Ape Hangers

* The Secret in the Forest
* The Secret in the Forest - Part 1

The **Ape Hangers** is a bar located in the city of Carpazinha. Previously, it was frequented by two biker groups: the Scoundrel Vultures and the Haunteds. During the The Secret in the Forest's events, a team of Order agents frequented the place, even using it as a base for reorganizing evidences.

## Description

After receiving the information from the police officer Victor Rott, the Team H's members go to the bar "Ape Hangerso, which is located near the place of the murder of the victim, in RS 230 - KM 303, going in search of information about this case and the disappearance of the Team Kelvin, where they probably went to gather information.

## Place

The establishment was a little far from the Carpazinha's city, being very close to the place where the murder took place, located in a more rural region with few people and some farms around. It had a small gas station on the other side of the garage, being the home of a gentleman known as Mr. Getúlio, who preferred to stay in his corner.

The bar was much like a traditional American bar, having a saloon door made of wood. Inside, it had 4 tables with 4 chairs each and several bar stools near the counter with a mini-stage in the corner.

## History

The Ape Hangers bar was run by Ivete Beicur who was also the bartender. The bar was frequented by two biker gangs: the Scoundrel Vultures, created by Brúlio Cervero and Rodolfo, and the Haunteds, created later by Rodolfo. The history between these two groups is conflicting due to personal reasons between the two heads of the groups, causing the bar to be divided into schedules for both to observe and avoid conflicts: from 5:00 pm to 11:00 pm the Vultures stay at the bar, and from 11:00 pm until closing time, the Haunteds.

Due to the lack of delivery, Ape Hangers had several divisions, being paid by the Haunteds with the money they received from the scientists, a type of “humiliation” to the Vultures, because they were the ones who frequented the bar the most.

After the 16th episode of The Secret in the Forest's events, Ivete is forced to close the bar due to lack of clientele.

With the departure of Ivete to São Paulo, she joins forces with Ordo Realitas and together they "recreate" Ape Hangers in São Paulo. However, in addition to being a bar, it also acts as a Ordo Realitas Base for its members, having an entire underground section dedicated to the fight against Occultists. In addition to operating a HQ to assign missions to its agents, the site now stores equipment and weapons, conducts paranormal investigations, has an infirmary and a single bathroom.

## Trivia

* Monthly the place had a show, made by Arthur Cervero and his band, which filled the establishment.
* The Ape Hangers bar was the first map featured in the new scenario tool, Tabletop Simulator.
* The name "Ape Hangers" is a tribute to a term that refers to the highest handlebars used on custom motorcycles. The rider's armpits are dry from the wind when riding a motorcycle of this type because of the position of the arms.
