ABOUT DURA

DURA is two things; an island, and a city. Starting out as a pet project, Kohane Sakurai-sama designed a floating city off the coast of southern Japan, one were people could live in peace, and were they could use their newly-found powers for the benifit of each other, using them for work or play. Sakurai-sama's work eventually became a reality, and the idea of DURA became fruition. Though, if Sakurai-sama was here today, he would be appalled by what the city has grown up to be.

The Walls

The Walls. Checkpoints and movement between district all go through one of these. Ka fortified, and as tall as the neon district, nothing can get past them unchecked. Have your ID at the ready, and be prepared to hear gunfire a couple gates down.

District 1

"The Rat" Slums District

The rat. The dirty buildings and disturbing streets seem full of filth. It feels overbearingly hostile- every glance your way feels as though nails were being scratched through your scalp. The streets twist into a maze of endless grime, stairs going up, stairs going down- where do they go? What horrors await the next turn?

District 2

"The Ox" Haphazard Overwired Mix-match

Full of metalwork overhanging façades, pipes tunneling through cracked pavement, and concrete applied to walls and streets no matter were you turn. Buildings that overhang crowded pavements line each street, feeling more full then reality, their outlines block out the stars, pips filling in for the clouds, and wires illuminating the streets from above.

District 3

"The Tiger" Technologically Delayed

The first part of DURA to be made, and the slowest district to keep up with each era of new tech. Though to us living in the 21st century, it may feel like home, to the generations of 23XX, this district feels too old, as ifshunned by the others... akin to the ugly duckling. Maybe oneday it'll shed its feathers and become a spectical to the city...

District 4

"The Rabbit" Affordable Compressed Housing

The Rabbit eart its nickname after the reports showed the highest birthrate of any District. This could be due to the amount of housing within this district, with the highest residential percente out of all of them, or it could be something more sinsiter and vile... Though for its high population, the rabbit could be considered one of the nicest "inner city" areas to live, due to its high concentration of nature interwined in its tall, custered buildings.

District 5

"The Dragon" Neon Entertainment Central

Nicknamed the "Neon District", District 5 is home to the largest amount of commercialised building in all of DURA, boasting to be the "Entertainment District of the world", and that isnt an overstatement. It's streets are lit with blinding neon colours 24/7, the shops constantly rotating opening times to suit the needs of the residents.

District 6

"The Snake" Buisness Empire

If you're hoping to start a buisness, District 6 is the place to go. Known for its large empire of megacoperations, The Snake is full of bright in-your-face advertisement, vendors, markets and shady buisness operations. Don't be suprised if you hear a constant hum of police sirens, as there's always something going on behind the scenes.

District 7

"The Horse" Eastern Woodland

forests, nature, shrines, temples, small rural villages with little change aside technological advancement such as phones, neon lighting and metal.

District 8

"The Goat" Compact Eastern Suburbs

The change between suburbs to city, has more lights with the lead up in height toward the city, though still has winding sideroads and less main roads, japanese style still, though shadowed by the city, as well as cables, powerlines and a small mix of nature.

District 9

"The Monkey" World's Tallest

the tallest buildings in Dura, split above the clouds. Lots of divide yet large community spirit between those divided. Lots of clouds, fog, buildings, people crammed into one space.

District 10

"The Rooster" Industrialised Red Grunge

polluted from the dangerous chemicals, lots of mutated Ka Energy making living and working difficult, stains the fog and sky red , giving the run a deep red look from within the smog.

District 11

"The Dog" Abandoned Liminal Space

barren, right near the rooster district, collects the smog blown over. Most of it was flat, with roads and foundations but it was never built on. Nature struggles to live there, but so do humans. outer dura

District 12

"The Boar" Overgrown Disrepaired City

Old Tokyo. Lots of flooding, torn down scyscrapes, nature overtaken, strange flora, camps of people and (real) fauna.
