Buried Beneath the heart of New York City, in Manhattan lies a secret club known as the Underworld. This exclusive club is by invite only, and to get in you have to either know someone or make a name for yourself big enough to get recognized. In truth, while mortals do gather at the Underworld, all manner of the supernatural life of the city can be found here instead. Away from the structures of their society, these creatures and mortals in the know gather. While on the surface they all deal with the grander issues of the city itself; in the Underworld is you get to see the layers that support the city. While the vampires worry away about ancient horrors and the end times, or the werewolves in their bloody war, in the Underground the street and how the city works is all that matters. Here any supernatural can pick up a job, make friends and associates, and gain reputation in the streets of the city. Let the elders worry about tomorrow, you only care about tonight.

The movers and shakers of New York can always be found at the club looking for up and comers to take needed jobs for the city. In the underworld, anyone can carve a name for themselves. The club itself is something of a late 1980s vomit of gothic punk style. Cracked leather seats and the smell of cigarette smoke lingers in the air. Rumors spread like high school gossip here, and the bar is the best place to get the latest dish. Various dancers, including of the exotic kind dance on tables and on the floor. Luring others to spend their cash or stories. While the world of the Underworld is always spinning with new chances and opportunities, most of its frequent visitors believe it’s better to burn out then fade away.
