You have chosen a bad time for your visit. The realm bleeds as it has never bled before. In the north, the Emperor has died, leaving the dogs to squabble and fight over the remains of his kingdom. They have taken control of the East, giving it to a traitor and savage. In the west, the Crouching Tiger is growing bolder by the day. In the south, the old kings of Dheynor still weave their plots and make castles in the air. Nothing is going as it should.
And it does not end there. There are bad tidings from outside, too. I have heard the sailors talk about how the traders of Enden are starting to crave our land. You're not from Enden, are you? Good, good. And I hear the Prince in Chreina is starting to make his move too. These are distubed times, young traveler.
You still wish to stay? Well, you're braver than me, I'll give you that. Come to Dheynor, but blame me not if you do not make it out again.

The North struggles to come out of the shadows of the eclipse. In East Dheynor, enemies prowl like direwolves, waiting to strike. In Sioure the Kings revel and hide behind masks, unwilling to face the bleak reality of an army on their shores. In the West, rituals cloud the sudden stagnation that has hit the once empowered nation. Chreina prepares for Gods and fire - Enden attacks with gold and plague...
...And somewhere, a mad old Rajegh King holds a Meet.
Chreina:Its getting quite cold in the Northern most regions of Chreina. Light storms are common.
North, North West, North East: The temperature is starting to get chilly. Freak storms are common.
South, South West, South East: The temperature is getting lower, with higher humidity than normal.
Enden Isles: The temperatures are moderate but it can get very chilly in the nights.
Year 43 by the Imperial Reckoning. Months of Derash, Lekhna, Jash.
Our Member of the Month for this month is a tie between MayPex and Kiba! MayPex is our friendly neighbourhood dolphin. He's always available to RP with you and is also always fun to talk to on the c-box. He's fun, sweet, and a great asset to the site - he's seen it through thick and thin. He plays a number of interesting characters that range from exiled knights to housecarls that add a lot of depth to many plots.
This is the second time Kiba is winning this award and its not difficult to know why. Kiba is a very gentle, sweet person - always ready to open up and be friendly and help anyone who comes on the site. She can also juggle an impressive number of characters that range from northern generals to southern kings - she's probably the only person who has a character everywhere!
Good work, guys!
Our Character of the Month is Kayla of Crysis. She started off as an assassin's missing sister, went on to become the lady-in-waiting for arguably the most poisonous snake on Dheynor. She's blackmailed Kings and kissed Queens - and no matter what she does, she remains lovable and hilarious. She, and her dragon Sesk, have a very unique bond and magical talent that is delightfully explored by Lowe. She's one of the most fun characters to interact with and can wriggle into a number of plots.
Congratulations, Lowe!
Our Newbie of the Month is Aelen! She plays Aelen Ithialcor, a newly made Queen of Rosford who really doesn't fit in - but Aelen herself fits perfectly into Dheynor. Her sweetness has made her very popular and she's always been there for everyone on the site. Of course, at this point I'd add in a sneaky little shout-out to Anandar, because as she told me once - there's no one without the other. Congratulations!
We have the The Riot as our thread of the month.
The Riot was part of our Eclipse Festival. A religious riot sparked off by natural phenomena and thoughtless comments led to an explosive situation that was a turning point for many characters who had to fight for both survival and belief, for duty and for love. Mobs were razed down, loyalties were questioned, and the senate got its first chance to become a force for the future.
And Dheynor will never be the same again.
To celebrate six whole months of Dheynor, we've decided to institute some pretty special awards! Here's to the people who've made this journey so memorable!
Member Awards:Most Wacky in Cbox: Foglegs! Click for some extracts!Most Likely to Make You Cry (in a good way): A three-way tie between Des, Nadia and Spaz. Click here for a thread where all three get together to achieve that aim!

Always escaping death: Alana and Levan. Here's a recent narrow miss!
Most Likely to be Eaten by a Dragon: Well, Lord Ingvar Tadashi of course! Click here to guess at why!
Most Likely to Cause a War: Well, if it isn't Ajax Ironhand, our hot-headed High King of Enden. Look at what he's been upto.
Most Likely to Sleep with the Enemy: The common consensus claims she already has. Thank the gods he's dead now, though.
Most Likely to Burn Down a Village: Surprisingly enough, its our ice queen, Valestia. Now isn't that strange!
Most Likely to Crack an Ill-Timed Sex Joke: Does it surprise anyone that this is Aranion's dragon Chezaa? Levan is not surprised.
Writing:Best IC line: Was shared between the following two wonderful lines.
"If they ever carried out a census of Siourean lands Cotan suspected one of the most common occupations would be 'King'."
""Your soon to be husband...he...took a nasty tumble while in Thegym."
Best Storyteller Post: It appears Finn's post takes that credit. Check it out! Best NPC: Lord Isaac's skull. I think that is all that needs to be said.
Paired Awards:Best Pair: Wolfezth Deraine and the bottom of a lake. It probably shows either how bad our romances are or how hilarious we are. Judge for yourself .

Character Applications This is where you can post your character applications, using the simple form provided by us. Make sure to wait for us to accept it and move your application to accepted applications before you start roleplaying.
Accepted Characters (8 sub-boards) This is where your application will be moved once it has been accepted by a staff member. Once this happens, you're ready to start roleplaying! Your application will be retained here for reference should you ever need it.
Character Extras (5 sub-boards) In this board, you can find all the other things your character might need - plotting with other characters, or character requests. You can also find the Scenario Board inside, where characters can go on pre-determined adventures together.
This is where you can roleplay in all the locations of North Dheynor, including but not limited to the royal court of the Emperor, the majestic Baraf Mountains, the beautiful northern plains, and the mysterious north-west desert.
South Dheynor is a beautiful place to live in, and an exciting place to roleplay in. Separated by the rest of Dheynor by the Uncha Peaks, it is a secluded, quiet place, known for its wildlife, and the pleasures and comforts of its cities.
This is where you can find the western part of Dheynor. The grassland region is hard to cultivate, but the natural deposits found here have made the region fairly prosperous. It is efficiently and effectively ruled by the Crouching Tiger.
East Dheynor is mostly made of highlands and a large lake. It is known for its scenic views and great temperature, thanks to the prominent water bodies found here. All of this area is under the control of Lady Marei, though armies are gathering at the borders to capture this area.
Dheynor, despite the fact that is occupies a large part of the continent, does not make up the entire continent. To its north lies Chreina, a huge country that has been expanded by the conquests of the current prince, and to the east lies the island nation of Enden.
A mad Rajegh King who still thinks he rules all of Dheynor. Competitions with glory and coin to be won. Fun, food, and wine. And a respite from the war.
