The Lupine Hunting Grounds are found as an extension of the Temple of Lupus amidst the Northreach Forest. They are open to all, but even the most skilled hunters fear the fierce beasts of prey that roam the Grounds.

A stronger cousin of the basilisks of the Aalen Forest stand sentinel in the forest as Snakes, a massive brown boar, and lions roam the grasslands. The desert is populated by a giant red scorpion, hyenas, and a hardy jarbo, each the greater kin of the creatures of the Mhojave Desert. The mighty centaurs roam the hills and protect their elder priestess and colts. The playful and rude wild-eyed primate swings from the vines and trees of the jungle, and the weretigress, dubbed "Penelope" by Lupus and His followers, prowls the jungle floor.

In the heart of the Lupine Hunting Grounds, the fell shewolf and her werewolf cubs make their den. In hidden caves there can be found a maze of webs, populated by the deadly silver spiders. Beyond these webs lie the massive varkha, gohlbrorn, and bainligor. One can find schools of piranha swimming in the lake, and large fire eels within the river. Sleek black werepanthers, panthers - some with child, and irate mountain goats also make their homes in the mountains.

The fiercest of beasts roam throughout their entire dominion, prowling across all of the Lupine Hunting Grounds. Fell werewolves can be found wherever they are wont to roam, appearing in every part of the Grounds. These werewolves are devoted hunters, granted the gift of lycanthropy by Lupus Himself.
