Fernava Province

General Information
While Fernava may be connected to Gensekai, since its establishment in Year 310. (Current year is 483). It's always been considered to be a separate place of Gensekai; even if the latter provides some of the energy used to maintain Fernava. They have adopted a shared sense of neutrality towards each other's existence; and as such, most Fernavians don't deal with much magic. It's frowned upon to engage in anything too magic-like in the general public; as many may not be comfortable. As for how it is run; Fernava is mostly free. In the sense that anyone can make their businesses; monopolies are frowned upon. There does exist some basic protection and other things akin to the city, but many local matters are handled by Private Organizations. Of course; the people in power who bring change to Fernava are the several crime families who add fire to the underbelly of Fernava. Many businesses owe their protections to them; though some are neutral. The underground criminal landscape of Fernava remains to thrive nicely. Regardless of how it is run; the Province is divided into several Districts, which will be covered next.

Central District
With the Eon Bridge of Fernava leading right into the Central District. Its borders have paths that lead to the other districts, and it acts as the central Hub of Fernava. Compact with taller buildings; there's a sense of awestruck smallness when inside of it. A blend of modern and old. It has a good amount of domestic businesses but some of the more organized parties also base themselves here. Overall; while not having an immense pull; it's a perfectly great introduction for Fernava.

Moonstone District
The Moonstone District; while one of the smallest; is filled with entertainment and brightly colored shops and streets. It acts mostly as a great hub for outings in the day, and even has a fair and amusement park! At night; the place lights up with its lanterns and streetlights. Overall, while not a place to live in, if you're looking for a fun outing to pass a day; this the place you should go!

Chartreuse District
One of the only places where heavy modernization has been placed down; Chartreuse acts as mostly a district for storage and holding resources for Fernava, though there are a few recreational places and residential buildings for those working a busy life. It also has the greatest amount of businesses and is very important in what it supplies for the Province as a whole. Those with a more urban taste will enjoy this district. Ironically; it also has the greatest amount of visible organized crime.

Scarlet District
Scarlet is one of the more eccentric districts; being as it has many conflicting styles within certain sectors of it. It's been described as the fancy community; complete with some gated communities placed around. Overall though; a pleasant place, though shady businesses can be seen in the alleys and all. There is also a canal that serves as a port of travel within the district; and also to bring supplies in.

Forsythia District
Forsythia is credited as being the first District made all those years ago, though in recent times it's the least in population. It is most similar to Gensekai in its natural landscapes and beautiful structures. It has been regarded as the district with the most magical influence. It's considerably more disconnected from the rest of Fernava and has more focus on local businesses and grassroots connections.

Joygate District
The Joygate District is perhaps the quietest and calm of them all. Ironically; its aesthetic leads to something more drab and downtrodden. The sky is almost constantly greyed, lending to a very dismal atmosphere. Though, this district appeals to a certain demographic of those loving the occult. The residents are perhaps the most eccentric in Fernava. 83 years ago; a disaster did occur here. In year 400, Crimson Lily, otherwise known as the Vampire Queen made her move and her reign in Joygate; and subsequently her influence on the rest of Fernava lasted for some two decades, during which a blanket of fear was placed across. Though; she was defeated by Shigetsuna Clan, (which will be explained later). Now Joygate exists quietly and calmly, the scars of the Crimson Disaster still visible.

Ironvale District
The Ironvale District could be described as being stuck in an almost medieval past. Here is where the homeless and unfortunate may find themselves living in hiding from the crime families or other reasons out of their control. A refuge; but also a place of violence. Both disorganized and organized crime is rampant, and it's commonplace for various dealings. Be careful.

Shoreside District
Nominally the smallest District; Shoreside is mostly a place used for recreation. Some products from Gensekai are brought in from the ports; making this District and Forsythia the one most connected to the world outside of Fernava. Much of its businesses are water-related, and it's built on the layers of a cliff near the ocean. Overall; beautiful and sweetly simple.

Head Crime Families
As mentioned before, Head Families in the underworld of Fernava are who call major shots. Many businesses and allies; both illegal and legal paying some for supplies and protections, though not all are so kind. Siding with a family is a contract for life. While rare; some purely neutral facilities and groups exist outside their power; though, with such a competitive environment, they may get choked out eventually.

