You open your eyes and find yourself in the middle of a forest laying on a thin layer of snow.

...Wait... Snow? Ah... That's right. You remember now.

You heard about a magical replenishing treasure box that also granted a wish to a single person each year.

You left your home and everyone you once knew in search of this treasure, unsure where it was or where you were heading.

During your travels you came across a ball of light that led you to a cave with gigantic double doors and beautiful engraving.

The doors opened to you so naturally you went in.

It was there that you were greeted by a mysterious maiden with silver hair, elegantly dressed, and seated on an ornate throne.

"Welcome," she told you. "I've been expecting you."

You were about to question her, but then you were surrounded by a blinding light.

"Good luck," she said as the floor gave away and you felt yourself start to float.

That's all you remember. Was it a dream?

You look around and nothing is familiar.

Finally, you stand and walk to the edge of the forest. In the distance you see a city at the base of a tall mountain.

Deciding that's the best place to start, you wander the city completely surprised!

There are species of all appearances, shapes, and sizes. What is this place?

"ID please," A guard asks you. You tell him you are new and don't have an ID.

He nods and directs you to the Faction Hall where you are forced to choose a faction. Each faction specializes in different combat styles. You wonder why you have to join one and ask Jenny at the Help Desk.

"They're the ones who are going to train you," she said irritably and rolled her eyes.

You wonder what they are training you for.

"For the Winter War of course!" she said, exasperated. "Look, You're here because of the treasure, right? Nirvina's Treasure Box? Well, look around, kid. You aren't the only one. So, to stay civil here, we hold a competition. In order to get that treasure you gotta train and fight for it.

"Now hurry up and choose your faction. Don't come back here unless you absolutely need me."

Experience our unique fighting system!
Winter Wars is the only group to utilize an "Action Roleplay" system that integrates literature and dice rolls into our roleplays. Nothing is certain and everything is left to chance.

Level your character to better the odds!
As your character levels, your attack and defense gets stronger.

Battle other members and attack creatures!
During our roleplays we may come across random creature encounters. Some creatures require a full group effort to fight.
Some contests require you to battle each other for the top prize.

Our group also includes contests, events, challenges, quests, shops, flash games, and animations.

Purchase weapons, armor, and housing.
You can create your own weapons and armor to level up.
If you purchase a house, you can decorate it yourself in our unique google.doc system.

Last but not least...

That's right ladies and gentlemen! Now, when you level your character I will also be keeping track of your EXP VISUALLY! You'll be able to see where your character is compared to your fellow members and how much you need to reach the next level!

On the bottom of the google doc you will also see some tabs labeled "MEMBER'S STATS" "FACTION POINTS" and "EXP BREAKDOWN." If you click on these tabs it will take you straight to these documents just like a regular excel spreadsheet. It's everything you need to know about your character in one convenient location!

Remember, the link to your character stats is on the front page under "EXP POINTS." Check it out!

EDIT YOUR HOME!

Now, when you purchase a house, you can edit your home in google.docs!
*TalonDragon000 Will create the document with your home and update it with any items you purchase in your inventory. Once you purchase an item, you can drag/drop/and move your item where ever and how ever you want!
All you need to do is send Talon a note with of your google.doc email address so she can add it to the list of people allowed to edit.
And that's it!
Have fun!

Keep in mind, Talon is keeping track of your item list. If you add items that you didn't purchase or create yourself to add to the housing gallery, she will delete them and send you a warning.

HOUSING ICONS

Our Housing shop has been decorated with images of the different housing options for your characters to choose from. Now, when you purchase and customize your house, you will have a pixelated image of it next to your name. Check it out!

FACTION UPDATE: CLASS PERKS AND RETIREMENT

That's right, ladies and gentlemen... and anthros.

We have just updated the Factions info page with brand new goodies: CLASS PERKS!
Now, when you join a certain faction, you are given a class and a special perk for your warrior. For example, if you join the Winter Wolves, you specialize in the "Warrior" class and automatically start with +2 OFF STATS. Visit the FACTION BLOG for more details.

You will also notice that our beloved Granny is no longer there and the sweet Polar Penguin faction has been removed.
Unfortunately, Granny decided it's finally time to retire. So, now you have 5 factions to choose from instead of 6.
Don't worry. Although she is no longer a faction founder, she will still be at her bakery store selling all sorts of sweets and goodies.

We will update everyone's member stats in FEBRUARY when faction requests and activity checks close.

If you have any questions about this, please contact us.
