Welcome to Bishop City

Bishop City, MA; a place filled with strangers who every day meet other strangers, by accident or design. It's a place where it's easy to disappear, but also to be found again, by strangers. For years, the city has been de facto divided into four separate sections; the wealthy West Side, the business district of North End, the realm of the average, South End, and the poverty stricken and gang ruled East Side, but the borders are bleeding, for better or for worse. There is hope in the city for a different future, but what kind of future will it be? Can 'Shop City really change?

There is a serial killer on the loose!

	THE SYMBOLOGIST In the past month, three bodies have been fished out of the Bishop City Channel, all naked and bearing strange symbols carved into their flesh. The victims have no apparent connection between them, the first being a nineteen year old nursing student from South End, the second a high flying business man from North End, and the third an elderly woman from East Side. Very little evidence has been found to aid in the search for the person responsible for the murders, and the tension in the city is high. Going out alone after dark is strongly advised against, and the police is asking the public to be on their guard. A hotline has been set up for people to report anything and anyone suspicious.	4	18	Feb 1 2013, 12:19 AM In: thorns By: Alexander Atwood
