STORM CITY
wolf at the door
succession studios
Storm City is a SLASHER / HORROR themed universe set primarily in 2010; Criminals and serial killers run rampant above the law, owning the city for themselves as corrupt cops and paid-off government authorities stand by and let it happen for a fat paycheck. Innocents are always at risk, and anyone outside of the law has close to free reign. A universe where technology is in a crucial learning phase - flip phones and chunky laptops are common and most people still use corded house phones.
This universe will have some strong gore, blood, violence, trauma and mentions of mental illness, so please check the "WARNINGS" tab for more information on what to expect here!

THE STORY
Once a bustling city famous for it's dreary weather and logging export, Storm City, Cium (pronounced Kai-um) was shaken to it's core when a sadistic killer took the lives of 37 students in the 1993 Horizon Valley Creek Camp murders. This was a turning point for the quiet city, panic and unease sending the masses into hysteria - their children taken from them with no suspect or leads, the police were publicly degraded by the residents that demanded closure. Riots broke out, and despite warnings, many parents, families and friends set out to find leads themselves, believing the police to be incompetent.
This paved the way for the Fool's Cross riots only two years later - a violent uprising against the construction of a luxury gated district reserved for the wealthiest citizens of Storm City , an effort that would deforest much of Timber Lake's natural forestation in the process. This riot took the lives of 33 people, most of which were law-enforcement, investigators and riot police that were unable to fight back against the brute force of the uprising, the ones that survived were forced out of Fools Cross, completely destroying the already shaky reputation of the law enforcement in Storm City .
Those years were crucial to Storm City 's descent into the bloody city it is today.
Fool's Cross has been abandoned by the government, and all policing efforts have been withdrawn from the framework district entirely - dominated by the Criminal Kings, Fool's Cross has become an ungovernable district that is exempt of law. Killers walk freely, bloodying the streets in broad daylight without retaliation while innocents are left to their mercy. Though policing efforts were focused elsewhere, the entire city slowly fell to corruption from the inside - government officials, cops and high-ranking socialists eventually falling in with the Criminal Kings and trading valuable information, security bypasses and silence for fatter pockets. Today, the entirety of the city is under the Criminal King's hands, whether it knows it or not.
