Happy 2021 to all! Big thank you for hanging out and being awesome for the first two-ish months of the site. It's been fun so far, looking forwards to a lot this year! If you haven't seen, after a delay, the last day of the advent can be claimed now (here). You have three choices for your last advent prize including a second chance at a creature pass. That's right we have creatures coming to Aesseldar now! Be sure to check the announcement for any rule clarifications if you're interested. Last big bit of news we do have our light layout "in the mist" ready to be used. There will still be tweaks and color changes coming in the next week or so by the fantastic dusk so don't be afraid if things look a little different.

Congratulations to Zay for winning the pride raffle with Runar! Welcome our new pride, Adamo Autumna! Don't forget to keep posting in the advent to claim your awesome prizes, and within the next few days you'll see some additional posts cropping up in the ooc areas. We'd love some feedback on the site and will be adding an area for feedback and suggestions. We will also be adding a thread to post all your open threads. Another fantastic surprise is that Koafox (some of you may know her as Miranda from other sites) has said we are welcome to use their table switcher plugin. As soon as I get the files we will be integrating that into the site for everyone to enjoy!

TWO news posts back to back my oh my stuff must be brewing! We wanted to let everyone know that the third pride slot has opened. Unlike the other slots we wanted to give everyone a chance to go for it as well, so we'll be raffling it! In order to enter the raffle please DM an admin or the Eoin account with your OOC and which character you'd like to enter the raffle with. The only requirement that has to be met is that the character must be 2 years of age or older (meaning that number of posts and feathers doesn't matter). So get your entries in, the more the merrier as we head into the new year! The other exciting news is that our neutral/lighter colored layout will be out by the end of the year, thanks to the lovely dusk!

Thank you so much everyone for a fantastic first month opening. We wanted to thank you all and let you know that we've decided to extend the grand opening bonuses for one more week, so you can bring in your first three characters free through 12/11! In other news our first contests have started and we couldn't be more excited! You may participate in the following, if you haven't already partaken: Advent Calendar, Superlatives, Advertising Contest, OTMs, and the Writing Contests. We'll be releasing another update soon with some super fun surprises, but some of Eoin's events have drawn to an end and it appears some new boards may start popping up! Expect to see more of Eoin, as well as some adjustment to the event threads, for some of the future boards as well!

11/28/2020 Staff
As we bring another week to close we'd like to welcome everyone to participate in our first contest! The Advertising contest is up and provides some really great rewards, as well as participation rewards! Coming soon are the first set of OTMs and superlatives, a writing contest, a sneak peak at our more refined skills system, and a few other small updates. Happy weekend everyone!

With three new terrains open and a third pride staking a claim once more, our mischievous deity Eoin appears to be up to no good again. The quake that cracked open the mountain and closed it once more was felt around the lands, and three new terrains popped open. Tryphosa Shore now has an Atoll sub-board, and there is a Desert and a Rift board. Several more will be coming... but first Eoin will make an impression.

The rainforest trembles, as if fighting back against those who dare to occupy it. The lands of Aesseldar are still only half-tamed, unfettered and unwilling to give way to any aspiring King, any growing empire. And just as quick as King Barnabas came to lay claim to it did it begin to push back, forcing his fledgling pride out with an unforgiving downpour, and a bitter resentment of the creatures that dwell within. With one pride felled, it leaves the opportunity for another to rise from the ashes.

It happened on a hot, humid night. No one there to witness it. Somewhere, surely, it could be heard. The start of a crack. The sound vibrating from mountain top to valley dips. It was a long and dreadful noise. Somewhere in the mountains, somehow, one of the peaks had collapsed. An impassible tower of sharpened points- gone. Snow, with the hidden rocks from the destruction, slid down the slopes that were formed by ages. A wave of white forced outward to cover all below. At first it is still much too dangerous to traverse. But with time the new ground settles and with it comes- a pass. On the other side awaits a land untouched by the curious paws. The lands of Aesseldar have been revealved and somewhere down below three pridelands sit empty, awaiting for eager travelers to start staking their claims. Please refer to the grand opening announcement for information on how to claim a pride slot and fully customize it, since there are some grand opening bonuses or exceptions that are not referenced in the guidebook! We would also love to let everyone know that any official in-character news that gets posted in this "in-character" section of the layout is going to be considered common knowledge for any character in-game. Consider it like an in-character bulletin board! We will keep it updated with relevant and applicable information and hope it helps inspire your plots.

Spring Y11
With spring the clouds begin to disperse and the warmer weather begins and new life blooms. With new lands having been discovered there is a plethora of places for the lions to explore and yet somehow that mischievous site deity never seems to stop bringing the surprises, some of which include occasional inclement weathers. Temps varying between 45°-80°F (7°-27°C).

Amusement floods him as his jaws manage to grasp her left foreleg, in spite of the stinging to the sides of his head and neck. However amusement shifts to something else entirely as her jaws descend to lock upon the bridge of the upper portion of his muzzle... and she shakes.

