Welcome to Battle for Areel. This is site where we roleplay mythical creatures, dragons, humans, and many more creatures, fantasy and realistic. Anyone is welcome to join. Our site is now reaching completion. We roleplay three different kingdoms as well as eight extra lands outside the kingdoms. We are very welcoming to new members, and if you have any more questions about the site, refer to one of our staff members.
It is now winter in Areel. The water is ice cold and it snows nearly every day, the snow never melting. Icicles have formed on the eaves of buildings and homes, and the ground is slippery to walk on. Young people are once again skating across the thick ice of lakes and ponds (although they do alot of falling, too).
For one-hundred years, Areel has been peaceful. No wars have ravaged the land, and none have went hungry. But with the death of the late Queen Miraka, the three princesses, Nyra, Reed, and Snow, began to feud over the throne. A year ago, the war ended with Nyra as the next queen.
But Reed and Snow had always remained angry with their sister. They believed the throne belonged to them. Lady Reed was the first sister to take action. Demanding an audiance with Nyra, she declared herself the ruler. Nyra and Reed fought valiantly. Nyra was barely scratched by Reed's silver dagger, but the dagger had been laced with dragon-blood poison. General Echo rescued the queen, quickly delivering her to the sympathetic Shonen queen, Rukia.
Nyra is now healed, and together with Queen Rukia, the former Head of Guard Grys, former General Echo, a dragon, and a faerie, she is making plans to take the throne back from Queen Reed, who is unaware that Nyra is even alive. In the background of things is Lady Snow, who is forming her own plans. Not to mention the fact that their is an unknown fourth sister who has the same intentions.
Will this sibling rivalry cause a triple-- or maybe even a quadruple-- sided war? If a war does begin and one sister manages to defeat the three others, will there even be a kingdom left to rule?
All will be decided in the Battle for Areel. Choose your characters' side, but use great caution. Should you ally them with the wrong sister, they may not come out of the war alive.

Castle (8 sub-boards) A beautiful castle with four walls surrounding it. Guard towers stand on each corner of the walls. Marble columns circle around the center, with a large tower shooting up into the sky, which is the tallest building in the kingdom and is an easily recognizable landmark.
Forest inside the kingdom (2 sub-boards) A forest where many creatures make their homes. Tall maple trees stand all around with birch trees blended in. There is a dark side where the sun never shines, inhabited by evil beings. Not many dare to go there. Then there is a light side, which is a normal forest, and provides much of the game on the villagers' tables.

Nalhri Marshes You don't want to get caught out here at night. The ghosts and evil beings will not miss a chance to get you. It is a dark and desolate place. Witches live on various islands which are spread throughout the marsh. Many say the marsh has hidden treasure, but none know where, or what. There are trees, but they are few are far between. Mostly patches of mud and water.

The Dark Forest This forest is huge. It lets in absolutly no light. People often wonder in, never to come out. Though bodys are sometimes seen hanging from the tree limbs. This forest describes the Shonenians telltale cold hearts. Trees that have no name live here. Don't get too close, I highly advise it.
