Phoenix, Arizona
From Circle Of The Crone
The metropolitan area of Phoenix and the surrounding northern towns are currently united into an Imperial Domain that consists of the two halves of the Valley of the Sun (i.e. the Eastern and Western halves of the Greater Phoenix Metro area) and Sedona (and thus effectively all points north of Phoenix excepting Flagstaff.)
Sedona is the most favorable to the Acolytes as it has traditionally been the sole property of the Acolytes and has been governed as a retreat/safe haven for them. However, due to the investment the Covenant has in the city, those who break the masquerade or otherwise grossly disrupt the tranquility of Sedona and the surrounding area are advised to pass on through.
The Eastern Valley is also very favorable to the Acolytes who stand just behind the Invictus as the most powerful and influential covenant. The history of neutrality by the Acolytes within the Eastern court means as long as an Acolyte isn't a violation of the Masquerade, does not publically perform Cruac rituals, or otherwise draw unfavorable attention to themselves they are more than welcome.
The Western Valley is currently neutral towards the Acolytes. They have had issues with foolish Acolytes in the past, do not look favorably upon public practicing of Cruac, and a small faction is less than thrilled with being under the Praxis of an Acolyte and so may socially take it out on visiting Acolytes.
