Points of Interest[]
- Las Vegas: Las Vegas is an American located in the U.S. state of Nevada. It is a popular resort city known for its casino district and active night time activities on the Las Vegas Strip, which has earned it the nickname "Sin City". Las Vegas is the county seat of Clark County and is the the most populous city in Nevada with a population of more than 1,951,000 people in the metro area. Vegas has earned itself an "anything goes" attitude with regards to leisure activities and the expectations of those who visit there. A popular phrase used to describe some of the more unsavory pleasures the city may yield is, "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas".
- Reno: Reno is a city in the northwest section of the U.S. state of Nevada, along the Nevada-California border, about 22 miles (35 km) from Lake Tahoe, known as "The Biggest Little City in the World". Known for its casino and tourism industry, Reno is the county seat and largest city of Washoe County and sits in the High Eastern Sierra foothills, in the Truckee River valley, on the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada. The Reno metro area (along with the neighboring city Sparks) occupies a valley colloquially known as the Truckee Meadows, which because of large-scale investments from Greater Seattle and San Francisco Bay Area companies such as Amazon, Tesla, Panasonic, Microsoft, Apple, and Google has become a new major technology center in the United States.
- Simmonsville: Simmonsville is a swatch of land located in the state of Nevada. In 1988, the US government used a swatch of desert as a testing ground for atomic weapons. The weapons triggered the doorway to another dimension – Hell. At this point in time, the Malebolgia took the stolen memories of Al Simmons and fused them with pscyhoplasm. The psychoplasm created Simmonsville based on Al’s memories. Jason Wynn had Al Simmons killed not because of professional disagreements, but because he had made a bargain with the Malebolgia. Wynn would offer the Malebolgia an expendable killer in exchange for a supply of psychoplasm.
