3 things I am grateful for: 1. Ralph 2. Ralph 3. Thermal underwear And a bonus 4th, a slightly tidier living room. The sofa has now gone to the big living room in the sky. We had a ceremony, said a pray, play a selection of clips The Simpsons sofa and put a plaque in the garden as a mark of respect. #gratitude #gratitudeattitude #dog #sofa #dogsofinstagram #dogstrustbasildon #dogstagram #doggo #doglover #run #icerun #running #runningmotivation #runningcommunity #runners #dogadoption https://www.instagram.com/p/CmPIPoMIlez/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A little drawing of the local menace that meandered from the forests of Darkspine—a.k.a. Dox!

Orrin's Shield This has been up in the Custom Apparel shop since basically Launch, but I wanted to wait until more of the recolors were approved before I shared the full poses.

Icerun!! We're #2!

Wolf base/Orrin logo are copyright Bashful Games. I drew the shield on top of it.

[img id] A set of 12 digital wolf drawings, each sporting a blue medieval shield on the shoulder. The shield has a spiraling snowflake-like logo in very pale pink on it. The shields are shiny and have steel borders. [/id]

My two starter wolves for Lorwolf: Verona and Dante! As leader of the Merry Marauder pack, Verona is a skilled fighter who carved out a home for her family with blood and determination. Dante is quiet and collected, very much the strategist behind many of Verona's plans. Together, they keep the pack strong.

@icerune asked: dan heng. now that i am a certified sword master i think we should spar. but i mean like . . . properly! don't go easy on me, i will bite your ankles and it WILL hurt !

unprompted asks ! | always accepting

Dan Heng closed his eyes and just asked his long deceased Aeon, Long, WHY HIM. He knew that THEY would not answer him, for THEY were deceased, had died millions upon millions of years before he was born. He'd declined to spar with Yanqing after the young retainer had finally come to see that he was on their side and not a criminal despite what the books and records had said before everything about his imprisonment and banishment had been revoked.

And now he was dealing with his "little sister" wanting the same thing. Truly, she was a chip off the old block when it came to her master Yanqing.

❝ As I told Yanqing, March, I have no want or desire to spar with someone. I have no wish to pass on my combat knowledge to another. I'm sure that Yanqing will be more than happy to spar with you though. ❞

@icerune asked: pay attention to me before i explode

"There are nicer ways of askin' f'er attention, sweetheart." he speaks so nonchalantly, too. His gaze never leaving the plant that he's working on pruning. Tail reaching up to sway the fluff of it near her as if she's a child needing entertainment for the moment. And for someone who's technically been alive for centuries? She may as well be. But then he's setting the pruning scissors down and looking over at her, a hand on his hip.

"Now that tha's taken care of. What c'n I do f'er ya, m'love?"

unprompted <3

I think I said that I wanted to fill my den only with WW that I find myself, but of course I'm a fool and looked on the market and fell in love with this WW. I've named her Char unless I can find a better name. She's larger and much heavier than all my other jocol wolves, a beefy Icerun gal.

Don’t think I’ll be doing #inktober, but I *have* been building DnD characters as a writing exercise recently. This is my Earth Genasi Rune Knight. He spent his whole life protecting a mountain (that he thought was his mother). On the day the mountain died, it revealed to him that he, and dozens of generations before him, were a prize won from his dao (genie) father centuries ago. Now he’s got no home, a furious vendetta against a deadbeat genie, and a big ole shield. . #dnd #characterdesign #procreate #genasi #runeknight #runes #icerune https://www.instagram.com/p/CjervL5O3MC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Emmeline couldn't do the rituals that she wanted to do at 𝖀𝖓𝖘𝖊𝖊𝖓 𝕬𝖗𝖙𝖘, it was too risky to do them with all of Blackwood's cronies around. At 𝕹𝖊𝖛𝖊𝖗𝖒𝖔𝖗𝖊, she had to still be careful, but there was less risk if she got caught. A ritual for Hekate. She needed healing after all that she'd been through and to find a love for magic again. She started the ritual with all the elements in place, lighting the fires with a simple 𝖎𝖓𝖈𝖊𝖓𝖉𝖎𝖆.

