”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.

:Rules:


  • All lioden Rules apply

  • No magic please, try to keep most parts of the RP realistic

  • Please do not discriminate other people or their characters OOC

  • you can have as many characters as you believe you can handle C:

  • First come first serve when it come to ranks, no arguing please

  • You can create a dog that is of a different breed from the team description, but please ask me and state the breed first.

  • Don't feel pressured to do/participate in anything you aren't comfortable with, AKA if you have a problem/issue/complaint/suggestion/ect. please tell me or someone that could help end it

  • Source you images!!!!!

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.

Hey there, could I potentially reserve a wheel dog for The Comets, team dog for the competition, a pet and a stray if those positions are still available? I want to read through all of the information and bios before making my forms so I probably wont get to it until sometime tomorrow if that's alright.

Hey Dez! xD Clicking on images will take you to their sources.



:Appearance:
Inferno is a powerfully built brute standing at 27 inches and weighing about 97 pounds. He has a thick, double coat russet colored pelt with white underfur/markings and light golden eyes. His ears are smaller in proportion to his head and Inferno is a rather heavy, muscular dog with a sturdy and formidable appearance. After the accident a long scar now stretches down over the left side of his face and over the eye socket, the eye itself now missing.

:Call Name:
Inferno.

:Show Name:
Red Fury.

:Age:
4 years old.

:Gender:
Male.

:Breed:
Alaskan Malamute.

:Sexuality:
Pansexual - Panromantic.

:Occupation:
Sled Dog.

:Team:
The Comets.

:Rank:
Wheel Dog.

:Harness Color:
Red.

:Bio:
Born and raised among a kennel well known for producing prize-winning sled dogs, namely Alaskan Malamutes and Siberian Huskies. From practically the moment they could walk Inferno and his siblings were taught how to pull a sled and work as a team. Once an appropriate age he was sold off to his musher, whom he'd been with ever since.

:Personality:
Being a wheel dog means Inferno needs to be both strong and focused enough on the task at hand...er, paw to get the job done, which he thankfully seems to excel at. He's a generally amiable fellow with a great deal of patience concerning others, but can prove a bit impulsive with his decisions when not hooked up to the sled. He's extremely protective of his owner and teammates, ready to drop the nice guy act and fly into offensive mode whenever necessary. He's a confident dog who takes pride in his skills, perhaps proving a bit egotistical.

:Strengths:
+ Friendly.
+ Loyal.
+ Physically strong.

:Weaknesses:
-Impulsive.
- Over confident.
- Not the fastest.

:Family/Relations:
Family: Open.
Friends: Open.
Rivals: Open.

:Crush/Mate:
None at the moment. Later will be Dijin {Played by ~Shiba-Keeba~)(Page 4).

:Other/Extra:
Theme Song: Phenomenon - Thousand Foot Krutch.

-----------------------------

397_1greenland_people_02_10.jpg

:Appearance:
A black and brown female with a white throat, chest, underbelly, legs and paws. Ikkuma stands at 20 inches and weighs about 65 pounds. Her ears are pointed and tail curled with a medium-length, thick coat. Her eyes are a blazing orange color earning her the name Ikkuma, which means fire in Inuit. She is well muscled and holds a lot of strength in that dainty frame. As well as being excellent sled dogs her breed are often also used for hunting Polar Bears and seals.

:Call Name:
Ikkuma.

:Show Name:
Fire in the Sky.

:Age:
3 years old.

:Gender:
Female.

:Breed:
Greenland Dog.

:Sexuality:
Bisexual - Biromantic.

:Occupation:
Sled Dog.

:Team:
The Competition.

:Rank:
Team Dog.

:Harness Color:
Orange.

:Bio:
Ikkuma was born on an Native American Indian reservation in Canada as a stray. She proved feral towards humans despite living among them and never joined any of the local dog packs, just managing to get by through scavenging and hunting her own prey. She was often used to being pushed around and bullied by other canines, nearly losing her life to one particular group of trouble-makers after getting mouthy with them. She was saved by a young man who managed to tame her and lived with him for a time. She had a late start to sled training, but seemed to excel in it. Eventually the man fell on hard times and had no choice but to sell his beloved dog which is how she ended up on the team. Feeling betrayed by her previous owner she was never very fond of her current master and just barely tolerated him.

