Downbelow

Adapted from a portion of the city’s old aqueducts, it is home to many underground-dwelling anthros and serves as the unofficial “Undercity”.

Club Ocarina
A popular EDM club where it is said the rave never ends. Gained fame when during a fire emergency the DJ seamlessly evacuated the crowd out of the place and continued the party even as the firefighters were extinguishing the fire around them. Has a dress code consisting of a proprietary holo-visor.

The Kettle
Built from the ruins of a former gang hideout, this establishment is a high-class meeting spot for the city's bohemians and artists. The owner, Caleb Malloy, is frequently tending the bar and mixing drinks for the guests.

The Traprunner Maze
An attraction for both tourists and locals. The Traprunner Maze expands on the idea of the escape room by providing an entire maze for the guests while navigating traps which test their intelligence, reflex, strength and stamina. There are several levels of the maze, differing in size, complexity and rulesets. The establishment regularly hosts tournaments and caters to groups. Those in the know can join special, kinky traprunner sessions where traps are replaced with naughty variants and the runners themselves wear brightly coloured latex suits that get progressively handicapped with bondage accessories. Some of the kinky tournaments are televised in Academy City’s late night broadcasting.

Hexblue Plaza
A spacious area owned by the mysterious Hexblue Corp., it has been arranged to resemble an outdoor area in every way, including a holographic ceiling. Like most trendy squares and alleys, the Plaza is a gathering spot for people who are fans of a very particular style - some say lifestyle - that of a sentient latex toy.

Regular people and toysuit wearers of every species real and imagined mingle and play with each other at all hours. Toysuit shops dot the area, as do parlours, cafés and other dedicated services. It is the perfect location to discard one's mundane identity and just be a good toy.
