Trebol

The first of the Blackjack Isles. Aside from the demon-made lakes, Trebol's lush and vibrant environment is entirely natural. Out of all the islands, Trebol is considered to have the most easygoing and laid-back population. Probably because it's the farthest from Pike.

Turnstile - The capital of Trebol. All administrative decisions regarding the island and its people are made here, by the island's Vice Arch Magni, Andre. Visitors interested in obtaining citizenship, or information on the politics of Trebol are encouraged by Andre himself to pay him a visit.

Sonata - Imagine if a city was built solely for the purpose of housing the world's largest and longest-running musical tournament, and you'll have Sonata. Those who live in sections (or keys) A-G are for the most part extremely competitive when it comes to music, and for good reason: the winners of the Tournament of Music receive enough fame and fortune to last for decades to come. The "R" section of Sonata is mainly for visitors and for those who appreciate competitive music, but have no interest in competing themselves.

Fundango - The world's largest amusement park, with dozens of uniquely-themed areas! Also, that music note river they have? It's heated. Good luck getting in, though. Fundango has a waiting list to purchase tickets, and the wait time is usually a couple months.

Slide - Also known as Beach city! Slide's beaches give Twin Luxuries' beaches a run for their money. Miles of pristine, white-and-black-sand coastline! You can also take a boat, balloon, or airship to any city in the Blackjack Isles.

Shufflebugg, Skip, Galop - Dance, dance, dance! These cities are great for scratching that dancing itch! They're all connected to each other by an intercity rollerway, and roller skates, inline skates, bicycles and other wheeled contraptions are available for rent should you wish to travel along it. They hold a dance competition among each other every year, and the city that wins gets to call itself the Dance Master until the next competition comes around.

Vinyl

The city of Vinyl (in the region of Turnstile) is the capital of Trebol and the home of Arch Magni Andre. It's well-known for being where you can pick up recorded copies of nearly anything that gets played on Trebol. It's also where the Blackjack Isles has most of its radio stations broadcast from. There's nothing quite like natural sound magic in the island's atmosphere to enhance it all, either!

Governor's tower - the big, rectangular, colorful building with the eye on top? That's Andre's tower. If you have (very) important business on Trebol, you're going to be heading here. If you just want to look at Andre, you're going to need to head to the pyramid-shaped building next door over.

Art Appreciation Pyramid - this is a huge art gallery that Andre had installed, both to make Vinyl a more interesting city, but also because he felt it would help others better appreciate him -- and why wouldn't everyone benefit from that? Appreciating art is good for the soul. ...and so is being the recipient of appreciation.

The Big Micro - If you've ever wanted to listen to weird sounds that come from... somewhere, this is the place to do it. Except it's not. No public visitors. It's rumored that they pick up weird messages from space, here. Or maybe it wasn't space? Aw gee, I forget. This place is pretty mysterious though, and tourists are always trying to get in.

That all too bustling for you? You can still live in the suburbs, which have sound-proofing plants and trees all over (the most common of which would be the quiet qlovers), making it a nice and peaceful place to live, even if only a mile or two out from the city itself. But if you find that too quiet, you can install little illuminotes, which both decorate your house and produce a pleasant humming tune that changes every half hour! And it can only be heard from within the radius of your house, too, so no annoying the neighbors. Convenient!

Foxtrot

Although Trebol is famed for entertainment and exciting nightlife, Foxtrot is a quiet city, and perfect for anyone wanting a backwater kind of place to live without sacrificing any luxuries of modern living. To the north of Foxtrot is the Bluegrass Wilderness, which is responsible for supplying food crops to all four of the Blackjack Islands. Farther north are the Bluegrass Mountains, one of the best hiking and camping locations in all of Hellside.

The city of Foxtrot is located in the Bluegrass region, which is aptly named for the bluegrass that grows all throughout it. Foxtrot is known for its calming atmosphere and its terraced hills, the latter of which are used to grow all kinds of crops to feed Trebol (as well as the rest of the Blackjack Isles!).

Triplet Pits - In the center of Foxtrot lie three demon-made pits used to grow the food that Foxtrot itself needs to survive. At the base are three tiny lakes that are used to water the plants as well as the population. In between the three pits is the Foxtrot Plaza, and every day farmers sell their excess goods there.

Score Hills - Something about the Sound magic in the environment ended up shaping the hills and mountains of the region like giant steps! The sloping stairs had to be added by Hellsiders, though, as did the holes in the hill walls - which are used for storing equipment and goods, of course. Every surface of the Score Hills is used to grow things, from herbs to grains to whatever is needed.

Lake Simile, located just north of the city. It may look like three lakes, but they're all connected underneath the earth. Further north, the Bluegrass Mountains are located. It's up north where you'll find all the exotic herbs and spices that are nearly impossible for farmers to grow, as they require specific concentrations of magic to be present!
