Pax Letale

Apartments For Rent

VACANT. A sex worker with empty pockets and allegiances to no one, Theseus has never been above taking advantage of anyone he crosses paths with to make ends meet. When he met Ariadne in a bar after ten years apart, he dragged her with him to Southern California before ‘borrowing’ several thousand dollars and then disappearing. After paying off a few debts, he’s back in Anaheim, working his trade and getting close enough to broke that he’d be willing to do it all over again. If Ariadne chooses to get in his way, that will be her mistake, not his.

VACANT. A friend of Hi’iaka and one of those mysterious folks in the character suits, Laka doesn’t have half Hi’iaka’s talent and s/he knows it. However, his/her caring personality and friendly manner has earned him/her far more friends than the dancer, and s/he is very uncomfortable with the lie that Hi’iaka and Lono have involved him/her in...

VACANT. ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE TENANTS.

Premise:
There is an apartment building in California called 'Pax Letale.' Most people ignore its auspicious name, though they would be advised to pay more attention to its meaning.

It is a strange building.

Every man, woman and child in the building is a reincarnated myth, the stories told to humans for hundreds, sometimes thousands of years. Once very real, the myths began to fade as science and reason dispelled the probability of their existence. They have all been reborn in human forms, though their essence remains, waiting to be awakened at the right time, in the right place.

Now is the time - Pax Letale is the place. As their lives connect and weave together, as they follow their petty desires and long-held grudges, they are, all of them, on the brink of disaster. Their Landlord knows their every move, and the building they live in seems to have an agenda of its own. People are tortured, people die, people plot behind each other's backs and sneak around and cheat. They love, they fight, they draw blood.
