When Arkadia was first founded, the city was the perfect place for new couples to move and start a family. The city was very family friendly and had many opportunities to get a job. The living spaces were nice and not overly expensive. The city boomed within its first five years. The limits had to be expanded to accommodate a state of the art dock. Buildings where being upgraded to be top of the line and up with the latest technological advances. It really was the best place to live.
Ten years from the time to city was found, a new family moved into the city. They where a family of old money and had lots of influence over the new city. They were very secretive and almost no one knew their names, or even who they where. The only thing known about them was that the father almost controlled the government. Almost what ever the family said happened.
Five years from the day the family moved in, the city started to go under. Slowly the government started to fall apart. Cops became corrupt and the crimeless streets boomed with crime. Murders and rapes happened left and right. Before the rest of the country found out, many families fled. Most weren't fortunate enough though. Once the word got out about the corrupted city, people weren't able to leave. The whole country shunned the once perfect city.
The citizens where left with no where to turn. Mobs and gangs started to pop up all over the city. Pimps started to round up women and forced them to work for them. A single street in the downtown area became known as the Red Light where everyone who was anyone went.
All this happened in the span of two years. The town hall was all but abandoned once the government fell. The family, minus one member, moved away. It's said that the one person that stayed behind now lives in the Town Hall. Guards constantly patrol the outside of the building. No one knows who lives in the Town Hall. They don't even know if the person is a man or a women. They just simply refer to them as 'the corrupter'. The only thing they know is to fear 'the corrupter'. With one word, your life can be taken if 'the corrupter' so wishes. Very few ever meet the elusive person, and even fewer ever come back out.
