I'd have to say (and i'm making shit up here wholesale, because it's not touched on at all in the WIP) that at that specific moment in time there were not any festivals happening as it was in between seasonal events... (2/

I didn't really get into this, but i guess these culture places would be around the immediate area around the Registratum Spire, located on what's known as The Shelf, a section of the cavern that rises above the rest on a kilometer high cliff... (1/

Good morning, #Septopolis.

Let's talk some places to house and display culture. This can also include opera houses, music halls, and festival grounds too! What do they look like? Where are they in the place (rich/poor area)?

And what's the most important thing they're showing off, and why is it?

A daily prompt card for #Septopolis 2026, hosted by @khonri.com.

Economy & Entertainment, 23. Are there any notable museums, theatres, and/or other such venues found here? At the time your story takes place, what is the most significant piece on display or act being performed?

Interpret each prompt as suits your needs! Talk about relevant characters! Yap! Or don't! Develop a new city or whatever or talk about one you already built. Make friends.

The background features a slightly blurred and purple hued image of the upper section of a set photograph of Main Commercial Street in Fritz Lang's Metropolis (UFA, 1927) of towering buildings.

A particular utility that the Celestial Temple offers is fire. Every temple has always maintained a fire that the community is free to light from.

Even the ones that have to do so manually, rather than miraculously.

Though Safe Harbor has enough miracle workers to make house-calls.

Pro sports are a big part of modern life on Tenalus, and many different sports are played around the world.

In the 4xx sectors, the most popular sports (in rough order of most to least supporters) are:

Rugby
Baseball
Basketball
Football (soccer)
Cricket
Lacrosse
Ice Hockey

@davidaludwig.bsky.socialSep 22, 2026, 10:28 PM

Knightly Tournaments are THE sporting event in Terre Reine. Less so in Safe Harbor specifically.

But a local passion for hand-ball games could set up for fun in Book 3. I could see the Temple reinforcing their walls rather than discourage wall-ball as the church did in our Europe.

Gambling is huge in Belaqua. What kind of games, I haven't decided yet, I'm going to explore that more through the eyes of the characters.

The local families would have some sort of sportsball game that they break out on festival days... again, haven't decided anything about this yet.

Today Eloy has pickleball and I bet the alt-future does, too.

No local pro sports teams, but the Rochesters’ daughter, Ember, loves robot combat (think #BattleBots), so alt-future Eloy has arenas for probably up to the 30-pound weight class and holds big competitions... #Septopolis #HistorytownAZ

Fishing!

The City of Gates has some of the best deep-sea fishing in the entire world, and there are usually several tournaments a year with different focuses and prizes.

Some of the locals pride themselves on being the best fishers in the region and like to show off a bit. 🧵

22) Sports

The biggest sporting event in Platypus Station is the Galactic Games.

They're as big a deal as the Olympics, just cyberpunk flavored. All Alliance members and prospective members are invited to compete.

It's a great source of "soft diplomacy" for Alliance members who

When it comes to sports teams, Werthamitea are spoiled for choice: there's the Warriors (football), the Wolves (basketball), the Walruses (ice hockey), the Bricklayers (baseball)... Among the venues, old Kirby Stadium is still the most iconic, with its classical-inspired statues.

Sports present a unique challenge for Folk, given their wide range of sizes and physical abilities (though Ratball is getting popular among the smaller and faster crowd), so Central Planning has been promoting chess as a "universal" game that also celebrates Folk's newfound sapience.

#TheDragonblood: I'm not sure if I have anything specific to Zonhaspalis, but it's also worth thinking about sports and games in Nemoria generally.

Now, foresight and fate manipulation add new ways to cheat at probability and strategy games alike.

A22. There are a lot of extreme sports in regards to the airship circuit. (The Treasure Planet + some Tailspin inspo is coming thru now). Now that airships are used for more than freight + commerce, there's also air shows & essentially cruises

#Septopolis I suppose the sport of the day would be pit fighting.

Two or more folks, in the dead firepit in the middle of a tavern, slugging it out, akin to Victorian-style boxing. The winner is the last one standing. No weapons, except on special fight nights.

Day 22 of #Septopolis!

Now this is something I haven't given much thought about at all! But I would like to, as games further typify what kind of a village something like Moondale could potentially be!

Day 21 of #Septopolis!

An easy question today, as I've scattered its answers amongst the previous days of this month.

For Moondale, it's obviously crafts (marble & limestone) and farming, followed by hunting game and beer brewing.

There's a lot of sport in the Underworld actually, but mostly there is GAMBLING.

The most common game of chance is the ancient game of Patolli, using 5 beans dotted on one side as dice.

But, there is also Poktapok (ring ball), and Ocelot Races.

I've mentioned the sport of Gladiatorial Virtual Reality (GladiViR)—which originated in Arcadia—several times in this game and that its premier annual event is Children of the Earth (CoE). I'll use this prompt to explain it in more detail.
