"Torchwood.
Outside the Government and beyond the police.
Tracking down alien life on earth and arming the human race against the future.
The Twenty First Century is when everything changes.
And you gotta be ready."
-- Captain Jack Harkness
Welcome to parallel Earth, and a million new possibilities. With Rose Tyler heading up this version of Earth’s Torchwood with the help of her original Captain Jack, she hopes to keep the planet as safe as she can. The Doctor of this universe has come around to the idea of having them there, although his own life is even more complicated than the Doctor that Rose had come to love…
With aliens and constant threats, there’s something else out on the horizon. Now it’s clear that parallel Earth isn’t just a second chance for Rose, it’s giving Second Chances to things much worse than she’s ever seen…
News: Welcome to Second Chances! This is a board set on parallel Earth, so feel free to add your own extra little spice to canon characters. Certain Time Lords are also available – ask the staff for details!
Setting: Mainly Cardiff, Spring 2010

Entrance Hall
Cleverly disguised as a messy tourist information office, this is the first place everyone sees when going to Torchwood. It's usually manned by Ianto and has a hidden doorway that leads right into the heart of the hub.

The Desks
Each member of the Torchwood team has his or her own desk, however the level of organisation varies greatly. Each desk has a computer and a set of drawers, with just enough space to be getting on with.

The Autopsy Room
There are a set of white stairs that lead down from the heart of the hub into this small autopsy room. It usually smells quite strongly of disinfectants and has instruments laid out in wait for the next victim... er... body.

The Cells
Of course none of the team really wants to keep aliens in tiny cells but sometimes it's for their own good - it's either that or run around outside waiting to be shot. These cells are small and dank and although they have cameras dotted about, a member of the team always goes down there to check in the evenings.

The Conference Room
Possibly one of the more important parts of the hub, this is where the team sit through long meetings to discuss alien threats. Or have lunch and socialise - it depends on the occasion!

Rose's Office
At the top of the Hub, Rose spends a lot of her free time here doing her own private research. Her door is open to everyone, though, as long as you knock first.

Cardiff Bay
This bay surrounds the Torchwood Three hub and has always been an important part of Cardiff's industry. However it was allowed to go downhill over the years and although it's on it's way back up, there are still a lot of empty buildings which make perfect homes for a lot of unusual dealings.

River Taff
Yes, you guessed it, this is where the nickname 'Taffy' comes from. Up in the hills the river is a mere trickle but the further down you go the stronger it becomes.

Cardiff Castle
Cardiff Castle is a major tourist attraction in the city and is situated in the heart of the city centre, near to the main shopping streets. Some pretty strange things have been rumoured to go on around here after dark, though most people just put it down to superstition.

Cardiff Metropolitan Cathedral
Oddly enough you don't have to be all that religious to be welcomed into the cathedral. This place is huge as you'd imagine and has some spectacular engineering holding it all together.

University of Cardiff
Lots of research in the supernatural amongst other subjects is done here. The good thing about this university is that they're not too bothered about the backgrounds of their students and take a pride in the fact they're very multi-cultural.

Fairwater Leisure Centre
Opened in 1983, it is owned and run by the city council. Located off Waterhall Road, it serves the people living in the north west of the city. The centre is easily reached by Cardiff Bus services and contains facilities for everything from swimming to badminton - provided of course that you have a gym card!

Bar, Pubs and Nightclubs
If you prefer a more upmarket night out, you might want to consider one of the various trendy wine bars or the local Starbucks. On the other hand, if you're more down to earth, perhaps the nearest pubs more your style. Then again, there are a lot of clubs to choose from...

Bute Park
This vast open space was formerly part of the castle grounds, extending northwards from the top of one of Cardiff's main shopping streets which also skirts the river Taff. It's popular with tourists and locals alike, with wonderful flower beds throughout.

Queen's Arcade
The arcade has two levels, and is unusual in that the levels are sloped, so that despite its two entrances being on the same level, the upper floor at one entrance is the ground floor at the other. A rather interesting design in which you will find most everything that you need... and probably quite a few things that you don't too!

Home Sweet Home
Everyone has a place of their own, whether it's a rubbish little flat right in the middle of town or if it's a nice house in the suburbs. Just remember not everyone can have a mansion - no matter how much they want one!