:Personality:
Naturally mistrustful of strangers and rather aloof in demeanor, she usually prefers to stay away from other dogs. Ikkuma doesn't need them and she doubts any of them want her around either. Becoming part of a sled team has slowly warmed her to the other canines she works with, but she still holds a rather sharp tongue and short temper. Such traits don't help her make many friends. Current circumstances have only worsened Ikkuma's cynicism, but she's finding perhaps her teammates mean more to her than she initially would have thought.

:Strengths:
+ Agile and quick.
+ Intelligent.

:Weaknesses:
- Snarky.
- Detached.

:Family/Relations:
Friends: Open.
Family: Unknown.

:Mate/Crush:
None yet. Will most likely develop through roleplay.

:Other/Extra:
Theme Song: The Catalyst - Linkin Park.

:Appearance:
Tallikut is a large, wolfish canine with a predominately black pelt. A splash of white on the chest is the only other color to be found on his coat and his eyes are a bright golden. He is lean and muscular, but not much of a fighter.

:Call Name:
Tallikut.

:Show Name:
None.

:Age:
4 years old.

:Gender:
Male.

:Breed:
Alaskan Noble Companion Dog.

:Sexuality:
Demisexual - Biromantic.

:Occupation:
Pet.

:Team:
None.

:Rank:
None.

:Harness Color:
None.

:Bio:
The son of two beloved pets who made the mistake of venturing into the woods for an adventure with their only pup. Both were young and didn't really understand what it would mean to trespass on a wolf pack's territory. Whether they were foolish or naive might depend on who you asked. Both dogs were killed, but Tallikut was spared and taken in due to his youth. Being raised by the wolves who murdered your parents in front of you isn't exactly what one could call easy, but he managed to adjust. As a yearling he found he simply couldn't continue living as wolf and fled to Nocome. He might look like a wolf, but he is in every way a dog and knew in his heart he belonged with humans. Eventually he was picked up by a family in town and adapted to the life of a companion animal quite well.

:Personality:
A gentle brute. He proved early on among the wolf pack he wouldn't be useful as a warrior despite being quite a large dog and was planned to be placed as an omega before eventually discovering he had an affinity for healing, thus being chosen to be the pack healer. Even with a new job he never quite fit in and when he made the decision to leave the wolves did not stop him. His knowledge of healing plants and herbs remains and often leads to him going out of his way to try and help others.

:Strengths:
+ Kind.
+ Passive.
+ Resourceful.

:Weaknesses:
- Avoids conflict.
- Slightly socially awkward.
- Naive.

:Family/Relations:
Family: Deceased.
Friends: Open.

:Mate/crush:
None yet. Will most likely develop through roleplay.

:Other/Extra:
Theme Song: Pompeii - Bastille.

:Appearance:
I'm getting tired/lazy so just look at the picture please. :')

:Call Name:
Timber.

:Show Name:
None.

:Age:
5 years old.

:Gender:
Female.

:Breed:
American Alastain.

:Sexuality:
Bisexual - Biromantic.
Leans more towards other females.

:Occupation:
Stray.

:Team:
None.

:Rank:
None.

:Harness Color:
None.

:Bio:
Initially born to be a pet. The American Alastian is a recent breed developed to resemble the extinct Dire Wolf and is thus a bit on the rarer side. She was an expensive purchase for her owner, but Timber wasn't fond of a life indoors and had a tendency to bolt as soon as the front door was opened. After one such occasion she got lost and never returned home. Taken in by a pack of ferals, she rose up to the beta position by her third year. Unfortunately it didn't last and the pack dispersed after their leader contracted rabies and uninfected dogs had no choice but to flee or be bitten.

:Personality:
Easy-going for the most part. Unless she feels threatened you have nothing to fear from this large canine. She enjoys a good joke and tends to lean toward being a bit sarcastic. She often becomes melancholy and depressed when left alone for too long so often seeks out the company of other canines even if she claims she's perfectly fine with being alone. She's a bit of a flirt and especially has a habit of chasing after other females.

