Wolf's Realm II
NOTICE: The reason that this is called Wolf's Realm II is because I originally posted this under Casual Role-play. However, after role-playing for a while under this category, I realized that this was not what I was looking for. If you have migrated here from the original RP, please understand that you will have to start over with your character or a new character.
Overview: The idea of this role-play is to take a group of lone wolves and have them join together as a pack. Therefore, all characters must be wolves. This will be a semi-realistic role-play. If you are interested, read on.
General Rules:
1. I am both the OP (Original Poster) and the GM (Game Master). This means that, while I will normally not be overbearing about the direction of the role-play, it does mean that whatever I say goes. This should not be an issue as long as you follow the rules.
2. NO godmoding/godmodding/over-powered characters. NO exceptions.
3. All characters must be realistically built. This means that your wolf cannot have pink fur and sparkly blue eyes. If it would help, I would suggest looking up images or descriptions of real wolves to get an idea of what you can have.
4. For the sake of role-playing ease, all characters can speak. However, please remember that you are still playing as a wolf, and therefore, if you can get your point across in body language instead of words, I would suggest doing so. If your character does speak, please add body language along with the speech where you can.
5. Going along with the last rule, all wolves must have non-Human names. You cannot name your character Bob or John or Katy or Grace, or any other Human name. You also cannot name your character "pet" names. IE: Fluffy, Spot, etc. Try to be creative. I will allow names that have to do with nature. For example, my character's name is Aurora, after the natural event that occurs at night, the Aurora Borealis - the Northern Lights. If you would like to, you can name your character something to that effect. Other than these guidelines, name choice is up to you.
6. There will be absolutely no magic of any kind. Your character is a wolf. They cannot shapeshift or grow wings or anything of the sort. They are not telepathic, they cannot fly, they do not have super-strength. While role-playing, you cannot make events happen that could not logically happen in real life. If it is the middle of winter, you cannot suddenly describe your surroundings as being hot and humid. It cannot start suddenly raining stars. I think you all get the picture.
7. This is a role-playing site. You must come on and make a new post every once in a while. I understand that you all have lives outside of role-playing. Therefore, you each have 24 hours between each post before you are required to post a new one. Please understand that, for the sake of continuation, your character may or may not be "auto-piloted" while you are gone. If you know that you are not going to be able to make a post in the next 24 hours, please PM me AND make an OOC telling myself and your other fellow RPers that you will be gone longer than 24 hours, and we will make an attempt to work around that. If you do not make a new post in 24 hours, and have not told me so, your character will be kicked/deleted/removed from the RP or otherwise disposed of. This means that your character may be killed and eaten, mauled by an animal, etc. If this happens to you and you wish to continue RPing you will have to make a new character. NO exceptions.
8. It is up to you to keep an eye on these rules while playing. I will try and tell people if I make a new rule or if I edit an already existing rule.
Role-playing Rules
1. If you wish to join the role-play, you must make an OOC post asking permission to join. Along with this, you must make a general character description and request what rank of the pack you wish to be.
CHARACTER SHEET:
Character Name
Gender
Age
Physical Description
Personality
Requested Rank
Reason for why you want requested rank
(I AM THE ONE WHO DECIDES IN THE END WHAT RANK YOU ARE. PLEASE DON'T EVERYONE ASK TO BE ALPHA. THE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE PACK ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT, IF NOT MORE SO).

(Go to this link and use it as a reference. Yes, I know I'm using someone else's role-playing rank system. Anyone have a problem with that? No? Good).
2. Each post must be at least a paragraph (5 sentences) long. Yes, I know this is unusually short for Advanced Role-playing. This is why I put at least. If you want to make your posts huge-ass books, go ahead. However, I, as Game Master, do not even post that much, so feel free to stick with shorter posts if you like.
3. I will try to keep an updated list of who's who within the pack, as well as other events and such in the OOC posts section. It is your responsibility to check any new OOC posts.
THINGS TO EXPECT IN OOC POSTS:
Wolf/Character Ranks
Changes in Rules
(For role-playing sake) Season, weather conditions, etc. PLEASE KEEP THESE IN MIND WHILE RPing.
Okay, I think that about sums it up. If you have any questions, either post them in OOC or PM me.
