== '''Place:''' The Garden District ==


North Fairland is a city reborn, but no rebirth is perfect. The Garden District is the rotten core of an otherwise prosperous city, and the last remnants of the corruption that reigned in the city's darker times. Repeated attempts to repair the district's rundown buildings and roads have all managed to fall by the wayside, and there are rumors that the city commission has been paid off by criminal elements to keep it that way. The denizens of the Garden District are mostly good people, but they suffer under the weight of organized crime and from the constant threat of supervillain violence. Several street-level superheroes call the GD home, working with the local police station to protect North Fairland's most vulnerable citizens.

'''Aspects:'''
 
''Don't linger for too long.''

''We have our own heroes.''

''Keep your head down, your mouth shut, and your eyes on your own business.''

'''People:''' Clementine Jackson
Mother Jackson is an elderly, wizened woman who lives in a ten-story walk-up deep in the heart of the GD. She's sweet, welcoming, wise, and has a hand in every bit of criminal activity that happens in her neighborhood. Multiple crime families pay her for protection, leaving thick envelopes full of cash with her "grandsons," hulking, identical quintuplets who act as her enforcers. There are rumors that Mother Jackson is a powerful super of some kind, but they are unsubstantiated. Despite the menacing aura that lingers just beneath the freshly baked cookies and hand-knit shawls, Mother Jackson seems to genuinely care about the GD. She holds court all day in her building, and often distributes food and clothing to locals who need it. In the past, she has given advice or even overt aid to neighborhood heroes when the GD has faced truly grave threats.

'''Qualities:'''

''Come in, come in. Cookie?''

''You should respect your elders, dear.''
