August 2010
August 13 - A new skin has been created, or at least added. It was one that I had created before we decided we wanted Bondi Blue for the skin, so it was easy enough to just transfer it. It was the skin that I had originally decided I was going to use, but instead we created an entirely new skin for the revamp. Hope you enjoy it. - Sway -

Other Information: Hello my furry minions!So I guess you want to know a bit about me? Well, as you know, I am your original site creator, Sway! I enjoy much out of life and could go on for hours about my likes and dislikes, but that would be generic and to be honest, boring, yes? So instead, I will indulge in some more obscure and random ideas of talk... if only I could think of some right now. I have a parasite growing inside me that likes to kick and play xylophone on my rib-cage, as well as catch me by surprise. He likes to pretend he's an alien by moving inside my stomach, giving the impression that he plans to burst though it at any moment. I've fondly given him a name, which is Rowan Arturius Rau, because if he ever does burst through, I plan to keep him, perhaps as a pet. For now, this is what I will leave you with, but be sure to check often, as the random ideas that pop into my mind are endless and you never know what new things I might wish to talk about!

Info: First thing you need to know, is that Punk is a ninja. At this very moment she's watching you read this, and had you not read that while you read she's watching, you would have no idea that while reading she's watched you red. Red, blue, yellow...Punk's favorite primary colors, but her favorite colors of all have to be magenta and deep blue! Blew! Punkeh blew out candles on her cake this year (you missed the party, you owe her a present!) but how old is Punkeh? No one really knows. No's! Punk hands out no's when you break the rules, but she also hands out advice and prods in the behind in the right direction. Need a help with a no? Let Punkeh know, she'll help you out and make everything awesome! Awesome, might as well mean ninja, cuz that's what Punkeh is, is a ninja. Haven't you been paying attention?

Greetings, I am Imaginatio, known to everyone upon this site as Tio (Because it is much easier to type ^^) I am an Admin of this lovely site and also the Contest Leader! So if you'd like to host a contest, I'm your wolf!
A little bit about me. Well for starters, I'm British. I live in the little island of the UK, where I am currently a University student studying a combined Honours in Creative Writing and Drama Studies. I love Roleplaying, Writing, Drawing and Acting. I also read a lot and can be quite...hyper.
I have several characters on Aelyn, a wide mix of personalities and a few crazies here and there, but they aren't my only characters. As a budding writer I have many fully formed characters and little fledgling ideas of characters in mind, an armadillo, a fish-boy and a schizophrenic eight year old to name but a few!
If you have any questions, or you'd like to know a little more about me you can PM me and I'll be happy to try and answer them!

Other Information: Greetings, cupcakes!
I am Celestic, or Donny. I don’t mind if people use my username or my real name. Talking about myself like this isn’t something I do often, nor is it something I think about so I’m going to be concise and to the point with what I have to say.
Anyway, as most of you have noticed I am an administrator here on Aelyn, and the co-site creator of the former Mystified Realm forum that eventually evolved into this phenomenal place. As for the real person behind the wolves…I am a 4th year college student studying Creative Writing and Cultural Anthropology, yay for spending excess amounts of money on education! Hopefully I’ll get a good job and make lots of money!
If you have any questions pertaining to the forum, or myself, shoot a PM and I’ll answer! This will probably be updated from time to time.

