La Republique des Gueules — keep your muzzle down.

beast-punk noir · industrial era · year 2026

Wildways: a rain-slicked, vertical beast-punk noir city. Saint-Gueule rises in tiers — fur and feathers in the fog, tram cables like harp strings, jazz from basement dens, the Republic of Muzzles running politics with teeth.

The story of Wildways

Beast-folk citizens, guild wards stacked by altitude, rain that never quite stops. The higher the tier, the cleaner the claws — supposedly. Every alley has a debt, every rooftop a view worth dying for.

Places

  • Saint-Gueule · city. A vertical, rain-drenched industrial sprawl clinging to the cliffs of a dark coastline.
  • Harbor Gutter · region. The lowest tier, where steam-pipes hiss and the ocean spray mixes with coal smoke.
  • Guild Middle Wards · region. The industrial heart, filled with factories, workshops, and underground jazz clubs.

······
  • High Clean-Claw Terraces · region. The sun-touched peak where the air is clear and the laws are written in silk.
  • Tram-Web · landmark. A dense tangle of cable-car lines connecting the tiers, vibrating like harp strings in the wind.

    • Peoples

    • Canid Dockers · stamina, loyal, gritty. Hard-working, thick-furred laborers who keep the supply lines of the harbor moving. They are known for their loyalty and endurance, though they bear the heaviest scars of the Tier Wars.
    • Felid Fixers · dexterous, cunning, opportunistic. Sleek, sharp-witted operators who dominate the middle wards. They serve as conduits for information and illegal modifications.
    • Corvid Couriers · agile, observant, chatty. Winged messengers who navigate the vertical labyrinth of the tram cables, acting as the city's unofficial nervous system.

    Powers and factions

    • Muzzle-Police · High Warden Bruin. The iron hand of the Republic, ensuring that 'muzzles are kept down' through patrols and brutal enforcement of silence.
    • Syncopation Syndicate · Madame Lynx. Owners of the city's basement jazz dens; they trade state secrets between saxophone riffs and poured rye.
    • High-Claw Council · Magistrate Boar-Tusk. The aristocratic elite who reside above the fog, drafting the laws that keep the lower tiers in productive decay.

    History

    • The Era of Chaos · Pre-Republic. Unregulated industrial expansion turned the harbor into a warzone of rival clans.
    • The Muzzle Accord · Founding-Year. The Tier Councils formed the Republic, mandating physical muzzle-restraints to enforce civil peace.
    • The Upward Mutiny · Tier-War-Era. A violent insurrection by the harbor dockers against the High-Claw Council; resulted in the current stalemate.
    • The Rainy Present · 2026. Tensions rise as the Syncopation Syndicate leaks secrets of a new, darker tier under construction.
