Wolf Pack OOC

[Shadeheart]

Alrighty, since apparently this idea of mine caught the interest of you guys, here's the OOC!

First off, Rules... I expect you guys to have read these, and abide by them, but most of it should be common sense.

1. Stick to the setting. And the plotline. Plot updates/discussions/edits will be posted in this thread as regularly as humanly possible so we will know where we are headed. Input is very much appreciated!!!

2. Read the posts ahead of you, don't just skim, and reply to what is going on. This should be common sense. This is a rp site, but people disregarding the posts before theirs has apparently become fairly common while I didn't have a comp or internet...

3. Respect both the other rpers and their characters. Characters are special to those who are writing them. This does not mean that you can't attack someone else, just that god-modding and other such things are not approved.

4. When possible, try to run what you post through some kind of spellcheck if you can. If you can't, no worries, it just makes things easier for us to read!

Ugh, now that that is over, on to more fun things!

Welcome to the Shadow Pack OOC!

The Shadow Pack was originally founded by a pair of wolves who escaped from a medical experiment facility into the wild. They found that, though they appeared similar to the native wolves of the area, they were not accepted. Neither wished to give up their freedom, so they learned to live in the Toxic Valley, a place rather inhospitable to any other creatures. Though the valley was small, it was rather secluded. Few Two-legs ever ventured close. The strange steaming pools held liquid that was deadly to most other creatures, and neither Rune nor his mate felt like they wanted to try their luck. Gradually as they learned how to live in this land filled with numerous dangers, others came to them. From both the medical facility and from the surrounding wolf packs. Gradually they began to build their strength others became envious, and wanted that strength for their own.

NOTE: Because there is no limit on who came from the medical experimental facility, odd appearances and such will not be vetoed. Just make sure that with every power you give your wolf, you also give them a weakness.


Because of the barrenness of the valley's land, Rune founded a system to teach the young how to survive in this new world.
All of the grown wolves were asked to choose one of groups:

Warriors, those who fight to protect those weaker than themselves and hold the territory of the Valley and the surrounding Hunting Grounds. They are generally very strong, and most have more bloodlust than their packmates.

Hunters, the lithe stalkers of the forest. They are in charge of bringing down prey enough to feed the entire pack. They are generally faster and more agile than the warriors, and have a very good sense of direction.

Medics, those who treat the injured. There is only one in the pack who does this job, and this wolf is not as interested in hunting or fighting, even as a Pup. They have a great sense of empathy and are greatly valued and protected by the pack. They usually have one or sometimes two Apprentices at a time. Becoming a Medic takes great time and disciplined, and not many are well suited for the task.

Alphas, there are only two Alphas, but they are not the only pair who has Pups. They oversee the pack and ultimately choose the direction in which they want it to go. They are fiercely loyal to those who put their trust in them, and protect their pack with unmatched viciousness. They also solve disputes as they arise, and oversee the beginning training of the Pups.

Apprentices, the young wolves in training to become full fledged members of the pack one day.

Elders, those who have given their youth to protect the pack, and provide for it. They are taken care of with pride.

Plot(11/9/12):
Rune can sense that not all is well. Something is changing. Tension is almost tangible in the air. Someone is coming. Someone who has many wolves behind them. He must prepare his pack to deal with the nearing threat, and protect those precious to him. (Unless someone has a burning desire to write the bad guy, I will, obviously....since I started this rp. Just thought I'd offer...)

Account Name: Shadeheart

Character Name: Rune Skywind

Age:Unknown

Powers: He has noticed that he doesn't seem to age along the same pace that others do. His Mate has the same strangeness. They believe that it is a result of what was done to them back at the White Walled Place. Rune can also harness the wind to increase his speed or volume of his voice. When he is fighting, the wind seems to create a whirlwind effect around him. He also blames this on the place he came from.

Appearance:He is a dark grey, almost black wolf with darker and lighter markings. Light grey circles around his eyes, and darker grey runs up his nose in a blaze that becomes a dorsal stripe that follows his spine down to the tip of his tail. His paws are three toned, all greys and blacks. His sharp eyes are two different colors, the left green, the right blue. He has many scars from his many scraps with his brother and other wolves that he has run across. He stands head and shoulders above normal wild wolves, and is taller than most genetically enhanced wolves from the Place as well.

History: (short version) Rune grew up in a Place with white walls and cage doors. The Two-legs would sometimes come and let him and his brothers and sisters out into the cage to play. But playtime always came with a price. They would take sharp things and stick them into his ruff and make his blood smell funny. As he grew, the needles became more frequent and the times playing with his siblings became non-existent. Most of them had not survived past the second round of shots. His brother, Kel, was the only other one who seemed to take the changes well. Rune didn't know what had changed at first. But as he learned to read, and found that the Two-legs were actually called Humans, he realized that he and his brother and any other animals in the White Walled Place were not safe. Anger built inside him until it burst out, toward the Humans. Finally he decided that they needed to get out of there, and he was going to make a way. One day he broke the door to his cage and got his brother out. Kel was happy to be free but had gone mad during his time in the cage. He turned on Rune, but managed to brake away and escape before his brother's rage killed him. During his escape, Rune found other wolves and freed them as well. Some followed him to safety, others followed Kel into the shadows of the city. Among those who followed him was his mate. In the trying times while they were trying to find a place to call home, the relationship between Rune and his Mate grew to being very solid. Once they found the Toxic Valley, they had a place to call home. Rune vowed to lead his pack well.

