”Mush”



Please don't be intimidated by the amount of words, we welcome you!

Welcome to Mush, an Rp based on the lives of sled dogs. I have been absent from many Rps lately, and frankly have been every inactive for the last month or so to be honest. All of my past rps have died out, I may try and restart some if possible… But recently I've been thinking of starting a new one, and figured it would be fun and get my mind off more stressful things xD. Sled dogs have been my “Thing” lately, and if you are into them as much as me I would hope you would find interest in joining this Rp =D.

The Storyline


In the freezing and barren place of Alaska there is a small town called Nocome (No-come) near a frozen lake that melts over the summer, but is still too cold for any human to swim in without falling ill or freezing. Recently, the town spokesman has invited any and all near by mushers to bring their best team to a 500 mile race. The trail stretches across many open snowy lands, snowy forests, and even a touch of green fields if the team is lucky. The track has several stopping points along the track for rest and food. Many mushers try to get there and leave as quickly as possible, without and delays. During the race, three of the mushers went neck and neck after racing out of the second inn. While pushing their dogs to do their best, the mushers hadn't realized that the ice and snow cliff they ran along was cracking. The ice collapsed and crushed all three mushers, much to the teams’ horror. All three teams, still hitched to their sleds, made desperate attempts to free themselves and their mushers, digging and clawing at the snow. Much to their dismay, it was no use. As the moon rose above the sky, the dogs dropped of exhaustion and grief. They were all fine, maybe a little bruised from the debris, but their mushers were gone for good… the next morning is when the Rp will pick up, let's see what happens. Will the teams keep their competitive nature with the other teams? Or will they bond together and make a full strong team? Will they make it back to the town? Or will they even get free from the sled? It's up to you now, finish the story. =D

Somemore info C=


Almost all sled dogs are born to their mushers, in their kennel. All mushers have their own traits they look for in a dog, whether it speed or sure footedness, they may differ drastically between mushers. All sled dogs live in the kennel for life, and are often taken out for training or just a good run once a day or so. All dogs have their own relationships with every other dog at the home kennel. Within Nocome, there are also many pet dogs, not used for sledding, more just for companionship. Other dogs include strays, strays are very common around the outskirts of Nocome. They came in all different breeds and sizes, though they are all breeds capable to survive in the freezing weathers of the area.

Sled dog titles


Lead dogs- One or two lead dogs are at the head of each team. They follow the musher’s command, find the trail, and set the pace for the team.
Swing dogs- Swing dogs follow the lead dogs. They help set the pace for the team and turn the sled around corners.
Team dogs- Team dogs provide the “horsepower” of the team and help turn the sled.
Wheel dogs- Wheel dogs are placed directly ahead of the sled and tend to be the strongest dogs on the team.

The Teams


The three teams that are in this disastrous situation are differed in many ways, its up to you to choose which team your character will participate in.
The Comets: This team is made up of Alaskan Malamutes. The musher and breeder of this team bred them for their strength and ambition to learn. Dogs of this team are large and powerful, always willing to learn from anyone, but they are sometimes considered stubborn and frustrating dogs. This team has two lead dogs, adding strength to the team.
The Competition: This team is made up of Siberian and Alaskan huskies. The musher and breeder of this team bred them for their speed and surefootedness. The dogs are intelligent and always ready for anything, never missing a beat. They are easy to work with, and very flexible personalities. This team has one lead dog.
The Storm: This team is made up of Greenland dogs and Canadian Eskimo dogs, a good mix. The musher and breeder of this team bred the dogs for their intelligence, swiftness, and ability to pace themselves. These dogs learn very quickly and have no trouble pacing themselves. Every dog takes it easy until the final stretch when the run their hearts out, leaving every other exhausted team behind them. This team has one lead dog.

“Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much.”Image and video hosting by TinyPic

:Call Name:
Alex (The team calls her Red)
:Show name:
See it to believe it.
:Age:
4.5 years
:Gender:
Fae
:Breed:
Siberian husky
:Sexuality:
Bisexual
:Occupation:
Sled dog
:Team:
The competition
:Rank:
Lead dog
Harness Color:
Blue
:Bio:
Alex was born to a black and white Brute and a white Fae at her musher’s kennel. All of her siblings were black and white, she was the only red. She never cared about her difference and never felt left out, she was an ambitious and curious pup. Always seeking adventure. She formed a particularly strong bond with one of her brothers, a completely white brute named Sten. When she grew old enough, Alex was taken out on her first run in a harness. She never knew what became of her other siblings. Not being strong enough to be a wheel dog, she began as a team dog, running and keeping pace with the team. She progressed and aged beautifully. She learned quickly and became respected by the team. Her elegant build granted her a position of a swing dog, she didn't perform there long before she became lead dog, leading the team with ease, never having trouble finding the trail. Her team respects her and trusts her to do the right thing. She would die for them if was given half the chance.
:Personality:
Alex is a very intelligent and understanding dog. She is also very outgoing and humorous, sarcasm is her thing. She feels strongly for her friends and team, she is protective. Red enjoys a good laugh, but in situations that call for serious leadership, she stands tall for her team. She wouldn't let anything come between her and her loved ones, and she makes that clear. Red is ambitious and always seeking to do better in her life. Being the lead dog, Red isn't afraid to show her dominance, but every dog know she really wouldn't hurt and team member, just warnings if needed. This can make her gullible, but with this she can also be underestimated, her warnings could go farther than expected if the need approaches. Red is a good actor and a good “On the spot-thinker”. She is witty and clever. Scrappy and agil, Red is resourceful and easily a great lead dog for The Competition.
:Strengths:
Clever- Red is a fast thinker and always comes up with something to say, or a solution to a problem, anything really.
Agile- Red is agile and light, making almost no impact on the snow. This allows her to “glide” over the snow without breaking the surface
Sure-footed- Red is always on beat with her team, pacing easily and making little to no mistakes or trips.
:Weaknesses:
Fighting- Red couldn't use her tooth and claw if her life depended on it, but she would try her heart out.
Easy to anger- Alex is easy to anger. Especially if you out-do her in a “name calling contest” She get frustrated if she can't do something right or if another dog annoys or overtakes her.
Blinded by love- Red would do anything for a loved one, friend, ect. which means if a dog gets on her good side, they could pretty much ask her for anything, and she wouldn't feel right saying no.

:Bio:
Blick was born to his musher’s kennel, son of the lead dog, Rory, and the swing dog, Princess. Rory, Blick’s father, had high hopes for Blick, sure that he would grow to become the next great lead dog. Blick had three sisters, all strong, they had good potential. Blick on the other hand, had been born the runt and took more friendship with his mother rather than his siblings. Blick consulted everything in his mother, she was his closest friend. She told him that if he at least tried his best, she was sure his father would be happy. Blick did the best he could in the following years, and tried his very hardest. But it just wasn't enough….Rory pushed Blick to his limits everyday, and one day Blick had had enough…..”I'm not perfect!” He growled impulsively. “I have worked as hard as I can for Years! And for what? For you to tell me that i'm still not the son you dreamed of!? Well i'm sorry, but i'm not ‘all that’! If you would just listen to me, for just a second!! I can’t do it...I can't be the greatest lead dog ever! You know, i don't even think i'm cut out to be one at all, maybe i'll just stick to Team dog...I’m sorry, i really am, but i'm not you...and i don't want to be.” Blick’s father was crushed, but he understood. He left Blick alone for years to come, Blick apologized for his impulsive behavior that day, but Blick’s father thanked him instead. “No. I want to thank you. I needed to know i was pushing you to hard. I only want you to be happy with yourself, I shouldn't let my life get in the way of yours.” They remained tight, as father and son, but Rory never pushed Blick beyond his limits again. They became closer and happy. Once Blick’s father retired from lead dog, he moved back into the kennel living out his life as a companion dog for the musher. Blick and his mother continued to be closed and his sisters are as happy as ever.
:Personality:
Blick grew into a smug sleddog. Sarcastic and flirtatious at some points. He is a bit on an introvert, but he doesn't let it show. He would do anything and more for his team, he is loyal and trustworthy. The brute would never interfere with someone else's life, he respects boundaries and doesn't set a paw in the wrong direction for the most part. He is a good listener and a very loving dog. Despite being flirtatious, he can also be know to be shy with love and relationships ina cute way C=. He is smart, charming, and also quite fast.
:Strengths:
Fast- Blick is speedy, able to outrun many other dogs, but he mostly keeps his skills to himself.
Strong- He is stronger than he looks, leaning into the harness when he runs more than just running with it.
A good listener- Blick is the best dog to talk to if you need to rant about something, or need a shoulder to cry on. He is very supportive and has a soft, calming voice when dealing with these kinds of occasions.
:Weaknesses:
Introvert- He sometimes needs a moment to himself, or just with one other dog. Which is a bit harder to get when being part of a sled team.

