	For most, walking is the preferred method of getting around with biking at a close second. In some cases, a bicycle may be nothing more than a prop for a costume, but it does make for a convention transport. For those who may not be able to afford a motorcycle, there is also the option to ride a bicycle with a modified outer shell to appear more appropriate for their costume. Space Marine Bike Squads, for instance.		For most, walking is the preferred method of getting around with biking at a close second.

	'''Law Enforcement''' - Upholding order in Infinity City is a difficult endeavor. To make sure that the city operates smoothly and that major events occur without a hitch, the city has created two factions of law enforcement: Con Security (AKA ConSec ~~or C-Sec~~) and the Enforcers.		'''Law Enforcement''' - Upholding order in Infinity City is a difficult endeavor. To make sure that the city operates smoothly and that major events occur without a hitch, the city has created two factions of law enforcement: Con Security (AKA ConSec) and the Enforcers.

	ConSec is mostly made up of paid volunteers who mostly act as the eyes on the street for the Enforcers. ConSec operatives have some authority, but since they aren't trained they also aren't armed. And for this reason they are relegated to civil protection. There is some wiggle room regarding what ConSec is allowed to do when it comes to applying the law and punishing offenders, but mostly they are required to observer and report. For this reason, most carry some form of camera and walkie talkie to keep in touch with the Enforcers. For instance, ConSec may apprehend a thief, but it is up to the Enforcers to detain and decide punishment.

For instance, ConSec may apprehend a thief, but it is up to the Enforcers to detain and decide punishment.

	The Enforcers are akin to real Police Officers. They have full authority to enforce the laws of the city, which also give them the right to detain and deport offenders from the Con. To become an Enforcer requires some extensive training under an actual security and law enforcement specialist, employed by the city and acting as a Captains for the various branches of the Infinity City Enforcers(ICE? Sure, why not?). Rumor has it that each one was picked not only because of their backgrounds in law enforcement and private security, but also because they are secretly fans themselves.

	'''The InfiniCon Registration Network''' - With as many people as there are in Infinity City all clamoring the attend the various events and panels, one of the first things the city was required to do was establish a more stream-lined and efficient registration system. Rather than rely on badges and registration lines, they built the InfiniCon Registration Network, which catalogs and stores basic info on all registered attendees and gives them an ID card which keeps track of various bits of information stored on a RFID chip inside the card.

	'''Neckbeard Alley''' - Traditional gaming and Fantasy District. This district has a certain rustic charm to it, with many of the buildings being fashioned after old wooden taverns or stone castles. If there's one thing this place has an abundance of, it's taverns to gather at. In addition, they have numerous bookstores which carry both literature and rulebooks. Despite the old-world aesthetic, though, the gamers of this district couldn't survive without fast food, so there are a variety of restaurants disguised amongst the fake thatched roof cottages that will deliver pizza or Chinese food.

	'''Industrial District''' - Further from the city lies the Industrial Zone, where the power plant, the water treatment center, the Recyclery where trash is sorted and re-purposed, and the shipping and storage warehouses where all of the incoming shipments arrive. Due to safety regulations and being further from the city, costuming and unusual behavior are less common in this District, though not completely absent. For the benefit of the bordering LARP fields, the city has erected a wide variety of pre-abandoned and faux-dilapidated buildings and factories dotting the outskirts of the district.

	*'''Delusions and Overreactions''' - There is a semi-supernatural phenomenon in Infinity City that allows playing pretend and getting into character to have some serious impact on its citizens. As a person drifts further into their delusion, it becomes harder for them to not react to roleplay and pretend as if it were reality. This becomes a bigger problem when the intense delusions of one person can start to drag others in, forcing everyone in the area into their fantasy, crossover hallucination where nerf darts are deadly bullets and the guy in the cardboard armor becomes a fearsome trained warrior. From an outsider's perspective, it's hilarious to watch, but it can be quite frustrating for Con Security when they have to waste time convincing kids that they aren't actually dead after some fight with another cosplayer. This is meant to be an alternate take on the immersion idea, still allowing for epic battles, but without the actual super powers and only a hint of psychic shenanigans.		*'''Delusions and Overreactions''' - There is a semi-supernatural phenomenon in Infinity City that allows playing pretend and getting into character to have some serious impact on its citizens.
