Geography/Description

Quiet and nice town. It is somewhat distant from other populous settlements of The City. The town is decently urbanized, but a lot of constructions still stay unfinished.<ref name="2.7 e1">"It was a nice slice of city, with a view of the water, tall buildings, shiny, modern, with nice, large houses, but it was only halfway erected. There were cars in driveways, but there wasn’t much life." - Excerpt from Flare 2.7</ref>

It is located on a peninsula which is the reason why it is called point.<ref name="4.5 e1">“What brings you here?” Prancer asked.

"Passing through,” Houndstooth said.

“To where? This is a peninsula. It’s why Hollow Point is a point.” - Excerpt from Shade 4.5</ref>

Points of Interest

Several points are done up with graffiti to show that it has been forcibly renamed Hollow Point.<ref name="2.7 e2">A sign was erected by one construction site. It was covered in graffiti. ‘Cedar Point Apartments’ was written at the top, but ‘Cedar’ had been covered over in paint, and ‘Hollow’ had been written in its place.

Cute, and from some cursory investigation, the rebranding had been performed elsewhere, throughout the district. Graffiti and other signs of anger were clear as day, much of it vile and senseless. - Excerpt from Flare 2.7</ref>

Villainous Headquarters

The stone clock tower is technically only the headquarters for people in Prancer's faction.<ref>The building was Prancer’s headquarters. A stone building with a clocktower on the top. - Shadow 5.3</ref>

Nail Salon

Where Colt's parents and sister live and work.

History

Background

Settled after Gold Morning along with the rest of the North American population. Residents were drawn from the entire refugee population, from all over the former world.

Early-Ward

Initially, Cedar Point was being built by a number of construction workers under the impression, accurate or otherwise, that they would earn first right to purchase the homes they were building. When word went around that this was not the case, a strike ensued. A Broken Trigger made an already bad situation worse, leading to many deaths.

The strike and broken trigger event put a sudden stop to town development.<ref name="2.7 e1" /> Afterwards, Prancer saw an opportunity to settle in a territory of his own, for Velvet's sake, and he set about recruited unaffiliated villains to take control of the settlement.<ref>Interlude 1 II</ref>

Roughly a month on a it had become a site for drugs like weed and gun running along with other criminal activity.<ref>Shadow 5.5</ref> It also began being called "Hollow Point" instead, with graffiti to reinforce it.

Almost immediately after the villains infested the territory, the yet-unnamed team Breakthrough set about putting pressure on them. They coordinated with other hero teams and aimed to carefully build pressure against Hollow Point.

This pressure and tension continued to build with the help of various hero teams, despite some difficulties. Ultimately, things boiled over when the villains ruling over Hollow Point enacted their plan against The Fallen, as part of their bargain with Cradle and The Mall Cluster to kill Rain O'Fire Frazier in the Mathers Compound Assault.

Post-Fallen fall

During the major fight against the Fallen, the villainous factions among Hollow Point fractured. The already existing tensions, loss of key figures like Beast of Burden, and the betrayal of the Speedrunners had sealed its fate.

A lot of survived villains retreated to the frontier.<ref>"a lot of the Hollow Point guys that didn’t get offed fell back to the border territories.” - Excerpt from Torch 7.6</ref> Despite that, the name Hollow Point stayed into main usage.<ref>It bummed me out a bit that Cedar Point’s name hadn’t survived, with all we’d done. - excerpt from Torch 7.8</ref>
