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!

Summer
Summer is in full swing now, with clear skies, warm nights, and ample sunshine! As such, the deserts begin to grow dry, the shores remain a blissful escape, the north is spared with cooling winds, and humidity continues to rise in the jungle. Rain and storms are long forgotten troubles by now, which is both a virtue and a vice during the heat of the season.

faustine sunk low into the murky depths of the bog, allowed its watery surface to dirty her underside and stain the darkened flesh there even darker. she had armored herself with the mud of the bog, became one with its vegetation as rotten leaves and snapped twigs intertwined within unbrushed fur. her coat was more black than chartreuse, more fetid than the stench of the bluffs and whatever carcass she crawled out of. this land would be fun to hunt and it was that thought that made faustine crawl forth, past the vultures and the half-sunken bodies of weeks old bodies. the gnarled trees made way for her and the ground seemed to open for her, to the point where she could stop and place her full weight upon it.

NOTE: faustine is a cannibal and speaks in a heavily accented english. she may attack without warning and/or act creepy around your characters.

she recognizes the roar that faustine looses - and perhaps despite her better judgment, she casts a sly smirk at @Ludivine and pulls herself from where she's been lounging. a flick of her tail at @Gauthier and she's off, trotting towards the yearling. she has no interest in fighting her again, no interest in teaching a lesson. this? this is purely for her sadistic pleasure. emotional torment is just as delightful for the bitch as physical bloodletting. she arrives in the bog, sloshing through the muck and sour earth with a curl to her lip, though her eyes never waver from her target.

léontine lurches atop a nearby felled tree, clawing her way up to perch there. she says nothing to the yearling, merely hunches close to the lumber and waits for her instructions, an amused sort of twist to the corners of her dark lips.

The swamplands were much like a second home to her now, the first being the snowy expanse the Deity within her hailed from. As each day, she trained taut muscle beneath flesh. Today she'd opted for felling smaller trees in the Bog, using her front paws and putting all strength behind each shove. In between these sets, she took her time to carefully sharpen her claws. They left deep cuts upon tree bark and then she continued.

That went on for an hour or so until her body was screaming in protest. Then the voice of another beconing them to a hunt caught the Reborn's attention, and she followed it. There was one girl, of Wolfbron, so far. Her stench made her nose wrinkle with distaste. Perhaps that distracted her and she did not see a second woman lurking in the tree-tops.

IANTHE
1 Y | No Bonuses

Ashanti peppers must be plentiful this time of year, Ianthe has been able to gather all she needs and then some each time she prowls through the grove.
With a veritable bounty of birthing herbs stuffed in her pouch, the princess winds her way through the knotted tangle of tree roots, until her paws sink into cold, wet earth.

The bog isn’t too dissimilar from the mire, though the damp scent of decaying vegetation is much stronger here. Ianthe thinks about how to utilize the terrain in the hunt – she can move quickly in the muddy pockets of water, and she knows how to conceal herself under the shallow trees. On a rare occasion, she might be a benefit rather than a burden.

Unaware to a rather large part of their history in Amaryllis; Neculai joins into the hunt led by @Faustine without any hesitation. Coming back into the lands of Amaryllis, he had the dire need to enhance his skills and do better for the pride he joins, to better provide for those within.

He nods to those who may search out his gaze, but overall focuses in on his place in the hunt. His gaze trails over the marks in the ground, following them, studying them, much like the scents that swirled on the air. The thrill of hunting burns at his bones, and he is eager to get his taste.

Valeria moved quickly when she saw others beginning to gather. The bog was not a place she would typically chose to venture into on a typical day, but the opportunity to join the hunt was too good to resist. She was feeling good about the progress she was making, and liked the way it felt to be part of a successful hunt. More than that, she liked the idea of making her father proud the next time they hunted together with the pride. Would the difference in her skill and her confidence be noticeable? She hoped so. She didn’t need praise or a lot of attention, just to know that she was helping her family.

It was a sick joke that she had managed to wander back to this godforsaken smelly pit. Her distracted feet had led her once more to the bog. It was too late to turn back - the tarry fingers of the bog had already drawn sticky circles around her pale wrists before yanking her into a putrid embrace. With a sigh of defeat, Lune looked around squinting at the foliage. Maybe there would be something new she would find in the bog's murky depths now that she was looking for a second time.

Cautiously, Lune placed on paw in front of the other, trying to avoid dipping into the black waters as much as possible. She spotted some Angel's Trumpet off to the side, growing in the hollow of a felled tree. A poison - that was pretty much the extent of Lune's knowledge. She would have to collect some of it and test it out - but only when the perfect opportunity arose. Lune was careful to make her collection with her feet, careful not to let any of the leaves get too close to her face - lest she inhale any of them. After she had finished collecting, the girl looked around the bog. Thankfully, she was not in suspense long before she heard the call for a hunt.

Lune pushed her collection back in the base of the tree for safe keeping before taking off in the direction of the call. She was pleased to see that other were joining as well. This should be fun.

Thanks to an active pregnancy, her recovery postpartum had been physically easy. There was no denying the mental toll it all had taken on her... but for now, that could all be cast aside. After her last adventure to the bog, it had gathered more of her attention and drew her back like a moth to flame. She is drawn to the group as the scent of multiple lions hits her nose, and ultimately she takes the chance that it is like the last few times where people were gathering out of hunger. As the cleric approaches, it's easy to see that is exactly the case, and she even spots few familiar faces. With a curt bow of her head, she murmurs under her breath a soft blessing for them all as they once again gather to hunt. This time, however, she would need to bring back some of the spoils for her growing mouth to feed. " May Maua grant us success in our hunt today so that we may fill our bellies and provide for our families. " Her prayer is said aloud, a simple smile following suit on her inky lips as she stands by, waiting.

"You get that during a hunt?" the lioness would ask of @Mithril, traipsing up to his side with a friendly and confident beam; gesturing with her chin to the minor wound he wore. Poking up from between her toes was a sprouting branch of Neem; serrated leaves collected moments before from a nearby growth.

"Let me dress it for you, and you can dress mine?" her back leg flicked out vaguely to present the shallow scathe that ran down her right hock, also from a hunt. Mithril is dark and broody, but Aphid regards him with a keen interest, making no effort to shield the almost-desperate way her eyes trailed his wound, eager to get her paws on it.

No sooner is her attention grasped by a nearby crop of African Ginger - unfurling inelegantly from a nearby stump in plumes of green.

Falling into the area with a soundless gait, she follows after her half-sister in deep thought. Wondering what she was up to and awkwardly wondering if her assumptions were correct. Sometimes it felt like her half-siblings didn't exactly take pleasure in the twins. That they were nothing but a blight upon the family. Truth was, she only vaguely remembered being disgustingly looked at by one of them once but couldn't remember who had done it. Daneri wanted them to like her but she also recognized that she wasn't going to spend her entire life trying to make up for things she couldn't control. Seeing that her sister was busy, Daneri crouched quietly by herself, sighed and waited to begin.
