Intro

Location: A Native American Indian Reserve in Northern Canada. -- Mid-Autumn.

Life on the reserve can be rough on a dog. Canines run free throughout the reserve, often left unbothered by humans. Unless you have an owner to take care of you or a pack to watch your back it’s every dog for him or herself out here. Lone strays are liable to get roughed up or even worse, murdered. With so many dogs competing for land and food it’s best to stay with a group for your own protection.

If that wasn’t bad enough, the woodlands on the outskirts of the reserve have been forever 'off limits' as the ferocious Wild Fangs laid claim to the area years ago. These hostile dogs are led by Silaluk, a cutthroat, ambitious Wolfdog and his adopted sister, a stern Ridgeback named Ashira The pair rules the pack with an iron paw, making sure that their beloved pack stays at the top of the food chain...

But now there's a new threat to the survival of both Rez dogs and the Wild Fangs alike, a vicious pack of wolves have invaded the territory, claiming more area of their own, and marking it with the blood of slain pups of the Wild Fangs. They are slowly pushing the militaristic pack more and more towards the reservation, where clashes with the local strays are certain. These wolves are even crueler than the Wild Fangs, making even these dogs cower in fear. Where the Wild Fangs are strict, they have a sense of justice, whereas the wolves only know power, bloodlust, and supremacy.

Can two groups of former enemies put aside their differences to push back against a common enemy, or will the dogs be forever fighting amongst themselves for any scraps they can get on the reservation?

RP plot originally created by NightSky01 (#52637). It was then handed over to Potatopaz, who has now given adminship of it to me. This 4th generation of the RP has quite a few differences from its original iteration though!

Co-Admin: Potato Lord - They are allowed all powers that I have, and any large plot ideas must be discussed with one of us, and we'll approve it.
Examples of large plot twists:
~ Creation of a new pack
~ Natural disasters
~ Basically anything else that would affect more than just a few dogs

Smol Mods
These are the humans I trust to help out with the thread and keep stuff running smoothly. They can ask you to change aspects of a character if it doesn't fit with the rp. They're also allowed to remind of the rules if they see them broken. If you are repeatedly breaking RP rules, you will be asked to leave the rp by either me or Potato.

Rules & Guidelines

1. No god modding, power playing, etc.
2. Lioden rules apply. Make sure you follow them.
3. This is a semi-literate to intermediate roleplay. Proper grammar and spelling is a must. If you repeatedly post less than a full paragraph (five sentences) you will be asked to leave. With that said, I’m not going to bite your head off over a few mistakes.
4. Fade to black when mating.
5. The most pups you can have at a time is four as long as you can get enough people to play them.
6. The Wild Fangs are the only established pack thus far. The rest must be created through RP. The requirement for forming a new pack is you must have at least five followers played by different people, and approval from a thread admin!
7. If your character becomes the Alpha dog PM me the name and ranks of your pack so I can post it on the pack information thread.
8. You can have four characters each to start with. If you want more PM me and ask.
9. There's a Limit on wolfdog characters. Don't get offended if I make you change it.
10. Ask the person before killing their character. You don't have to ask to attack another character so long as you do not fatally injure them or cause a serious wound without permission. (There's a chat post, use it.)
11. When it comes to fights always attempt, do not just go ahead and do it.
Good example: *Character* lunged for the rebellious brute, aiming to clamp his teeth around the dog’s throat.
Bad example: *Character* lunged at the rebellious brute, clamping down hard on his throat.
You need to give people a chance to react before automatically deciding what happens. With that said, you can’t dodge every move either. Keep things fair.
12. Let me know if you're going to be inactive for a bit. We all have a life off the computer, but it’s good to have some notice if at all possible. So long as you give me notice your characters will not be removed from the roleplay. (Please do, it's nice to know if someone's gonna be inactive for more than a few days.)
13. Put a joke of some sort in 'other' if you’ve read all the rules
14. You can swear but don't over-do it.
15. Your own characters can't mate/be in romantic relationships. It'll get boring fast. Friendships/Family bonds are totally fine.
16. Put: Name/Age/Sex/Breed/Pack(if you're part of one) at the top of each post. (All of these are required, feel free to add more though.)
17. Realistic characters. No powers or odd colors/markings. (Lightning bolts, heart-shaped spots, etc.)
18. Give everyone a chance to reply. Try and wait for 4+ people to respond, especially if you are roleplaying with multiple people. This will help eliminate 1x1 and hopefully keep anyone from being left behind. If it’s been a whole day and the person you are waiting for hasn’t replied you have permission to post again.
19. Each pack will have it’s own rules. Keep them in mind and be willing to accept the consequences if you break them.
20. Keep all ooc talk in the chat thread.
21. Hate the character, not the player.
22. PLEASE put all character's in one reply, unless you have more than 5 (Which shouldn't happen right off the bat. If you've been with Rez Dogs, and have more, you can reserve as many replies as you need for 5 charries per reply.)
23. CREDIT YOUR PICTURES. No, google isn't a valid citation.