Instinctively his head attempts to move along with her shaking motions in an effort to lessen tearing damage, but his jaws aim to remain locked on her limb as he does so - trying to give what he is getting so to speak. Her teeth easily slice into the relatively thinner flesh across the top of his muzzle tearing and bruising it. Claws on either side of his head remain in place, gouging deeper with each passing second. The scent of blood grows stronger and his need to feed grows with it.

Hunter attempts to place his forelegs to the ground briefly as the fire in his veins threatens to explode into an inferno....all consuming. Beyond the motions of his head and attempt to remain biting for a second, just a second...he goes otherwise deathly still.

The calm before the storm?

Her grasp succeeded, fangs closing around his muzzle with a violent shake- his own teeth managing to widen the punctures on her foreleg. The dark woman's body jolted, her legs becoming free as his own planted onto the ground, securing himself- supposedly. She released his maw, jerking back her own leg from his fangs, scuttling back to give some distance.

Her posture became a defensive one- she felt her unhealed previous wounds taking an exhausting toll on her body. She had been too busy recruiting and hunting, settling Ignis into a strong position to seek care... Proving herself a fool.

She crouched on her forelegs, silently wincing from the bleeding wounds decorating her left one. Her back legs stayed in an average position, her overall posture as if she were stretching in an odd way- if she had a tail, it would be lashing.

ooc: Permission given to grab the throat X3

IC:
No!

HIs prey was slipping away from him. Fangs release his muzzle.
This.,. May well have been a mistake.

Moving back, pulling back, sliding from his grasp.

The consuming fire inside refused to accept this. Refused to allow it. There is no further pause, no hesitation. He lunges forward on three legs, springing off his hind legs like pistons in pursuit of the black and bronze figure. Limbs bend slightly at the joints lowering his frame just slightly.

HIs head angles itself, crown tilting to his own right as wide open jaws seek and latch down on the silky black throat, on either side of the windpipe a couple inches bellow the lower jaw. Left leg lifts and seeks to swipe from his left to his right, aiming to drive against her right elbow, seeking to disrupt balance. The taste of blood in his mouth a haunting and glorious symphony.

'Temper temper son, a blow once landed, can not be undone.'

HIs father's voice, often repeated lessons and harsh training driving through the borderline murderous indent which had consumed him. A hair from snapping his jaws closed fully Hunter once more becomes completely still. One second, Two. His jaws slide slowly loose, salmon tongue seeking to draw across and upwards against formerly captured flesh as his head seeks to slowly trail upwards and aim to whisper with warm breath silkily in her ear.
"Mmmmm...rough enough for you?"

He was younger, yes. But an accomplished killer and cannibal. And anything but safe.

Volcans moment of defensive rest was brief, her fiery opponent launching himself at her, much like she had done in the beginning. The dark goddess attempted to scoot back, to force him to land on the ground before grabbing her, but instead her injured leg hindered her movement back- and jaws closed around her throat. She let out a wispy yelp, unsuspecting of the attack, wind escaping from her lungs and unable to go back in. Paws swiped her forelegs from beneath her, injured one already lifted form the ground, and she tumbled, the golden lion successfully toppling her to the ground.

She inhaled thankfully as his fangs finally loosened, the pleasant but stinging feeling of his rough tongue against the bloody shallow punctures taking their place. She huffed, tired from the energy exerting tussle, and licked dripping blood from the side of his muzzle, a broken purr vibrating through her body. "Quite~"

-oh he did always have that tendency to go for the throat-

But much to his own pleasure and satisfaction this was one of those times control had been regained because Hunter very much wished for this particular lioness to stick around for the foreseeable future.

Her blood was not as sweet as he was used to from a lion, but it had a certain richness that was unique and entirely pleasant. More a savory-sweet instead of candy sweet. Was this due to her unique appearance? Further investigation in the future would be called for. However for the moment Hunter knew something else was called for.

Volcan reached up and licked the blood from the lower portion of his mussel earning a deep vibrating purr which blended into a laughing rumble twoards the end. Yes indeed. She was interesting and fun. How did she find the taste he wondered? A lion who ate other predators tended to have richer more iron saturated blood.

"Mmmmmmm. Good. Lets go get you patched up shall we?" he chuckled and moved just slightly back, but remained close enough to try and brush against her lightly while heading twoards his den and the small tributary stream not far from it. Best get her cleaned and patched up...couldn't have her get killed due to injuries he inflicted now could he?

Despite the injuries adorning her fire jeweled frame, the goddess was content to feel Hunter's rough tongue against her wounds. Shen he finally stopped and moved back, it felt as if it were too soon. She hadn't ever felt quite so fond of a male- at all. Once she had a female lover. Whom she cared for deeply.... But she had gotten ill. It hurt to think of her, and they short time they had.

Volcan rolled over and stood, a purr from her own sore throat rumbling as she walked by his side after him, barely a hairs length away. "You are too generous, my king~" she chuckled.
