South Ward

Academy City’s residential section. Sometimes referred to by the locals as simply "South", the Southern Ward is a place where much of the city’s middle class dwells. Lytek’s Hero Tower is located here.

King Nacho
The best nacho place in town! Family-owned, they make the nachos as well as the salsas in-house. Be sure to check their food challenges, such as the Volcano challenge, the Marathon challenge, or the Redeemer challenge.

Kobold Kafé
A maid café owned by a clan of dragonless kobolds descended from the mountains. The little reptiles dress up in latex French maid costumes and serve their clients with devotion, adoringly calling them "Master". Since its founding, it opened additional locations in the North Ward and Downbelow. The Café offers part-time and full-time work - one of the perks of which is a LyTech kobold suit to be worn during working hours and all the time for the duration of the contract, respectively. It is said that particularly good kobolds get adopted by the clan and wear the suit for the rest of their lives.

Tymanther Dragon Host Club
A club founded by several dragons to whom the Drones were too dull, it is a place where the masses of the South Ward can taste luxury, wining and dining on fine tea and gourmet food, all in a relaxing atmosphere of upper class decadence. The club is manned by nine handsome anthro dragons who treat their customers like royalty, entertaining them with games, conversations, and flirtations, both with the guests and each other, making everyone feel welcome. The club frequently organises themed weeks, complete with elaborate redecorations and fancy costumes. It's an open secret that customers whom the dragons fancy and who flirt back may receive special services.

The Slice of Life Diner
This small diner, tucked away in an alleyway, is run by an anthro couple who strive to make all patrons feel like family.

Port Royal Beach and Resort
A slice of waterfront available to the South Ward that has been turned into a resort straight from the heart of the Caribbean. Thanks to several psychics with powers of purification, terrakinesis, hydrokinesis and climate control, the originally rather dull beach is now a tropical cove even in the dead of winter. Buy a day pass online, fetch your best swimming trunks and grab a rum drink from the café for a day of excitement and adventure. For those who are starved for more, premium passes allow for equipment loaning as for participation in the BBQ pit and jam session in the evening.

The Red Tempest
Anchored to a pier in the Port Royal cove is a life-sized pirate caravel, manned by a troupe of cosplayers and sailing enthusiasts. While not an official school of martial arts, the Tempest's crew enjoys getting into the brawling action. Outside of the rivalry, the pirates provide entertainment on their ship and around the resort, with walking the plank being especially popular among kids. Every couple of days, the Tempest takes sail for a cruise along the coast, allowing guests to taste the piratical life, culminating with a mock naval battle against the Viking drakkar.
