Rank Meanings - Goes For Both Packs
Alpha- The male leader of the pack. The mate is the Alphess. If the male is chosen before the female the mate is chosen by the male. If his mate dies he still remains Alpha and controls the pack. Until both first chosen alphas are dead and so are their children. If both alphas die and they have pups the eldest pup becomes the rank of his/her gender. If the pup has a mate the mate becomes Alpha or Alphess depending on the gender of them and their mate.
