Mount Olympus The largest and most prominent mansions in Providence, the houses of Mount Olympus are the homes of the highest nobles; descendants of the founding Providence families. Surrounded by high gates and stuccoed walls, the mansions come in a variety of shapes and sizes; complete with pools, all manner of amenities and a patrolling security force. The cobbled streets and fragrant gardens speak of the highest luxury, and the best restaurants and shops can be found close by. The lower classes are not permitted to enter here, and trespassers are strictly prosecuted. |

Griffith Park Centered in the noble's quarter, Griffith Park is one of the greenest places you can find outside of the Armagosa Desert. The park is open to all, but only the best parts are open to the nobles, and the fields are patrolled daily by members of the law. Fountains and small ponds break up the rolling fields of grass, and gazebos decorated with tumbling pots of jasmine and lilac offer shade to relaxing patrons. For the nobles, an on-site bistro will deliver refreshments and food and occasional bands will be allowed to play at the largest fountain. On the hill above the park sits the Griffith Observatory, now fulfilling it's function in the service of Providence. The laboratory is the budding beginning of the city's interest in space and other experiments, and they say that the laboratory has grown in size well below the surface. |

Great Augustine Theatre Formerly Grauman's Chinese Theatre and renamed for one of Providence's older founding families; the theatre is a grand work of architecture that had managed to survive the war mostly intact. Flanked by deep red curtains and velvet red sears, the theatre speaks to the affluence of the hills. Plays and shows are put on regularly for the nobles, retellings of old stories and new ones alike, and small circus acts entertain crowds who don't want to travel as far as Vegas for a good show. Old movies that have been remastered and edited are put on here, the unveiling of new technology, and occasionally even the lower classes are let in at a lower price. |

piranha Owned by one of the founding families, the Depaul's, the Piranha is Providence's swankiest night club any noble could ever attend. Young nobles would flock here from all corners of the city, seeking a good time filled with drink and debauchery. Those of the poorer class constantly dream of affording the price of entry, however there are a dedicated few who save up for months at time in exchange for one whole night at the Piranha. Doubling up as an upscale restaurant during the day, the first two floors act as the restaurants central hub, with a built in terrace so one can enjoy food during bright and sunny weather. Specializing in seafood and sushi, many visit to taste the delicious oceanic delicacies prepared by the head chef. An hour or two after the restaurant closes, the third floor opens as the night club. Inside the club itself, there are numerous aquariums surrounding the dance floor, giving guests the feeling that their 'dancing' underwater. Although the Piranha carries reputation of fun and excitement. many nobles tend to participate in shady activities in the club's dark corners. |
