The region of Abbotts has been a center for aviation activity since before the Erase. The aerodrome started out as a tiny regional airport serving small bush airplanes, airships and other steam-powered and combustion-engined contraptions. A drive to stop it’s initial construction, led by Phyneas Jack, was defeated and the original Abbots Aerodrome (note the original name difference) was born. In January of 2004 A.D., after Linden Lab extended the Grid into points south of Immaculate, access was allowed to the old Abbots location. The Lindens changed the name to “Abbotts,” to reflect their northern California origin, and the Aerodrome’s present incarnation was established by Cubey Terra and Apotheus Silverman.

The heart of Alfendale, an old Islefen village, was located in the Phobos region. This small town, and all of its inhabitants, vanished without a trace prior to the Great Erase. Today Champie Jack’s Tooblife, the sport combining water polo and inner tubes, makes its home there.

Tucked away in a secret location just off the coast of Bodega is the headquarters of the Explorers, a rag tag group of ordinary residents and Lab workers who set out, together, to do extraordinary things. If you can find their lair, you might just stumble right into the middle of an unexpected adventure.
