holes, and other means of slipping through them since time began.  Such 'gateways' have always been able to lead one with the right know how, (or just plain dumb luck,), to many lands, times, and even far away planets.  Regardless, there is also a 'buffer' zone between the planes of existence, where EVERYONE who has EVER plane walked has wound up.  The 'buffer' or the place between worlds, is mostly an empty land covered in a dense fog where life can survive beyond the circle of gateways, each one made of something different that leads to many different lands and times, but what lies beyond the twenty miles of gates is anyone's guess.  Everyone who has wandered into the fog had never returned.  However, in the center of this ring of gateways that go by as many different names as the places they lead to, there is a small village in the center of the ring that has just always been there.  More like a city of ten miles of nothing but roads, houses, and buildings from all walks of life and eras, with countless more beneath the ground itself where it is not uncommon to find artificial suns, moons, and even stars depending on where you end up.  Every plane exists equally here, even the Hellish ones, and all of the races, both aliens and mystic alike, all fear one that keeps this place as peaceful as it has been since it's beginning.  No one knows much about them save for the fact that no sensor can get a bead on them, making them impossible to identify, and no amount of damage ever stops them.  Whatever the silent guardians are, anything that threatens the stability of the Nexus is dealt with swiftly and without mercy, and they always seem to know where to look for such threats.<br/><br/>Regardless, there is one place in the exact dead center of this place that resides in the heart of the underground city, on all floors yet they are all connected to the main hub, is a Brothel that serves everyone and everything in any capacity.  Slavery is not uncommon, but it is not respected by some races, while it is encouraged by others.  Magic and technology intermix freely here, and all levels of both works here except for the world destroying variety.  (Nukes and stuff like that, but I don't see that being a problem lol.)  Whatever your pleasure, the Nexus Brothel can provide for a nominal fee.  Teleporters lead to different 'levels' of the establishment that spans the entire city's dead center mark from top to bottom, making travel between 'floors' as simply as stepping into any such device and thinking of where you wish to go.  However, break any of the rules of the Brothel, and be prepared to face judgment by any of the god like beings that rule over the Nexus itself, and their silent guards.  (Mainly no death unless agreed upon by the players, but more to be added on that later.)  So come one, come all, and welcome to the Nexus Brothel, where anything is possible, and nothing is forbidden.  <strong>Read fine print first.</strong><br/><br/>The Nexus Brothel isn't responsible for lost valuables, limbs, or other body parts.  Any complaints must be made to the Headmaster and Head Mistress or their support staff.  Upon entering the door, you give up the right to sue us for any damage done to your person, (not that it would do you any good anyway,) and that should you sign anything, it is your mess to deal with.  What your rules might be might be different from another race's, so keep that in mind as well while you stay here.  The only rules are OUR rules, and to disobey them is to either be evicted immediately, sold off into slavery to the Nexus Brothel until your debts are paid off, or killed outright should the offense be bad enough.  Language barriers are your own concern to deal with.  Enjoy your stay!</em><br/><br/><div

only a ten mile space that are constantly coming and going to other worlds and planes of existence besides their own.  The miles of Gates that encircle the city are in constant use, although some more than others considering more than a few lead to places that no mortal in their right mind would dare to tread, while others only certain people can access so that the rules of that particular world aren't corrupted beyond repair.  On the other hand, there are many that allow gate travel to anyone, but knowing where a gate might take you is not always enough, as more than a few people have found out to their own detriment.  The city that extends to countless miles below the surface to allow for so many different species and races from countless worlds however, is its own maze of puzzles and riddles as well as countless dangers since there is no true law here save for the stability of this Nexus.  Silent stone guardians that have just simply existed, shaped in the form of gods and goddesses, animals, people of great skill, and so many more, stand guard at every gate and they stand at every street corner.  They do not attack unless they themselves are provoked, nor do they do anything except stand about as silent sentries, yet should a threat appear, no matter their cunning, they always find and eliminate the being or beings that try to destroy the buffer or any of its citizens.  How they receive their orders or how they always seem to know where to strike is unknown, but what is known is that they can't be destroyed.  Slowed down perhaps, but no amount of magic or technologically powered attacks has ever stopped them completely.<br/><br/>The City of In-Betweens as the locals call it, considering the city and its inhabitants live relatively peaceful lives in this otherwise strange land stuck in time with no known location among the heavens since the stars always seem to be in ordered chaos, is just as diverse in its architecture as the people themselves.  Look here, and you'll see a Victorian styled home straight out of eighteenth century France.  Look there and you'll see a Roman styled estate, complete with stone columns, statues of the household gods and goddesses, and balconies that overlook the streets or their personal gardens or even slave pens should it be a school for gladiators.  Then of course there is buildings that look like they came right out of a sci fi motion picture that tower over their neighbors, while on the opposite side of the street you might find an elven garden style affair.  Everything is possible and nothing is forbidden here.  However, in all this madness lies the Brothel that attracts EVERYONE from far and wide the moment they enter this realm that is not a realm, where two very different people rule over every floor of the Dimensional Nexus Brothel that is located in the exact center of this land on every floor.<br/><br/>((This thread is to be used to get around and stuff for the most part.  More will be created as the need arises, but soon the Brothel itself will be made once I get some things squared away with Firefights.))
