War of the Wolves [Roleplay Area]

[belloblossom]

Saffron | All-Around | Lightning | Location: Camp | Tagging: Grant (mentions: Lucas)

Saffron had been sleeping next to her mate since they became an official pair and no wolf could convince her out of it. She felt Grant move away from beside her and she raised her head, oblivious to Smoke's antics outside. It had gotten so frequent that it just fell under the realm of the usual pack background noise. She watched Grant leave without a word and then return with prey in his maw.

"Oh, you spoil me." She said with a smile and a teasing lilt in her voice. "I'm happy to eat this, but only if you share in it with me. As the finest warrior in the camp - I insist that you focus on keeping your strength up." She told him and moved over in their nest to make room for him to settle down. For a moment, she wondered if Lucas had had anything to eat? But he was a grown wolf now, one who could make his own decisions. She shouldn't mother him completely... as much as she might want to.

Lucas | Warrior | Lightning | Location: Camp (Prey Pile) | Tagging: Leo (mentions: Grant, Saffron)

Lucas, like many of the other wolves in the lighting pack, had woken up to the sound of Smoke's morning greeting. While it had been sung rather than shouted, Lucas still bent his ears backwards and considered the odds of her shouting again versus his likelihood of being able to go back to sleep before she did. He sighed. No, he really ought to get up and start the day. His parents would surely be up by now and he wanted to offer them a happy day before he got to work.

As he was padding out of the Warriors Den, all thoughts of his parents flew from his mind when he noticed what wolf was sitting at the prey pile. His mouth opened in a happy grin and he padded over to sit promptly beside Leo.
"Good morning, Leo!" He cooed. "Did you find anything good for breakfast?"

Storm | Hunter | Lightning | Location: Camp | Tagging: Toby (mentions: Smoke, Ambrose)

Storm flicked an ear.
"I imagine her attitude is getting to everyone. That recklessness has no place in two packs in midst of a war. I imagine she'll learn that soon enough, if Ambrose ever puts her on the front lines of a battle. If she survives it, perhaps she'll learn a thing or two about responsibility and wit." She remarked, unable to keep her thoughts to herself.

Speaking of Ambrose, she heard his voice reaching out to her and Toby and she turned. He was volunteering his brothers? What a unfortunate situation - to not have any free will in their day to day activities. Surely they could speak for themselves? But here she kept carefully quiet. Family disputes were not something she could speak on - having no family of her own. Pack matters were one thing, but family drama was quite another. She offered the Beta a respectful nod and then turned her attention back to Toby.

"By your leave, Lead Hunter Toby." She said with a small smile.

Toby | Lead Hunter | L-Pack | Tagging: Storm, Ambrose | Location: Camp


"She’s a good enough fighter in the field, purser energy to good use. I just wish she wouldn’t take out the leftovers on us." Then Ambrose was speaking. Two more Hunters to join them, just like that. Around here, nobody dared disobey either Alpha or Beta, and while Shadow had been silent that morning, Ambrose's orders were not to be questioned. Toby dipped his head respectfully. "Yessir. Will do." He glanced at Storm. "Actually, would you lead Alistair and Eurydice to the edge of the field? I’ll join you in a few moments, I have to first grab a Warrior to act as guard."

Toby had no issues with that. The past couple days had been peaceful, but they couldn’t afford to let their guard down, and while they were focused on the hunt, the Hunters themselves often had little awareness of anything but the prey right in front of them. He knew that.


Shadow | Alpha | L-Pack | Tagging: Ambrose | Location: Camp


Many wolves did not display this gesture of respect, and Shadow let it slide. She wasn't particularly strict when it came to manners, as long as everyone was doing their jobs and there was order, but admittedly, it was still nice to see the respect of a Pack member to his superior. Shadow was a large wolf, it was hard to look her in the eye anyway, but she couldn’t help but notice the unspoken gesture that was Ambrose watching her without meeting her eyes deliberately. She was distant from most of her Packmates, but this…this was nice.

