The district with the thickest atmosphere and the shortest tempers. Nod's entertainment industry, such as it is, operates from Redlight's cramped blocks of theaters, gambling dens, fighting pits, and establishments of less categorizable purpose. The Garden, the city's most notorious nightclub and bordello, operates here alongside the Dead Disco, a Spectre-frequented club with a clientele that trends toward the unsettling end of undeath, and the Cyanide Club, a private establishment whose membership requirements and activities echo Earth's historical Hellfire Clubs. The Masques who work the district use their glamour openly, which gives the streets a disorienting quality; a face on a billboard changes depending on who's looking at it, and the music bleeding from basement venues sounds different to every passerby.
The heat in Redlight is worse than elsewhere in the city, for reasons no one has adequately explained, and it brings out what the locals call "the crazies", a manic, often dangerous condition experienced by all species equally.
