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!

September 26th, 2023 A series of pride challenges spark up across the peninsula, while warring families face-off as tensions reach their boiling points. Anthonius Savante barely manages to escape the clutches of Apollinaire Dieudonne with his life, while death looms over the broken truce between the Valour-Greyflood and Saxe families.

September 4th, 2023 After Tinúviel collapsed at the Wolfbron Bluff's challenge, she was unable to make it back to the Lagoon to take up her leadership position again and the pride disbands. Diomedeidae & Cirilla fight for the pride.

August 28th, 2023 Both Amara and Morrigan keep their prides. Lachesis doesn't show to defend the Brook and Renfri takes over. The Wolfbron Bluffs challenge seems to be setting off fireworks already.

August 15th, 2023 The two longest standing female leaders are both fighting for their prides once again. Anthonius challenges Amara for the Bluffs. Amaroq challenges Morrigan for the Summit. A new leader faces his first challenge as Renfri challenges Lachesis for the Brook. Did anyone think that peace was something the island was able to have?

August 1st, 2023 Conflict, drama, love, and loss - the lands are never free from any of it for more than a fleeting moment. As the summer months wane on and the season nears its end, there is no telling what is coming next upon the horizon.

June 19th, 2023 With the rains leaving and spring upon the island, things are heating up among the lions. Bruno seeks to unseat his father in the Mire. Helah looks to dethrone Scorpius in the Oasis and keep the fire between the Bluffs and the Oasis alive. The Plains have raided the Brook and allies on both sides showed up to help.

May 23rd, 2023 All is fair in love and war - moments of chaos and peace lull in a cyclical nature across the lands of Amaryllis, though most are wise enough to know that the quiet never lasts quite long enough.

April 20th, 2023 Alexander manages to win the Hollows and Tiamat keeps the Lagoon. Vághan challenges Amara for the Bluffs but Amara is able to hold off another challenger and keeps the Bluffs. The Cove was hit by a storm that washed away it's leader leaving the lands open to be claimed by Nephthys and Keligan who both are attached to the land. Cirilla attempts to take the Oasis from Scorpius who seems driven to keep the land.

April 5th, 2023 It doesn't take long for the dust to kick up as the Hollows is challenged for by Alexander once again and the Lagoon is challenged for by Fernweh.

March 31st, 2023 As wars and challenges continue to break out across the lands, Amaryllis is certainly keeping up with its turbulent reputation. One can only hope that the dust will settle soon enough - for everyone's sake.

March 10th, 2023 The turbulance of the prides never ceases for very long, as a violent landslide forces the members of Firnen Rainforest to evacuate and disband. Who will step up for the throne this time around?

March 1st, 2023 While Gauthier manages to retain control of Caladan Cove, Lorien Plains' fate is not so simple. With Aeistrios overthrowing Violarum and taking the pride's throne, how will things unravel from here?

Summer
The summer season has finally reached its peak. The sunshine is plentiful, the days are long and the air is hot and humid - but the evenings do not seem to provide the same relief that they once had, and remain somewhat stuffy. Thunderstorms have also began appearing more frequently, particularly in the rainforest and eastern region, though the rain is welcomed after a relatively dry season thus far.

Just because it was rainin' didn't mean he wasn't any less hungry.

A light drizzle had begun to fall from the clouded sky above, coverin' Lucien in a thin layer of droplets that hadn't quite yet soaked into his fur and mane. He had been goin' about the falls in search of nicer places to call his den for the time bein', but after a while it was enough to cause for an appetite to rear its head. Paws carried him along the edge of the pool of water, the crashin' of water on top of juttin' rocks a sound that was both relaxin' and one that engrossed the immediate area around him. Ears would prick forward as they strained to listen to the rest of the world around him, tryin' to pinpoint the faint shufflin' of possible prey. Shoulders would roll as he followed where his nose led him, lettin' out several short chuffs to see if any other lions were around - might as well see if others wanted to help, right?

"Lucien, darling, I'm beginning to think you might be obsessed with me. I'm flattered," she teased with a soft smirk as she picked up on his voice from across the way. She didn't prefer to be out in the rain, but she supposed the waterfall had its advantages. It would drown out their approach to any unsuspecting prey and unsuspecting prey was the easiest prey. She was accustomed to their dog and pony show by now and effortlessly fell into place beside him, glancing from the corner of her eye to see how receptive he was to her constant presence. Whatever. They worked well together.

4 years old, Master Ranger (+1 hunt roll, -1 prey dodge, gives every lion +1 hunt roll, counts as 2 lions), Specializes in Giraffe Calf

Heading from the south, she went towards the realm of her home and headed North. It was starting to rain and the lioness was drenched from head to toe. Pink gaze glanced around as she wandered away from the Shores and up to the Peak. Winding through the trails, she found the Falls. Flicking her ears for the sounds around her, she heard the waterfall before she saw it. There was also a chuff called out in the air and pink gaze glanced around until she saw two familiar figures. Both she had seen in previous hunts and dipped down into a crouch. Listening to the red female's comment that she shook her head about before shifting her attention to the male who called the hunt. Wondering what his target was as the rain continued to coat her pelt and drench it.