❝ Hekate omnia meae virtuti ac virtuti tuae dedico. Da potestatem pro meo immortali servitio tibi. ❞

Is what she kept repeating over and over again. After the witch felt a ᴅɪꜱᴛᴜʀʙᴀɴᴄᴇ in the atmosphere, in the area, she quietly stopped. Quickly locating the source of it, she cast a spell to appear behind him. ❝ Lanuae magikae. ❞ Looking at him from behind, she cocked her head to the side as she looked up at the ice-haired boy. ❝ I'm not sacrificing anyone, if that's what you're wondering. ❞

Sumac, Robin’s childhood friend.

[chknbzkt]

He’s been done for two weeks but I was holding him ransom for me to finish Roxy 😭 but here ya go!

I literally just based him off a more dexterous Kaprosuchus if that means anything 💀 those guys are dragons in their own right

I like the one on the bottom left the most <3

Stuff and things under the cut!

Tucked away from the cold up north in the Icerun, Scrimshaw Marsh gets its name from the abundance of ancient dead things (their skeletons specifically) peppered throughout and overgrown with rich plant life. These hallmarks of ages past make perfect hiding spots for big toothy things like our boy here to get the drop on the unwary.

Montgomery lives a life of rugged solitude, as while he’s certainly nothing to scoff at he is far from the only varmint prowling these muddy waters. As such, plenty of folks tend to steer clear of the far south of Scrimshaw altogether, as he and the rest of the bitey things frequent those waters more often than not.

Monty himself has amassed a reputation (knowing or otherwise) as an indiscriminate sinker of boats and a terror of villages who depend on the marsh for food and resources. That said, no one has ever truly laid eyes on him, as those he targets at what seems to be random never actually live to tell about it.

As such, more and more unrest and discontent among the locals is on the rise, as these attacks didn’t start until fairly recently and the rest of the wildlife was fairly well-behaved in comparison until this outlier started making a mess.

Which is to say, whether he’s aware of it, Monty here has a bounty on his head, he’s been labeled a “problem dragon” and all sorts of monster hunters can come forward and deal with him as they please, just so long as he doesn’t cause trouble for the locals any further.

Some are far less gracious than others.

That all said, I did say these attacks occurred at seemingly random… though some quieter folks whisper to those who will listen that they’ve seen eyes unlike the foreboding dim yellow of the shades, peering at them from the marshes on their way home with their haul in the evening hours, watching them, judging them…

They’d been caught out and away from the safety of their homes past sunset, and the shades that dwell in the muggy wetness of the mangroves and bones eagerly descended upon them.

For sure they would have vanished and their children left wondering what happened to them.

Instead the marshes, gone eerily, knowingly silent in anticipation of the harrowing fate of the unfortunate fishing couple, exploded with raucous splashes and uproarious thrashing.

Almost as soon as the fiercesome ruckus started, it was over. Another, more intense pair of eyes that seemed to glow with not malice but something else less antagonistic, continued to ogle them from the privacy of the reeds.

…and they made it home safe and sound as the piercing red lights sunk quietly into the marsh.

Call them old and foolish, perhaps there’s more to this mess than meets the eye.

Happy New Year, Lorfolk!

We're thrilled to kick off 2024 with a slew of new updates, including the Cooking Camp and Farming Festival weekly events and details about our inaugural seasonal event, showcasing the frosty battlefield of Icerun!

Icerun Seasonal Event

A winter's chill is in the air… the Icerun Seasonal event has begun!

Lore:

Rumours speak of a darkness that has touched the most desolate border of Icerun. Elders speak out, recounting old tales from their ancestors. Chaos, the malevolent force that once haunted Loria centuries ago, has resurfaced. No creature is free from his influence, and those that are too slow to escape become possessed, or as the lorwolves call them, "The Consumed." Rally your pack and join the Icerun fight against the first chaotic whispers that threaten to shake Loria to its core. Read about Icerun’s first encounter with The Consumed here.

How the Icerun Seasonal Event works:

During the entire month of January, players can earn Icerun Vouchers by completing various activities around the site. These Icerun Vouchers can be spent within the Icerun Seasonal Event Shop.

How to earn Icerun Vouchers:

Releasing Wolves

During this event, Icerun Vouchers are rewarded by releasing wolves to help fend off The Consumed along Icerun Borders. Icerun players will also earn double Icerun Seasonal Vouchers when releasing wolves. Go to any wolf page and click on the Tree symbol to release wolves.

Seasonal Activities

You can locate these Seasonal Activities on your Activity bar by selecting the switch button on the top right, as well as the Icerun Seasonal Page under the Play dropdown. Like daily Activities, more Seasonal Activities will appear on the taskbar after completion.

