Players are welcome to create whatever types of locales suit their scenes, but there are some established locations in various neighborhoods that are recurring game favourites, collected here for ease of remembering. If you ever need a quick reference guide to what types of establishments are well established and where, this page is here to help with that!
Locations marked with a double-asterisk (**) are openly mutant-friendly. One asterisk (*) are locations that are not explicitly mutant-friendly but are known to ambivalent enough that obvious or known mutants will have less trouble there. Locations marked with a hash (#) hostile to mutants and will actively deny service to obvious mutants.
If you add a desc to the bot, please remember to add it here as well.
We keep a map of IC locations here to help give an idea of where these places are situated geographically around New York.
