OLD RAVENSWOOD

The skeleton of what used to be, Old Ravenswood is a smaller town that was formed well before Blackwater developed. It is from the ashes of Ravenswood that Blackwater was able to form and to this day, no one fully knows what caused the now abandoned little town to fall apart. An eerie silence has taken over the once lively town, the only interruption of the quiet being that of the abundant wildlife that have claimed the area as their own.

Front porches lay barren, save the occasional porch swing still intact, the rusted chains squeaking ever so softly in the wind. What was once most likely a welcoming sight has been replaced by a sense of unease. Paint has started to crumble from the walls being replaced by rogue plants and vines worming their way up the inside of infrastructures, threatening to swallow them whole. Roofs have fallen in from lack of maintenance and care, the road into the town torn to pieces by the elements, nature reclaiming the land. Grass and weeds fill the labyrinth of cracks that continue to creep their way through the broken roadways and sidewalks.

A forlorn view from the outside, the creatures surrounding the outskirts of Blackwater inhabit the parts that are livable, turning the barren town into their own personal playground.

MURKWOOD MEADOWS

An open expanse bordered by the Halivar Mountain range and a thick forest of pines, Murkwood Meadows is a neutral ground for the werewolves of the region. With rolling hills, flowers and plenty of space to run, it's a safe haven for those that want to get away from the chaos of life for a little bit.

Like most territories that surround Blackwater, just be sure to be aware of your surroundings. You never know who might be lurking.

CRESCENT FORK RIVER

A sometimes unforgiving force of nature, the crescent twists and flows its way through the Halivar Mountain range, eventually feeding into Cerulean Falls. The river serves as a connection between numerous prominent landmarks throughout the wild outskirts of Blackwater. Considered neutral territory, you never know what creatures you might find lurking around along the banks, or hiding themselves away within the rocky terrain along the waters edge. north umpqua river, oregon

LAKE CHARON

Charon; ferryman of the dead.

Lake Charon sits high up in the Halivar Mountains, a good distance away from any trails that a typical hiking excursion might end up wandering into. The mountains stand silently, creating a wall of protection around the lake, and insuring that any unwelcome visitors have to cross perilous terrain to reach the shores of the lake itself.

At around 6 miles across at it's longest, and almost 2000 feet deep, there is more than enough room for mystery within the icy depths of this unique natural formation.

The island off the western shore houses an active volcano surrounded by an area of dense forest before it opens up to the shoreline. As the legend goes, this volcano is said to be a portal to Hell, and the waters surrounding it are cursed to claim all who enter into it. A few that have dared to make the trek over the mountain range have returned telling stories of a group of people who live on the island, though no one believes it to be true. How could humans survive in such an extreme and unstable environment?

CERULEAN FALLS

Secluded from the rest of the mountain landscape, Cerulean Falls sets nestled back into the Halivar Mountains themselves. The falls have a magical appeal to them that most have a hard time trying to resist. The crystal clear water tumbles over the ancient rockface, warn smooth from centuries of nature taking its toll. A cerulean spring awaits the river above, the spout foaming into a lather at the base, creating a bubbling spray; a contrast to the calm waters of the spring further out towards the opposite shore. Fronds of vegetation wave gently under the surface as aquatic wildlife dart in and out. A cave mouth is concealed behind the curtain of rushing water, housing moss covered rocks within its jagged walls, the ominous feel of the darkened entrance reaching out toward its visitors.

If one isn’t familiar with the Halivar Mountain territory, it would be near impossible to find this little oasis. Treacherous terrain and dense trees surround the falls, making it a well hidden gem - and the species that live in the area like to keep that way. A traveler or two might wander in on accident, though if you’re this deep into the forest you should never assume that you are alone. The locals in this area keep a watchful eye, and have a tendency to be quite territorial.

WILDER GROVE

On the outskirts of Old Ravenswood, a once rich row of estate houses now sit empty and bare upon being abandoned all those years ago. These antiquated ruins are connected to the past, stories of what once was laced throughout every intricate detail, inside and out. Most have fallen to ruin, in a state of disrepair, but a select few still look as if someone has taken great care to restore the integrity of the home.

What most don't know is vampires have taken residence in these high end houses, some fixing them up while others prefer the shambles of what once was.

INDUSTRIAL PARK

A part of Old Ravenswood, the industrial park is what first brought life to the area. Now, all that's left are the shells of warehouses and factories that used to work tirelessly to bring jobs and people to Ravenswood. The aged environment is in shambles, the ruins of a once prosperous area. Roofs have collapsed in, rust has slowly eaten away at metal sidings, the structural integrity of these once solid buildings now questionable at best.

Now a place for naïve souls to investigate once darkness settles, the rumors of ghosts and hauntings being too enticing for the morbid minded to stay away. Over time it has become a supernatural hunting ground, though humans are not the ones doing the hunting.
