For a lucky few there is a special year-round school for troubled teens located in the Cascade Mountains approximately two and half hours northeast of Seattle and miles from nowhere in rural Washington State. Mount Triumph High School is one part private boarding school, one part rehabilitation centre in a mountain cabin setting. The students there come from all walks of life from the high school football star to the girl from the trailer park and the aim of the school is to give the kids a second chance, a way to get their life on track, and as such it relies heavily on donations to keep the doors open to everyone who truly needs them. The staff at Triumph help the students deal with their problems no matter what they are or how bad. Drug and alcohol abuses, eating disorders, emotional problems, as well as their varied and dark root causes... nothing is to serious or scary to the counsellors or teachers. The school is to be a safe haven, a sanctuary away from the societal, social, and familial pressures that contributed to their problems, and a safe place to heal. Taking advantage of the wilderness that surrounds the school, things like mountain climbing, canoeing, hiking and camping are part of the therapies employed by the Triumph staff in addition to the more standard things like group therapy and independent counselling. full premise | |

Welcome to Pacis Urbs, a city that takes the best of all worlds for itself.
And, yes, that includes you.
You've been taken quite by accident (so they say), but you're hardly the first Otherworlder to arrive in this city. Pacis Urbs has a long history of accommodating Others like yourself and getting them back home. The only problem is, getting you back is expensive. How can you earn the money to get home?
Menial labor is one choice: cooking, cleaning, laundry. Working at the Domus Hospes, a club that caters to Native with exotic tastes, is another. However, the most lucrative way to earn money is the Games.
These gladiator-esque games are wildly popular in Pacis Urbs and other cities, generating much of the city's income. While these games can be light, even humorous, the darker games pay more. Getting home isn't cheap, and there are plenty of ways to sell yourself on the Campus.
Isolated from the rest of the city, collared and marked as an outsider, you're stuck in this world until you can pay off your debt.
But, even if the crowd loves you, nothing is as straightforward as the Scientists make it out to be. Despite espousing isolation, the Native politics trickle in from time to time (be it those who want the Otherworlders dead or the Otherworlders freed), and not all Otherworlders are going with the system. There are those who'll do anything to keep the Games from running, and those who'll do everything to get ahead. You could be a casualty of both.
If all else fails, you could find the Machine and try to make it send you home. If you could find it. (And if it would listen to you.)
