Overview

Cap Au Diable is one of the city zones in City of Villains. Dominated in the center by the skyscrapers and modern amenities of Aeon City, the sleepy hamlets north and south of Aeon City, Haven and New Haven, have to contend with the dangers of the Vagabond Hills to the northwest, the warehouses and paper mill of Devil's Coat Tails to the southwest, and the impressive Mount Diable to the northeast.

Two trainers are located here, Arbiter Orr by the Port Oakes ferry in Devil's Coat Tails, and Arbiter Howe in Aeon City; and like Port Oakes, two Brokers have moved in, Boris the Russian in the paper mill area of Devil's Coat Tails and Desdemona the Glint in Haven, under the ramp from Aeon City.
