I'd say what you want is Region Module that creates and manipulates the entities. I've done this before: http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=kJNDcurLP1w&feature=fvst (and hopefully will be doing a lot more of it, because that's fun)
Unfortunately no one here has had time to write any documentation about how to do this. I wrote a brief tutorial about regions modules a few months ago (http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Region_Modules), but one month later, the interface of region modules changed (http:// opensimulator.org/wiki/New_Region_Modules), and I haven't had time to update the tutorial yet. So for the time being, you're on your own to put the pieces together.