:Strengths:
+ Supes strong.
+ Agile for her size.
+ Humorous, but knows when it's time to get serious.

:Weaknesses:
- Can become aggressive over the slightest threat.
- Pushy/bossy. Will probably want to be the leader of any given group regardless of them already having one or not.
- Potentially overbearing. She doesn't always catch on to someone not wanting her attention or protection.

:Family/Relations:
Friends: Open.
Family: Open.

:Mate/crush:
Will most likely develop a crush on Diggy, played by |Honeybee| {Page 2}.

:Other/Extra
Theme Song: Count On Me - Default.

:Appearance:
Dijin is a slim, lithe, feminine brute with an angular build. He is all sharp, delicate angles and light curves that cause many to mistake him as a female husky. His fur is thick and soft with a dark agouti grey-blue color and a solid white underbelly, throat, chin, eyebrow dots, paws, and tail tip. His eyes are a dark navy blue color that get much lighter around his pupil and have black fur lining them like eyeliner. He has a few scars from skirmish with other dogs at rest stops, or during the night with strays who get too close to their camp. His oddest marking is the one that gives him his name, a white patch of fur like a handprint on his right cheek that branches to the right side of his neck. He is 21 inches at the shoulder and weighs around 39 lbs in total making him a smaller male husky as well.
:Call Name:
Dijin
Show Name:
The White Handprint
:Age:
3 years, 5 months
:Gender:
Brute
:Breed:
Siberian Husky
:Sexuality:
Homosexual + Homoromantic
:Occupation:
Sled Dog
:Team: (if sled dog)
The Competition
:Rank: (if sled dog)
Team Dog.
:Harness Color:
Black with gold colored trim
:Bio:
Dijin was born in the kennel of the team musher of the Competition sled dog team to a pure bred mother and father with good strong blood lines and beautiful coats. Both dogs boasted the agouti gene, his mother a grey-blue agouti and his father a black-grey agouti with varying shades of grey-white capes and black face masks. He was one of three in the litter, his sister having the common husky markings of black capping with white and his brother being a ruddier brown-red with white under fur. He got both the agouti gene from his parents and an odd marking of white on him which he was later named for. He lived happily with his mother and siblings till they were split too begin their training as sled dogs. It was then that the musher began to realize the aloof, mischievous, and devious nature of this husky. He would tangle the traces, disappear from the line-up, or fight the swing dogs for their positions. But once he was in the harness and lined up properly? He worked just as hard as any dog, loving the toil and trouble of the trail and every second of running. Dijin got along well with his siblings, joined at the hip as their musher used to say. But when his brother was sold, both dogs went into a slight depression and would often isolate themselves. It was the occurrence of the accident that made him more team orientated.
:Personality:
Dijin is aloof and independent, he is afraid of relaying on any other dog for fear of letting them and himself down. He is a protective brute, caring deeply for his family and friends to the point of defending them with his life. He has a lot of willpower and can be very opinionated; even if his anxiety tells him he’s wrong most of the time. Dijin is afraid of letting others that aren’t Harpy in, fearing that if they get too know him that they’ll leave him without a second glance. He can be a bit of a prankster and loves jokes so long as he’s not caught and has a set of hollow legs; capable of eating two whole salmons by himself without filling up. He has no problem isolating himself and tends to wander off by himself anyways, hiding and staying that way till line-up time in the morning. The toil and work of the trail is something he throws himself into whole heartedly and enjoys it with every fiber of his being.
:Strengths:
+Protective; He cares deeply for those close to him and losing them can hurt him greatly.
+ Spirited; He has a lot of spirit and willpower.
=Opinionated; He will voice his opinion on any subject, even if he isn’t sure of himself.
:Weaknesses:
-Aloof; He’s quick to isolate himself if he feels helpless, hindering, or extreme stress.
-Devious; He’s not above playing pranks on others like tangle tresses, stealing harnesses, or nabbing excess food.
-Unsure/Anxious; He is extremely unsure of himself and may doubt himself greatly, he becomes anxious around too many other dogs.
:Family/relations:
