December 13, 2024 After winning the challenge for Wolfbron Bluffs and becoming the fourth Dieudonné to hold the crown, Lazare releases all the members and ends the longest standing pride's reign over the island. After seven years of the Bluffs being held by the same family, it now sits empty, waiting for the next chapter of it's leadership.

December 6, 2024 Death came to a witch hunter after she called for the death of Karsa, with Kvare answering it causing Miaran to fall. Lazare Dieudonné challenges Louve Dieudonné for Wolfbron Bluffs. Snow seems to be falling in the middle of the summer as strange animals show up and offer a tempting meal for those brave enough to jump in.

November 8, 2024 Scorpius has gone missing and in his place Zaahir steps up to take the throne of Andal Oasis. How this change of leadership will shake things up in the lands, only time will tell.

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!

(VB Hunt, attempt 2) Try, Try Again
      |   #1
4 years, level 2 ranger (+1 hunt roll), tier 4 pride
Second attempt for VB Pride Hunt #2



It had been a few days since the pride's failed attempt of hunting a Giraffe in the Grove and the pink Ranger needed to figure out a new strategy. After figuring out where things went wrong in the last hunt and had been scouting out a different area of the Grove, much more south than last time. As she got ready for the hunt, Raizel called out to her fellow pride mates who were open to trying another hunt before she finally crossed the borders from the Brook into the southern part of the Grove. Flicking her ears, she listened for other sounds before she got beyond the tree lines. Pink gaze looked around as she dipped down a bit into the long grass, trying to spot the potential target.

+10 Gather herbs for nursing or birthing
+10 Participate in a hunt using the rolled hunt system

her days are not particularly exciting, but dhaveira does her best to keep herself busy. she fills her den with bits and baubles, she wanders the brook to find all the cutest spots. and today, she leaves vermeda in a hunt for some extra herbs. something to sneak to the queen as she nurses her newest litter; something to help ease the pain of motherhood. she has quite a bit already when she catches another scent on the breeze — a lioness, like herself, and she’s curious enough to follow. finding the woman is easy, even in the shaded grove, and she chuffs softly. @Raizel is not a face she’s seen before but the little pink-pelted woman smells of the brook, and that makes her family of a sort. eira offers her a warm smile, settling in near here — leaving her gathered herbs in a pile off to the side. that could wait until after the hunt — because that’s what they were doing here, right? a hunt?

4 years | No Perks | Pride Tier 4

Her little babies were tucked safely within the den, and so when she had heard the call from none other than @Raizel over the lands once more she would head in the direction of a call. Hopefully this hunt would be more successful than the last one she'd attended that the pink huntress had called. One could only hope. A silent prayer to Maua for good fortune in this hunt, Cassandra would approach the pink lioness with a soft chuff, spotting Revna's wife alongside the pink huntress.

A nod would be given to the pair of them as she sat back to await the hunt to be targeted and her given a target to assist with. The Queen might have young ones in the den that relied on her, but she would still count herself as a part of the pride.

9 Years / No Perks

Aquila followed along not far behind Cassandra, arriving to the hunt with a soft grumbled greeting and glance around the few lions gathered there. The older male looked tired, the kind you hid away and hoped no one saw. The tired he was sick of feeling. The loss of his daughter still stung, each day hurting more than the last as her scent faded. He needed an escape, something to do to occupy his time for just a little bit. A hunt. The chance for chase and movement, but without the full risk of a fight. Brawny shoulders rolled back and forth a bit, he waited for others to move and he would follow.

five years, no perks

He was getting good at this hunting thing. Mostly anyway. Not that he had to be considering how many of them tended to show up for every hunt. He could be mediocre at best and still have the hunts go well because there were simply enough pride members around to pick up the slack. Not that he was willing to let himself be mediocre at something that was so important to the pride, and that he had so many eyes on him for.

So he came to join the group, sticking somewhat to the outskirts not because he was shy or still felt like he didn't know where he stood with them all but just because he still wasn't the best at tracking yet and didn't want to alert their quarry to their presence.

Spiritus is genderfluid. The pronouns used in each thread are the pronouns they feel at the time. Unless told otherwise, other lions are likely to consider them male. In OOC, "He/They" is perfectly fine!

nine years, sub-master ranger

Where there was a call for a hunt, Seraphiel went. He was well used to them now, and his sheer bulk came in handy when it came to bringing down whatever quarry they were going after that day.

The usual faces were there, along with some new ones. At least they had a lead hunter to take up the mantle. He had no idea where their previous one had gone, admittedly not paying much attention to his pride mates beyond his little family. Which he should probably change. Now wasn't the time for it, though, and so he waited for the hunt to begin.

eight years, no perks

Hunting wasn't her favorite pastime, but it was a necessary thing, and the more that came to help the easier it was. She benefited from being part of the pride and having access to the cache, so she ought to contribute to it in some way. Serving as a healer (both spiritual and otherwise) for the pride was all well and good, but there was more to being part of a pride than that. Besides, she was far from the only healer within the Brook, so her contribution was somewhat limited in that regard. It wasn't like it was a long trek for her to get to the gathering point either, considering she had been tending to her garden.

( 9 years & no bonuses )

Settling into her new pride the older lioness had been minding her own business when she heard the call for a hunt. Not really having anything to do she went towards the call. Keeping low she moved quickly and quietly though the forest until she spotted the others. She didn’t know them by name or anything but they all smelt like the brooks. So she moved closer giving each a polite dip of her chin before her orange eyes scanned the area around them. Searching for just what they were hunting. Ears perked as she waited for the pink one to give some sort of signal to mark the start of the hunt.

more and more lions come, each and every one smelling of the brook. mismatched eyes shoot to each of them in turn, offering a bright and gleaming smile. she might not know many of them, and certainly not by name, but they call the same place home and that makes them family after a fashion. and it is only with the power of that family that is able to bring down this creature -- large with grey-colored skin that's thicker than she expected. fortunately, they are successful today. she chirrups a happy little noise, delighting in their success, and eats her fill of the rhino once it is dead. before heading back to the brook she grabs the herbs she'd gathered before the hunt, and on her way home, her steps slow in order to grab even more.