Battlepass

Completing the above Icerun Seasonal Activities will award points towards your seasonal Battlepass, level up your Battlepass to earn rewards and additional tickets. Note: players may have made some progress in the Seasonal event before release, so some seasonal activities may show as completed.

You can also unlock a premium version of the pass for 200,000 pebbles to unlock the Epic Frostbitten Winter Hunter Set. Optional copies can also be bought for Seasonal Vouchers.

Games

Icerun Arena: A PvE version of the site's regular Arena mini-game. Players can fight against 5 packs of The Consumed with no time limit between rounds. Stand above The Consumed and take 1st Place for 5 Seasonal Vouchers. Note: We are aware of the bug with the rewards showing the wrong typo placement rankings. This is a visual bug, however the rewards are correct.

Icerun Trials: A version of the Gauntlet mini-game where players fight consumed enemies. Reorganise your team between rounds to push yourself to the limits. This game differs from the original, however, in that beating and earning rewards for each round can only be done once per seasonal event. How far will you go this season?

New Companions have surfaced in Icerun!

The Crystalapins and Frostspinners have been spotted across Icerun. Collect these seasonal companions available for Seasonal Vouchers in the Icerun Seasonal Shop.

The Consumed are available to recruit

Are your lorwolves hopeful to aid, curious researchers or perhaps… agents of Chaos? No matter their interests, some of the Consumed Companions are willing to join your pack. You can find them available for Seasonal Vouchers in the Icerun Seasonal Shop. The question now is will you be able to resist the temptation of Chaos that they bring?

Seasonal Apparel

Grateful for your help on the Icerun border, Icerun locals have set up apparel to buy for Seasonal Vouchers. Keep warm with the Winter Hunt outfit sets and take a break to celebrate winter activities with a Snowwolf and Poinsettias.

As this is our very first seasonal event, we welcome any and all feedback on how it can be improved in the Suggestion Forums. We aim to continue building upon these seasonal events and site lore as time passes, with more new items and gameplay to enjoy.

Cooking

Our team was on vacation during the last Cooking Camp update. However, we were able to introduce a variety of new foods and recipes to cooking!

Players can now cook the following recipes:

Nori, Flaxseed Oil, Blond Flour, Sugar, Cream, Butter, Yoghurt, Cheese, Cashew Cheese, Banana Bread, Walnut Bread, Plain Bread, Rye Bread, Buttered Bread, Honey Rye Bread, Cinnamon Pretzel, Salted Pretzel, Settler's Panda Bun, Traveller's Panda Bun, Mika Pudding, Guppy Bites, Baked Potatoes, and Roasted Potatoes.

Farming

In addition to these new foods and recipes, the Farming Festival is also getting a few updates. Cotton, Leeks, Flax, Turnips, and Potatoes can now be farmed throughout Loria! Seeds for these new crops can be found in the Farming Festival Shop or occasionally in the Mole Market.

Lormusic

In other news, Lorwolf's first official soundtrack is out now! One of JimJim's favorite hobbies is creating music, so over the past year, he and Swell have thrown together a mix of songs to help bring Lorwolf to life. The album contains 14 short songs and is available in-game and on streaming services. The music player (seen at the bottom right of the game's window) can be used to listen to the music while you play. Additional songs are planned as unlockable content in future updates, so stay tuned. Check out our album on Spotify (Opens in new window or tab)!

Discord

In our continuous goal to strengthen and keep our communications and community-building efforts consistent to Lorfolk, we are sad to say that we have some difficult news to share with everyone - on Saturday, January 6th, we will be closing the official Lorwolf Discord server to the public. This was not an easy decision to make, nor one we take lightly, as we've enjoyed watching this community grow and flourish over the years, and Discord has always been a huge part of that. However, over the past few months, the server has outgrown our modest team's ability to manage it effectively. We understand that this news may be incredibly disappointing to some, and while we are deeply sorry for any negative feelings this may cause, we believe it is in the best interest of the development of the site and for our community moving forward. We hope this gives everyone enough time to wrap up any trades and conversations they may have within the server. While the Discord is closing, more focus will be assigned on keeping communications with our community onsite clear and open. With everyone in one place, we aim to foster a stronger bond between our staff, moderators and players.

Thank you all for your feedback across discussions, suggestion threads and Support Tickets. We look forward to the future of Loria hand in hand with our community.

Good luck on the Icerun borders, Lorfolk!