"Well, I see the Hunters are setting out, and it looks like Karter's gathering a watch group. Hopefully he takes that little grey furred noisemaker with him." Her words were a slight insult to Smoke, but her tone was fond. "For now, would you check with the Healers and see if they need any help searching for herbs, or a guard during a search? There’s been a lot to do recently."


Grant | Warrior | L-Pack | Tagging: Saffron | Location: Camp


Grant couldn’t deny that he was soaking up the praise. He loved compliments…and they were always twice as encouraging coming from Saffron. They'd been young when they’d found each other, and Grant couldn’t imagine being without her now that she was a huge part of his life. He gently licked her cheek and settled down beside his mate.

"Of course," he agreed. They didn’t have to watch over Lucas 24/7 anymore now that he was fully trained and graduated, which allowed for more time for the two of them to relax together. To curl up and share a meal just like this. Oh the simple things in life that meant so much!


Leo | Warrior | L-Pack | Tagging: Lucas | Location: Camp


"Yeah!" Leo perked up at the sound of his friend's voice. "First I pulled out a fish or something, I think Fish put it there for some reason, but that’s not yummy, so I put it back. There’s rabbits instead! Wanna share?" He asked. He stared down at his rabbit. Decently sized, and he wasn't quite full grown yet, he wasn’t a huge wolf himself.

Terra/Healer/L-pack/Location: Healers den/Tagging: Rowan

She nodded "Yes, thank you" she says sitting down at the entrance

[belloblossom]

Enui | Beta | Fire | Location: Camp | Tagging: Max (mentions: Arian, Erle)

Enui had risen with the first light of dawn, a practice she'd kept since her first trainee days. Her diligence, eye for detail and desire for perfection had no doubt been the factors that earned her the rank of Beta, one she held with pride. The pride within her could be seen by the way she kept her fur immaculate and when she walked through the pride with her head held high, even when addressing other Leads or her Alpha. She was proud to be a Beta, but more than that, she was proud to be a Fire wolf.

She'd been sitting near the Alpha's Den, waiting for Max to emerge so he could discuss any plans he had for the day. Would they prioritize patrols or outright battle? She was well aware that their numbers had dwindled over the seasons, but the determined attitudes of the Fire pack would not subside just because of a change in reinforcements. They would just need to strategize more affectively. She glanced over at where their Lead Warrior, Arian, was emerging from her den. She'd admired the other she-wolf, as much as Enui could admire any challenger, but she also had an inkling of envy for the mottled she-wolf, for Arian had caught the attention...and perhaps even affection, of Erle. Erle was one one of the strongest warriors in the Fire Pack, perhaps second only to their Alpha. His strength and professionalism is what drew Enui's heart to him, but it was clear that it was a lost cause.

She only hoped that she would be able to spare herself any feelings of dismay when they undoubtedly became an official pair. Turning her gaze back to the Alpha's Den as Max emerged, she inclined her head towards him.
"Good morning, my Alpha. Did you rest well?" She greeted him cordially.

Apollo/ Male/ Fire Pack/ Hunter Trainee/ tags: open
Apollo had planned a prank last night, at a late hour. He had hidden a tripwire at the camp entrance. When someone left or came back in, they'd trip and fall. He was waiting in the trainee den for someone to fall for his prank. He was holding in a laugh as he heard there was a patrol going out.

Oak/ Male/ Lightning/ Lead Warrior/ Tags: Karter, Axis
"Thank you Karter, next time wait for me to announce the patrols or I tell you you can organize the patrols ok?" He tells Karter as he walks over. "Yes, as Karter said, we will be going on morning patrol soon, come here if you want to join" He says. "Thank you Axis" He says to the warrior who just joined them.

Axis/ Male/ Lightning/ Warrior/ Tags: Karter, Oak
Axis woke up to a very loud voice. Who decided to wake everyone up at this hour?, He though. He walked out to see what the commotion was about. So it was Karter who was making all that racket. "I'll come with" He says grumbling, "But next time could you not wake the whole pack up at the brink of dawn?" He grumbled.

