Welcome to Azure Beach Azure Beach is a small city that takes up an entire island off of the coast of Florida. The nearest large city is Saint Vincent, where people from Azure Beach often times go to get a taste of big city life. But Azure Beach itself is rather self contained having everything that a small city would need from good schools, a community college, a hospital, and even a small mall. The city is quaint and picturesque and everything you would imagine a coastal Florida town to be. Almost. Imagine if you took Days or Our Lives, General Hospital, Passions, One Life to Live, The Bold and the Beautiful, and all other manner of soap operas, and put them together, filled the cast with original characters with outrageous stories, and gathered them all up and placed them on an island off the Floridian coast. This is the entire concept behing Azure Beach. It is a soap opera of most ridiculous proportions where practically anything is possible as long as it follows "soap opera logic". So go ahead, get pregnant in January and have the baby in March. It'll be almost fully grown by December. Be involved in a car crash that causes life-threatening injuries. You'll be out and on the dance floor two days later. Build an empire of power so strong that not a single family in the city can take you down. And most importantly, ignore any and every sign that something's not right until the most dramatic moment possible. It's Azure Beach! These things happen here.

In Southern California, there recently opened a new luxury apartment building. Impeccably designed, impossibly convenient, ideally located, Pax Letale is the sort of residential Shangri La where Southern Californians spend all manner of favors and years trying to secure a spot. But Pax doesn't have a waiting list, nor can a place there be bought or sold. The people who find their way to Pax Letale belong there. Every tenant of Pax is a reincarnated deity whose worshipers are by and large long dead. Once very real, these gods began to fade as science and reason dispelled the probability of their existence. Reborn as mortals, their essences remain, waiting to be awakened. Somehow, sometimes one by one, sometimes in groups or pairs, these creatures of destiny have discovered Pax, and have not been able to resist its pull. For at Pax Letale, the awakening has begun. As these gods rediscover themselves and each other, the seemingly invisible but ubiquitous management tracks each of them quite closely, and the very building itself seems to have an agenda of its own. And as the gods made humans in their own image - or humans made them in theirs - so will the the behavior of the people of Pax turn as dark as their myths. Blood, strife, sex, petty plots, torture - even murder will wind their ways into Pax Letale. A lovely place. A peculiar place. A dangerous place. Isis was worshiped as the ideal mother and wife as well as the matron of nature and magic. Devoted and wise, Isis was loyal to a fault and well-loved in Egypt. Her mortal seeming may be connected to her brother-husband Osiris, her brother Set, and her sister Nephthys, as well as the other Egyptian deities. Apollo was the Greek god of the sun, though he wasn't actually the sun. He was also the god of prophecy, medicine and healing, music, and a variety of other domains that made him popular among gods and men alike. He was famous for his Oracle at Delphi, and like most Greek gods, loved the ladies. His human self is likely to have connections with those of his twin sister, Artemis, his father, Zeus, his brother, Ares, and other Olympian gods like Poseidon and Aphrodite. Masauwu is a Hopi deity sometimes called the Skeleton Man, Keeper of Fire, Spirit of Death, and the Master of the Fourth (present) World. He is depicted as a dark-skinned man wearing a mask; sometimes the creature beneath this mask is described as handsome, sometimes as a disfigured monster. Connections to Native American deities and gods and goddesses of death or enlightenment are likely. Don't see a tenant that interests you? Original creations are welcome - pick one of the active pantheons in the game, or talk to a mod if there's one you don't see, and make your modern god as you see him/her/it. |
