SUMMER

Angkar: Wet season. Precipitation is common during the late afternoon and evening hours. Vegetation grows significantly during the summer, but flooding is a danger due to the monsoons that ravage the country. The rainforest sees evenly distributed rainfall throughout the season.

Ashoka: Desert: Extremely hot and dry. Violent, heavy downpours following long dryspells. Jungle: Hot and humid with frequent, violent rainstorms.

Morrim: Relatively hot and dry, but with a chance of thunderstorms from time to time. The heat may cause forest fires.

Soto: Hot and humid, tree cover is dense while ground growth is restricted. Thunderstorms see the most amount of rainfall during the season, and it can be very windy. On occasion, there are flash floods that can destroy homes and farms built on flood plains.

WHAT IS ELENLOND?

Elenlond is an original free-form medieval fantasy RPG set on the continent of Soare and the Scattered Isles, which are located to the south in the Sea of Diverging Waters. The four chief nations of the western side of the world—Ashoka in northern Soare, Soto in western Soare, Morrim in eastern Soare, and Angkar, the largest of the Scattered Isles—continue to experience growth and prosperity since the fall of the Mianorite gods, although power struggles within the countries—or outside of them—continue to ensue.

  • CURRENT EVENTS

    Angkar: To honour the reinvigoration of the ancient city of Mondrágon, the majestic Queen Eulalia has permitted the opening of a Coliseum where people from around the world and all walks of life can test their combat skills against one another. Many have already done battle in search of honour, glory, prizes and money.

    Ashoka: In an otherwise peaceful times, Ashokans are beset with the relatively minor inconveniences of wandering undead and occasionally-aggressive giant rock worms. There has also been some controversy over the recent re-legalisation of human sacrifice.

    Morrim: Rumour has it that Emperor Leofric de Hollemark is mustering forces for a war. Though the threat from Soto’s forests has passed, the forces previously employed in watching the forest now linger at the border. Rumours also circulate of a small group that has been dispatched to make contact with the tribes of the Do’suul Mountains.

    Soto: The Sotoans have defeated the fey and liberated themselves from Méadaigh’s oppression! Preliminary efforts have been made at rebuilding the city of Madrid, which had been captured at the beginning of the war. However, the Sotoans are hindered from recovery famine. Méadaigh’s magic caused summer to persist in the Erth’netora Forest through the winter. Her power has been withdrawn and the plants die as if preparing for winter – even though it is now summer. The Sotoans must sustain off what food they can get, what creatures they can kill and what can be imported into the city from Morrim and Angkar.

    ELENLOND'S BIRTHDAY BASH~

    Kestrel Sumner
    And then she was gone, her hips swinging as the knives jostled her thighs, passing by guards with her head held high, a haughty smile upon her lips.

    The big day has finally arrived. As of today (at exactly 2:25 PM) Elenlond will have officially reached its very first birthday~

    [size=14]HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELENLOND!~[/size]

    I remember creating the username for the site and I remember creating the forums and leaving them blank, and I remember all of the help that I received. The effort that each and every member has put into it is absolutely stunning, and I do not think it would ever have flourished if not for the combined efforts of both the administration and the members, who make this place alive. It is you - all of you - who makes it what it is. Without activity, ideas, and suggestions it would not be what it is, and for that I thank you all.

    To the administrators: Thank you for hanging on. Thank you for being here, both physically and mentally, even when you were laden with work. Thank you for trying your hardest, for helping to make what it is now, for creating your areas and building colourful Kingdoms. Thanks for being here, and for not abandoning it as some may or would have done.

    To the members: Thank you for Rping here, for giving input. For telling friends, for making it what it is today. Your suggestions are forever accepted gratefully, although I may not show it. Thank you for making Elenlond a brighter place.

    To everyone as a whole: Thank you for putting up with me. I know I'm difficult. I'm far from perfect, but I try. Thanks for putting up with the rants, the spasms. It means a lot to me - truly.

    With that said, let's continue. Besides Elenlond's birthday, we have another! Our God of Light has turned seventeen today, and the realization of this did not hit me till about two weeks ago. Interesting coincidence, I must say. Anyway, without further adieu...

    [size=14]Happy birthday, Alex~[/size]

    May you have a fantastic day today, and that your wishes come true~ Or, that you receive what you have been yearning for~

    MmmMmmMmm, I received some very interesting ideas via PM from various members, one of which is a plot. I know some of you have been waiting patiently, so I hope you really enjoy it. I have absolutely no control over it, so it should be a surprise to most of us. Once Eragol has it up I'll post the link.

    Oh! Aymara came up with a wonderful idea pertaining to langauge. I'll leave it up to her to describe it, unless she does not post by the end of today, in which case I will relay what I have of it and allow her to go in depth at a later time.

    Ah, if you haven't noticed already (which I hope you have), Elenlond has a new skin! Mm I made it with the trusty help of the skinning support at Invision, as well as Photoshop 7.0 and PaintShop Pro 7.0. I really hope that it looks all right - I wasn't really sure. I can make changes and whatnot, though I'm reluctant to change certain elements. If it doesn't work, it's slow loading, or something of that nature, contact me (either by MSN, Yahoo, email, my LJ, etc) and I'll either try and fix it, or impliment the original skin that Sphynx did. Hope it looks all right, though!

    Oh yes, I'm disabling the skin changer. It's taking up a lot of space, and with the new layout it'll probably be a nuissance. If people were using it and whatnot, please inform me and I can put it back up again.

