Twilight City - Schools, Locations, Residential areas
 |
The main University campus in Twilight City is located in the very middle of downtown, making it one of the most defining marks in the area. The complex is large enough to host a nearly every class and specialty that students would need. Classes run all weekdays and have night classes running on weekends for the busy or working student. Because of the high demand at the University and busy schedules of everyone, dormitories are available to the students for easier access to and from school. |

Being the only High School in the city, HOLLOW BASTION HIGH is quite busy. Students finish their high school years in a richly equipped school that even has a courtyard sitting in the center that has recently been nicknamed "The Radiant Garden" by the school populace. Students attending this school will spend three years here, attending grades ten to twelve only. This school has no dormitories available. |

IVALICE JUNIOR HIGH is one of the smaller schools in the city, functioning in a old building that has been used as a school house for seemingly hundreds of years.

This school has no dormitories available. |

The elementary school is actually quite large for a school educating the youngest students in the city. The building is a work of modern art with many glass windows. The playground for the students is one of the best in town. Students start their school years here and attend grades Kindergarten to grade six. This school has no dormitories available. |

The theatre can be considered a educational building on its own, even though it is located on the BALAMB UNIVERSITY campus and functions as another branch of the school. This theatre is large enough to host a variety of arts classes ranging from dance lessons to music and various forms of acting classes. It can be categorized as a theatre school on its own, and is known to have shows playing in the main auditorium nearly every Friday. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The GOLD SAUCER SHOPPING MALL is a complex large enough to span various blocks and streets. It is known for having every single brand name store that one can think of and included many individually owned stores as well. There lies a large water fountain in the center of the mall. The building is also equipped with hotels. Always bustling with people and full of new product every single day, it is open every day from 10AM-9PM. |

SPIRA STADIUM is the epitome of sports central. It includes a large football field as well as a hockey rink for the biggest events in the year. While each season runs the current sport, there is still time for school teams to come and train in the mighty stadium. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

This lovely hotel and resort is an escape from the city life and is the portal to a resort heaven.

LUNATIC PANDORA is the resident night club that is open every single night to the nocturnal types in the city. It’s located extremely close to the ELEPHANT GRAVEYARD, although this club is said to be one of the best in the entire world for its high class and talented staff. There are rumours a darker type of organization uses the club as a headquarters. The doors are open from 8PM-4AM. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The large, spidery maze of back alleys and side streets is commonly known to locals as the ELEPHANT GRAVEYARD. This area is largely populated by the homeless, drug dealers, gang members and other various hoodlums.

THE TIKI ROOM, a combination coffee/art house, is a typical hangout for University students.

NEVERLAND PARK, located in the heart of Twilight City, is home to over 80 different kinds of trees and plants. Almost fifty years ago, the Park's Conservatory Society introduced a man-made lake into the middle of the park.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Set near the outskirts of the city for the room. This archery range was build for the enjoyment and practice of the citizens and both memberships and guest passes are available. The range is actually simple and fairly small. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
This residential area is classified as a middle class area that features medium sized homes and community parks. The houses are usually modeled after old European homes, much of which are probably just as aged. Living is simple and easy here much like living in a little town. This area is suited for families or for the elderly. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
The WINHILL district is classified as the beautifully tucked away suburban area. The houses are a bit more pricey but larger, newer and particularly beautiful and modern. This area is suited for families or for people who have the money to buy a home here. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
SHERWOOD is yet another suburban district with homes that are large as they are modern and chic. Surrounded by man-made gardens and lakes, this area is said to be a little more pleasant to the green-thumb. Gardens or not, you’ll be paying a pretty price to be living in this area. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
This apartment complex is one of the smaller ones, located closer to downtown for easy travel. As an alternative to students, these apartments are only one or two bedroom, leaving them not very suitable for families or groups of more than three. It may be cramped, but this apartment is usually full of good people and a hominess fills its halls. One Bedroom - Two Bedrooms |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
Blowing the RABANASTRE APARTMENT COMPLEX out of the water, LEMURES APARTMENT COMPLEX is a high rise building also located a stone throw from downtown. It’s bigger, highly expensive, but can hold up to four bedrooms per apartment. The building overlooks the downtown core leaving a beautiful nightlight sight for those who love a view. Three Bedrooms - Four Bedrooms |

For children that have the tale of having no parents, most of them come to find a home at KRAMER ORPHANAGE. Although it is small and the building old, it is full of love and nurturing until the children can ether become emancipated or find a new home with loving parents. Unfortunately, the building is located a few blocks from the slums but that doesn’t keep it from being dragged down. Children up to the age of sixteen can be housed here. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
The slums are full of old and cracked houses that aren’t very much a sight to see. This area doesn’t have any parks or playgrounds as well, leaving it with little pleasantries at all. Although, it is cheap to live here and isn’t so bad once you get used to the cockroaches. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
POWHATAN is a large, rural area just outside of the city, where most of the local produce is grown and harvested. It is littered with tiny cottages and small homes leaving it cosy and warm. Being on the outskirts of the city leaves it hard to travel but easy to live away from the city noise. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
CHINA TOWN is a small district that is decorated in old and new oriental influenced architecture. It has been here as long as the city has seemingly been standing, leaving it homey and old. It looks like a page out of a Chinese fairy tale. Better yet, the houses range to all sizes and are decently priced! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
