October 11, 2024 Something is happening in the Scorched Wilds. There is a battle raging between a familiar force and an unfamiliar one. What will you do? Help or hinder?

October 1, 2024 Spooky things are happening as the afterlife start walking among the living once again.

September 30, 2024 Louve Dieudonné manages to keep Wolfbron Bluffs in the family. What will happen between the Bluffs and the otherwise peaceful pride of Lorien Plains?

September 20, 2024 Ilarion Rurik challenges for Wolfbron, will the Dieudonné lead pride fall?

September 8, 2024War broke out once again in the Lagoon when a wedding had some uninvited guest arrive. The war results in the most death matches the island has seen at once. The Summit was challenged by Brighid with Talisa answering the call. After many years of the Summit have the same two leaders, the Summit changes hands. What will this mean for the balance of Amaryllis? A witch hunt has started by Luther and Miaran which seems to be turning things on an island that is full of magic.

August 25, 2024 War broke out in the challenge for the Lagoon after Cassius tries to take the Lagoon from Isla. The Cove remains with Miaran. The leadership of the Mire switches from Sigrún hold to Rike when Luther comes back to take his birthland back. Elephants push into the Rainforest and push out the lions there. Soon after Lucifer lays claim to his birthland and takes over the Rainforest.

June 27, 2024 Conflict and tensions rise as prides come head-to-head with one another across Amaryllis - just as Pyrrha and Cassius take the leap to try and claim (or reclaim) their own thrones.

May 24, 2024 Rulers continue to shift, family strife ensues, and, per usual, tensions seems taunt and always lingering on the horizon.

April 24, 2024 Things are rocky within Amaryllis as the Dieudonne clash result in three deaths and forces a shift in the rulership of Firnen Rainforest. With Caladan Cove freshly overturned as well, what will the consequenecss of these events be?

March 30, 2024 The lull has ended as a long standing family, the Dieudonné, launch death matches against their own. The Plains sees a challenge from a new comer, Aphrodite, and the quite pride is pushed into the spotlight.

March 19, 2024 A momentary lull has overtaken the lands of Amaryllis as its inhabitants attempt to find their footing and rebuild after a string of challenges. How long it will last, however, nobody can be quite sure.

February 11, 2024 The Mire has fallen from the Stärke family and is now held by Luther Rike. The change has stirred but the fighting nature of those on the island. The Brook finds a new leader with Icefang and Isla takes over the Lagoon after a storm pushes out the old leader. Reti finds himself the leader of the Hollows after Alexander is hurt. The Oasis finds a new leader in Léonie who is soon tested by Harou.

January 8, 2024 The snow has finally begun to melt anew, which means that the world is slowly returning to the much-anticipated summer season. With the various holiday activities and the other jests put on by Nafasi also coming to a close, it is safe to say that winter is finally over.

December 5th, 2023 Nafasi had pulled a cruel trick and has sent Amaryllis back into a renewed winter season! But it's not all bad, because the lands will also see a handful of holiday-themed events popping up as a result. To make things more interesting, a wayward trio of travlers have also arrived and are facilitating a mass competition between the prides, bands, and rogues -- formally dubbed the Amaryllis Winter Games.

December 2nd, 2023 The spring air brings forth a number of pride challenges. A familiar challenger for the Cove and the Oasis arrive to try to earn what they want. The new leader of the Lagoon is tested in battle as well. What changes will come from the challenges? Who will remain standing and who will find their world turned upside down?

November 27th, 2023 In a challenge between mother and daughter, the leadership of Wolfbron Bluff changes for the first time in 5 IC years.

November 22nd, 2023 Two death matches, one resurrection, and an almost-war later, the lands find themselves in a constant state of turmoil and calamity. Families have been torn apart and endless blood has been spilt; but how is it all going to end?

November 3rd, 2023 The lands stir violently as a death match rages on between Aeistrios Saxe and Morrigan Greyflood. Observers spill into the pit in droves to witness what will no doubt be a historic battle -- and it is clear that this familial fued is far from over, no matter who wins and who dies.

October 12th, 2023 With winter comes the surge of more pride challenges; Ludivine challenges Ryker for Firnen Rainforest and is victorious in her endeavors, meanwhile an outcropping of maims breaks out on the sidelines. In a shocking turn of events Luther returns to challenge Bruno for Ecrosia Mire, will the former heir prove victorious or has Bruno got what it takes to keep his brother's ambitions at bay? This has undoubtedly shaken things up as Bruno declares war against Andal Oasis and Allies in the process!

Bodies of water did not disturb him, unless it was something vast like the ocean. If he couldn't see the bottom it made him hesitant to go into it, but the river was something he was use to. The Satoshi male approached the bank of the water looking at his reflection watching the shimmering of fish beneath the surface. He wondered what the biggest fish was in this water..

+5 Tell a lie without getting caught

A crocodile. No, Astrid didn't know what the biggest fish in the River was nor did she want to find out. Granted, she would always try to eat something before it ate her but why would the Norse woman go looking for something when it wasn't causing her any trouble? For now, the woman was just curious on getting her own fish or finding out more information on the new comers that were slowly invading her homeland. So, with that being thought about, Astrid came to the river on the opposite side of the male and a bit further down - though she could still be noticed by him - so she was unaware of him nearby on the other bank and slithered into the water with minimal movement so that she wasn't causing to much motion and scare away anything that wanted to test the water's around her.

+ 5 – practise disguising yourself

Quietly he watched the shimmering fish wondering if anything big lived in the water when movement out of the corner of his eye caught his attention. Lifting his head slowly he saw her wade into the water and stared, well wasn't that daring of her. Or maybe she knew something he didnt? After a moment of silence watching her he moved to come closer but stopped a bit away. ”What are you doing?” he asked in a deep rumble of curiousty.

Movement caught her eye and it caused her to look up to see what it was, causing her muscles to move ever so slightly and the water to ripple. It caused a grumble to come from her throat as she would stare at him with teal eyes. I'm trying to catch a Draugr. Would he understand what that was? Could she possibly get away with making him think it was a fish when in reality it wasn't?

Oh she seemed grumpy, did he disturb something? Then she spoke and he felt his ears push forward straining to catch what she had said. ”a .. a dragon?” he asked confused moving to lay down on the shore of the river crossing his arms looking at her. Dragons didn’t exist as far as he was aware, so what was she on about? He looked cautiously to the water, maybe she did know something he didn’t…

A dragon?! It nearly caused her to laugh out loud but she bit her tongue as she would glance over to him with a small twist of her lips. No, Draugr did not meant dragon it was the calling of an undead creature but let's go with a dragon. A nod came from the woman as she would turn her attention right back to the water. Yes, a water Draugr. She would continue with her little lie since it was very clear that this man did not know her native tongue and thought they were fishing for dragon's.

Dravite watched her carefully, then he snorted taking a few steps back from the waters edge. ”The only dragon i know of is just a huge freakin crocodile... so unless you are friends with those...” he said cautiously, then looked at the surface of the water as if expecting it to come out of the water suddenly. ”How does one summon one anyway?” he challenged carefully. Trying to make her prove her story.

Well she knew what those things were and she was not friends with them but the boy was proving to be interesting and it caused her to keep telling her little lie. Granted, she didn't expect him to ask how to summon one and Astrid would glance towards the water briefly before looking back at @Dravite. Very tricky. Sometimes it take's a sacrifice. Sometimes it was nothing at all and they just showed up. But Astrid had never seen one, only heard of them in stories when she was just a cub and mother or father wanted her to stay put and not leave the den while they were out. She had dreamed of the day she'd be able to see one and kill it. Making her parents proud.
