Tylor is the oldest sibling and the head and brains of the Maier family. The Maiers are known as a family that not only owns a small firm but also holds on very dearly to what they consider theirs.
Tylor has younger siblings: the charismatic Sidney, the strong Jaydon, and the eccentric Andy. But without Tylor, the family would have been left destitute or, even worse - they would have fallen apart. Now, Tylor is in charge, amongst other things, of managing the family's bank account, and they are good at it. They like to keep an eye on everything. The ‘two pairs of eyes’ principle is always useful for decisions big and small, and the second pair should preferably always belong to Tylor.
Late Momma Maier started from nothing, and Tylor wants to play their cards right so that one day, they shall rule an empire. They have their big plans and dreams - now they just need to get their family in line to achieve these. Maybe, then, they can stop living a life of endless labour and focus fully on living the good life. Tylor hopes their children will never have to get their hands dirty.
The problem is that the family is falling apart due to internal disputes, substance abuse, and quite a few differences in how they see the future of La Cage. Tylor cares about one thing only—can they keep the family on the path to success?

The Suzerainists/The Globalists

Suzerainists believe in self-governance for Revachol and the very intense need for its independence. They mostly follow right-wing values, some of them are very nostalgic towards pre-Revolution imperium, and some of the Revolutionary communists might find themselves also aligned with this point of view. They are hostile towards the Coalition, partly Moralintern and very much towards corporations. They have a lot of revisionary sentiment.
Suzerainists mostly gather around the leadership of von Bergens, but there is a possibility for some discussion on who is best suited to lead them. They wear a Revachol sun as a symbol of clear allegiance to Revachol.

Globalists are people who mostly believe in some version of the current status quo, want to be under the Coalition control, believe that corporations can be reined in/ controlled/ regulated only by international control, or are not a problem at all. They would mostly tend towards centrist, centre-left ideas and they do not mind things taking quite some time. They wear blue forget-me-nots, showing allegiance to Moralintern and Coalition. At this moment, Globalists are hardly organized. The Moralintern mission in the block is trying to stay away from local politics. Jacqueline Baciu is considered a hero by some, old, washed up, and possibly corrupted by others.

Fight Club

“Come by and watch the spectacle! Watch adults pummel each other bloody! Watch the gladiators of our modern times face off for your amusement!” So read the worn posters and flyers every week. The Fights are happening weekly, and are one of the few entertainment establishments in La Cage. Everyone knows the story of the rise of the “Red Bannerman” and the “Twirling Moustache” - glorious fighters in a bloody sport. As part of the Fight Club, you might be one of these fighters, facing off with wooden sticks, some bringing the finesse of ancient samaran martial arts, while others beat down their opponents with brute force.

Apartment Block A

Everybody who lives in La Cage is mostly poor and desperate. The families and professionals living in Apartment Blocks are the ones who really try to keep some semblance of normality in their lives. The Block A is the wealthier one - it consists of people that are sure to have food even next week but are not entirely sure if they can get medical care in times of need. All while enjoying the luxury of reliable electricity and mostly repaired windows. The people living here have at least some "power" due to their jobs, but almost everybody is afraid that their little slice of paradise will be taken from them by relocation to a different flat.
