzas, with enormous dance floors and the best the City has to offer. Honey Hive draws in a luxury crowd by coating everything in a rich black and gold theme. Everything appeals to a certain clientele, and the Queen Bee herself sees that most of the evening proceeds go towards Save The Bee projects and her employees.