:Bio:
Darius was born to a woman who owned his parents. he had one sister, Shia, his father, Lucifer, and his mother, Fawn. The woman took Shia and Darius to a strange man who had many other dogs.

Shia was sold to a local town member who had come to the kennel asking for a calm yet playful puppy. Shia fit the description perfectly and she was taken to her knew home in the town. Being such a small town, the siblings saw each other daily, it was if they were never separated. Darius on the other hand was used as a sled dog for the musher. He began as a team dog, but as he got bigger, the musher noticed that he was a very large malamute, perfect for the Wheel dog. The brute took the position and thrived with it. He was a perfect fit, large and strong, having no trouble turning the sled directly around sharp corners, ect.
:Personality:
Darius is a big fluffy puppy. He is a big smile most of the time, but he has a reputation of being stubborn and frustrating. He can be snappy and come off as rude sometimes.

:Call Name:
Ivy
:Show name:
If only
:Age:
3.8 years
:Gender:
Fae
:Breed:
Siberian husky
:Sexuality:
She's not sure yet, doesn't like titles either.
:Occupation:
Stray
:Bio:
Ivy was born a pet of the town, a sweet and cheerful pup. Her mother and father were both very caring dogs, always there for her and her siblings. She grew particularly close with one of her brothers. When she became old enough to separate, she was given to a local family. Her household had two large humans along with their two young pups, both faes. Ivy was very happy with her family and thought that nothing could go wrong. But she was wrong. One night, the older male started to get sick and layed in bed most of the day. his pups would tend to him at his bed side everyday. One night, when the pups were asleep and everyone was safe, the brute woke up. he seemed, different, unconscious in his own eyes, not himself to Ivy. he took ivy roughly by the scruff and threw her into his truck, which was very unexpected, he had always been a sweet man to the family. Ivy yelped and whined, but it wasn't enough, the rest of the family never heard. The man took her far from the village, to the forest. He drove all over and off the road, disoriented. Ivy was terrified, she scratched at the windows and howled in terror, something was off with the man. The man ignored her crys and threw her from the car, in the middle of nowhere, far from the town. it scarred her for life, she vowed never to trust the townsfolk or get close to anyone as much as she did her old family. She lived in the wilderness not long before she began to struggle with survival. Ivy was on the brink of starvation when she met another dog. They gave her food and taught her how to survive on snow and ice. The two were friends for years before they split up. Ivy's close friend thought it better for her to live on her own from now on, a decision that they both now regret. With heavy hearts they went their separate ways, maybe some time they'll meet back up again.
:Personality:
Ivy is....well, slightly insecure if you will. She's tough to get close to, and her self-esteem isn't always her friend, but she manages with it. If you do manage to get close with her, you'll realize that she's very intelligent, clever, and fun to be around when she is enjoying herself. Ivy is a naturally reserved and quiet, keeping to herself and only trusting a handful of dogs with her emotions. She does need someone to talk to everyone and a while, and being a stray isn't going to help her out there. Her social skills aren't the best, but that doesn't mean she can't change, she just needs a little help along the way.
:Strengths:
Smart- Ivy is a intelligent and quick minded dog, always thinking on her toes.
fast- This husky is phanominally fast and accurate with her gaits
Survival- Ivy is skilled in hunting and defending herself, basic survival skills she has learned over the years.
:Weaknesses:
Insecure- She doubts herself severely.
socially akward- Ivy has trouble talking to other digs, even in casual conversations unless she is close friends with the dog and feels comfortable around them.

I have a breed question as well, could I use a Seppala Siberian as my Competition dog, they're a breed that's extremely similar to Siberian Huskies, just bred purely for working and not showing.
