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!

Spring
The rain is slowly peetering out across the lands, though it is still heaviest in the east and lightest in the west. Thankfully, however, the temperature is steadly rising and the sun no longer hides behind the clouds. In celebration of the new season, the vegetation is alive and lush and plants are growing wildly across the valley. Spring is in the air!

ANOTHER FAMILY, YES. I KNOW.
the children of carinae law; half siblings to camelia law. they have two nieces roaming amaryllis already (@Ceto and @Susurra), and have come to join them. camelia has settled with a new family, but would have pointed them the way to go.

the goal shared by these siblings would be to re-establish their family name, and a home after losing it all in a bloody and brutal war. their mother had built a grand empire, one that was known for its' fortune and luck. they would have been born after camelia had, and in the time carinae's family had been ousted from their previous home. in the time camelia had been separated from her birth family, it is assumed that she and her remaining loyalists established a new kingdom, where she had found her second husband, neomaris. he would have taken her name, as a sign of devotion and love to her and her family.

bad omens, as they often go in times of prosperity, went overlooked and now they are left to pick up the pieces of their family. the characters below are loose concepts and ideas, yours to alter and make your own.

their ages can range anywhere between two years of age, to a fully mature five. i came across these designs meant for another site and another law-related idea, but i thought they could be used here instead.


FAMILY CULTURE
— monogamous to a fault. soul-mates are a heavy belief.
— equality among all. life is sacred. honor and valor above all.
— unity above everything.
— leadership is determined by strength and not order of birth.
— often employed as warriors. working as a succinct unit.
— 'clean deaths' preferred.
— superstitious. known to practice small 'spells' and sacrifices
— known for large litters, small is a sign of poor luck.
— heavily clung to a sense of duty.
— large builds. stocky, muscular, voluptuous.
— primitive markings: spotting, rosettes, sable, dorsal w/ tail. leucism, as seen below, has become commonplace. though has not been found in every child shared between carinae and neomaris.
— latin or roman-based names; star/sky/night related names.


NAME IDEAS — Austice, Velleita, Thalian, Cachinne, Iridalia, Mulcibera, Ophidion, Osciniane, Pridienne, Risoriale, Sibilante, Polyphia, Petrichore, Eldritch, Bellicose, Antares, Sirius, Rigel, Aludra, Celaeno, Nascor, Siderea, Stellans, Stellare, Haedus, Trionis, Hyadis, Arcera, Astrale, Sideris, Vesper, Oriens, Eous, Asteria, Anaphora, Dianae, Lune, Caerula, Aethra, Caelifer, Dijovis, Rovina


THE HOUSE OF LAW

lord of house law | the claimant to the throne and savior of the house law. no longer a king but set on ushering the survivors into an era of renewal and peace as their patriarch. leading the war-torn and weary refugees to a new horizon, a brighter future. guided by their elder sister camelia's tale, and knowledge of her own children in amaryllis, they set their eyes on setting root here. humbled now, in this new chapter, though is possibly excited by the idea of building from the ground up as their mother had done.


malcontent winter | approx. three or so. the voice of reason. sometimes found to be too dour, too serious. a gloom-cloud above the heads of those seeking and wishing for positivity, for optimism. a tiresome sort, though beloved for the logic and well-intended guidance they provide. distrusting of most, and ferociously protective of their kin and friends. more vinegar than wine, but makes for savoury company all the same.


vernal sweetsong | peacemaker, the salve, the balm to soothe the battles of ego and heart. always torn between stitching the ripped seams, always forced into corners to make it all fit once again. a dreamer, who's eyes were always set upon finding the world and seeing more and more of it. perhaps too giddy now they've been given adventure, perhaps too excited over this new chapter. hope personified.


fall of honor | forever repentant; quiet, and subdued by the ruin of their own efforts. caught up in the swell of failure, it is hard not to feel responsible for the ruin of their mother's legacy, of the kingdom she had built. once a war hero, and now they only feel as though they were robbed of a clean death and all the glory and valour once tied to their name.


summer sun | the gremlin, the little beastling. to unspoken chagrin, they chose to tag along with their siblings into this new chapter. not very useful, nor one who truly emulates all that their name stands for. but, a good time, and a friend to most they meet. the sweet-eyed sibling is more interested in pursuing amusement over the goal set in mind. adventure had called, and the summer sun had answered. it also helps, they've been more help than a hindrance in keeping the fellowship together.


PLEASE, NOTE
— adopters can consider these characters theirs upon acceptance. i will not re-adopt them out.
— spouses and children are also allowed, it's believable they'd have established families.
— other siblings can be introduced if the interest is there.
— personalities and appearances are pretty much open. the provided is only suggestions and can be altered.
— name bank is just a few suggestions but please, be as creative as you want !! this is gonna be your character, so go wild with your idears.

lord of the house — male — five years — thalian law — moodboard


heavy is the head that wears the crown; was never going to be the lord but when they lost everything they had, he steps up. if only because he, too, lost it all; his family is all that is left. when he lost his kingdom he lost his wife and his son and daughters and he was so ready to bow his head and accept a clean death - until they looked to him for help. and so he stepped up, wearily accepting the role of patriarch with a steadfast loyalty that has never wavered. somber in the best of times and downright exhausted in the worst. his heart has been broken and hastily put back together but he knows a harsh breeze could send it crumbling once more. determined to usher them where they need to be before he lets go. desperate to keep his family aloft to the point of obsession; can prove to be rigid and unbending, harsh in his expectations. doggedly drags himself onward to the end goal. temperamental and has a more hair trigger than in years past - likely to lean on his soothsayer brother for help. struggles to stand alone and not burden his family with his problems, feeling as the patriarch he is meant to be stronger; likely to need an outlet as a result. not violent for the sake of violence but all too eager to step to the plate for his family - and, maybe, because a death at the fangs of another would be an acceptable way to give in.


misc
— believes himself to have lost his only chance at love; closed his heart away
— blames himself for the war that ravaged his family, for taking a wife that was initially betrothed to another
— very superstitious, now especially

Caerula Law ac_unit malcontent winter ac_unit three years


Quick to quip, tease, and pour salt. The tongue is a wicked blade when wielded; while at the same time, joviality comes from the more optimistic tones of the hopeful fae. Burdened by need to extend wit, whether comical, endearing, or sour. Intellect remains behind the quick jump to answer appropriately, almost always concisely. Comes across as abrupt, perhaps rude even at times.

Hope carries on dreams of utopia. Unwanted advice is given to those dour times, intending to lighten the mood. Always things are done under good intentions, though at times uneeded, understandably so. Persistence towards optimism creates moments of tension. Believer of the good in the bad. Rejects negativity, fears anything perceived as wrongdoing, or evil.

Distrustful of those outside the family. Even those within are looked upon with skepticism, uncertain of the true intentions carried by those surrounded by when distant relatives. Makes for relationships hard to form, hard to keep. Romanticism is likely far from the expectations of any formation of bonds, for there is always that doubt lingering at the back of the mind.

HAHAHA time hates me im sorry gang but my holidays slipped away from me in the form of laziness.

Forgive me!!!

But, happily, those who're still interested may claim up the kids they wanted. I'll update the thread once there's confirmation. I know there's many exciting opportunities for cubs coming down the pipe so there'll be no disappointment in seeing these as tertiary characters or if anyone withdraws <3
