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!

Part vampire Part warrior
Carnivore and voyeur


blood, of ancient sorcery, weaves their violent magic against the black earth.  sirenic whispers, the after-thought of autumnal rain, all linger against that ebbing lifeforce.  blood; pools of blood - all coats the breathing earth.  it soaks it up - the hungry earth - drinking the vermillion filthiness, as the black soil toils rich in its sanguine addictions. 

dregs of moonlight, peel against his wraith-like flesh, thus. lending haunting beauty to angular, male features. he is here, again - an eidolon, a thirsty behemoth; to sate his bloodlust against the living. the condemned. to fill his mouth with their blood and feast upon their withered spirits. without sound, houndish steps bring the feral warrior into the centerfold. a coliseum, for a hunter's promise, a vampire's needs. with a guttural snarl, harou's rage, unfurls. it's sharp, his hunger. an elegant manifestation of ruin.

he wants blood, he wants flesh. he wants you.

(This post was last modified: 02-07-2024, 04:22 PM by Sersie.)


When the world tries to break and bend her, Sersie throws herself into the pit. A month to flame, an addict.of adrenaline and pain..It's the fleeting moments in battle that bring the woman true, unbridled joy. She has nothing, and that is what makes her a formidable foe.

The limestone brings back comforting memories, blood spilled in the name of violence. It's tangy iron smell mixed with sweat, tears, and shattered earth. The belly of the beast drags softly, quietly, encroaching upon her supposed unsuspecting prey-- sore, tender jaw ignored. As was the healing would upon her head. Sersie holds her breath, for fear a cough would give her away. Damn the infection, damn the wounds.

She wants to feel alive again.

Green finds black, white and red. Prey on the form of a stranger. Bigger, stronger, someone worthy. The ground devours her body as she flies into action, hind legs propelling her in a leap at the hulking beast before her. With luck, perhaps her attack takes the creature by surprise--forcing her stiffened jaw to try and snag some of his flesh at the hind end, as her singular forepaw tries to drag along his left hip.

Sersie never feared death, but oh how she missed it's company each time it left her. Aside from the fox, the entity was probably her only friend.

The witchling had never been to the pits. She'd never seen the stony hollow with a lingering scent of blood and fate in the air and ground. It drew her in. It had the girl marveling at the rocks wondering what color they would glow if painted with fresh new blood. Oh and how her fur prickled at the roar that echoed from the depths of the pit. A monster coming to life, a promise of blood and fate splayed for all to see.

Meisia dropped low. Her chartreux frame pressed against the stony ground as she moved forward. Abdul had taught her some of his tricks, his skills for how to hide and move unseen. She was not a master but she was learning and practice would make perfect.

So the witchling moved to peer at the monster in the depths of the pit. Her mismatched orbs landed on the large creature that loomed. Her gaze drifted to see another charging at the larger lion, the lioness's sandy three-legged frame familiar. The former Scilla queen lived, @Sersie lived, and the sea had not claimed her. The sea had not been painted with her blood that night when the Lagoon was washed clean. Fate had other plans, fate had a plan. And perhaps the witchling was now even more interested in the fight. To see how this three-legged lioness would fight. How she could think herself able to rule, a queen. She was but half a lion.

The witchling waited a smile creeping onto inky lips as her tongue darted over them. "Let blood paint the rocks, let blood spill and run, let their fate be painted in red." she'd whisper quietly, mismatched gaze never leaving the carnage about to unfold. Her prayer is quiet and holding no favor for either. Blood would flow, and blood would decide who won. She just had to wait, wait and see.

Part vampire Part warrior
Carnivore and voyeur


in the barely-there moonlight, the wintry leviathan paces; restless, eager, passionate - hungering to drink from the fleshly chalice of mortal vessels. and darkness has many forms, many faces, many shapes. his mortal cup, tonight, comes in the curvaceous figure of @Sersie, whose golden bodice he only catches glimpses off, as ears violently serve backwards to pinpoint the sudden, lunging commotion. darkness envelopes the arena, envelopes the charging form of the smaller lioness, as harou hears her - then first feels, the opposition's fangs and claws draw against his hind-flesh.

blooded rivulets rise to the surface of icy, male flesh; just as he turns around to face her - a shudder of heat and adrenaline to rush down his muscular back. opening his jaws wide, harou retaliates, swiftly; seeking to cleave apart the female's face, as he turns around. attempting to bite her cheek, with his wide jaws, agape, salivating. his left paw comes up, too, talons splaying with murderous intention; attempting to grasp at her shoulder-flesh. attempting to drag her into him, if he can manage it.

the fight ends as soon as it begins. it would be anticlimactic, not exciting. harou removes himself from the golden banshee and paces a few steps ahead. there is no emotion on his face, no sense of victory touching his features, despite having won. he would make his way towards the exit of the coliseum, licking his blood-stained lips. an eerie sense of yearning washes over him, silent in his ghostly wrath. he feels the needle-pricks of wanderlust touching his muscles, sinking their relentless hunger into his mind. he would have to sate his bloodlust elsewhere, but there is a part of him that wishes to encounter @Sersie again in the future.

exit harou
