Lunara: Difference between revisions

Founded in 2003 by the organization [[Lunsoc]], the town has a population that does not exceed ten thousand people. Most of the houses have been constructed in an architectural style resembling fairy castles from Levantian children's stories. Lunara has the largest concentration of inhabitants with dwarfism in the country after [[Lunsoc]] invited dwarves as settlers. The dwarf community of roughly eight hundred members is semi autonomous and has its own sector known as Dwarf City.

Due to internal power dynamics between the groups that live in Lunara, the city has a double system of government. One section of the city is ruled by the [[Lunsoc|Lunaran Socialist Movement]]. The highest authority in this part of the city is the founder of Lunsoc who styles himself as the Dark Lord, he exerts dictatorial power and controls his zone through four specially appointed Coordinators who in turn handle a number of Executors whith responsibility for designated city blocks. The other part of the city is 'Dwarf City' and it is ruled by an elected dwarven monarch. Neither absolute ruler has any authority in their counterparts zone, other than the one they might be able to gain through force. It is believed there is a power struggle underway between the two power centers but it has not spilled into open violence yet.

Dwarf City residents mainly dedicate themselves to trading, entertainment and artisan jobs. There are many small shops and eateries in the district and the largest agency for dwarf artistic talent has its head office there, booking local dwarves for commercials, movies, carnivals and other events. Wood and bone carving are also popular and there is a bazaar specializing in the sale of carved products. Telemarketing call centers have also arrived in town, mostly pushing 'As Seen on TV' products and other scams.

===Carlin===

Carlin is a rundown, poverty and crime infested district on the western edge of Lunara. [[Lunsoc]] has mostly lost control of Carlin to a gang known as the Brazucas, led by a local murderer known as Menino Gostoso. The Brazucas control most criminal activities in the area including pushing hard drugs, murder for hire, extortion and phishing scams. Any businesses left pay protection money to the gang as do panhandlers and street performers.
