 Fountains line the expansive central square, leading up to the marble columns of the town hall. When the Mayor speaks from the dais on the steps, thousands can gather into the square. The Central District is usually dotted with people in no particular rush, taking advantage of the surprisingly open space so close to the centre of Citropolis. Fountains line the expansive central square, leading up to the marble columns of the town hall.

 Marble steps, double doors and countless columns form a grand entrance to a building which few people, except the Mayor and others who work there, ever have a reason to enter. The real action happens on the steps, where Mayor Meyer frequently speaks about his plans for policy. Marble steps, double doors and countless columns form a grand entrance to a building which few people, except the Mayor and others who work there, ever have a reason to enter.

 The front of this hospital is one of the older buildings in the city, but it has been expanded many times with more modern wards. The near endless wards treat every major medical problem in Citropolis, and helico-ambulances swarm the building bringing emergency patients in. The front of this hospital is one of the older buildings in the city, but it has been expanded many times with more modern wards.

-Spark medical care can be a lottery - doctors aren't well trained to deal with the diverse problems faced by Sparked individuals, and it can be difficult for Sparks to get medical care, even for problems unrelated to their Spark. Many go to the smaller Spark Clinic in the Redevelopment Area District - willing to endure long wait times for better-informed care.+Spark medical care can be a lottery -- doctors aren't well trained to deal with the diverse problems faced by Sparked individuals, and it can be difficult for Sparks to get medical care, even for problems unrelated to their spark.

 +Citropolis' police force are unequipped to deal with powerful Spark related issues, such as fighting The Phoenix. More every day Sparks do have to worry about appearing dangerous to the police. Any young person deemed "too dangerous" is likely to be quickly sent to [[ahisi|The Alan Hoyne Institute]].

-**Mayor Meyer (he/him):** Winston Meyer is coming towards the end of his first term in office - a post his great grandfather held 80 years ago. His main claim to fame is the installation of the monorail (sometimes called the Meyerail), which revolutionised city transport. Meyer has also been noted for his relationship with Wallace and his - thus-far subtle - push for anti-Spark legislation, but these are ugly topics that he, and his voters, would rather not dwell on.+**Mayor Meyer (he/him):** Winston Meyer is coming towards the end of his first term in office -- a post his great grandfather held 80 years ago.

 + 
 +**Wallace Udarnik (he/him):** Sparked Defender of Citropolis, Wallace is a Spark with flight, superhuman strength, and invulnerability. Following the events of [[fallout|The Fallout]], he became a stalwart advocate of government measures to protect citizens from the "dangers of Sparks". When needed, he flies out into the city in his plain white cape to deal with superhuman catastrophe; the rest of the time, he lives in a secure compound of his own volition. Wallace never had an alter-ego, instead preaching that it's best for everyone that Sparks come clean about who they are. Of late, he has frequently battled The Phoenix.
