Overall Description:

  Pensacola in the Word of Darkness is not geographically different from its mundane incarnation. Its population density has increased fourfold; totaling 1.2 Million residents in Escambia County. Its pulse lies in religion, and in those roots lie the heart of the residents. Pensacola holds a world’s record for most churches per square block; and that is no different in the World of Darkness. Its streets are more crowded; its streetlights more yellowed and the shady dealings more commonplace. It is what most larger cities are today; corrupt to the core, and jealous of anything that can clean it up.
  The City of Pensacola is broken into five parts, Northside, Eastside, Westside, Southside, and Central.
Ft Walton, Crestview, Navarre, and Destin shall follow the Eastside template; with immediate coastal regions following the Southside template.
  Gulf Breeze proper (to the Pensacola Beach Bridge); and Pensacola Beach shall follow the Southside Template. The area between Gulf Breeze proper and Navarre shall follow the Eastside Template.
Milton, Cantonment, and Holly will follow the Northside template. At ST discretion, specific smaller regions may follow the Westside Template.

 

History Changes:

          Pensacola’s History remains largely unchanged until this century.  In the early 1900’s, when the railroads pounded through the area, and the logging mills were disappearing; the Navy decided NOT to place their naval aviation training bases here, thereby changing the history of Pensacola forever. 

Changes from Reality:

  • The current site of NAS: Pensacola is in two parts.  The antique buildings are preserved as part of a Historical Community.  There are tours and private leasing available.  The other part is anything that is currently part of the Naval Base.  This area is all part of a Corporation called TCS (Trans-Continental Shipping) [link], which deals in the subleasing of global commodities exchange stationing and equipment.
  • The current site of Corry Station is a Westside campus for UWF, or its World of Darkness equivalent.
  • The current site of Saufley Field (former NAS area) is a Florida State Penitentiary.
  • The current site of Eglin AFB is an International Airport; which has direct land and rail connections to TCS.
  • The Docks downtown have been privatized, and are home to 100% civilian/non-commercial traffic.  It is well policed, both in and out of the water.

Police stations are scattered throughout the five quadrants; with primary facilities (jails) located at the following locations:

  • Leonard and P St (Main County Jail)
  • 8th Street and Cervantes (Main City Jail)
  • Nine Mile and Scenic (Small Holding Facility)
  • Gulf Beach Hwy and Sorrento Blvd (Small Holding Facility)
  • Old Corry and Lillian Hwy (Small Holding Facility)
