The chorus of howling resonates off the surrounding mountains, rides along the lake's ripples, and swims through the air like several beautiful birds. It is a song of joy, of reverence, of life. Whether it be a jubilant celebration of new life, or a mournful commemoration of a life since passed, expect to hear the melodious harmony of canid voices against the mountain-formed wind.

Soon after the mountain wolves' song dies down, a new one arises, not in reply, but instead in common interest. A similar celebration takes place at the base of the trees, skipping over stones, splashing through the stream. Yips of young pups are audible through the wooden acoustics, accenting their elders' voices.


The Packs
Sunrise Pack- Current alpha is female; The pack lives on some hilly plains in the shadow of a mountain. There is a shallow lake below the camp. The dens are caves in large boulders or carved into the sides of the mountain facing the east. The highest dens on the mountainside are occupied by the higher ranked wolves and their mates. The ones closest to the lake (slightly damper and colder) and in the lowest rockfaces are occupied by the lower ranked wolves. The Nursery is located in the warmest, most accessible spot from the lake. All of the Apprentices sleep in one huge den and the Tenderfeet in another, both near the lake. Scouts stay the furthermost away from camp and closest to the borders.

Duskfall Pack- Current alpha is female; The pack lives in eye shot of the western side of the mountain. The westernmost point of the territory is dense forest and the easternmost point is flat plains. In the middle of the territory is wooded shrubland. The camp is located in the westernmost area of the shrublands, the dens are made in the bushes and dug under the roots of large trees. The select few that know how to climb trees live in them. A stream, fed by the nearby river, runs around the perimeter of camp and throughout the territory. Apprentices and Tenderfeet sleep in their own individual dens scattered around. The nursery is a large community den that sits just outside of camp; the entrance is shrouded by bushes. Scouts stay the furthermost away from camp and closest to the borders.
Pack Ranks

●Alpha (1) --- Male OR female, the leader; has the last say in every decision.
● Beta (1) --- Male OR female; second in command; advisor of Alpha and the one who is in charge of domestic decisions/debates within the pack.
●●●Epsilon --- Alpha's mate
●●●Upsilon --- Beta's mate
● Deltas (2) --- Young wolves next in line for alpha/beta; chosen as pups/young adols to lead after alpha/beta steps down - They posess no true status (i.e. - not above or below the Zeta), but they are still higher-classed wolves as they are most likely children of the higher-ups, especially the alpha or beta.
● Zeta (1) --- Commander (General) of the warriors; third in command; war general; fighting and battle strategy is his/her specialty.
● Kappa (1) --- Lead hunter; male or female; hunting and formation strategy is his/her specialty
● Nobles (2-8) --- 1-4 females, 1-4 males; no real duty/job. Hunt AND fight for the pack; mainly royal ambassadors in the place of the beta and alpha
● Royal Guards (2-5) --- Guards of the high class wolves' cubs.
● Apprentices (unlimited) --- Former Sigmas; 3-13 months old. Will become either royal guards or nobles; were not chosen to be deltas. Deltas are chosen at 6 months (1/2 year) of age.
● Sigmas (2 litters [1-4 pups per litter]) --- Cubs of upper class wolves. Deltas are chosen from these cubs unless there are VERY special circumstances; separated from the 'Juniors' - these wolves start training at 3 months old
~~~^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Higher Class ^ ^ ^ ^ ^~~~
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
~~~V V V V V Lower Class V V V V V~~~
● Preists/Priestesses --- Wolves with the uncanny ability to communicate with the gods and goddesses; the most difficult positions to aquire because they have to be born with the ability, it cannot be taught.
● Healer (1) --- Possesses sharp knowledge of herbs/medicines for healing packmates; not allowed to have pups or a mate unless given permission; if they are found to be guilty of this law, they are removed from their position or, in major circumstances, expelled from the pack altogether.
● Warriors (2-7) --- fighters; fight for pack safety; guard the pack
● Hunters (2-7) --- hunters; usually females or lanky/long-legged males
● Scouts (2-4) --- Scout out the herds for large hunts; spies; keep track of battles and report back to the captains of the battle/alpha-beta; messengers
● Tenderfeet (unlimited 'a tenderfoot') --- In training to become any lower rank. Former Juniors. 4-14 months old.
● Juniors (2 litters [1-4 pups per litter]) --- Cubs born to low ranks and are watched over by the omega; begin training at 4 months old
● Elders (2) --- Respected by the upper class and lower class alike; the wisest/oldest of the wolves (8-12 years)
● Omega (1) --- Lowest ranked wolf; eats last, watches the lower-class cubs while parents are away.

Extra Info

●Deltas continue their training inside of the pack until they are 16 months old and leave for a season and a half (typically during the summer) to train and learn how to lead a pack. They will have a month to touch up on their normal techniques, then spend a month with a noble to learn diplomacy and the beta to learn how to lead. After their training with their Noble and the Beta, a month is spent in the other packs meeting the other alphas, spending a few days getting to know the pack, etc.
● A wolf's gestational period is two months.

Name: Drogon

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Age: 4 years

Rank: Beta if avaliable, perhaps interested in Alpha's mate eventually?

Family / (EX)-Mates: His mother was named Maz and his father was Haka. He has various other siblings though none he is close with.

Strengths (2-3)and Weaknesses (2 min):
+ Intelligent
+ Physically strong
+ Highly Observant
~ Can be harsh/blunt
~ Hard-headed

Personality: Drogon is loyal to himself first, trusted others second, and considers dishonesty and mutiny unforgivable. He is level-headed, typically thinking everything through before acting out. His stubborn headedness does prevent him from backing down from dangerous situations where chances of success are very low unless it be someone with worthy authority. Failure is not an option for Drogon, and he will push himself mentally even when his physical body seems to be wearing down. Normally quite friendly, he can be very blunt and abrasive at times when warranted. Drogon is highly observant even when he appears to be bored or idle. He is a formidle opponent when angered but  does have a softer side hidden for special few.

Biography:  Drogon was raised to compete with his siblings. There was only room for the strong and those that were weak were treated harshly in hopes of toughening their demeanors. Not everyone survived that rigor but Drogon made it to adolescence as a fierce young male. He was trained for hunting and fighting alike, though his fighting skills often exceeded his speed in pursuit of prey. There are no tragedies or sob stories for him to dwell on or seek revenge over. He is simply a strong male with a passion for protection of the pack as well as providing a balance to everything and everyone.

Other: Sunfall

Description/Image: A thick black base coat covers most of Drogon's muscular build, though it is heavily streaked with silver-grey hairs throughout. Parts of his abdomen are almost white, though few are sure to ever see it in its entirety. Overall, he is visibly built for combat and strength instead of speed. Still, he is not terribly slow or clumsy and moves with surprising agility. Eyes of amber are often intimidating in their unwavering stare. His right ear has a large split in its front from an unfortunate tousle with a young cougar. Various scars cover his neck and chest, hidden by thick fur. Those on his forelegs are more visible in the shorter hair when in close quarters.

How should I RP him in? As a newcomer who will become Beta, or maybe that he has been on a long mission?

He can come back from a mission. Perhaps he went to find the lost Gem (Arielle's mate) and his brother Sky, but came back unsuccessful. He'll have to break the news to Arielle, so that could be a good first interaction.

Okay that sounds good. So any backstory to why Gem and Sky are lost that I should know?

Pretty much just that the person who plays them has been inactive for a while, but will eventually come back so we've considered them MIA for now. They went on a Noble mission.
