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.

House Nesryn
      |   #1
(This post was last modified: 01-23-2022, 02:36 PM by Drifter.)
House Nesryn is an old family originating within the realms of Amaryllis.
The family is made up of both blood and adoptions. Not all are Wardens, and not all hold the name Nesryn, but all belong to The House. All Nesryn are also indistinguishable by the title Northern Wardern. Or just simply, Warden.

House Nesryn are self proclaimed protectors of Amaryllis' sacred locations. The main being a cave that they believe to be the location that Maua first breathed life onto the land. The birth place of the first living creatures of Amaryllis. This cave system on the Tundra's edge is also where The Wardens call home.

The late patriarch sent the family to permitantly reside within the cave and its tunnels roughly three years ago. House Nesryn is not what it once was. Their numbers dwindle. And the patriarch feared extinction as more and more outsiders slipped into Amaryllis.

Now that the elder lion has passed on, House Nesryn is led by his wife. Lady Liara is far more open minded than her late husband. At eleven years of age she no longer wishes to cower underground. With their home still remaining a secret from outsiders, the family is beginning to trickle out of hiding.

With her excellerated age, Lady Liara has appointed Alabaster and his brother as future patriarchs of the family.

Bonus information:

House Nesryn are lawful individuals. As they are known for being protectors, Paladin should be one or the other of their trades. Either Master or Sub. Outside of this their personalities are free for you to interpret.

The Wardens are typically monogamous but polygamy isn't out of the question. The one rule of thumb to know is that The Wardens believe in something called a Fated. A Fated is a mate that a Warden holds above all others. Children with them are given the name Nesryn and destined to become Wardens themselves.
Children not bore from a Fated will not gain the name Nesryn and will not be granted Wardenship.

House Nesryn also cherish Wisp children; as they are a direct creation from Maua. Even if both parents are outsiders, a wisp child is seen as a native to the Wardens. And thus deserving of protection.

_____________________________________


There are a maximum of six members up for adoption. Everything about them is yours to make. (They must be Native.)
But to help you out:

Are they Nesryn, born outside of a Fated pair and thus not given the house name or Wardenship, or adopted in?
How would you like them to be related? Mother? Father? Aunt? Uncle? Cousin? Child of someone?
Did they support the family going into hiding?
Did they resent the old patriarch for "running away"?
If they are older than three years of age then feel free to plot preexisting history between other natives after adoption.

NEX
half-sister (? or cousin) to alabaster & bro
2.5 yrs
not from a fated pair, a little sadsalty about it

plum. x-fluffy. global shading, global marbling. light cheeks. dark socks. face freckles. bobbed tail. blue eyes. slit pupils. curled ears.

a wandering soul with a penchant for adventure. she lives for the ( harmless ) thrill and the challenge. fun loving and eager. she's bold and careless but not in a way meant to be ruthless or cruel. quick to smile and joke. teasing and gentle, overall, but has a fierce streak that is unleashed when her family is threatened. they are her world ( literally ) and while she doesn't agree with everything they do, she doesn't stand for insults or threats. keen sense of justice, not vengeance, though she is still young. there's plenty of time for the world to be unkind and to change her perspective. incredibly suspicious even though she's been sheltered and even though she wants to have more than what they currently have. cautious with strangers but pride can make her tongue loose and dares can make it even looser. longs for everything she can't have, reaching for something she doesn't quite understand. she wants the love of a fated relationship even as she chafes against the idea that her parents were somehow lesser, that she is somehow unworthy of the nesryn name. tries to have a brave face, to not be overshadowed or jealous or fickle, but it all festers under her skin. physical. young in mind - naïve in many ways.

Name: Obsidian Nesryn
Relation: Full brother of Alabaster (one for UFA)
Personality: Obsidian is a male who is quite understanding in the way the world works. His beliefs are strong to Maua as Amaryllis has served as his home since birth- and even with outsiders coming in, he is not swayed. Obsidian is a mannered male, kind, and always polite to those around him… but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have fangs and claws. His bite is a lot worse than his bark and while he is a natural protector, he will shed blood to ensure those of his family are safe. Observant, Obsidian often thinks before acting as he doesn’t let impulses get the best of him, fearing any injustice would be a crime to Maua’s eyes.

He believes there is a fated relationship out in the world for him, someone Maua has created and made just for him. He longs to find his fated and until then, remains strictly to himself as he doesn’t wish to do his fated any wrong. He often frowns upon Wardens who mate before finding their fated, but these are opinions he keeps to himself namely.

Trades: Paladin and Ambassador

Name: Onyx Nesryn
Relation: Brother of Alabaster
Appearance: The exact opposite of his brother in appearance, Onyx is coated in shades of ebony. The tips of his ears and a mask are a slightly darker shade of black, nearly unnoticeable in the slight difference. Darker socks, and a tail tip, are more obvious than the rest of his markings; even then, in the right lighting, Onyx is nothing more than a dark shadow. His eyes are the darkest thing about him, being a solid black, and his thick mane is a close second. This, along with his large size, makes him an intimidating man- the opposite of what he would be, if someone chooses to speak to him.
Personality: A gentle giant; literally. Onyx, despite his large size, is the very definition of a protector. He's a pacifist, and doesn't care for the idea of having to fight, but he won't back away if it comes down to it. Which, in that case, would be the scenario of his family being threatened. Otherwise, he's quietly set in his ways and beliefs, even with the newcomers to the land. The only thing that may be stronger than that are his desires to find his fated; he's a family orientated man at heart, and the idea of finding his Fated is a dream to him.
Trades: Paladin and Nurse maid

Enki Nesryn aka "En"
-- Lord of the Mountain --
OutlawPaladin or BarbarianPaladin
Dabbles in Medic and Cleric

personality
He is similar to his pale twin in his honesty and dedication to carrying the Nesryn House. He agrees with Liara's choice to bring their family from the heart of their mountain and spread their wings once more. This doesn't mean he's any more trusting of the outsiders Maua opened their land to, the echoes and whispers of happenings upon the wind make him more doubtful. He is even more wary of native x non-native relationships. The only thing certain to him is the children born of these pairings should be protected, even if half-blooded. May internally side-eye the natives who choose outsider partners. Outsiders will be met with cool neutrality while natives (such as the Valours) will be regarded warmly. Wavering his opinion on this will be difficult. Many actions will be thought through first. He is part of the future of his House and has no intentions of jeopardizing that for any reason. He may toss himself into battle for the purpose of protecting another with little hesitation. His Fated is not his top priority, whomever that may be, for his duty comes first.

Finds small joys in walking through fresh snow, meditating on cliff ledges, and offerings to Maua.

appearance
Colossal build made to look even larger with his thick and long coat. He's a pale shadow on the snowy mountainside. His strong facial structure is painted over with an even darker mask that softens at the edges to blend into his base coat. Each onyx iris is underlined by paler ink. His pointed ears are darkly capped. His thick mane several shades darker than the rest of him. Each sturdy forelimb is wrapped neatly in socks topped with a darker set. A broad black saddle settles over a strong back. His bobbed tail tipped in black as well. Addition of longer claws and slitted pupils.