Account Name: Amethyst

Character Name: Luna Starswirl

Age: unknown

Powers: She doesn't seem to age like the other pack members, and she can communicate with spirits (more than the medics can, even)

Appearance: She has bright silver eyes , silver fur with a white muzzle and belly, and under the light of the full moon has stars swirled through her fur. She is much, much smaller than an average wolf, which she blames on The Place. When she is having a vision, her fur starts to glow.

History: She grew up in the White Walled place, when she was a pup she was allowed to play with the other wolves, including Rune. This playtime did have consequences, afterwords she was stuck with needles that made her feel extremely ill. As she grew, the playtime went away. They stuck her with more and more needles. She began hearing voices in her head, and having dreams of great councils of starry wolves, who warned her of impending destruction. She knew she had to escape, but she didn't know how. Rune busted her out, and she went with him to start a new pack. Her dreams and head-voices intensified when they escaped to the wild. Soon she was constantly having visions and voices in her head, which made her go a little crazy. Rune helped her through the craziness, and she learned how to control her ability so that she only received messages at certain times. She went on to help recruit other wolves to the pack.

Warriors

Account Name: Ginger Collie
Name: Kasolia (Pronounced Kass-o-lee-a) Although her friends may call her ‘Kass’ or ‘Kassy’.
Breed: Grey Wolf
Gender: Female
Eye Colour: Hazel
Voice: Strong and Feminine
Age: 2 Years 7 Months (Adult)
Position applying for within the pack: Warrior
Personality: Strong willed, determined and cunning are only a few of Kasolia’s characteristics. She is loyal and over protective of her friends but wary and downright aggressive to strangers. Her forceful nature may put people off her. Kasolia can be very impatient at times and likes others to obey her promptly. She tends to talk very bluntly if she isn’t in the right mood, even if it may hurt someone. Kasolia is not someone to be messed with and has next to no tolerance for disobedience. If she wants something, then she will do almost anything to get it, even if by force. Kasolia will not stand for being pushed around nor will she stand for being treated unfairly. If she doesn’t agree to something, then she will be the first to say so. Kasolia is a very up front person and tends to act before she thinks. She will only do as she is asked if she sees reason for it. After spending a year of her life as a warrior for Nakita, she does seem very aggressive in most things that she does. Her instincts will always tell her to kill, so others must be aware of this before trying to surprise her.
Although... despite her bad points, she can be a very pleasant dog to be around with once you’ve proven yourself worthy. She has a great amount of respect for those who can fight for others and who can stand up for what they believe in. For those for can prove themselves worthy for her friendship, then their friendship would be an extremely strong and loyal one. Kasolia would give her life for the safety of each and every member of her pack. She is also very good at hunting and likes to go out and catch a few animals to help the pack. If the pack needs food, she will be one of the first to help to get it.
Appearance: Kasolia is taller than most females, with long and slim legs, and a broad chest. Her coat is dense, with long fur covering her chest and shorter fur everywhere else. Her chest is dark brown with long fur which makes her look more feminine. At the back of her legs she has long brown tuffs and sway as she runs. She has a long, wolf like muzzle with a grey streak that starts at her forehead and ends at her nose. Her tail is long and thick. The rest of her body is a mixture of grey, brown, black and white colours. One of her ears stands on edge with the other one half flopped.

Her Father: http://www.flickr.com/photos/deheuvelroedel/6853315887/
Her Mother: http://www.flickr.com/photos/irishredpanda/3031261039/
History: Her mother, a great skilled fighter, was a warrior who served a female wolf named Nakita. She would steal food and kill others on the demand of her leader, not because she wanted to, but because she was frightened for her life.

One new moon, when she was out stalking the a pack, she met one of the pack’s fighters. Then and there, as they saw each other, they both knew exactly who one another were. Long lost lovers, rip apart by the evil Nakita. After seeing him again, she knew how it couldn’t be and left in fear of her lover being killed by her mistakes.


On the next new moon, the dog was waiting for her, love in his eyes. She tried to avoid him, for his sake. But the dog wouldn’t have any of it. Kasolia’s mother caved in and started to visit the dog more as the love became more and more stronger.

As the visits multiplied, one thing led to another and soon enough she was pregnant. After deciding to run away together, to keep both the males pack and themselves out of risk, they soon found an abandoned den to start a living in.

After Kasolia was born, with her five other litter mates, her mother and father’s life couldn’t have gotten any better. Although they knew such a trouble free life would never last.

As the months went by Kasolia’s mother and father taught her and her siblings all they knew about fighting. Her father, being a late fighter in pack, also knew a thing or two about fighting.

