Leaders/Saisho-no
The Saisho-no are the individuals in command of one of the two divisions of The Land. Typically, the Saisho-no have ultimate authority over each unit and can and will run them as they see fit.

Second in Command/Fukushō
These individuals are required to provide support to the Saisho-no and carry out orders to their assigned units. They are also appointed by the Saisho-no to govern one or more of the ranks, which they are in a way required to be specialized in.

Yasashī
Yasashī is a mainly peaceful division, friendly, and a lot more merciful than the Shibō Kasai. For this, they are at times looked down upon by their rival and thought of as weak. While they aren't as brutal, they are very smart and fierce warriors.

Shibō Kasai
The Shibō Kasai are the more dangerous division of The Lands. They are mostly made up of viscous, highly trained warriors and hunters, whose harsh lifestyle and training contributes to their strength, fortitude, and brutality.

Gaikoku
Wolves who have recently arrived in the territory and may deem potential pack-mates. They are the new faces, freshly discovered, who either aren't quite yet officially apart of The Lands.

SAISHO-NO
₪ The Saisho-no are the individuals in command of The Lands. Typically, the Saisho-no have ultimate authority over each unit and can and will run them as they see fit. While Fukushō are responsible for being the head of the units, Saisho-no are the ones who advise on and sometimes tell the Fukushō what to do. In this respect, commanding Saisho-no have significant responsibilities, for example, the use of force, such as the Senshi or Shikei, welfare of those under their law.

CHIRYO-SHI
₪ Chiryō-shi are extremely skilled in the art of healing and engaged in general medical practice. They examine, diagnose, and treat patients who have been harmed. They apply medical knowledge and skills to the diagnosis, prevention, and management of injuries. They have many ways of actually healing their fellow pack-mates from their wounds, mostly through herbs and berries. They have their own little cavern inside the Mori Den, where they sleep, store herbs, and treat wounded or sick individuals. However, they are not just required to help others with physical wounds. Chiryō-shi are entitled to mentor and share with others on how to deal with mentally or emotional troubles as well, create a sense of balance for others, and generally provide guidance and direction for those in need. They specialize in helping others with their inner-most problems, and help find solutions. They are amazing secret keepers, as they know many, if not all, and have yet to tell a soul. They are skilled at mending wounds both physical and within.

ERUDAZU
₪ The Erudāzu are some of the most respected members of the pack, as while some may be tired and weak, they have or have had a life of experiences. This rank is essentially the state of being in the latter portion of one's life and being looked to for counseling in either a passive or active nature. It commonly involves a ceremonial investiture of some kind, and other times it does not, it really depends on the circumstances during the time. The rank involves a definite chronological or spiritual milestone which had been passed, while other times the required age is simply relative to the physical or mental state of the person in question.

SENSHI
₪ The Senshi are thick, strong, and lean wolves that protect and guard the pack. They are the main fighting force of the Lands and have the responsibility of challenging all trespassers, patrolling and defending the territory, and watching over the Mori Den. They have plentiful knowledge in heavy combat and are engaged or experienced in actual warfare. These individuals are the soldiers and sentinels of Lands.

SHIKEI
₪ The Shikei are the lithe, quick wolves of the Lands who can jump high to catch birds such as hawks or eagles, who are fast enough to snatch a rabbit, and are strong enough to take down a wild boar. Shikei are required to do only one thing: catch prey. They are the hunters of the pack, using a variety of traits such as stealth and surprise along with camouflage to catch their food. It is their responsibility to feed, especially for those nursing pups, and the young and old. They depend on speed, for there are limited places for a large predator to hide. Normally Shikei hunt in teams to take down the larger prey such as deer or mountain goats. A Senshi or two often accompany them to spot and take care of trouble that the Shikei might not be able to handle.

UBA
₪ These canines are ordinary individuals who are the members of neither unit or authority nor Erudāzu who are required to assist, and rarely, if ever, ascend in position. This is usually do to their lack of skill-sets that are required to become a part of any of the units, poor condition due to old age, because they have a trait that hinders their performance, or simply because they don't want to. Because they wouldn't be allowed to stay within the pack if they didn't do any work, they are required to aid units, take care of the pups, and very often run errands for the Chiryō-shi. The elders who are not in a severe enough condition to completely retire resign from their previous rank and take on their job as Uba. This way they have a lot more slack, but are still required to contribute to helping the Lands.

SHONEN
₪ The Shōnen rank includes both those who are not old enough to train, and the young canines already in training. They cannot leave the Mori Den without the permission of their mentor or another member of the pack. Apprentices are the older portion of the Shōnen who train with their mentors and work on learning the skills of what rank they plan to be in. They earn this title at the age of two months. While their agenda would usually say train, the tasks of these wolves include hunting, patrolling with other wolves of The Lands, and looking after the elders, mostly taking ticks out of their pelts. Apprentices can change their position as a Senshi, Shikei, or Chiryō-shi apprentice if they get permission. Pups are the younger canines that are not yet apprentices. They are too young to do apprentice duties, so they stay in the Nursery with their mother. Pups aren't allowed to ascend their ranking until they are two months old.

⇨IDENTIFICATION;; Aki Kobayashi. (bom·ee koe·ba·ya·she)
⇨KNOWN AS;; Bom.
⇨MONIKER;; Bo, Alien.
⇨HOURGLASS;; 2 ½ years old.
⇨GENDER;; Female.
⇨VOICE;; Iggy Azelea
⇨POSITION;; She is currently the Leader of Yasashī.


