Twilight City

Twilight City is one of the major city domes of the current era. The dome is not an impenetrable bubble but more of a filter, keeping dangerous toxin-laden dust and low level UV radiation out of the city. It has twelve gates which all have the names of jewels and shine - it's said - like pearls at dawn and dusk when the light hits them.

The name Twilight City is said to come from the large star-tipped tower at the centre of the domed city, which was one of the first buildings created. However, the quality of the light through the UV filters creates a hazy, purplish dim hue to the whole settlement, which looks reminiscent of twilight.

Size:

The itself city has an area of 19.63 km. The Twilight City Dome is 5 km across at it's widest, with a 15.71 km perimeter that takes 4-5 hours to walk around.

Local government

Outside the city, ranger patrols keep bandit activity down, although smugglers boast in dark bars that they will fold, for the right price. Within the city, police security is high, and citizens are expected to carry ID on them, as well as at least 50 credits, at all times, to avoid vagrancy protocols.
