<h2>The Lewis and Clark Competition</h2>
<p class="gen"><br>
This is a new idea for us here at Enigma. I'm thinking we should add in some sub-boards into some of the current roleplay areas. This will go along with the addition of the Cave of the Ancients once the boardwide plot is finished. <br><br>
But, for those of you who have a little extra imagination stored up there, this contest is for you.<br><br><br>
<b>Participation:</b><br>
All you need to do is reply to this thread with the "parent" area, the name of your proposed sub-area, and a description of the land.<br><br>
If you think you have a really great idea for a whole new territory, one that would stand on its own, go for it, but it better be good. ^^<Br><br>
The contest will end in exactly one week, so work quickly! We'll all vote on the entries once they are in.

THE VALLIX PACK

Valin Meadow- This area is plentiful with game. Many wolves bring their young out to play in the open area while others much rather be hunting. During the day deer can be found grazing and sometimes if you look through the grass hard enough you may find a little rabbit. Not many trees are in this area but there are some that give a cool spot to rest.

Carmier woods-

The Pearl Glades
On the far northern side of the carmier woods, there is a place of such remarkable beauty, that all troubles seem to melt away. Evening the pearly white depths of winter, when each branch of every tree, and every hibernating flower is sprinkled with snow, the place still shines with the beauty of a thousand stars. The Pearl Glade received its name from both its remarkable beauty and its frothy creek that twists its wayward way through the middle of the glade. It is a circle area, and the entrance is laced with trees and flowers and such. The area is decorated heavily in the spring and summer with flowers, so many flowers that the air is potent and hypnotic. The water always bubbled except in the winter, when it freezes. The wolves say the place is so beautiful it is where the fairy king proposed to his wife, for it was the only place that matched her grace. All who travel here love it

The Akari Mountain Range

The Ebony Coast

On the other side of the mountains lies a vast plain, more wide than long, and beyond the prairie resides the coast. The beaches are covered in velvet-soft black sands for as far as the eye can see, and dotted with small sparkling crystals of obsidian and black jet. The sand is warm beneath the paws, perhaps even hot, but not unbearably. Mangrove trees grow well in the salty ocean spray, covering much of the coast in sparse to dense mangrove forests. There is a small lagoon near the tip of the Akari range where the young of sea creatures can be found playing, filled with tall reeds and deep blue water. The water in the lagoon, however, is not as blue as that in the sea. Sparkling like a sapphire, it is rich with life. Kelp and sea weeds along the seafloor. Dolphins and manatees comeing up for breathin their travels or games. Shells a plenty to play with, and as many varieties of fish as their are colors in the world. The occassional bull shark is, of course, a major threat, but their visits are few and far between. It is a nice place to spend your afternoon lounging in the sun.

[doHTML]<b>Astiri Meadow</b> or <b>Carmier Wood</b><br>
-<br>
<b>The Four Rivers of Paradise</b><bR>
It is here that a vast number of wolves often make their homes, if only for the beauty of the place. Far at the end of the meadow and on the brink of the forest, this is a land between two worlds. For some inexplicable reason, the river, here at a strong point, splits into four nearly parallel, calmer sections. They sections don't last a mile before they return to their original one, but because they split, all the land is extremely fertile and the plants grow here in more abundance than anywhere else in all of Enigma.[/doHTML]

Carmier Wood

The Tree House
This particular spot is one that most any wolf is fond of, pup, adolescent, or adult. At first, the name may be misleading, but not once you visit the area. Here, some particularly girthy trees have fallen, making the forest floor their new home. Unfortunately fore the trees, the moisture has rotted out the insides of the trunks, while the outsides have been dried hard by the sun, and are now covered in a carpet of moss. The trunk intertwine forming a small maze of tunnels, entrances, and exits. Pups love to play here and it is a favorite quick getaway for adults who just need to relax.

Tashic Lake

Sky's Lane

A shimmering, rapid-flowing river leading into the Tashic Lake, Sky's Lane is a treacherous spot for any creature, wolf or otherwise. The riverbed is stony. The water is cold. The channel is deep, and a single slip-of-the-paw could cost a life. But its beauty matches the lake itself, and thus, many still haunt the banks of this river.



The Town

Central

Just named "Central", this area really is indeed the centre of the Town. It had once been a neatly-kept park, but now, what with years of neglect and abandonement, this place is overrun with plants and pests. An array of shrubbery and weeds have dominated all concrete-free areas; moss and algae cling to damp patches; mice and cockroaches creep along the footpaths. It's a miracle how the clogged-up fountain still manages to spew jets of water, especially when storms ravage the lands. It may not been sceneric, but the chaotic appearance offers a chance of survival for fugitives and wanderers.

This contest will be over at the end of the day tomorrow, Monday, April 28th.
