Shuuvan is a horizon realm the touches many points in the city of El Cajon. It is at the same time a city, another dimension with its own rules, and a steam punk machine ship. Picture, if you can a ship flying between the space between realms. This ship would be the size of a large city with portals to it connected to El Cajon. The sky overhead is in perpetual twilight state, like an unseen sun. The winding streets are lite by gas lights. the building look like a mixture of Victorian England and giant copper piper machine.
While you can play an entire Mage story and never learn of this Horizon realm if you don't want to on the other hand once there you can stay as long as you like.
If you fond yourself in Shuuvan here are the things you will need to know.
It is has its own population of sleepers descendants from the realm creators.
The realm is rule by and Aristocratic Mageocracy.
Reduced gravity: the first thing you will notice is that is is perfectly normal to see people leaping 30 feet in to the air to land softly on a ledge above.
Dynamic reality: as a separate wold Shuuvan has its own reality, there is a belief in magic that does not exist on earth. It is common knowledge on the streets of Shuuvan that some people can through fireballs. this is simply fact to them. in game terms it effects the following spheres.
Forces: Directed energy attacks do not draw paradox. nor do shields and counters of the same use.
Mind: all spells of this sphere have there difficulty increased by 3 and are considered vulgar not only is it disbelieve but the culture of the realm has demonized this sort of magic.
Correspondence: when used in conjugation with the cities transport system called mage gates they do not attract paradox.
