[OOC] Join the Pack: Dark Woods

[Twinklemoon]

Hello! Feel free to put down a CS in here! It'll be checked in time, so stick around. :)

Roles needed in a pack;

-- Leading Cast --

Alpha: The Alpha leads the pack and makes the laws. It hold the rights to every wolves in it's pack and can decide to exile or banish anyone at any time. It can be challenged, but pretty rarely as it would mean too much changes within the pack

Beta: The Beta is the second in command and enforces the law when the current alpha is not present. If both of the alpha die than the beta(s) take the alpha position and lead the pack, unless the alpha has said otherwise. This position cannot be challenged without the alpha approval.

-- Superior Cast --

Sentinels & Watchers : Normally 2 mated pair, one known as Sentinels and the other as Watchers. However, both are equal despite different names. They have been chose especially by the Alpha and Beta to replace them should anything happen, and are trained to do just such. Messing with them is messing with the Alpha or Beta and a sign of open rebellion against their choice. The title cannot be challenged.

Elders: The most aged, 7 years or more, and sage of the pack's wolves. Alphas often seek them for advice and guidance through difficult moments. They are the only ones Alphas openly submit themselves to.

Shadows: Shadows hold such a name because they serve in the shadow of either the Alpha or Beta. Loyal without a fault to their leader, Shadows are incredibly skilled warriors or hunters hand picked by the Alpha, or Beta, to choose under them directly. If they accept, their new title does not give them the right to give orders, but they cannot be given any by other than their direct master.

-- Middle Cast --

Lead Warrior: The lead warrior takes his/her orders directly from the alpha, and sometimes the beta. They are the main leader, general, or captain of the warriors in the pack. There is only one.

Warrior: The amount of warriors depends on the size of the pack. They are the guardians and protectors of the pack. The warriors will roam the pack lands ensuring it's safety. They are the ones that will keep watch at night. The warriors must be quick to think and remain calm in any given situation.

Lead Scout: The lead scout is the leader of the scouts.

Scouts: The scouts serve as an extension of the warriors. Less able in direct combat, they are more numerous and are often the ones roaming the Pack's land in the most distant parts.

Lead Hunter: The lead hunter is the one who leads the hunts. There is only one lead hunter. Whoever becomes a hunter must be quick to think as well.

Hunters: Like the warriors the amount of hunters depend on the size of the pack. Every member of the pack hunts, but these are considered the best ones.

-- Regular Cast --

Pup Watchers: These are the pup sitters of the pack. They will keep watch over the pups when the others may be out hunting or at battle. Don't be fooled into thinking that they are weak and soft. On the contrary the pup watchers can be the most vicious members of the pack, as long as you don't mess with their pups. They only watch pups up until the age of nine months. The pack does not need any more than 3 to a maximum.

Subordinates: These are the non-ranked members of the pack. They still participate in fighting and hunting, and can sometime help the Pup Watchers.

Pups: Self explanatory.

-- Lower Cast --

Omega: The omegas are the lowest of low in the pack, lower than the subordinates. Don't be surprised if they don't receive much respect if any at all. They are only placed in this position if they've done anything to disrespect the alpha. Sometimes a new member may be placed with this rank if the alpha is a bit mistrustful of them.

Name: Accalia ''Snowflake''
Gender: Adult
Age: 6

Power: Wind. Accalia can manipulate the wind around her body, making her able to run incredibly fast, jump incredibly higher than normal and strike with deadly precision.

Description:



Personality: Accalia is a calm, soothing wolf. It is very rare to see her get excited about anything, mainly because she has incredible composure. This wolf also has incredible wits when it come to situations needing it and is able to devise a plan in almost any kind of circumstances. Accalia is methodical not just in hunting, but in all aspects of life either it be when choosing a mate, asking something or striking down a prey. Despite the fact that it may make her look like a cold being, Accalia is also very gentle and kind when it comes to interacting with members of the pack, especially those she might appreciate more.

