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.

PRIDE HUNT

Only marked pride lions count. Please include your character's age and any trade bonuses at the top of their post. Failure to provide this info will result in your character not counting towards the hunt roll.

4 years ;; ranger level 3, maxed out- counts as two lions in a hunt


the male really enjoyed the brook and the plentiful prey that the pride seemed overwhelmed with at times. sometimes the prey was a challenge, and sometimes, it was stupid- so when he spies the generuk, he also finds himself some brush- and lays down against the earth. earlier, in the morning, he had rolled in some mud- okay, rolled was a generous term, but that sounded better than fell so he knew his scent should be well masked- not giving him up to the foolish creature. and so, eskel would wait in silence, to see who would possibly come forth to help take down the beast.

6 years, Bard Lv 1, +1 to luck?


Though usually a loud clumsy beast, Bronx had smelled fresh prey enter the brook. And not one to miss a opportunity he would move as silently as he could. In fact the only noise he made was before he entered the area of their target. It was at the den of his nephew Castus, asking him to join. Castus would instead curl tighter pretending to sleep. The boy ate from the caches but he didn't actively participate in the kills. and Bronx was worried that if he ended up in a pride not surrounded by family, how long that would last him.

A shrug of his shoulders and he moved to enter some underbrush carefully. Emerald eyes narrowing on their target while he waited. They needed someone more... lithe for this. He was no longer a nice skinny youth, he had filled out in the last couple years and was anything but.

Caligula did what he could to help out. He knew that he wasn't the best at most things but that didn't stop him from trying. He tried to remain to be someone that could be counted on to be there. He wished to remain a known presence in the pride, even if he was getting up there in age.

The male made his way out with the thought to walk the borders at least. But then the scent of prey distracted him. "Always have to be in the water." He muttered to himself as he stopped a distance off. Yeah, he wasn't about to get any closer. It wasn't the prey he was worried about but the brook itself.

6 years, no bonus


Revna slips through the shadows, catching the scent of prey in the wind and deternind to help fill the prides stores. She is quick to join the others who are gathering, slipping up beside a male she doesn't recognize (Caligula) who is mumbling something about the water."Don't like the water?" she asks quietly eith a soft chuckle, not really expecting an answer as they all prepare to join in the hunt.

The prey is easy today, and probably doesn't require too many lions to participate. But the more there are the more coordinated they can be, and the more likely it is that they will be successful.

7 years, no trade bonus, pride tier 5.
Gareth had been running the borders often enough that it was mostly just for the benefit of himself sometimes. At least, to the excessive amount that he did it. If anything he was doing it on the basis of protecting the pride but it also kept him and his very busy mind occupied. Running the borders forced him to think in the present more than in the past as well as kept him from worrying about the future.

Back and forth along the perimeter did he jog through his own trail in the dirt as he kept his eyes focused on the outside. Any passing blur out there would easily be met by bright blue eyes and a flash of teeth. Those beings who might keep to the shadows would find nothing but a fight in case. Constantly pushing himself forward and stretching his muscles out until he needed to rest them but only for a few minutes before he'd start up again at a full sprint.

It was only the call to a hunt that led him astray as he took a break from his constant border-wanders to venture closer to the gathered members. Eyeing each of those that he passed until settling in. Hunting never was an easy task for him but if it meant being helpful, he would do it.

"2 years | No Trade Bonus | Pride Tier 5"

She was apparently late to the party, it would seem, as she approached the source of the prey-scent that tempted her forward. The Brook was growing ever-larger these days, what with her children and new members alike. Flicking an ear as she approached, the Sovereign let out a soft chuff of greeting to the rest of the hunting party that surrounded their quarry.

It was but a single Generuk. With as many lions that were already here, this should be an easy hunt. She recognized everyone here - though some she was less familiar with than others. She aimed to meet @Revna's gaze for a moment and give her a soft smile before pulling up alongside her uncle @Gareth. "Ready for a hunt?" She asked, looking towards him as she spoke before moving her attention back towards the quarry, ready to follow Eskel's lead since he initially called the hunting party together.

Another hunt would be on the agenda today. She caught the scent while out patrolling the borders, ensuring that no would be trespassers were lingering around. Ever since the encounter with the lioness Cassandra and Aquila intercepted Valkravn had been on high alert, not wanting a repeat of what happened before. Whereas they lost hold of many other places in Amaryllis, the Brook was for the natives and she would fight until her last breath to ensure it stayed that way.

Her nose would begin to guide her, following the scent at a steady jog. She moved over fallen trees and around thick brush, keeping an eye out for any movement of potential meals. Soon enough would she be led to the long necked gazelle surrounded by several pride mates. Valkravn would bring herself low to the ground then, waiting and ready to spring into aciton.

2 years, no perks

There was a call for a hunt, and aside from brooding over his new duties as the Sigrun's Jarl, he wasn't doing anything productive. He wanted to do something productive, and at the sound of the hunting chuffs, he jumped to his feet and trotted towards the area.

He had believed strongly that he would be a great match for the Sigrun Jarl, but passed that? He hadn't put much thought into it. He knew he wanted to get them back into Vellen's good graces, and as a priest, he had an idea of how to do that... however, beyond that? The Rike threat? Their allies? Other threats that might've loomed in the shadows of their future? That he was unsure of.

He found the group by the brook, and noticed his mother among the bodies there. She hadn't really spoken to him since the meeting, and this was going on a few months now. Though, with Dhaveira's belly swollen with the blessing of children, he could understand that her attention was elsewhere at the moment.

"Vellen, gefðu okkur styrk og skjótleika til að taka niður verðuga bráð þessa veiði," he murmured as he settled into a seating position, waiting for someone to begin calling the shots. It wasn't his place to.

Six years, no perks

As per usual, there were far more of them than were needed for a hunt of this nature, but she was sure her presence there wouldn't hurt either. So she came to join those gathering to corner the generuk that had wandered into the pride.

"There be enough here ye don't have to get too close," she said softly to Caligula, coming to stand beside him. The brook wasn't very deep, but she knew he disliked water of all kinds. She didn't know why, but it didn't seem prudent to ask. As she'd said, though, he likely wouldn't have to worry about it much.