At the age of five months old, on a cold and windy new moon, Nakita‘s warriors came for them. After finding their den, Nakita had ordered them to be rid of her traitor and her family.

Seven tall, dark wolves arrived at their den that night to seek their leaders’ revenge. Kasolia’s father was standing outside their den, guarding it with his life. Her mother stayed inside, protecting her young. Her father fought a bloody battle as he tried protecting his family. Two of the seven warriors entered the den to seek out Kasolia’s mother. Once they found her, they attacked her with brutally force, hungry for stone cold blood. Kasolia and her litter mates stayed back, huddled together in a corner as they watch the two wolves rip apart their mother. Her mother had managed to kill one of the wolves, but was too weak to finish the other. The remaining wolf slaughtered their mother in front of them, laughing unmerciful all the way. Once the female was done with, the wolf turned to the pups.

Rage filled Kasolia to the brink as she saw her whole life being torn away. Such a wonderful life, gone in a matter of seconds.

Once the wolf was close enough, Kasolia leapt out at him, her heart full with anger. What happened next would be a mystery to everyone, but only her and her siblings would ever truly now.

All that was plain to see, was that now, Kasolia had blood on her hands as she looked down on the lifeless wolf’s body. At that moment, she didn’t know truly what had happened; just that anger had took over her.

She had looked her siblings in the eye, and told them to run as she stood there a few more moments before leaving too. As she got out of the den, she was snatched up by a big, black wolf. Three of the wolves had survived the battle between them and her father. She couldn’t quite see her father fully, only his blood that stained the once bright grass.

The blame fell on Kasolia as the wolves found the three dead bodies in the den. As her fur was stained in blood, it was quite obvious she had killed one of theres.

The remaining wolves decided to take her back to Nakita to decide on her fate but really they just wanted to see Kasolia get ripped apart by Nakita. Though before leaving, she saw out in the distance, the faint shadows of her litter mates, watching her with horror. Kasolia gave them a warning glance, which told them not to follow.

Once Nakita had heard what the young pup had done, Kasolia could see she was happy. There was no remorse for her loss in Nakita what so ever, in fact she was over the moon. At that moment, Kasolia knew that the female standing before her was nothing less than pure evil.

From that day forward she was forced to train as a warrior, with no way of escape. The wolves despised of her and made her life a living hell. Nakita had plans for her, those plans hidden from all. Though, Kasolia knew exactly what she was up to. She was going to use her against the tribes. Already with such skills, Nakita didn’t need to work as hard to make use of her. Kasolia was Nakita’s weapon.

Kasolia went through many different training, all brutal. They would work her till she was on the edge of death. They would force her to kill, frightening her of her life. Soon she became a blood thirsty killer, starting to forget about what had happened when she was a pup.

When she was asleep, one night, she had a flash back from her past, of when her parents got killed. That awful nightmare is what brought her back to reality and made her decide to run away. She ran and ran till she couldn’t run any longer. Since then,she had found herself a group of wolves who welcome her into their pack. She is very loyal to her pack, and wouldn’t let any of them come into danger. She has been in the pack for about one year and two months now. A long time for a wolf.

Character Bio:

Account Name:
Character Name: Raiju
Age: around 3 (He is an adult)
Powers: His body courses with electricity and so he can electrify his claws and his teeth as a weapon. This of course has it's weakness, he cannot go near water except from rain, rain does not affect him for some strange reason. While you may think he will be dirty from not being able to wash in water he is not. He can electrify the dirt off of his fur. His power also provides a light in the dark if he activates it.
Appearance: His fur is black par the blue streak that appears when his power activates, his fur is very scruff and messy not slicked down, a scar bears its mark over his right eye a result of the experimentation this also lights up when his power activates
History: Raiju can only remember the facility. And even then only parts of it. He remembers being taken there as a pup and being tested on. He remembers almost killing one of the people who made him have the cursed power. And he remembers escaping. He travelled alone for many days barely living on anything that wasn't small animals. All the packs had the better meat but he wasn't a part of any pack he wished he had never been taken to the facility but then he considered what may have happened if he was never taken to the facility. He may have grown up to be a normal wolf only to be killed and have his fur used as clothing. But now he had weapons and he considered killing the packs. He soon dismissed this after he realized there were many of them and one of him, even with a power he couldn't stand against more than a few. Eventually he did join a pack he thought he would have been happier. He hardly talks to the pack unless it's during a fight.

History: Alex's pack abandoned him when he was born because he was albino. He just laid there yelping trying to get someone's attention to help him. A mamma dog from a neighboring town heard him and raised him as her own, but left him in the woods to protect him from her owner. Once he was able to walk she taught him how to hunt and fend for himself. One day as she was leaving him, Alex followed her home. She didn't notice him and she made her way to the farm. She got slower the closer she got then her master called for her. She walked towards him and was thrown into a cage for dog fights and was killed. Alex went mad and jumped the cage to attack the dog who killed his mother. He ended up wining the fight without getting any of the dog's blood on him, but until after the fight when he stepped in a pool of it leaking from the dog's neck where he ripped it with his mouth. After this he ran away and found himself wandering into the Valley.
