== Description == Redacre is a town located in Virginia within the [[wikipedia:United_States_National_Radio_Quiet_Zone|National Radio Quiet Zone (NRQZ)]]. It is a small town with a population of only a few thousand, described as a severely overgrown village with woods in between sections.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=February|d=21|y=2020|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/680328492138758154|image=Null_-_Few_Thousand.png}} {{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=March|d=25|y=2020|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/692275581978673173|image=Null_-_Overgrown_Village.png}} The orange city lights seen from the edge of [[Lower_East_Hoadly|Lower East Hoadly]] are a section of Redacre. [[SPEAK-AS-ONE]] founded and oversees Redacre. They often refer to it as their garden.{{CiteInteraction|m=September|d=28|y=2019|title=Slug crew threatened with salt}} {{CiteInteraction|m=February|d=8|y=2020|title=SAO Speaks on the Song and the Adversary}}{{CiteInteraction|m=January|d20=|y=2020|title=Greeting a New Followers}} [[:Category:Town Residents|Residents of Redacre]] are kept largely unaware of anything unusual and lead relatively normal lives not much different than any other family in the United States. The largest difference is a distinct and intentional exclusion of modern technology that saturates the town's culture. This exclusion is a highlight many residents value {{CiteArticle|title=Journals/Maligras Letter to School Board}} and is a selling point that draws some new residents into town. Some are so technophobic they fled to Redacre to avoid the Internet.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=June|d=1|y=2019|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/584619137582497803|image=Null_-_Fled_Internet.png}} Resident [[Maligras Quiroga]] attempted to appeal to the [[Journals/Maligras Letter to School Board|Redacre School Board]] to bring technology classes to Redacre, an act classified as opposing "Saturation laws" as "THEY WISHED TO BRING MACHINES TO TEACH THE YOUNG." {{CiteInteraction|m=November|d=7|y=2019|title=What the Voice hides}} Unlike other towns in the NRQZ, Redacre has no internet or cell services aside from the local [[CHORUS Communities]] provided service.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=December|d=30|y=2018|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/528977791232901150|image=Null_-_No_Internet.png}} Because of this, the residents of Redacre have very limited contact with the outside world. CHORUS is a constant presence in Redacre. They are foremost a housing program, but their name and influence can be found on local utility companies, [[Journals/Nayeli - Baby Book Entry 1|medical insurance claims]], and schools such as the [[Old Growth Daycare Center]].{{CiteArticle|title=The_Whisper_Twins/Quotes#Diverse}} Their goal is to collect unity-promoting minds from all over the world, people that subconsciously hold values that SPEAK-AS-ONE embodies.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=April|d=9|y=2020|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/698057452918407199|image=Null_-_Language_%26_All_Over.png}}{{CiteInteraction|m=April|d=14|y=2019|title=Belief Versus Emotion}} They consider Redacre their haven for when the outside world collapses.{{CiteInteraction|d=26|m=June|y=2020|title=We Are Patience}} Chorus is responsible for the local cell service{{CiteExternalWeb|last=Delaney|first=Mark|d=16|m=July|y=2019|url=https://www.gameskinny.com/xl413/among-demons-and-deities-an-interview-with-the-blackout-clubs-jordan-thomas|title= Among Demons and Deities: An Interview with The Blackout Club's Jordan Thomas|publisher=GameSkinny}}, so residents can call each other within the town, but not anywhere outside. Even with this service, residents often have little cellular connection and call quality is an issue, as seen in the [[Prologue#GET_PHONE|Prologue]] when [[Isabela_Madi-Shaw|Bells]] attempted to call her parents. All attempts to set up other signal broadcasts have failed (with one exception that did succeed from an outside source, but was short lived).{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=December|d=30|y=2018|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/528977791232901150|image=Null_-_No_Internet.png}} SPEAK-AS-ONE's followers believe town is a body that acts as one.{{CiteInteraction|m=April|d=14|y=2020|title=A Stalker's Beliefs}} To maintain, Chorus oversees the task of social engineering to keep Redacre looking dull and ordinary while staying functional for SPEAK-AS-ONE's goals. {{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=March|d=29|y=2020|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/693726247749943353|image=Null_-_Daytime_Plausability.png}} Locally, the population size means major businesses may have a few versions competing, but not dozens (i.e. two grocers, not ten.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=March|d=25|y=2020|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/692275581978673173|image=Null_-_Overgrown_Village.png}} The high school is Central High, and its mascot is a unspecified wildcat.{{Citation needed}} Residents celebrate holidays, such as Christmas and Halloween, as seen by decorations around Hoadly Street during their respective seasons. On higher levels, selective deals are stuck with government local and external, with people who are sympathetic to SPEAK-AS-ONE's ideals to ensure Redacre is as overlooked as possible.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=April|d=9|y=2020|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/698058307046211596|image=Null_-_Government.png}} Tourism is very carefully controlled and is usually a prelude to being invited to move to Redacre.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=September|d=19|y=2019|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/624475854524645387|image=Null_-_Tourism.png}} External franchises are allowed to set up businesses, but Chorus freezes out the ones that carry risk of bringing unconditioned strangers into town.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=November|d=30|y=2019|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/650401625260818466|image=Null_-_Keeping_Cover.png}} Some of the police force are [[Lucids]],{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=April|d=9|y=2020|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/698048790854107186|image=Null_-_Lucid_and_Lockdown.png}} backed up by the minute detail of a [[Journals/RPD Police Report|Police Report]] being "Case No. 543<u>SA1</u>-229". Overall, great measures and compromises have been made to keep Redacre hidden.{{CiteDiscord|user=Nullspeak|m=November|d=30|y=2019|url=https://discordapp.com/channels/442027980244647947/494555004250619911/650401625260818466|image=Null_-_Keeping_Cover.png}} Redacre has recently enacted a strict curfew that prevents residents from wandering around after dark due to a supposed [[Journals/Wildlife Alert|coyote invasion problem]] (though there have been no signs of said coyotes). Despite this, [[The Blackout Club (Group)|TBC members]] have undertaken investigation of Redacre's rampant [[Sleepers|sleepwalking]] problem though most adults do not seem to make much of it.
