Beast's Grin Peninsula


Just to the west of Ethereal Eclipse stretches a pair of thin peninsulas dotted with shallow pools from the ocean. The peninsulas are greatly reduced in size during high tide, but during the low tide it's a place prosperous in crustacean and other forms of ocean life. Rocks dot each of the tide pools, sometimes trapping ample meals from escaping back out to sea with the low tide. In the night, the tidepools turn into dangerous obstacles over which one could easily twist their ankle which, along with the shape of the peninsulas, helped to earn its eerie name. Near the Ethereal Eclipse territory, grassy knolls break the coastal area from the inland forest.



Clements Park


Clements Park was a planned construction in a rather desolate area of Nova Scotia. Far from the population centers of Halifax and other larger towns, the park was intended to be an amusement area and zoo. It began construction in early 1988 amid heavy controversy, and it remained unfinished upon the demise of humanity. Now, the skeletal structures of half-finished amusement rides stand between containment areas for the animals. All of Clements Park stands in haphazard disarray, though the introduction of wild plants for the planned preserve now allows for an interesting variety of flora within Clements Park.



Wolf's Peak


The low and rolling hills of the southern mountains begin in the Trenches and wrap around the Serena Reserve lowlands. Along the coast of the Beast's Grin Peninsula, the mountains again rise from the earth, though here they are rounded, low-leaning peaks. The sharpest of these hills is Wolf's Peak, a menacing, long ridge of land. Wolf's Peak is an extremely large drumlin, elongated hills shaped by glaciers. The highest elevations of the peak are thickly forested, with a clear treeline providing the perimeter of Ethereal Eclipse. The downward slopes and beaches below the ridge are rocky and dotted with tidal pools, shaped by the strong tides in the Bay of Fundy.



Des Rêveurs


Des Rêveurs was a large luxury cruise liner at one time during humanity's reign over the earth. After one particularly bruising and battering hurricane, the ship's owners beached it and reopened the former liner as a tour stop. The cruiseliner was stationed near a small cove, the interior kept in pristine condition for the tourists. From the outside it looks like any other old fading piece of history -- rust dots the exterior, chewing through the once-magnificent coat of white paint. Within the ship's hull, however, there still exists something magical and breathtaking, despite the wear apparent on the wonderful world of Des Rêveurs: The Dreamer.
