Do You Know Who I Am?
“…And the world will not discourage you from operating on your default settings, because the world of men and money and power hums along quite nicely on the fuel of fear and contempt and frustration and craving and the worship of self.”
– David Foster Wallace
In Los Angeles, what you can do is often distinctly secondary to who you know. It is a city, that perhaps more than any other in America, thrives on name dropping, influence peddling and the ‘art of the deal’. Those who reign supreme in other municipalities, such as police chiefs and city officials, often find themselves far from the most important person in the room. True power is wielded by some of the richest and famous people in the world, including superstar athletes, big tech innovators, billionaire CEOs, mega celebrities and the powerhouse agents and executive assistants who work for all of them – all of whom live and party in Los Angeles, regardless of where they made their name or fortune.
The stratospheric elite of both hemispheres find shelter in palatial, gated residences tucked securely away in the Santa Monica Mountains which form the broad arc of the Westside’s ‘Unreal Estate’. Here is where you’ll find such famous addresses as the Hollywood Hills, Mulholland Drive, Old Bel Air, Brentwood and the BHPO. Any single neighborhood in Los Angeles contains more millionaires and industry leaders than entire cities elsewhere.
In order to capture the true spirit of of Los Angeles, we have put significant effort into the Influence system here at Liberation MUSH – with a great emphasis on making the wielding of power a kinetic and intuitive experience. Every character on Liberation MUSH is an agent of influence in some small way – and some are titans.