...THE REFLECTION;;


⇨HEIGHT;; 70 cm at the shoulder
⇨WEIGHT;; 66 lbs
⇨SPECIES;; Timber wolf
⇨COAT;; Her coat is not extremely thick, but it holds a wave that curls and sweeps across her canvas in a very whimsical manner. The canvas of such pelt consists a wide variety of shades and tones of ecru, cream, chestnut, and the darkest chocolate. The texture of her fur vividly darkens as it frames around her face, drips down the sides of her neck, and pours down her spine. The darker colors even out into the soft, pale hues of ecru and cream, painting her chest, sides, underbelly, and limbs. She is an elaborate mix of light and dark, the mirror almost seeming to reflect the things deeper within.
⇨EYE COLOR;; A particular shade of gold; sharp, clear, and expressive. Yellow blends around the edges, flecks of gold shining in just the right light. As the shades mix and swirl, closing in on the pupils, they heat up until they're a very soft amber hue, so faint, yet powerful enough to cause her irises to glow with it. Fire fills the many facets in her golden irises, and seem to mirror her mood in brightness. When she smiles, her eyes seem to glow, and it is that radiance that makes many who see it feel the irresistible urge to smile, too. This smiling of the eyes is the most sincere and pure emotion that she will show. If what she's feeling defied content, her eyes would retain a limp dull to them. Even then, they are filled with endless love. If one could say but four words to advise one on how to understand Bom, the four most reliable would be "the eyes never lie".
⇨BUILD;; Not particularly beautiful, pretty, cute, nothing like that; instead, she's more like too bony. Thick jaw, pointy snout, and eyes too deep-set and large, ears too big, and maw too narrow. Strange, angular, and just a bit whimsical. She does have a generally exotic beauty to her, a very different type of beauty. Her knife jaw, slender snout, and curly-textured fur, are all something she's known for. Another thing, she's quite lanky. She tries to hide it, evident in how she often curls into herself, shoulders hunched, caved in, as if that would make her more compact. She's painfully shy about this factor of her body. Without shielding herself, it's obvious she's had much more relaxing than exercising; her stomach is soft and squishy. She likes to convince herself it's merely the remaining adolescence she has yet to grow out of, and while that is partially the reason why, it has also to do with her laziness. Though she's not especially hard-muscled in the abdomen area, she has respectively powerful muscles under her hide. They are nowhere near apparent unless she's partaking in rigorous exercise, though she is most definitely not lacking, so to speak, in that criteria. Having some rudimentary hunting skills, she is definitely not weak, even with her clumsy mannerisms. She's mere bones and flesh, a big heap of protruding knobs, having a rather surprising amount on her frame. She has a pretty off balance, her walk faltering often, as she often trips and stumbles. It's quite easy to pinpoint body language when it comes to her, as she forgets to limit her responses to things a lot of the time.
⇨FRAGRANCE;; Bom has a very clean, floral smell that is dabbed with the natural saccharine of the wilderness. It opens with a gourmand accord of her homeland, the redolence of crushed mint leaves and a lingering scent of lavender, which combine and twirl together to add a velvet softness. The fragrances of wild flowers and rich green grass touches his fur ever-so-slightly, earthy and herbal but in the best way possible. These mix of different notes and scents give Bom a compelling warmth that makes her who she is.


...THE PERSON WITHIN;;


⇨PERSONALITY;;

Bom is eccentric. She does not usually abide by the rules that would otherwise dictate normal lupine behavior and, thus, is often found in heaps of trouble. It is her great persuasion, however, that gets her unstuck from these holes in the ground. With a few well-woven words, she is able to talk her way out of most of the messes she buries herself in. However, she does have neuroses problems. After a certain amount of persuasive speeches are stacked loosely on top of her and she supports them, just barely, for a while, she collapses. She crashes, and goes into periods of severe anxiety that are only fixed by heartfelt conversations. These heartfelt conversations, though, are the very stem of her trust issues because she constantly feels like she is being lied to, as a symptom of the anxiety. In her ind, everyone is lying to her. Everyone is out to get her. Nobody appreciates her; she is nothing in the grand scheme of things. She is nothing. It is that ghost that is imminent over her, and makes her more of an asocial individual. Despite her great ideas and creativity, she is bound by the concept of being useless to society.

While she usually makes her own rules, life without rules is an impossible idea for Bom to grasp. Rules are what support her and also what keep things in order; order is the only thing that Bom values in a work place. She is a total rule follower on the inside, and it is her own insecurity that causes her to disobey that trait -- she'd rather be rebellious and looked up to than nervous and judgmental. But those traits wouldn't change. Those traits were already founded within her and weren't about to change.

Thus, Bom is very professional. Once given a job, she carries it out. It her her sense of order that causes her to abide to any standards given. Even if it is something she is completely scared by or wouldn't usually attempt (i.e. making friends), if she was told by a higher-up to do so, she would. Her job is much more important than any achieved social status, which causes a lot of stress -- invisible stress, as she calls it. Stress that happens through her nervousness but is ignored and pushed to the side, where it piles up and begins the anxiety cycle. Her self management is not the best, but her personal image is the least of her concerns.

Because she is so versatile, she is often accidentally selfless. If distracted by a duty, she forgets to be her normal disgraceful, rude, unattractive self. When on a mission, she becomes polite and will do whatever it takes to get whatever she needs. It is perhaps an illusion, but often times she considers that self to be her regular persona and the other one to be her disgruntled, angry, bored self. This thought is perhaps what keeps her sane; believing that she is actually worth something on the inside.