History: Accalia was born with, surprisingly, pure white fur. Her father's fur was a dark brown, and her mother's, close to black. It had been a shock to her parents who thought she was doomed from the start, for with such fur how could one hope to hunt without being spotted let it be in the day or in the night. As Accalia grew up, her parents were quick to discover she was in tune with the wind around her. It was something that happened more often than one could think, to see a pup with special talents, though it may disapear after growing up. In Accalia's case, like with some others, her talent remained and she learned to use it with great effect. Soon, the white wolf was able to jump to greater high than any other regular wolves. She also ran faster than both her parents, who were great hunters. Her mastery of the wind even allowed her to direct her body better, making her sharp fangs or claws hit with deadlier precision and devastating strength. Her parents were relieved that she had such incredible talent, for her future was now safe.

Just as her parents foretold, Accalia became a great hunter among the pack. Her powers allowed the wolf to be noticed by senpai by the pack and she soon was promoted to Lead Huntress. With her composure and wits she was able to devise great tactics for hunting down any kind of preys, and her powers allowed her to lead the hunt with great effectiveness.

-- --- -- --

Name: Styrke, literally ''Strength''
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

Power: Styrke is incredibly physically strong, but it is nothing supernatural. He grew up to be larger than most males and his restless training was what gave him such power.

Description:



Personality: Stoic. This word is enough to describe pretty much anything one need to know about Styrke. He endured any possible kind of pain, physical or emotional, life threw at him without showing any kind of weakness to others. Styrke speaks of strength, under all it's forms, as the single most important thing in life...and live his own accordingly. Styrke always push others to train hard and train himself even harder. Surprisingly, he does not enjoy the thrill of the hunt as much as many would think, but he rather enjoy the feel of battling a strong prey or even a fellow wolf gone rogue, as it happened before.

History: When Styrke came into this world, his mother was already dead from giving birth. His father, Strio, was a great warrior himself. Styrke was in the care of the Pup watchers, like all pups, but his father was bent on raising his progeny to be as fierce as himself and follow in his footstep after his death. Styrke was trained hard, and restlessly, to become the wolf he is now.

Eventually, Styrke's father perished during a hunt gone wrong where a rampaging bear tried to steal the fallen prey of the pack. Welcoming the challenge, Strio intervened and fought the animal, and won, but also received fatal wounds. The warrior was brought back to the den in hope of being saved, but it was too late. Styrke could, however, listen to his father's final words and these were what always pushed him forward ever since that day. He not only followed in his father footsteps, but did better. NOw the Beta of the pack, Styrke intend to use his position to better protect the pack from all threat by pushing the young to trust in their strength, so that the whole pack become one unstoppable force.

[oXShineXo]

Name: Aito
Gender: Female
Age: Young Adult
Power: (not required) Ability for her fur to change colors (or camouflage with her surroundings)
Personality: Aito is compassionate and cares for her pack, dearly. Before her fathers death, she had been a cheerful and curious wolf; however, to not go through that pain again, she makes herself unapproachable, by keeping her distance with respect. She is loyal to her pack and is willing to kill anyone or even die for the pack.
History: Aito had grown up with her parents in the Dark Woods pack throughout her entire life. Her father (Kao) was a shadow. One night, when their group was going out on their weekly mission, their group was attacked out of no where, leading to a brutal fight. Only one from their group survived the attack and explained what had happened to the rest of the pack.
Aito followed in her father's steps, becoming a shadow. She wants to bring vengeance for her father.
Father: Kao
Mother: Unknown
Rank/Position: Shadow
Pack: Dark Wood

She usually re-invents the way she acts after a while. She likes mysterious objects and loves to help change things drastically. If someone's very inaudible and doesn't usually speak, she wants to help them and be friends.

Father: Samuel

[Laggia]

Name: Tufang Bloodsnort
Gender: Male
Age: Adult wolf
Power: (not required) Incressed strenght with his bite, incressed speed at night.
Description: Black snort, blak fur with red eyes.
Personality: He says and acts as an cold, hating wolf in public but in private he is a careing and loving wolf that would probably say things that he wouldnt even dream off in public. Quite savage when it comes to hunting and fighting in general as he takes pleasure in seeing his prey suffer before they die, even the wolf he had killed he watched as it was howling if agony but he mostly only watches over the Pups from now on after an nasty event with him loosing the sight on the left eye

History: Having been born into the dark woods pack he grew up and taught how to live within the pact. Growing up along the other pups he saw them as nothing more than waste of time when it didn't come to hunting or killing others as he was not one for making friends or thats what his father said when he returned from hunting. His father Blood mouth had been a hunter since he had proven his srenght in breaking the neck on a deer without using that much force. His mother Watch bee were a Warrior within the pack with her incressed speed that would only happen doing the night which she cursed about here and there as it could had been usefull doing the day thats for sure.

