Gage Gage is the residence building where the Kahlites have made their den. Every werewolf claims their own room, but there is also a common area where most of the pack sleeps in wolf form. Fondly referred to as just 'The Bed,' this common room has been covered with mattresses, a few blankets and pillows. This place brings new meaning to the word 'dog pile.'
Place Vanier Place Vanier used to be a residence-complex for students living on campus. Once you might have found a cheerful place and people studying outside on the grass, but no more. Now it is a desolate little sanctuary for the people still living in Point Grey. It's a little run down, but for many it's still home.
Brock Hall This building hosted many student services, as well as classroom facilities and program departments. It's been converted into a social arena for the lonely souls living on campus to come together. Once a month, everyone pitches in and brings food for a giant potluck feast. The classrooms have been converted into food storage. Bi-monthly, teams of people go out to fill cars and trucks with non-perishable food to keep Point Grey's residents fed.

Pacific Spirit The Pacific Spirit is the meeting grounds for werewolves on the full moon. They gather here to avoid humans and hunt unseen. Humans avoid the thick foliage and damp atmosphere, wary of the howls they hear at night. Even walking down Beach Trail 6, the forest warns that this is dangerous territory.

Nitobe Memorial Garden Just North of Place Vanier is the Nitobe Memorial Garden. It's meant to emulate a traditional, Japanese garden. There's a ceremonial tea house still standing. This is a place of quiet reflection, and even now it has kept much of its serenity. In spring the cherry blossoms are in bloom and bathe the grass in pink petals. This place is still beautiful even after the end of the world.
Main Library The vast gardens facing the Library give it a castle-in-the-woods appearance. Inside, it is similar, but the atmosphere has changed. The dead silence makes the rows upon rows of books seem eerie. People think it's haunted. Every once in a while you might come across a toppled shelf, or a broken chair. People still come here to pick up a book, but they rarely stay inside.
Rose Garden On the North end of campus there's a garden that was once the ideal spot for a romantic date. Now the gardens have grown wild and unkempt. Some people still tend to it in an attempt to return the flowers to their past glory, but in the end this garden has become a bed of thorns. Even the roses themselves have taken on a darker tint.
The Pit The Pit is the campus pub, located in the Student Union Building. It offers a lunch menu and, like any self-respecting pub, alcoholic drinks. People come here to decompress or let loose. The Pub is run by an enigmatic girl named Reilly.
UBC Hospital The campus has its own hospital, both for med students and for the sick. It's completely abandoned now, but it's still a valuable resource to the Menders and Healers of the Kahlite Pack.
Vancouver The werewolves of Point Grey often make trips into Vancouver for stock or just the odd fun 'vacation' of sorts. Vancouver is a big city though, and still haunted by the infected individuals who remain. It's a dangerous place, so keep a careful watch.