Basil/ Female/ Lightning/ hunter (Traitor)/ tags: Smoke
Basil woke up and was ready to go. She spotted her fellow packmate and friend, Smoke. "Hey! What's up girl? You wanna go on an adventure?" She asks excitedly.

Kiwi/ Female/ Fire/ Warrior Trainee/ Tags: open
Kiwi was up and about in the morning. She wondered if her mentor, Erle was up. She decided to go see if he was up yet. She walked over to the Warrior's den and peeked in. "Erle? you in there?" She whispered quietly as if not to wake those who were still sleeping.

Kotori/ Male/ Lightning/ Healer Trainee/ Tags: open
Kotori was woken up by a nightmare. "No!" He screamed, waking himself up. "It was just a dream... not real" He murmured to himself, trying to assure himself that it wasn't real. He got to his paws shakily. He put a mask of calmness on his face and went to see if his fellow trainee or if his mentor were up yet.

Hati/ Male/ Fire/ Lead hunter/ Tags: open
Hati decided to organize a hunting patrol once many of the wolves were up. " Attention all hunters, We are going on the morning hunting patrol soon. We will be going to head out in an hour so be prepared" He said.

Ravn/ Male/ Fire/ Hunter/ Tags: open
Ravn woke up to the blaring sun. It's so hot He complained in his mind. He sighed and got to his paws. He padded out and into camp. He saw that many were already up. He decided to avoid them all and sit in the shade, where it was cooler.

Mercy/ Male/ Fire/ Hunter/ Tags: group in camp
Mercy was up as everyone else was. He padded out into camp. He was quite timid and didn't like suprises. "Morning!" He said cheerfully to the group gathered there.

[StormDragon55]

Terra/Healer/L-pack/Location: Healers den/Tagging: Kotori

She jumped as she heard her other Trainee screamed out, she quickly got up and trotted over to Kotori "are you okay!?" She asks extremely concerned

[.ludicrous.]

[Ambrose // Lightning Beta // Tagging: Shadow, Healers // Location: Camp]
He nodded to Shadow agreeably. "It'll be nice to see Terra and Kotori, and when I'm finished I'll return to you." He made an effort to be efficient, dipping his head low and walking off at a relaxed pace. The smell of herbs hit him like a wall, and he stopped to scrunch his nose and try to shake it off before entering the healers' den. "Anyone need anything in here?" He called out, scanning the dens' inhabitants and feeling a surge of relief when he saw no sickly wolves among the healers, but that dropped when he heard a scream, and rushed over beside Terra to the trainee. "What happened?"

[Aristaeus, Alistair, Eurydice & Leander // Hunters // Tagging: Kin, Toby, Storm // Location: Camp] ​
It was a bit chaotic for them to get on their feet- somehow while in slumber they had tangled together like earbud wires and more than one of the brothers' snouts were kicked in the flurry of activity. Hearing themselves offered into the hunting party a chorus of groans sounded but they complacently shuffled toward Toby, blinking sleep out of their eyes. Eurydice pushed Alistair around their shoulder to coax him to walk behind him, Leander approching Storm pleasantly and Aristaeus looked to Smoke slightly begrudgingly, Eurydice leaving Alistair's side to follow behind." So what are we aiming for today?"

Autumn| She | Hunter | Fire| Location: Camp | Tagging: Arian (Mentions: Bones, Apollo, and Hati)

Autumn stretched as she left the den, sighing at the already hot summer air. She saw Arian across the way and trotted up to her sister, sitting down beside her. "Good morning Arian!" She said brightly, despite the uncomfortable weather, "Looks like most of the pack is having a slow morning. I can't really blame them, it's so hot out! I hate the summer." She glanced toward the prey pile as well, noticing it's growing low. From there she looked toward the trainee's dens, perhaps they should take Apollo and Bones along with them this morning.
At this she heard her lead hunter's voice and nodded at the announcement.
