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!

[OOC: Fight for trades and stuff! :D]

The red woman approached the pit, pausing at the crest of what amounted to a place of blood and honor. She stared at first, debating the merits of this before shrugging and moving towards the center of the space. Kireena made sure that she had taken some time to give herself a good shake before relaxing and giving a chuff to those that may wish to join her in her endeavors of honing her skills.

The Andallan stood, waiting - her gaze passing over the terrain - noting the scents of those that had come before her. For the first time in quite some time, the woman had NOT cleansed her hide of the scent of her pride - choosing to see what might happen if she remained with the scent of the Oasis clinging to her pelt.

She was so close to being an adult that she could feel it! Aideen was massive, and in her mind at least an absolute bad-ass. She approached the pit with a level of enthusiasm that was palpable and visible on her face. A red lioness was there, and Aideen barreled down the pit to meet her, a smirk on her jaws. "You wanna fight?" She offered. "I'll fight ya."

The massive yearling tucked her head, her paws spreading in the dirt for balance as she faced the female her tail lashing excitedly. Of course, she wanted to get on with it, but uh, maybe she should confirm they wanted to fight before just fighting.

"You look a bit young. Are you sure you can take her?" Tiamat said as she approached, having just arrived at the pit in search of her own fight. She'd happened across a massive woman with ruddy, thick fur, clearly waiting for an opponent and a girl, the same height as the woman but clearly still not at her full weight, who seemed eager to test the older lioness. Needless to say, Tiamat was interested.

She approached the pair, her scarred pelt making it clear that she was a fighter and her confident gait marking her as someone who at least believed she was important. The plot twist was that she was, in fact, a queen. But that wasn't something she felt the need to make known as she stopped and settled her haunches onto the ground, at least interested in watching the fight, if not joining in.

"Maybe I can fight the winner?" she suggested with a raised brow, looking from the powerful-looking woman to the younger girl.

Please notify me BEFORE starting a major maim/death match with this character
I'm not against major fights for her, but I work long days and I need the communication to be able to plan replies!

The red giant would let her gaze land on @Aideen before she offered the younger female a bemused grin and a tilt of her skull. The kid was big - and would need to learn to control that size and strength if she was going to make something of herself in her pride. A soft inhalation told the Andallan she belonged to the bluffs - but beyond that, she knew little of the other. "Allright.. How about you go first?"

An offer to the younger feline to get the first shot in - for Kireena to see what skills the other had. Underestimating ones opponent simply based on age usually ended poorly. The arrival of @Tiamat had a rumble of a laugh lifting from her breast as the druid glanced towards the Lagoon feline. "That sounds fun.." And then, she supposed, she could use some of the knowledge she had to patch all three of them up.

Gaze returned towards the young feline as she gave herself a shake and settled into a balanced stance, waiting to see if the girl would take the first hit or allow the Lagoon woman to do so. She had few intentions of actually injuring either of the two cats - it was only for fun, practice... and perhaps to test the mettle of the other prides... for future science, of course.

Well, Red was just as big as she was. Ah, okay a bit bigger, if Aideen was being honest- because she hadn't fully grown yet. Aideen wasn't daunted though, her head high, and a scoff leaves her as another speaks. "I'm so strong." She says, almost stupidly. She looks to the big red female as she speaks, and nods sharply at her words. Where some others, may have taken a second to debate on the strengths or weaknesses of a large lioness- well Aideen just barreled in head-first.

Aideen aimed to barrel forward, aiming to direct herself just slightly to the left, so that she could aim for her right shoulder to barrel into the other lioness. She'd seen that once or twice at challenges, and wanted to try it. Of course, she probably should guess that she needed some sort of follow up and it's rather untrained and undisciplined when her jaws aim for the top of the lionesses right shoulder with what she hopes will be a firm but not too damaging bite.

And it began - the red woman would wait, leaning slightly into the oncoming charge of the younger feline, feeling the bruise as it broke upon her right shoulder. The bite - when it came left some punctures - though minimal. Kireena laced her ears to her skull, jaws parting as she would attempt to nip at the younger females own shoulder - a return for the damage done to her own.

Though this was for nothing more than practice, the woman knew that injuries with more severity could still happen and was mindful to try not to send the other home with injuries that might bring down some trouble in the end. Her right front claw would attempt to lift, trying to stamp down on Aideen's closest foot - talons were sheathed, however, knowing that the size of her paw alone could cause damage if she used her full strenght.. Which she chose not to - choosing instead to hone her own skills.

The reverberations of her slam into the other female sent shockwaves of pain through her own body. She hissed in discomfort, and though she managed a minimal bite, she snarled in annoyance at the feeling of a nip on her own shoulder. Nothing prepared her from the pain in her foot, when the other lioness's foot slammed down into her own. "YEE OW!" She yelped, attempting to jerk her foot free, though she didn't know that it would budge.

"Get OFF!" She said, aiming to shove forward if she could, even with her foot pinned, to hopefully ram her with a shoulder, as she aimed to lower her head and nip at the other lionesses leg, if she's able. So rude!

The screech of the other had her snarling more out of annoyance than pain as Aideen attempted to yank her foot back. Kireena chuckled, a bemused smirk upon her lips before she would attempt to shift that foot, lifting it - to try to allow the girl freedom - but not before she felt the nip against her own limb and the shove to her shoulder leaving bruises beneath her pelt.

Blood trickled down the carmine limb, but she didn't seem to mind - instead attempting to swipe her front right leg towards Aideen's jaws, claws only partially extended so as not to cause major damage to the younger feline. Remaining limbs remained balanced, ears pinned and eyes narrowed in the event the girl got any smart ideas like going for her face - or... her ears.. Again.

Aideen might be super strong but she was also, honestly a bit of an idiot. She, of course, yowled her displeasure, and when the lioness shifted a bit, she jerked her foot free, before taking the foot and aiming to swat the lioness across the face.
Super fighting move. She knew it was probably stupid but she'd slapped her sister like that once, and well, she hadn't liked it. As she made her move, the lionesses claws found her face- just the tips of them, but it stung, and she snarled in irritation- definitely glad she'd tried to put some force behind her own blow. Though she had not aimed to slap with claws extended, she did put some force behind the blow, aiming to make the stranger feel it.

Now if only she didn't duck away from her.

It was the swat to her face that had Kireena wondering "really?" She was by no means a vain creature, but the fact that it was more of a bitch slap than a claws out strike did sting her ego... a little. Rude... Of course - the impact WOULD leave a bruise in her wake, and the red woman would snarl, ears flattening even as her eyes narrowed against any possible damage that might come their way.

Kireena would attempt to balance herself, trying to return her earlier attacking limb to the ground so that she could attempt to physically shove into Aideen with her shoulder, and some weight behind it.
