Domain Notes
This should help give some handles to grab for writing this article.
The top half has generic notes regarding city domains.
The bottom half has specific notes for the Daeva Domain.
Think of the Domain as the layer beneath the mortal Midtown City Ward. I have included some names and places. Some good for feeding and some not so good. There is not need to include all of them.If a refence has an article block link it should definitely be included explain and mentioned as it will be important to the character/player.
The Daeva domain should read like a travel brochure for a new Daeva Kindred that just enters the city. This should give them snap shots of the important details. This is also the document a new player of a Daeva would read.

Mortal Ward - Midtown Ward
This is the visible layer for the mortals. What most of them know and are comfortable with. This is what your average D&D Adventuring group would see as they stock up for their dungeon delving never wiser that the greater menace may be right beside them.
If Ptolus has a heart (though most people would say that it doesn’t), it is Midtown. This is the crossroads of Ptolus, where common folks rub shoulders with the not-so-common, where everyone goes in order to get anywhere else, and where all newcomers to the city inevitably end up first. Midtown is the most cosmopolitan area of what is almost certainly the most cosmopolitan city in the world.
The largest district in the city, Midtown is bounded by the King’s River on the north. But where the river dips south (at Carver Lane), the border veers north to Golden Elm Way to run along the Necropolis wall. Farther east, Midtown continues right up to the Cliffs of Lost Wishes and the Warrens, and to the south the district ends at Iron Street. The boundary between Midtown and the South Market is rather vague—it amounts to a diagonal line drawn between the north end of Carriage Row and the ramp up to Oldtown. The western border then runs north up along Dalen’s Cliffs. Ptolus 5e (pg186)

Domain Sanctum
The domain Sanctum is a type of clan haven or small court specific to the Daeva. This is the seat of power for Blaise as their current Lord.Domain Lord
Blaise is a Daeva Family Elder of at least 400 or 500 years. He is also a Templars which is this version of the Lancea et Sanctum. He is also one of the 5 members of the Council of Elders that rules the city until or if a prince is appointed.Cacophony Whisper
While Cacophony signs can be anywhere in the city. The Whispers are special. They are designated location for each clan and covenant to relay Cacophony information. They are typically businesses with easy access 24 hour a night, and most likely have a large volume of people coming and going. Most popular are brothels, taverns, inns and such.North & Important

Highlights
Blaise is masquerading as an Avatar of a long forgotten minor god Tamaris , using this the enrapture a small following. This give the Daeva another layer or another safe haven as well as an easy herd and possible future progeny. He is carefully working through a mortal husband and wife acquiring the building to be their temple. He has only allowed them to see his divine "Majesty".From the Ptolus Book
Communities
With Midtown being the largest ward it makes little difference if these non-human communities do not offer good feeding, as there are so many choices.
