January 29, 2009 - I've gone through and aged all the horses that were accepted before January 28th one year. January 28th was the close of our first game year.

CHARACTER ADOPTION AGENCY This is where you can post characters you don't want to play anymore so that other members can take them off your hands. Please check here before creating a new character; there might be one you want to take on. This is not the place for foal auditions, there is a seperate board for that. However, if you play someone's foal and don't want to anymore, post an ad in here and not the foal auditions board. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

CANON AUDITIONS Come here to audition to be one of the canon horses. The canon horses are horses that have important roles in the threadwork of our site, so it's important the roles get filled fast. Read the Canon section in the rules to learn more about playing them, and if you want to play one, make a thread in here telling which one you are auditioning for and post a 400 minimum word post in character to try out.

THE STRAIT OF ALQUILO The water in this thin sliver of sea is crystal clear, and is said to have mystical properties. This is only a legend, however, and the only magical part of this area is the warm sand, clear water, and meeting of lovers. This is, ritually, where lone mares come to be claimed by stallions. Watch out, though, because some stallions don't take no for an answer. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

THE GARDEN OF ARITHMATIS Here, new life blossoms in every direction. This valley is safe from the snows of winter and the bitter winds of autumn. It is sheltered from the blazing heat of summer and the spring storms. Flowers bloom year round in colorful clusters, and the grass grows waist high. This is the place where lovers come to create new life of their own. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

WINDING IVY CLIFF This is a safe cove just below a small set of cliffs. A wide, sturdy trail leads down a gentle slope; the water of this small bay is clear and only puddle deep, wonderful for little colts and fillies to take their first swimming lessons. Ivy winds up the sides of the elegant cliffs, and there is plentiful grass on an uprise just up the shore. Mares come here to give birth; stallions are allowed only with their mares to aid them.

HEVANDRA'S HAVEN FOR WANDERING SOULS This is a small wood south of the strait; it's grasses are lush and dewey, and the sweet smell of pine surrounds you as you enter a small clearing. Nettles and twigs crunch satisfyingly beneath your hooves, and you can hear the small nickers of foals as they frolic through the trees under the watchful eye of Hevandra. She is the care-taker of the abandoned foals; will you take one into your care? Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

THE ASPEN HOLLOW The ground underfoot is hard and packed down; the smell of earth is strong, rooted deep in the air. Many have fallen and trodden over the hollow, surrounded by trees that stand tall, their branches bare and their trunks bending with the strife of old age. Here is where horses come to fight for pride, mares, and land. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

THE HEALING SPRINGS OF ASTRAEUS This is a secluded spot near the rocky foothills of the northern mountains where warm springs bubble up through the cracks and gaps in the granite. The waters are dark and murky, almost foreboding, but the mare who watches over the springs and the wounded horses who come for help is the opposite. With a coat of gleaming ivory she invites you in, mixes a few herbs, and his you feeling better in no time at all. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

THE CAVES OF ADVENTURERS This is a system of caves toward the peak of the northern mountains that overlooks the strait. Within its walls dwells the keeper of quests himself, Apollo. He is a quiet, brooding stallion; some say he is over a century old. One thing everyone agrees on, though, is his judge of character; go with your head held high and respect in your eyes, tell him what you wish to receive, and if he believes in the purity of your character, he will give you a task to complete in exchange.

THE MEADOW OF THIEVES This wide open plain is full of golden grasses that sway under a light breeze. The sun shimmers on your back, the sky open and cloud free, clear as a cryystal. Here, stallions and mares alike come to steal things away from others using a riddle. Though stealing may not be regarded very highly among horses, it is recognized among the gods, and is just as noble as fighting. Stealth is just as impressive as overt strength.

THE REFUGE OF THEZRA This valley is guarded by tightly knit trees. Horses of all races know of its power, but within its walls, peace reigns. The opening will only reveal itself to those in need. Often, herds take shelter here when a disaster has struck in their homeland. The gods watch over this place carefully; be careful you don't make them cross with you.

SHORE GLASS CREEK This creek cuts jaggedly through a small grassland sheltered ina ll directions by rolling hills. It is often hot, and there is a lack of shade, but most bachelors newly kicked out of their herd find shelter here until they can begin their own band or get their own land.

NOX This is the land of night, located at the eastern base of the northern mountains. The ground is craggy and rocky underfoot, not fit for those who aren't extremely sure-footed. A brooke flows over rock slippery smooth with time, and across the bank grows a plentiful patch of grass. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

EOS This is the land of the dawn. Through the trees overhead the sun peeks through, sending dapples onto the forest floor. Nettles and small forest blossoms push through the tangle of scrub grass and lush, dewey sweet grasses. Down the slope has collected a small pool of rainwater, and over it's mirror-like surface has sprouted water lilies and cowslips. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

SOL This is the land of the sun. A long plain of savannah grass, the land is rough and unkempt; golden grasses dot its surface like liquid gold, swaying unde the touch of the breeze, reaching up to sparkle beneath the rays of light. It is warm, almost unbearably warm, and the few cypress trees that dot the plain offer litle to no shade. It is not a place for the sensitive. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

LUN The terra of the moon. The cove is dull, charcoal grey during the daytime. The sound of the waves crashing aganst the sandy shore is ever-present, and the crabgrass that grows along the higher shore is salty and tangy. At night, the full moon shines its reflection upon the black waves. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |

REGAL TWILIGHT HILL This is where horses who are no longer on mortal turf may meet with the still living and give them advice and talk to them, maybe catch up a bit. Beware, though, it is not good to exist in the past. Horses have often become addicted to seeing their loved ones again, and have driven themselves mad with visits here.

THE BANDS OF THE AFTERLIFE After death, horses lose their mortal, feuding ways. All is peaceful and lovely in the herds of the deceased, but that doesn't mean they don't stick to old traditions. Just as you had a band in your life, you may always collect horses in the afterlife to join your family. Don't become too power hungry, though -- there's only one place to go if you get kicked out of these pearly gates. Forum Led by: Apiata, ~*~chance~*~, Rave |