Quitting is not an option

Wet, smelly, and wet. The Yu normally wasn't one concerned with her appearance but in this boring drab weather, even she felt in a bad mood. But what better way to lift one's spirit than to take another's? The lioness approached the others who had fallen in between the familiar frame of the lone ranger. Or maybe he wasn't so alone with how others sought him and his hunting calls.

The Yu flicked an ear at the red woman's comment but said nothing instead her mismatched gaze landed on the pink frame. She'd not seen the rosy woman as often as the other two but she was not fully unknown. With a smile on her lips, she let out a low quiet chuff, a greeting. "Ready for the fun to start?" she questioned @Raizel, tail flicking in excitement for the coming hunt. The feeling of the earth beneath her paws, the blood pulsing in her veins. Hunting had to be one of the best things to do, other than fighting. Fighting was always better and more fun. Though the Yu did not think pulling someone into a brawl right now would be taken in a good way. Which was a shame, who didn't like a good surprise brawl?

Making her way downtown through Sacred Falls, jogging at a fair pace to keep her breathing even and her heart rate going; intent on distracting herself from all of the now raging thoughts she had going on inside of her head. Wanting nothing more than to disappear into the rocky surface of the waterfall that roared overhead at least once on her running loop. Exercising seemed to be about the only way to get the rampant thoughts out of her head, though she supposed stopping to hunt with a gathering group was just as good. Halting her exercises and meandering a bit closer, rolling up alongside one of the many rocky faces of the area before scraping her right front claws along the bottom of it. Careful not to make much sound but still enough to make a light gray mark in its surface, if she was going to use them then they needed to be as sharp as she could get them. Though, she supposed she wouldn't want to upset anyone nearby if she were the one to make their hunt fail either so she kept them quiet.

6 yr., lvl 2 ranger: +1 dice to hunt rolls

A steady rain had begun as Artemisia made her way toward the falls. She knew of the cave that were behind the waterfall and wanted to slip past and settle there for the time being. Slender form moved quickly across the foliage, thick earthen colored fur starting to soak up the rain, causing for a low grumbling growl to vibrate her throat. The siren wasn't much of a fan of getting her fur wet when it wasn't on her terms.

As she neared the falls she would pick up on both the sounds of another calling for a hunt as well as several other scents - one including whatever prey that had made the caller recruit more bodies in his hunting party. Moving further forward would bring Artemisia to the small group, crimson eyes glancing over them before realizing she knew one of them gathered here. She looks at @Nephthys and offers a subtle friendly smile before refocusing on the task at paw. "Hopefully something good on the menu, hm?" She would speak to them before allowing for her body to slip into a hunter's crouch, waiting for the cue to move.

When it comes to Mircea's favored exercise sessions, it seemed that neither rain nor sleet nor hail would keep him from them. It could be annoying certainly, but the ill weather could be viewed as just another way for the Savante man to build up his endurance and strength.

The drizzling raindrops beginning to soak into his dappled coat carry with them a chill made more bitter by the barren season, but the brute isn't aware of it so much now while his muscles are working to heave his colossal frame over the slick rocks as he canters up and down the challenging trails. The pattering sound of the rain grows steadily louder, until eventually he realizes it's not just the rain he's hearing, but the sound of a thunderous waterfall, and he alters his route to greet it. His long claws, fully extended to help him grip at the unideal terrain, scrape dully across the wet stone as he runs, the friction slowly refining the tapered points.

Points that may come in useful sooner rather than later he finds, when he all but stumbles into a group of hunters, perhaps looking to take advantage of how the rain dampened all scents. He is quick to quiet the sounds of his heavy breathing when he halts, finding no joy in the thought of accidentally scaring away their quarry. Especially when this offers an opportunity for him to make this outing a little more...interesting.

He drops himself into as low of a crouch as he can manage, and takes up postion near the rear of the group.

three years, L3 Beatnik -1 to dodge roll for prey
Hunting was perhaps one of the few things she was happy to attend when it came up. Desiring something to do so as to appear helpful not just to her pride but to others. Despite what others thought of her that she knew of, Zelda was a helpful lion who just so happened to like lounging around and doing nothing better. Though, it didn't mean that she was exclusively useless either. So she aimed to approach the gathering of lions and the hunt that they so sought to do and tried her best to smile at each one of them in turn before pushing her focus to their target.

He was exploring the area when something interesting happened. He could have sworn saw … nah it couldn’t be. Could it? Well clearly but at the moment that didn’t matter as there was a hunting party forming. Looking at those gathering he ran his claws against a tree before approaching and taking a place silently somewhere within their rankings. Hopefully this hunt brings down something good and he could bring back something for the lagoon’s cache. Looking at those around he he stared at @Fenna for a few seconds before turning his gaze to the possible prey.
