City Seuda

City Seuda, usually referred to as simply Seuda (but not to be confused with SEUDA), is the isolated city-state in which the action of *Omnicron* primarily takes place. It is a technologically-advanced megacity characterized by the extreme gap between the wealthy and impoverished.

### Geography

City Seuda is a largely industrial city-state surrounded by nigh-impenetrable walls on three sides and a vast body of water on the fourth. The city is elevated towards the north, causing the Stability and Prosperity districts to be higher in not only power and wealth, but also physical height.

A river-canal runs through the center of the City, flowing directly into the vast ocean that borders it.

### Districts

#### Prosperity, "The Greed"

Within the center of Seuda is the Prosperity district, which is generally where all the corporate centers reside. The tallest skyscrapers and buildings are visible within this region, as well as extremely lavish housing communities.

Prosperity is the region containing the largest concentration of wealth. It also houses many sub-districts which provide entertainment of a generally higher social standing than in any other district. Casinos, aristocratic clubs, and showy displays of wealth like parades and fairs are common.

#### Stability, "The Absent"

Stability is the governing district of Seuda. Geographically, it takes up the smallest portion of the city and only contains government-related facilities and housing. It is surrounded on both sides by the River Grace as well as the entirety of the Prosperity district. Its proximity to Prosperity also aids in the co-mingling between governance and corporation.

#### Ingenuity, "The Sin"

Towards the northeastern sector of Seuda lies Ingenuity, which is comprised almost entirely of a large-scale research institution where thousands of Seuda's most brilliant minds collaborate on the furtherment of science and technology. Ingenuity is a relatively isolated community compared to the other regions; people who live there rarely venture outside of the facility and its auxiliary structures as there is little reason to do so. Similarly, the general populace rarely has reason to visit the district.

#### Industry, "The Bowels"

Most of the production within Seuda occurs within the expansive Industry district. Industry also happens to retain a lot of lower-income housing. Organized crime is extraordinarily prevalent throughout the district. Gang activity is typically of little threat to the Prosperity and Stability regions of Seuda, so little is done about it. The notorious gang Atlantean controls most of the operations of Industry.

#### Commerce, "The Flog"

The majority of businesses, markets, and trade happens within the Commerce district. The primary port of Seuda is located to the south; it is used infrequently (see [article about the reason for isolation]) so much of the populace has taken residence within the many shipping containers stationed at the port.

#### Haven, "The Belt"

The vast majority of people living in the City live within Haven. Haven can be characterized by its numerous megaplexes designed entirely for residential use. It is well-protected by law enforcement, surveillance, and private militias due to much of the Prosperity district living there.

#### Nihilum, "Out"

The region outside of Seuda's thick walls is mostly unknown and uncharted. There is little record of what lies "Out."

Seuda's Western Gate, located in Haven, has been non-functional for decades. The Northern Gate is only accessible through the Stability district and is not accessible by the public. Industry's Eastern Gate functions, but is heavily guarded for reasons unknown to the populace and common citizens are rarely allowed outside, and virtually no one returns to Seuda once they leave. The reasons for this are speculated on by the populace, but there are no official accounts as to why.
