Locations Saint Germaine

From NexusWiki

This page lists the terrain and building types that are located in the mortal plane that contains the Saint Germaine Archipelago, on the plane of Valhalla.

On Valhalla, all buildings have doors that can be locked, padlocked, broken, and repaired and have electrical connections that can be cut or restored (using the Engineering skill. The power connections of several neighborhoods can be disabled by sabotaging the relevant Power Plant.

[edit] Airport

• Outdoors: The air here is dominated by the pungent odor of jet fuel. Several large airplanes are parked along the tarmac, bloated birds rotting on the concrete.
  
• Indoors: The air here smells faintly of ozone and stale cigarette smoke. Several shops are spaced throughout the terminal halls. Any sound echoes ominously.

On the game map, airports are denoted with this icon:

There are three airports in the islands, though the most easily accessible one is Hammerstrom Airport, located in Ridleytown. The terminal is three squares high, with a two square runway to the west. The second airport is located at Fort Tague and the third airport is located at St. Germaine Private Airport south of St. Germaine Mansion. The airport has been shut down due to anarchy.

[edit] Apartment Building

• Outdoors: This building is several stories tall and made of brick. Air conditioning units are visible in many windows. The fire escape is rusted and looks untrustworthy.
  
• Indoors: The stairwell here is relatively clean, and the apartments are a bit on the small side but homey.

On the game map, apartment buildings are denoted with this icon:

Apartment Buildings are plentiful throughout the Saint Germaine Archipelago. They are one of four residential building types found in Valhalla.

Despite the lack of rent, and the lack of janitors, these buildings have been kept in good shape by the inhabitants of the Nexus.

[edit] Auto Showroom

• Outdoors: Rows upon rows of dead automobiles are parked in ordered rows and the air smells of gasoline. The main showroom is made primarily of glass.

All other neighborhoods have not a single bar or nightclub.

[edit] Bridge

• It is made of rusting steel and crumbling concrete - the salt air has not been kind to it. The wind is rushing loudly over its surface and you can hear its cables strain faintly.

On the map, Observatories are denoted with the following icon:

There are two known observatories, the Bernard's Cape Observatory and the Lighthouse, both in Wright's Corridor. They are attractive buildings of no known use (unless some day we gain the Craft Astronomical Telescope skill), but well worth visiting to inspect the rain water puddles and look for random hiding people, no doubt.