17 May 2010
The Mountains have been rather quiet lately. What's stirring to the North? Could it be that the lands are anticipating what is to come? Has Lucid made a mark and set out to repeat a history he has already lived in the past? No one really seems to know what the large brute's current plans are for sure, save for a select few. Even those few who do know seem to be keeping their mouths quiet at the moment. For what purpose is this eerie calm that has spread its thick fingers in the North? Perhaps only time will tell. Wolves seem to still converge at this point, requesting acceptance to the lands with temporary Alpha's. And what was with Baztek? His brief appearance seemed to have jostled and even unnerved both of Lucid's pups... where will this lead in the large brutes ultimate plans?
17 May 2010
Cindershock has finally given birth to two wonderful pups. Sadly, the third pup that was born was still born. While this has saddened the young Alphen pair, Cindershock and Zephyr, their hearts and minds remain strong for the pack and for their two newborn wolves. Masina, having helped deliver the pups, is saddened, but remains strong for the pack as well, especially with what stir her brother has caused in the lands of Aelyn. With Cinder and Zephyr's new born pups, the Waterfall packlands are on edge more so than most others.
17 May 2010
Lucid has come to greet the newly founded Alphess of the lands of the Toko Forest. What purpose does his treading upon her lands serve? No hostility has been shown, so perhaps his words he speaks are true? Is he really there just to meet her and to learn about the other Alphas, like what should have been done in the past? With no Sacred Circle meetings, none of the Alpha's truly know one another. Is this what Lucid is doing or does he have more hidden motives? And what about the other pack members? This is by far the largest pack in Aelyn, so what motives could Lucid have aside from a friendly conversation?
17 May 2010
Things have been fairly quiet in these lands, much like the Mountains. Is it because these are the only wolves that know what kind of power Lucid is really wielding? Lydia, one of their more unique pack members, so to speak, has told the pack the basics, aside from Kerrigan and Zephora of course, who know everything that Lucid has become. What will the Marshland Wolves do with this knowledge? Keep it to themselves or share it with the other packs? Both options have their merits, but surely one idea outweighs the other? Time is of the essence.
In these lurid lands, all packs keep to themselves. The once-ways of the alphas meeting under the guidance of the Ancestors have been long forgotten. But whether or not the gods have forgotten these lands, or are simply letting the mortals go their separate ways is unclear. The strongest pack of the lands is the northern Misuteriasu Mountain pack. Led by a powerful brute and his mate, the subordinate count reaches the skies. They have all been drawn to the lands by the essence of power that radiates from the strong leadership. Lucid, their alpha, is both one to be feared and respected. He and his mate, Mira, both wear mysterious collars that seem to radiate as much power as both of them combined. After acquiring these collars, Lucid randomly attacked the Nigori Marshlands, specifically the wolf Lydia - a vampire. In her own defense she bit him, creating something even more powerful than what was before. Taking advantage of his new-found strength and immortality, Lucid claimed the Kumori Plains as his own, doubling his expanse of territory. The free lands exist no more. All wolves who call themselves loners must either acknowledge Lucid as their alpha, or find another home; for if Lucid is denied, their lives are the cost. This brute's intentions are clear: all the lands will soon belong to him and the Misuteriasu Mountain pack. The packs of other lands are shaken by this. And even though the alphas called meetings of their own members, they have yet to communicate with one another. None but the wolves of Nigori know Lucid's true strength. Even if another pack were to stand up to him, their fates would be sealed.

Prey has begun to show its furry little faces once more as the snow melts and the sun begins to shine more often. Rainy weather brings new life to all areas of Aelyn and flowers begin to dapple the lands once more, bringing color to the previously barren terrains.

Misuteriasu Mountains
As spring falls into the Mountains, the snow begins to melt, though the highest peaks never lose the white blanket that covers them. Prey begins to run around, though as usual, the prey is the least abundant here due to the high altitudes, though the occasional mountain goat is found and food enough for the entire pack. The hot springs begin to fill more and steam as a dense fog falls all around the mountains, creating a shield and a cover for wolves who are unable to use their other senses to see through the dense cloud cover. This also proves to be treacherous for any wolves who are not careful, leading to cliffs where an unsuspecting wolf could just as easily step off the edge into a death below should they not watch their step.
Fukai WaterfallsThe waterfalls have begun to melt as the torrents cascade faster and faster with each passing day. Prey flourishes in the lands as the water and the lake unthaw from the heavy winter. Ice and slush join the raging and flowing waterfall as the snows from the higher parts of the mountains begin to cause the river to flood ever so slightly, causing the waterfall to flow more fluidly and dangerously than before. The water temperature is still ice cold from the cold water that runs from the mountains, creating a soothing drinking supply for all waterfall wolves.
Toko ForestAs spring rolls in, color begins to return to the lands of the forest. The trees begin to grow green buds on them, bringing new life to the lands in the never-ending cycle that the forest always goes through. Prey is beginning to wake from their deep slumbers and rain is beginning to fall to bring more green to the canopies and to the lands, so the underbrush can begin to flourish once more.
Nigori MarshlandsThis almost tropical climate begins to heat up and warm up, flooding in many places as the river runs faster. Prey wakes from its hibernation and moves with grace over the lands gathering food for their small families. The air is dense with a light moisture as the weather gets warmer and warmer, causing the climate to be slightly more humid than the other lands, though still nothing compared to summertime.
