NPC Spotlight (Ian)-Ian comes from a family of merchants whose selling gimmick is having a talking cat in their store. He runs the Barton Boutique with his cat Rufus in Barton Town, which sells all kinds of basic clothes and costumes for your Avatar at the cheapest prices on Gaia. Though he may look like a ladies man, Ian is a very socially awkward guy and his friends describe him as "spastic" from time to time.
Featured Place ("The Crater" Barton Cliffs)-Also known as the Barton Cliffs, the Crater is the site of the famous duel between Ian and Gino that resulted in the cataclysmic events of April 1st, 2006 -- where Labtech X injected Gino with an unknown substance. This substance caused Gino's mutated cells to split, releasing an enormous amount of energy upon impact with the ocean. The resulting explosion left a massive crater that carved itself into the cliffside.
Featured place (Isle of Gambino) -The Isle of Gambino was once known as the Isle de Nativ, a bustling casino/resort run by the local native islanders. On one fateful day, Johnny K. Gambino came to the island with one gold coin in his pocket. He entered the casino and left hours later owning the entire Island. This set his legacy in stone being known as the "Most Powerful Man in GAIA" -- he then had the island renamed after his family name.
