Territory
map [source]
basilisk slopes the home of the tunglio pack, this is an outcropping of large stones and boulders that the tunglio make their homes in. the alpha's den is located at under a thin, jagged rock in the center so that they may also make announcements from atop the rock. everyone else has dens either on or under the surrounding rocks, although the elder and den mother's dens are located under the two largest ones for ease of access. they control the faerie woodlands up until the river.
graydown mines the stjornu reside within a long abandoned mine, whose creators they do not know, and have been using the passages immediately near the entrance as their dens with smaller tunnels dug into them to give those who don't want to sleep in the dog piles some space. the alphas make announcements on top of the mine shaft while their pack sits around in front of it. they control the land up until the bend in the willow weedrill river and crossroads, as well as the open space in between the ballari ridgeback mountains and the faerie woodlands and the mines.
crossroads the winter home of the sol pack, they have dens dug into the earth in a small meadow and tend to hold meetings, rather informally, in a clearing. they control the land south of the the crossroads and willow weedrill up until the kieri heights and the scourcone forest.
willow weedrill the summer home of the sol pack, they make soft nests in the grass a couple feet from the river banks and hold meetings in the same area. they control the land south of the the crossroads and willow weedrill up until the kieri heights and the scourcone forest.

haha nope. very few remember the tells of the old gods and those who do will receive a special message that outlines everything and will answer any questions you may have. this is both because i'm lazy and because i don't want a stjornu alpha or something going on about the lore when they aren't supposed to know it.
Packs
tunglio one of the three packs that resides between ballari ridgebacks, faerie woodlands, and scourcone forest. they occupy the basilisk slopes and are composed of northern jaro, southern jaro, and petite jaro, although mixes are accepted. they generally respect males more than females and are known for their loyalty to their pack, courageousness in the face of danger, and welcoming nature. they believe in the old gods as well as the spirits and it's generally taboo to even question their existence. their trade is mostly composed of leather and armor, the latter of which being their specialty and are known to be most interested in the stjornu's weaponry.
stjornu the stjornu pack is found in the graydown mines and are composed of only classic rifle, northern rifle, rifle royale, and vildmarkens terrier. they are the most gender equal pack with both males and females sharing an equal chance for positions, they are known for the command that they wield amongst both strangers and pack-mates alike, their cunning minds, and aggressive fighting techniques. they no longer believe in the gods, but tend to leave offerings for the spirits of their ancestors, more out of respect than superstition. they trade metals and weaponry. they tend to be attracted to shiny objects and prefer trading with the sol pack.
sol the final pack, they are more nomadic and travel in between the crossroads and willow weedrill river. they are composed of gazals, saudi gazals, and rehvas, although they tend to pick up travelers along the way. their ranks are nearly as equal as the stjornu's, although females tend to gain more respect. they are known to be independent, able to take care of themselves, adaptable to new environments, and wise beyond their years. because of the miss matched nature of their tribe they just allow the members to believe what they want. they pick up information and trinkets through their travels and tend to be interested in armor so that they don't grow cold in the winter.
Ranks
alpha[s] the leader or leaders of the pack, they are the main one(s) in control and set the laws of the pack. tunglio have only one alpha who gains their rank through dominance and determination. stjornu have a pair of alphas who are chosen for their wealth and intelligence. sol are led by their elders, unless they have chosen to opt out of the position, because of their wisdom and experience.
beta the second in command and future alpha, there is never more than one of them in a pack and they are training to be the next alpha by enforcing the law and organizing the daily patrols and hunts. the tunglio alpha keeps track of prospective trainees and decides whether one will become beta upon their ranking day. stjornu are picked out by the alphas once they've established themselves in the pack and demonstrate respectable leader qualities. sol's beta is simply a younger dog who can keep watch on everything, but won't be an alpha until they've become an elder.
gammas the general, adult, population of the pack. they get everything done and are divided into two sub-ranks based on their abilities.
• hunter the hunters are the food providers of the pack and must be able to work together easily. because a hunt usually consists of strikers, small, swift canines who make the initial attack and get the prey on the run, and chasers, larger, endurance built canines that keep up with the prey and wait for it to tire before taking it down, this class is usually more varied.
• patrol they are responsible for patrolling the borders and guarding the camp and/or pack members. they are normally medium to big dogs who work more independently and don't possess the same level of stamina and speed as the hunters, but are still rather strong. they keep borders marked and accompany alphas and betas on meeting and den mothers and elders on outings to ensure their safety.
trainees dogs in between six months and two years who have not yet been assigned a rank, but are too old to be considered a pup. they do not have assigned mentors, but are instead handed off between the hunters and patrols in order to learn what a takes to be in either rank. at one year the alpha decides whether they are better fit to be a hunter or a patrol and they will begin more specialized training and attend small hunts and border patrols respectively.
den mothers pregnant, or nursing females who can not perform their regular duties for the time being. there is usually a permanent den mother just in case one dies or does not wish to take care of her pups. tunglio generally have more den mothers as females are expected to bare pups. stjornu have more permanent den mothers as few like to be put out of action for long while sol is once again varied in between the two.
pups pups under six months who must stay within the camp, although a weekly outing just around the perimeter is usually allowed.
elders canines past their prime, they are either too old or injured to continue performing their duties and are treated with the utmost respect in their advanced age. their only job is to live out their days in comfort and possibly offer advice for the alpha. although story telling and crafting are also encouraged.
