Lutetia is one of four countries that make up the continent of Issunar. Situated at the center of these three neighboring countries (Iveria, Aanar, and Tiranoth) and having carved a name for itself for its artful and fashionable community, Lutetia maintains a relatively steady influx of tourism. Its rich historical background only further draws interest from scholars and historians as well.
However despite this spotlight of success, for those living within Lutetia a very different picture is painted. Most of the wealth within Lutetia is concentrated into the hands of the small upper class, while the rest of the populace is left to live in squalor. Disease and illness run rampant in the poorer regions of Lutetia, and crime rates are record high.
Lutetia is ripe with supernatural elements as well. Urban werewolf packs run rampant through the streets of the cities, and vampires have staked a claim to the night. Necromancy, witchcraft, and wizardry are a thing of the norm among the populace, and an underground struggle wages between the church and the supernaturals.
Note: For those RPing within Lutetia please be mindful that Lutetia's local culture is loosely influenced by a mingling of French, and urban fantasy concepts, but due to general immigration, other cultural denominations are present as well in smaller number. Lutetia maintains a dark urban fantasy atmosphere with both modern and supernatural elements. Please be mindful that while Lutetia is inspired by French concepts, it is not France, nor do the locals speak French. The dominant language of the region is Queran, and while individuals are encouraged to maintain a French *feel* to Queran words and character names, they should avoid words pulled straight from a French dictionary, or writing dialogue in French. It's simply assumed that unless otherwise specified, dialogue within the setting is being spoken in the local language.
