Marion County Circuit Courts

Description

This beige marble structure vaguely evokes a sense of Classical architecture, married to early 20th-century aesthetics. One of the two lamps standing watch over the stairway leading into the court is burnt out, and only half of the other streetlights are in working order. Within, the beige gives way to ivory white marble, accented by Art Deco sensibilities. A clerk of the court wanders by, rather unsubtly straightening her skirt as she quietly speaks into a digital recorder.

Rumors

Occasionally, those useful to the city’s Kindred regime pass through the court, usually in the role of defendant.

Traits

Physical: Access +2, Safety +3. Public transportation makes frequent stops around the plaza on which the court, the center of the city’s law, is located.
Mental: Information +4, Awareness +4. There is very little that can’t been researched, seen or otherwise known here. Newspapers are plentiful. Conversations and crowded hallways make eavesdropping surprisingly easy. But people are always on the lookout here, whether security guards watching for trouble, overwhelmed visitors trying to find traffic court or career-minded young lawyers looking for their big break.
Social: Prestige +2, Stability +4. The area around the city courts is affluent and benefits from a placid, lawabiding (at least on the premises) populace. Housing consists mostly of private high-rise condos with doormen and buzzers.

Haven Qualities

Location 1, Security 3, Size 2. Hunting is difficult here at night (everything closes down around 6 P.M.), housing is generally of modest size, considering its exorbitant price, and the area is remarkably secure.