Carmeli Family
Accepted to be the most powerful family; the Carmeli's have quite a presence. They have some influence in every district and provide protections for businesses that pay their 'fees'. The Family most similar to a traditional mafia; they take pride in their work and do not take disrespect on the street or in the news; making it a dangerous game with them. All direct members of the Carmeli family are denoted with a special tattoo drawn around their necks, a dark rose at the front center, with its thorns spreading all around.

The Carmeli's also have a calling card whenever they have a direct hand in the, 'erasing' of someone. This usually involves the beheading of the target of whoever incurred their wrath. They have a special way of doing this deed, which is unknown to the general public to prevent copycats.

Medina Family
A matriarchy; the Medina Family is the direct rival to the Carmeli's. With most of their influence within the Joygate and Scarlet District. They operate in largely the same way as the Carmeli's but have a direct rivalry and mutual hatred for each other. They share the same kind of tattoo identification; with direct family members of the Medina's having a silver feather drawn onto the back of their right hand.

They have a special calling card as well; which involves a special kind of poison produced only by the family being used whenever they have direct involvement in getting rid of somebody.

Shigetsuna Clan
Compared to the rest of the families; Shigetsuna can be argued to be morally grey overall. While the smallest; it is the most dedicated and trained. It doesn't pay any businesses or have any indirect associates and acts more like a group of assassins. Inspired by Samurai; many of the Clan are dressed in specially-patterned kimonos whenever seen in public. Wearing one of these without being a member is seen as disrespectful and can result in being a target.

The Shigetsuna Clan acts as mediators and only seen active whenever a disaster that plans to destroy Fernava arises; or when any of the other families begin to overstep their boundaries. They are also the most prepared whenever a yokai attempts to cause trouble; being well gifted with yokai extermination. They gravitate towards Forsythia and anyone can join the Clan; fighting in stoic stability.

Griffin Gang
Brutish. The Griffin Gang doesn't take pay but seems to only be around to cause violence for their enjoyment. There isn't much to say about it; every district has its group of Griffins that cause trouble; be it petty crimes or violence against other families. Be careful whenever entering one of their neighborhoods. A constant thorn in Fernava's side.

Komatsu Journal
The biggest newspaper in Fernava! Nothing much else to it! Very trusted among the citizens for providing a view without bias, and having such a presence that they can cover more delicate topics and not face much consequence.

Aeryn Syndicate
Known as A.S. The Aeryn Syndicate supplies much of the technology that is used in some of Fernava's districts. Having pushed Trinity out of relevancy outside of giving energy. Little else is known about the inner workings of the company. Established right after the Crimson Disaster to help with recovery.

Mr. Astro
Mr. Astro, first name unknown; is currently the C.E.O and man in charge of the A.S. Unlike his company which works in mystery; Astro can be seen around Fernava and contributing in meaningful ways around the Province.

Pierce Twygz
One of the highest judges in Fernava's court. Pierce is renowned for his ability and foresight during his trials; and the ability to make sure things are secured. Besides his accolades as a judge; he owns the Mahōkādo Casino. He has never lost a single game of chance in his life of being active; though any income he earns from his bets is either returned or given to the less fortunate. A very peculiar character.

Valienta Solomon
A praised and loved figure amongst Fernava, and to lesser degree, Gensekai. She's known for protecting the lives of residents against threats that greatly vary in hostility, mostly commonly Yokai attacks. The woman has handled a myriad of apocalyptically dangerous situations - always coming out alive. To the general public, she is viewed as a wonderfully sweet and kind-hearted girl who would always put others before her. A saint, even. Though in reality, she's extremely stand-offish and closed in. It takes a lot for her to create any emotional bond at all after her past experiences.

Forming a team with the girl is recognized as a death sentence as all of her past team members have been slaughtered. As of right now, she continues her job of protection (admittedly not of her own choice). Suffice to say, she's decided to work alone this time.

Spider-Man
A new face that has appeared, Spider-Man has started to become a loved name for his personality and vehement way of protecting Fernava and connecting with some of its people. Many are curious to see where it goes.

Phoenix Wright
As a relatively fresh face in the world of Gensekai, Phoenix Wright is not native to the land. However, he has picked up on the customs well enough to establish a second, temporary law-office-dubbed-agency inside of Fernava's central district. Mr. Wright's possessions giving his original office its... 'unique' look may not be present, but the ever-familiar faces of the previous agency residing here give it the charm it needs. Supposedly, according to him, his associates, and the badge he's presented to many common folks in Gensekai, Phoenix Wright is a top-notch defense attorney from his homeland. Along with Apollo Justice, he sets to prove it, willing and ready to solve the cases that await them during their stay.