[Twinklemoon]

Hello again guys. :) I know we have been waiting, but I will need to wait for the others to show up or new faces to come along before I can give a go to the IC! Hope you're okay with that?

[Laggia]

Sure im down with that. no bitching from me about it

[SomeoneSomewere]

Name: Duncan
Gender: male
Age: 5 years, 10 months
Power: mimicry. He can perfectly mimic every wolf that he has seen and heard, down to the voice.
Description: This is his original form. His body is heavily scared from the fights that he has been in, especially the one where the two other assassins at the time were killed.
Personality: Quiet and preferring to be almost always alone, he is very untrusting. He tends to trust only his fellow assassins and the alpha. The beta's aren't even on his list of trust. He dislikes crowded areas. He is always cautious, but not the point t extreme, he just doesn't trust situations. He is very stubborn however, but views his viewpoint to be the safest route to go.
History: Duncan was born the first, and the largest, of the litter. His markings greatly matched his fathers, and as soon as it was discovered that he had the powers of an assassin, his father began to train him. He was always a generally lonely wolf, but not as much as he is now. Once he reached the appropriate age, he was brought in to work as an assassin, with his father. He was working with them, when the group was attacked. He fought back, fighting as hard as the young wolf could. His father and the other male, Kao, who had a daughter who could also become an assassin, were killed after they killed as man had they could, before struck down. He always said they saved his life, without them he would be dead. Badly injured, he was left, presumed dead by the remaining wolf. He then crawled back to camp to inform everyone of what happened. Due to that, he became more withdrawn, and untrusting. Shortly afterwards, his mother died, simply giving up on living. He teaches the two new assassins all that he can, before he reaches the age of Elder, or he suffers a fate similar to Kao's and his father. He sees it as his duty to protect Aito, as her father protected him.
Father: deceased
Mother: deceased
Rank/Position: Assassin
Pack: dark woods pack

[oXShineXo]

^ There seemed to be no assassin on the list. So I changed it to a warrior.

[Twinklemoon]

Slight mistake on my part, actually. I changed Assassin for ''Shadows'', and put a new definition. I did not see what Assassin was originally supposed to be, so i made it something else.

@Someonesomewhere You might wanna change just the title of your wolf. :P

[oXShineXo]

Oh okay, I edited mine to shadows.

[XxLyraxX]

Azure has long snow white fur with blue swirls and accents running the length of her body. She has one sapphire blue eye and one violet eye. She is very small, even for a pup and not very strong. (Like this but with more blue patterns down her body and without the wings)

Azure

Female

4 months

Water/Ice manipulation

Azure is a very quiet and timid pup. She only talks a handful of times a day and doesn't really play much with the other pups. However, she is always full of curiosity that gets her into trouble more often than not. Azure startles easily and is terrified of thunderstorms and loud noises.

Azure was born to Coen(father) and Fetia(mother), both Omega wolfs. Her father was slain by another rogue wolf and her mother fled with her. They were kindly taken in by the Dark Woods pack but not too long afterwards, Fetia fell ill will an illness. She passed away a few moons later, leaving Azure parent-less.
Since her mothers death she has been withdrawn and prone to having nightmares at night.

[Tack the Cobbler]

Hey, can I join?

