xxxxxThe clean lit sign for the Sublime Center is in sharp contrast to its actual accommodations. Large tinted windows are covered with the residue of a thousand posters, flyers, and advertisements a hundred times removed and replaced to the point that it defies a window washer's efforts thoroughly. Inside the office is divided by several mismatched cubicles and similarly diverse office furniture ranging in quality from flat-packed to 20 year old donations, and each desk seems to have a personal touch of family pictures, potted plants, or other knick knacks that would be out of place in a more corporate setting.
xxxxxHuge bulletin boards are covered in business cards, brochures, meeting agendas and sign ups, and campaign posters advocating mutant rights and equality with various high handed slogans such as 'My Genetics do not Define Me', to a picture of a multicultural set of children, one of which is green skinned.
xxxxxA meeting room is off to the side with a dozen chairs in a dozen different styles, and a reception desk is manned by overworked volunteers at nearly all hours.

| Notes & Trivia
|
- There are a number of such centers set up around the city, and while each individual center may have slightly differing services they offer, different meeting times, etc, they all are set up with a number of ways to help mutants who might need assistance.
- The Sublime Centers function as community centers for mutants. They have meeting space available for groups to use where it might be hard to secure locations otherwise; mutant-friendly support groups, AA meetings, even things as eclectic as yoga groups and speed dating and book clubs meet here through different times of the week.
- In addition to this, the Centers act as a hub for resources that can be very difficult for mutants to find elsewhere. Though they do not provide these concrete services themselves, they have contacts for mutant-friendly legal aid, information on businesses willing to hire mutants and landlords willing to rent to them, lots of the things required for normal life that are often so much difficult to find while mutant.
- The Sublime Foundation does a lot of outreach through the city; they're always looking for volunteers both to help staff their shelters and to go out into the city to spread awareness of their relatively new efforts.
- Lawyers the Sublime Center has helped procure are representing Jackson Holland and Dusk against their terrorism allegations; additionally, they're helping several of the tenants of the Village Lofts with their fight against discriminatory anti-mutant evictions.
