The Town is the center of the Township, a mysterious area where all who enter become trapped inside, unable to escape. In addition to trapping unfortunate travelers within its bounds, the area is home to mysterious Creatures that emerge after nightfall and kill any humans they come across. Most people live in the Town itself, and are led by Sheriff Boyd Stevens, and have developed strict rules and protocols to ensure that no one gets hurt or killed. Some people choose to live in Colony House, the mansion up the road which is home to a commune led by Donna Raines.
Layout[]
The Fallen Tree Road (which signifies the entrance of the Township) leads straight into the center of Town. Continuing to drive straight on the road simply leads the driver back into the center of Town. On that main street are several homes, as well as the Diner where the community eats breakfast together and the Barn where their livestock, including goats and chickens. Across the street from the Diner is sign for a motel that either no longer exists or was simply never built and an empty pool with an overturned car in it. A number of other buildings have been repurposed from their original use, such as the post office, which is now the Sheriff's Office, the gas station that is home to the Town's Bar, and a small stone building that has been made into a church, with a small graveyard next to it. The Town's school, which is located off the main road, has been repurposed into the Clinic.
Colony House is located on the road up the hill from Town. Surrounding the Town and Colony House is a vast forest which is home to many more mysteries and dangers. Directly underneath the Town are the Tunnels, a vast cave system where the Creatures sleep during the day.