    There may be new codes showing up, or changes being made. I tell you this only because I don't want it to come as a shock or something.

    Anyway! Have fun, chat, enjoy yourselves XD This thread is for open chat and whatnot, so feel free to be random. Enjoy~

    I am very sick XD Well, not very but I could make it out to be that way >.>; Blech. My allergies + chores/dust do not mix.

    XD Alrighty Aya.

    I'm not sure what I'll be doing. I might be going to a friend's house for three of four hours for a party of sorts, permitting that my allergies lay off and I figure out where he lives and I find out of Kit is going or not. Blech. I want to but I don't...

    XD I can understand everything but the spork there, Eragol.

    Speaking of which! [size=7]Invasion[/size] is up! So, go post >.>; This is the plot that's been in wait for ages, and it is run by Eragol. So~ I'll post later, but I'm waiting to see if anyone else will before me. If not, then I guess I'll concoct something XD

    >.>; Anybody who has not read Sabriel, Lirael, or Abhorsen should go read them now. Beautiful series~

    Am running off of six hours of sleep or less so >.>; Yes.

    *glomps Shadow* You know I love you ! Thank you for getting this site up and running, for putting in the hours of work all the time, for rping with me when I'm here, and not being mad at me when I'm gone. You are the best thing that could have possibly happened to this site, and were it not for you... won't even go there.

    Happy Birthday, my dear Elenlond. Since I joined around this time on the original Mianor, I guess this is my second anniversary of rping with you guys. How time flies when you're having fun.

    Happy birthday, Alex ! May you have tonnes of cake, oodles of presents, and many smiles ! *hugs*

    ok i'm a bit better now so i'll give the basic gist of my language idea!

    i was watching some thing about happy potter and they where going on about parsel tounge and house they hand to leanr it and how it was created etcetcetc, and i remebered another site that did the same, and it was te way elvish was created and bla bla blah.

    so what i did i got the alphabete and made a different sound for letter, so when you type somthing u are still using english language just with different sounds.

    erm i eed shadow to send my example back to me, bt cause i'm asain it sounds like it too so i need a little help and inspiration!

    i want it to be more than just my idea!

    *coughs* I have a few things to point out to you all ^^ But they're all things that are either good, or will get me slapped.

    1.)This is the 1 year b-day of Elenlond, and around this time of year is the time when we, at least the older members, met nearly 2 years ago.

    2)WHOOT 17 ALREADY! Happy b-day buddy. Gotten that darned drivers license yet, like your momma told you to? ^^'

    3)Look at it this way....if it weren't for me, Elenlond wouldn't exist. I should get some credit for deleting Mianor, which in turn created Elenlond cause none of you wanted to get seperated...and I was a dumb butt and denied it....and...and..and...I'm done now

    Thanks everybody~ I'm having a pretty nice birthday. I went out to dinner with my parents this evening, and they let me go into the bookstore and spend excessive amounts of money on anime DVD's, a GBA game, and some licorice. XP I'm good and set for the next several days, I'd say.

    Happy B-day to Elenlond! Why I remember when it was just a few plain strands of HTML. Yes, they sure grow up fast. Seems like it was only yesterday that- *prattles on for hours*

    Mmm I'll send it over next time I talk to you, Aya, or I'll post it here or something.

    On July 7 I will have met a fair group of the members for the first time on Mianor, which was two years ago. Gosh, it's been so long @.@

    Very valid point, lol. Indeed, had you not deleted the site and sent most of the intact members into a berserk rage, Elenlond would not have been born from the anarchy that had ensued.

    I would say Elenlond is a she, since most objects (cars, vessels) tend to be dubbed she. So... I vote Elenlond is a she XP

    *Sniffs* Way back when, lol.

    :\ I can't appease everyone. There was a reason I did this brighter skin, but since my reason was not reinforced, I'm at a loss now. Quite frankly my favourite part of it are the two headers - the one with the sun and the fading one beneath it. I could try and do another skin of a different colour, but not everything will work X.x

    [size=14]HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JAIDA~~~[/size]

    Hope you have an awesome sixteenth birthday~ May you receive all that you desire.

    Thank you ! I had a lovely day today. The funny thing is that I actually feel a difference from yesterday. I don't usually with birthdays, but I guess 16 is special. : )

    I would join your Invasion, but I have no idea what is going on, or what is expected of me. So, until I am given further instructions, I'll just hide in the corner...

    XD Mmmm I wonder if my sixteenth birthday will seem or feel different from all the rest.

    Lol Jay, just post XD I don't think anything is expected of anyone. You could always use Renata or Nuala for this, and leave Jay on the back burner, like I'm doing with Shadow.

    *spazzes* I missed Elenlond's birthday! And Alex's! And most of Jaida's! No!

    Well, it's late, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELENLOND! Hope to stick around to wish it well again for year number two!

    And HAPPY SEVENTEEN ALEX! Hope you had a nice b-day and that seventeen turns out well.

    Happy birthday Jaida! Welcome to sixteenhood!

    And I like bright skins. Or at least ones that aren't dark and gloomy. Dark ones make me feel sleepy and not want to post. Red and black may be romantic, but it's murder on your eyes and does not appeal to the general public. Colors are good for your brain and dark on light is good for your eyes.

    I'll join the plot... just not tonight. It is late and I want to go to bed.

    Hehe. Good to know, Kii Chan. I have no idea what to call you, but you shall always have the name rightfully blocked on this site to me.
