Cyprian, better known as Ian, is the lead guitarist for the 60s psychedelic rock band The Carbuncles. Aside from being dedicated to his music, his passions also lie in classical history, the occult, traveling, and general hedonism. When not experimenting with music, he can be found locked away in his gothic victorian mansion, reading.

Jamie is the bassist for The Carbuncles. He grew up in the city of Blackport, as the youngest heir to a prominent crime family. While he's a musician by profession, he also takes interest in painting, poetry, historical costuming and reading gothic romances. He lives above Ian's bookshop in the city, and oversees its upkeep.

Located on the far west of New Austin near Gaptooth Ridge, Tumbleweed is a town on the decline, a ghost town that the railway doesn't reach and a hostile presence from both local bandits as well as the residing sheriff's hard sense of justice. With most of New Austin afflicted with past sickness epidemics, there are very few people interested in moving out into the deserts, and those living there have either been there for generations or are running with a rough crowd that's decided to settle out where it's harder to find them, among hostile terrain where the howling of animals carries... an unnatural eerieness.

Armadillo is seated in the Cholla Springs region of New Austin, and was lucky enough to get the railway that was not extended to Tumbleweed. This has been enough to keep Armadillo at the very least active, but it is still harrassed by local gangs and is currently dealing with a mass outbreak of scarlet fever that has caused many to flee and contributed a mass of casualties. The saloon, however, is still open to visitors, though it will only serve drinks, and the train still regularly runs through to keep businesses going.

Strawberry serves as the self appointed capital of the Big Valley region of West Elizabeth, and was founded as a logging town southeast of Mount Shann. The current mayor touts a delusion to turn the town into a.. resort town, though many of the residents don't share the same sentiment. There is no saloon in Strawberry, but there is certainly a steady flow of illegal moonshine to be accessed... if you ask the right people. And while there is no saloon, the parlour house is a pleasant attraction with no shortage of wayward girls taking up residence there. In fact, they tend to gravitate towards Strawberry and the parlour house for work, and these girls aren't always as they seem...

An industrialized settlement that is second in size to Saint Denis, Blackwater is a thriving port city along Flat Iron Lake in the state of West Elizabeth. Characterized by the cobbled streets, gas streetlamps, and telephone poles, Blackwater is another beacon of progress for mankind, and has become more diverse and spread out more into the surrounding plains. Those who take up living there are on the wealthy end and carry a higher societal status, and many living among the plains and in the nearby Heartlands head into Blackwater every day to conduct business and sell their goods.

Ambarino is the northernmost state and remains mostly uninhabited due to its harsh elements and unforgiving mountainous terrain. Most of it is covered by deep snow, and is divided roughly into two main regions, Grizzlies East and Grizzlies West. Any attempt at settlements were met with failure and usually resulted in being abandoned, a primary example being the remains of the Colter settlement which stand in ruin to this day. Wolves and bears pose a very real threat, and if there is anyone who decides to make their homestead in these areas, it's clear they are more hardy than the average settler, or they may be more in tune with the pull of whatever ancient magic is carved into the stone cliff faces.

A livestock town primarily, Valentine is planted within the Heartlands region of New Hanover and serves as a lively hub for farmers to come to auction off their goods and make their living. There is even a small theater for residents and those visiting to enjoy some simple entertainment, and the saloon is always a lively place to grab yourself a drink and some... "friendly" company. The crowd is usually honest, hard working and a bit brusque, and while it certainly isn't the cleanest, the time spent there will usually be enjoyable.

Annesburg is a mining town that was established by German settlers in the Roanoake Ridge region of New Hanover, and is sidled right up next to Grizzlies East of Ambarino. It has been established and providing coal for nearly a full century by now, efficiently built around the mine that provides the work for those who choose to live there. There is a heavy layer of fog blanketing the town due to the coal, and the town itself is littered with trash and the water carries an oily sheen to it. The train frequents through the Annesburg station, carrying out coal and keeping those working there well paid as they carve out the earth and decimate the surrounding landscape.

Located just below Annesburg in New Hanover, along the shores of the Lannahechee River, Van Horn is a decrepit, derelict ramshackle where even the law seems to have abandoned, leaving justice in the hands of highly volatile drunkards. Most of the buildings seem abandoned and left to rot, but if you are there then you are usually there for a reason... due to the lack of a law presence, it has become a sort of hub for criminal activity in terms of trading, buying, and selling stolen or illegal goods. It also isn't uncommon to see rotting animals alongside the road with piles of trash, and the air carried a wretched smell which deters many from visiting for long.

Rhodes is located in the Scarlett Meadows region of Lemoyne, and appears on the surface a prim and proper Southern traditional town. But the longer you stay, it is clear that many residents wish for the glory of the town before the Civil War, and racial tensions, corruption, and old money family feuds run deep. Those who are more radical about these beliefs tned to join the notorious gang, the Lemoyne Raiders, who still don grey outfits similar to those worn by Confederates, and openly antagonize and attack anyone passing through their territory. The town is controlled by two primary feuding families, the Greys and the Braithwaites, and there are often blow ups and gunfights that break out due to the hostile tension perpetuated by a generations old feud.

Located in the Bayou Nwa region of Lemoyne, Saint Denis serves as the state capital of Lemoyne and is often referred to as the "Jewel of Lemoyne". A 200 year old melting pot of progress and diversity, Saint Denis is the largest city among any of the surrounding states, and is blessed with good rail, road, and river connections for sugar, cotton, and other trading commodities. A new electric power plant has ensured that business is booming, and within the city limits industry magnates, socialites, traders, sailors, workers, beggars, and thieves all live side by side. It is heavily industrialized with paved streets and active tram lines, and the darkness of smog is deterred by many electric street lamps illuminating the lively city. Of course, with the city being as large as it is, there is a deep undercurrent of corruption that bleeds through business and politics, and it is clear the city is run by the wealthy first and by the law second.