Lars, a Blundering Fool

Name: Lars
Gender: Male
Age: 2-3 years
Power: Fast reflexes
Personality: If he comes off as inexperienced, it's because he is. Excitable, friendly and optimistic, but not quite used to living life in the wild, and has given himself away to prey on multiple occasions. His saving grace is his alertness.
History: Escaped from a re-introductory program for endangered Mexican grey wolves at a young age, he wasn't used to having to fend for himself yet. After many failed attempts at hunting squirrels, he had resigned himself to starving--fortunately, he ran across the pack and followed them until he was adopted into it. He's improved greatly, but he's still learning how to properly compose himself in the wild. He knows he'll make a great hunter eventually.
Father: Unknown
Mother: Unknown
Rank/Position: Subordinate

[User]

Name: Charles Richardson
Gender: Male
Age: 5
Power: (not required) he has pinpoint sharp eye sight and sprays small embers when he barks and his fur has lines of fire their useless same as all his powers and were all suffered through fighting the alpha in his old pack.
Description:
Personality: TBR (im completely beat from the story that ive lost any ides for personality's. ill update when ive got an idea)
History: Charles had very different beginning to some of his counterparts, he was not born into the pack in fact he spent most of his time either avoiding them or trying to kill off their young. he was the member of a timberland pack and was highly ranked within their mist, to them he was the rank of Beta. he helped rule with an iron paw and was rumoured to be fair. but he soon realised that the alpha did nothing to help the running of the pack, instead he just sat there eating the best food, spoiling the things the hunters and scouts brought back and claiming ownership to all the women that were born here or taken back from different packs by the warriors. the people never minded though as Charles was seen as the 'go to guy' for everything under the sun, he had a small amount of power and respect amongst the pack ... but Charles wanted more power.
a few days later he hatched a plan, he was going to attack and challenge the alpha to a fight for position and power, he thought he would win as the alpha was just a fat old man who gorged himself of veal and rabbit.... he was wrong. Charles challenged the alpha male only to be laughed at, he got his fight but it was to be later.
fight day and the whole pack was out in force to witness this, they fought around a fire that had been alight for along as they could remember. when the fight started Charles went in feaicly biting the alphas foot as he went, the alpha roured in pain but re focussed himself. he went in fast hitting Charles in the side, he grabbed Charles by the scruff of the neck and threw him through the flames, Charles hot the flame pit and stopped, he looked around to see a burning inferno and to his dismay he was on fire long lines of fire striking down his back, yet they diddnt hurt or burn like any flame should. they were just there, it made him angry and as he was angry the flames that plaged his back grew in size, when he was less angry they died down. he forgot to breath and when he did he inhaled some embers, fire and ash. he walked out of the flame to see the alpha taunting him from the outside, his flames got bigger as he walked out the burning walls of hell and into the yard that may be his final resting place. he attacked again but he was ready, the alpha threw Charles over his shoulder into a tree, this tree was hanging over the side of a cliff, below the cliff were little ledges working there way down. the alpha walked up the tree and tried pushing him off. Charles barked at him and embers came out. SMACK! Charles was knocked off the branch onto a balcony below. he looked up to see the alpha peering over the lip "AND DON'T COME BACK!" and with that... he had lost his home.
(sorry if this is all wrong but i wanted a good reason to be a omega and if hes from a pack hat is known to attack you and he is know to be the ex-beta of said pack then he would be hated and given the lowest of the low ranks)
Father: Thomas Davidson
Mother: Unknown
Rank/Position: Omega
Pack: TimberLand Pack (he was exiled from that pack and is now at this pack hence why hes a omega)

Tack the Cobbler said
Hey, can I join?

Of course!

Also, did everyone read some of the new descriptions I put for the roles? Mainly I changed Scouts and Shadows, who were Assassins before. Also changed Sentinels, but just slightly.

[Laggia]

Well i did read the change but still hold to my pup watcher. Want to scare the pups shitless

[Twinklemoon]

Sure that's fine :)

I think it's safe to assume we got a good number of people. If any more want to join in and places are still open, I won't turn any away. Also, if you ever want to make another character feel free to go for it! On the same subject, if you get tired of yours and want to make it disappear one way or another to create a new one, talk to me about it and we can make something happen.

I was thinking up a plot for this roleplay, but i've come up with only some bribes of it in my head. If anyone want to discuss it, feel free to do so here! For the time being I will post my own characters in the first post and start up the IC some time tomorrow probably! Sounds good?

[oXShineXo]

Hey could you change my wolf to a shadow instead of a warrior? Thanks

[Twinklemoon]

Done, sorry about that. xD
