== '''Place:''' North Fairhaven Beta, aka "Beta", aka aka "Flipside" ==

'''Description:''' Fairhaven Beta is a remnant of the odd magical and technological past of the city. Eight years ago, an event occurred that has yet to be fully understood but involved the collision of two parallel realities. Most of the damage was resolved with little incident, but Fairhaven did pick up an anomaly as a result- a portion of the city that originally belonged to another reality, coming with about 20,000 citizens of that other dimension. As far as people can tell, the main differences between the dimensions are that the heroes of Fairhaven Beta were villains in their reality, and the villains were heroes. Plus a lot of logos for brands appear to be flipped upside down, hence the "Flipside" nickname. There are thousands of small differences, though... different memes, different mannerisms, hundreds of small divergence points throughout history that's made simple assimilation difficult. While most of the big bureaucratic and infrastructure problems have been sorted out by now, the integration may never entirely be complete.

'''Aspects:'''

''Things work differently here.''

''Reversal of expectations.''

''Never-ending friction.''

'''People:'''
Ralph Witterson - Ralph is the semi-official Betan "community leader". The Betans, by and large, view him as a kind of mayor-in-miniature, although his relationship with the official North Fairhaven city government is murky. Because of the initial pushback on official recognition of Betan citizenship and extending them rights, his predecessors forged alliances with Fairhaven organized crime that continue to this day. Ralph is a demagogue, and pushes the Betan population towards protests, strikes and demonstrations whenever he feels necessary. He deals at arm's reach with O.M.N.I and E.N.C.L.A.V.E over items of Betan technology and access to the occasional dimensional phenomena that still occur in the area.

'''Qualities:'''