Dick Gumshoe
Supposedly from the same "United States" that Phoenix Wright and co. are from, Detective Gumshoe has made himself home inside of the Fernava Police Department. Word of mouth has it that he impressively assembled his own investigative devices to solve even the most unusual of murder cases with Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth, back in his homeland. Word of mouth also has it that the good detective nearly burst into tears when he saw his first paycheck, claiming he 'no longer needed to live on instant noodles 24/7', and 'always wanted to try out those 'flaming hot cheese stick crackers everyone's been talking about'.

Keiko Tsubasa
An unusual green-haired individual arriving out of the blue, much like many of Gensekai's most recent, otherworldly faces. Currently the defendant in a murder case located in the Fernava province. Sources claim she is a demolitions expert from another land, and the wife of one Zenji Yamakawa, who was similarly transported to Gensekai. Otherwise, little is known about her.

Hart 3.5
Hart has become notable for his bombastic personality and design. Being a robot! His list of accolades is long; being an announcer, TV Show host, Podcast Runner, Fashion Lines, Alcohol Producers, and Cosmetics!

Terrance O. Aster & Teevee R.

Svetlana Virgil & Dallas Virgil
Another duo; The Virgil Siblings are known for different reasons. Svetlana is loved for her beauty and generous nature. She is a fashion queen and has a line of clothes and beauty products. She is also quite good at singing. Her other large accolade is having an organization dedicated to supporting victims of abuse in both the workplace and at home. She is also an organizer of shows and loves giving new and coming performers assistance!

Dallas on the other hand has a much more quiet presence; he is beloved for his songwriting that tackles problems about people and their relationships; concerning any aspect of life. He is impressive in his ability to play many instruments. Though, his public voice is much more quiet compared to his sister.

Millie
A fairly new member of the entertainment group who's made her name in the public eye of entertainment; she is notable because of her species; being a Pinata Tsukumogami. Her brand is well-known for being commonly seen in commercials and other one-off gigs. She also has her make-up line. Part of her charm is said to be her brash and vulgar personality contrasting with her cute looks.

Evening Amputator
A serial murderer; known for stealing belongings and taking the arms of particular victims. Most corpses found without arms are presumed to be their doing, and most likely are. Their motif is using a variety of surgical and brutal weaponry, it is presumed that a wire saw is used in amputation. The brutality in which their victims die varies. Targets include adults from around the range of 20-40 as well as famous celebrities, mostly all victims are males. There is a common theme of married or engaged men being targeted. Their physical attributions are unknown but they are also depicted as male. Any witnesses to their crimes are murdered; with their tongues taken.

The Lotus Killer
Also called the Hidden Lotus; he is another serial murderer. His likeness has been seen; a man with green hair; doing his killings with a simple white mask with two holes for the eyes and a simple smile on it. Flowers are painted onto the mask. To match, he wears a white poncho that conceals much of his other features. Said to stand at 6 feet. Victims of his killings are usually maimed; with varying levels of intensity.

She acts as a protector of the common people and has been described as a Wind of Harsh Justice. Her calling card is leaving behind a katana inside of the heart of her victims; with a blade coated in a unique oil.

Trick
Occurring some time even before the Crimson Disaster; Trick was a student at Misterios Maiden Academy. She was the focal point of the Harbringer Incident, also called the Scarlet Incident. The Young student, who pursued knowledge that they were not ready to handle. As a result... their entire classroom paid the price with their lives, and the student's entire existence became cursed. After meeting with the judges of Fernava, the teacher requested that the student, an orphan by the name of Trick, be exiled. Many stay away from her as touching her has resulted in bad consequences. Mostly seen in Ironvale.

Crimson Lily
While she has since left Fernava to live in Gensekai; her lesser vampires that work under her have been attributed to many current disappearances in Fernava. Crimson is a feared name due to the disaster she incurred; and has been said to have ties to the Medina Family, (which has several vampires). As of now; her influence is none. She is only a problem that persists to annoy.

Fenrir Morningclaw
Five years ago; Fenrir Morningclaw, one of the most prosperous brokers in the Black Market was sent to Naraka after turning himself in. He was involved in a certain court case; dubbed JZ-2. A case shrouded in a persisting cloud of mystery. Fenrir is the most feared man in prison; he has been said to be on perfect behavior and only retaliating when provoked.
