Arena modifier—Isolation

All external modifiers on visiting players are suppressed. You arrive at the Terminal stripped bare.

See all arena modifiers for cross-comparison.

The arena—lore

The Last Terminal sits at the end of the Trans-Siberian Railway. Literally—the building is the final station, or was, before The Almighty Ice converted it. Trains still arrive. They stop at the platform outside, passengers disembark, and some of them come to watch Hockay. The journey to Vladivostok is long, from anywhere, and by the time visiting teams arrive they are already diminished. The Isolation modifier strips away all external effects. Player modifiers earned in other arenas, in other games, in The Sixth—none of it works here. You arrive at The Terminal with nothing but your base stats. Le Council considers this the purest form of Hockay. The Vodkas consider it home advantage.

The arena—building

A grand railway terminal, imperial in scale, converted with minimal alteration. The exterior is the original station facade—cream-colored stucco with green copper detailing, arched windows, and a clock tower that runs seven hours ahead of Moscow (correctly, for Vladivostok). The main hall is the arena. The vaulted glass ceiling of the train shed spans the full width of the rink, letting in grey Vladivostok light. The platforms along both sides serve as standing-room sections. The seating is a mix of original wooden station benches and bolted-in arena chairs. Departure boards still hang from the ceiling, now displaying period times and scores. The PA system announces goals in the same cadence as train departures. Arriving at The Last Terminal feels like arriving at the end of something. Leaving feels like you left something behind.
