South

The southern part of the city has a chic family-oriented sort of charm to it. Here, small locally owned shops run rampant, neighbors often know each other by name, and the monthly socials are an event not to be missed. In the South, children can often be seen safely playing in the park or on sidewalks and in the weekends, families often take to the beach to enjoy the warm waters surrounding the city.

Ascension Center of Equitation

The Ascension Center of Equitation is the epicenter of the Dark Hunter Cavalry Unit. Originally a high-class facility for show-jumping, Ascension now caters entirely to the Cavalry Unit. Here the Dark Hunters learn how to ride and fight upon the backs of horses - many of which are Were's themselves.

Hyde Park

Hyde Place takes up a large part of the Southern side of the city and includes a large playground, several fountains, and a small garden. The park is open from five in the morning till midnight though many shady characters may visit this place while it's technically "closed". The park has also been a venue for several concerts and hosts many holiday-related events. Under a full moon, witches are often seen here for the sacred ground beneath the iconic Weeping Beech.

Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium

The Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium (PDZA) is an award-winning combined zoo and aquarium located within the Southern Part of Sacrosanct. Situated on 92 acres in Sacrosanct's Hyde Park, the zoo and aquarium are home to over 9,000 specimens representing 367 animal species. Point Defiance is also widely known for its conversation efforts regarding the breed and release program of Red Wolves.

The Outskirts

Beyond the city limits and over the bridge lies the deep, dark, and almost impenetrable forest. Often seen as a way to guard this magical city against the world that surrounds it, many are entirely ignorant of the evil that may creep between those tree trunks. Many were-creatures use the forest for the transformations of their newest members and some even take to hunting here. It isn't particularly peculiar for people to go missing within this forest but once you get through, the rest of the world awaits.

The University of Sacrosanct

The University of Sacrosanct offers some of the top programs in the nation with its outstanding campus and specialized faculty. The University places a high focus both upon educating future generations but also on research to help revolutionize the world. The University welcomes the talent of students across the world to enroll and unlock their unlimited potential. With applications from across the nation, classes fill up quickly.

Raylin Chike


Ray hardly found herself out at night wandering the sandy shores, the girl smart enough to know walking alone... at night in this city was a dangerous game to play. Yet, she couldn't sleep, her body restless from work, the woman unable to unwind properly tonight. Creeping through the sand, her pink hair unbound and untamable in the wind, she pauses ever so briefly at the dock where she had met Barney, hoping the dog would be out tonight. There was no luck and Raylin didn't really think Brennan would leave his dog out overnight, he seemed like a good dog owner at the very least. Still, Ray can't help but release a sigh as she folds her arms over her chest to gather warmth, a fairly strong wind whipping off the ocean and pummeling her.

Good lord, what was she doing? It was freezing and still winter, she was going to be too tired to get up in the morning to catch a few waves before work. Sighing, she's nearly ready to turn back around and head home when she catches a shadow on the sand. Holding her breath, she can feel her heart rate pick up slightly, only realizing it was a woman sitting there on the sandy shore, her cheek resting against her knee. Raylin pauses for a moment, her brown eyes traveling her lithe form only to see she had no shoes on. It was far too cold for such a thing! Making up her mind, Ray moves towards the woman, "Excuse me!" She shouts over the wind, gaining the attention of the dark haired woman, "Are you okay?" She calls again before finally reaching the sitting stranger.

Pausing, Raylin folds her arms over her chest once more, the girl hardly able to offer the woman any warmth, Ray hardly prepared for such a cold night either. It's only when she looks down does she see heels abandoned next to her, the girl giving a small sigh, "Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you needed help," she laughs lightly to ease her embarrassment, "You don't often see people hanging out on the beach at night. Speaking of which, I've never seen you here before," Raylin states, the girl hardly moving from her spot as she looks down at the woman, a grin touching her features. And it was true, Raylin frequented the beach so much, she knew almost everyone that came here, from the locals to the tourists, to new faces around the city. "I'm Raylin," she finally introduces herself, extending a hand,

"Don't mind me, I was out for a stroll and clearly you don't need help," she laughs again, "Are you new here?" Leave it to Raylin to strike up a conversation with a stranger in the middle of the night, not that the girl was naive, she was merely too friendly for her own good.
