Rymm is an equine RPG with an emphasis on creativity. With a relaxed word count, we welcome role players of all levels, and focus on having fun, interactive and relaxed plots and characters. Instead of the normal 'lights v.s darks', or mortals being abused by gods, Rymm is an old fashioned role play of horses simply trying to thrive in the world around them. With no set plot, your character can rise (or sink!) to any level of greatness, wealth or fame. With the possibilities before you endless, are you ready to be submerged in the island of Rymm?

Hey there guys! A CHARACTER ACTIVITY CHECK is going on! You'll have 1 week to reply to it, but don't stress too much over it, your account is still going to remain perfectly safe! No accounts will be deleted, just characters who are not put on that list. Please take the time to respond, as it only takes a few seconds!
Thank you so much for all your support, and happy roleplaying!

The board is going into maintenance mode for a few hours, so please don't freak out! We'll be back online in a little bit. Just give me some time to clear out old threads, fix old links, ect. The board needs a good polishing! <3

Hey guys! Some very important changes have been made to the rules, and we have just put in place an official 'MATING SYSTEM!' This will allow characters to become official couples to receive some pretty cool benefits, one of which is being able to pick your foal's gender! In case you didn't see the PM, it's also been posted HERE, so please make sure you read it! Also, CHALLENGES MAY BE STARTED AGAIN! The shops however, are still closed. If you desperately need an item, just PM me and I will do the transaction for you!
Thank you all for your patience! <3

For those of you who haven't already noticed, all the shops are currently closed for 'renovations'! This site is still just a baby, and I'm still trying to figure out how to run things in the best way possible. I think our current shop system is too fragmented, so I'll be localizing it. Also, CHALLENGES MAY NOT BE STARTED. The ones we have currently going are fine, and will be judged as normal. But no more may be started until I have a chance to work in some new elements to the challenge system. It's nothing major, but something that I feel will make it much more fair. :) Happy roleplaying guys! <3


s t o r y

It only takes a small accident in the pattern of life to change the world. Many long generations ago two accidents were born, Arabian half brothers, each a dark bay. By a stroke of near impossible luck, these brothers were born with an extra gene, giving them impressive strength and a human level intelligence. Scientists quickly began to take interest in these rare specimens, testing and radiating the colts in hopes that this gene could be passed on. And it was. Their first few foals were ugly; weak and hairless creatures who were severely deformed, and hardly lived passed weaning. But as scientists further mutated the gene, the foals started stabilizing. Foals born with the gene not only inherited their fathers' intelligence and strength, but also began coming in impossible coat colors, any hue imaginable was now possible. For 10 years the brothers' new gene was perfected, until the world deemed them ready for mass breeding. But when the plane transporting these two priceless studs crashed into the middle of the Atlantic, all hopes were dashed, and the stallions left for dead. The island they crashed into had little equine life, but the brothers were welcomed warmly, and each became the respective King of North and South. The once small herds grew, and over the span of centuries began to form a jealousy of one another. The North claimed their genes to be far superior, while the South made the same claim. Eventually a war of supremacy broke out, ripping the land apart in a furious slaughter. Few Rymmians survived the massacre, but those who did vowed to never again allow such a tragedy to take place. And now, almost 300 years later, the natives of Rymm find themselves struggling to thrive when their very nature is their downfall. On our island, one must watch their steps and their back in order to survive...
Can you make it?

Colder in climate, and more rocky in terrain, the northern lands can be a paradise for sturdy herds. There are many low mountain ranges here, as well as many forests. Fir trees are the norm, and the grass is lush and thick in the summer months while wild flowers blanket the hills. During the winter months the snow is thick, but closer to the southern borders it isn't as extreme. There are two large lakes on either side of the land, and from those deep depths runs many clear rivers, crispy and clean with their stony bottoms. Shelter is abundant beneath trees, or in shallow caves in the rocky hillsides.


*this board contains the northern herd lands. royalty may request more herd lands to be made if needed.

The bones of ships, old and new alike, litter the shores here. This narrow strip of sand rises out of the shallows of the sea, just within walking distance of the East Cove. The water around the sandbar is deceptively shallow, making it all too easy for ships to crash into the waiting rocks below during the dark of night. Most foreign horses make their start here, lost and alone in the wild of Rymm.

*force claiming allowed here

The east cove is a beautiful place; crystal blue ocean backed up to an almost pearly sanded beach. Palm trees provide cool shade just a ways up the beach, its the perfect oasis for new beginnings. Many shipwrecked will come here, as well as herdless horses lonely and longing for new homes. So relax, the beach is for fun right?

Brilliance lake has its name for a reason. Here, in the heart of Rymm, the small blue lakes shines brightly, soaking up the sun and sparkling in a lovely display for all to enjoy. Horses of either territory may meet here, be they southern or northern. Many herds will come here in the heat of summer for the chance to roll and play in the cool waters, making many fond memories.

*for freelance meetings

Surrounded by a thick ring of forest and vegetation, this meadow is a perfect haven for horses seeking the company of one another. In the summer horses can enjoy the knee-high sweet-grass while keeping cool in the shade of the surrounding trees; and in winter the surrounding forest breaks the wind, giving foals a safe place to frolic and play in banks of snow. This is the perfect place for friends from different herds to come and swap gossip and share a few good laughs.

*force breeding allowed here

Wild twisting slopes make up up the western portion of Rymm, a green carpeted land built for high pace gallops and mock-fights. Small clusters of trees dot the landscape here and there, little covers of evergreens where horses can gather to take shelter. But the lands here aren't all fun and games, a horse must be tough to survive. In the winter there is precious little shelter, and most of the exposed grass quickly dies. Water holes are few and far between, and are bitterly fought over. This is not an ideal place for very young foals, or weak horses. However, if a stallion does not want to be part of an already ruled herd, he may stay here as a temporary home. But a word of warning to mares and little ones, there are no ruling forces here to keep you safe. Claiming may not occur in this land, but force breeding and foal killing may. If you want to wander into the land of untamed stallions, you'd better be good at sprinting uphill!

Branching off from the main Island of Rymm, this micro island isn't home to any herds, but is instead where Rymm inhabitants can come to pick up goods from the odd shopkeepers who reside here. But Ryska isn't all fun and games, this island plays host to more than one morbid secret. Keep your attention sharp, and be wary of where you place your hooves!

*this board contains all the shops. Roleplaying is allowed in all boards.

Warm and tropical, the southern lands are like an equine paradise. The sun always shines bright and hot, and even in the winter you rarely see snow. But be warned, the grass close to the coastal line is thin and salty, not the best for raising foals. Further inland the grass is short and lush, a vivid carpet of green that is just as pleasing to munch on as it is to admire. Palm trees are common here, and during the summer months their branches are heavy with sweet coconuts. The lands of the south are relatively flat, unlike their rocky northern counterparts. There are some hills, but there are no large mountains to boast of. Shelter here can be found in shallow dugouts in the hillsides, or in the stony grottoes along the coast.
